            does this phone has the voice command/voice dial feature? what is the meaning of voice dialing? does it mean that if I say to dial anyone pronunciating his name, the phone will dial him? Please tell me friends, I am completely unaware of this feature. thank you

              I have heard that using a screen protector makes the screen less responsive and drains the battery quicker. Is this true?

              Also as the screen is excellent in sunlight would a screen protector have more reflexion? maybe an antiglare one would be good?

                    Samsung wave have scratch resistant for screen but finger print resistant dont think so, dont use sharp thing on ur phone surface should be no problem. But if always put inside pocket then still got the risk to scratch the screen, so i applied SP for it. For case, dont have official case at the moment, but for others can easily get from ebay.

                          Some people sat to use a screen protector and others say not to. Have heard the screen is scratch resistant and fingerprint resistant so maybe better without a protector

                                      I just noticed a rather curious thing, while Googling for "Samsung Wave RAM" does indeed yeild a plethora of sites that list 512 MB RAM, none of them are Samsung's.

                                      NOw 512 MB and 1 GHz processors are the top of the notch performance parameters available in Cells today and every company worth its salt touts them, if their cell phone models do have them. Apple does it for iPhone, Samsung does it for Galaxy.

                                      But not for Wave. Hence my belief that RAM may not be 512 MB in Wave. Not that it has bothered the performance till now. But still till Samsung let's the cat out of the bag or some one takes apart a Wave like they take apart a iPhone, it would not be easy to confirm the RAM.

Though I can personally vouch for Wave's sound quality to be phenomenal. :)

                                        As for the overall thing, it really is a matter of taste, preference, money. Here Galaxy S costs 10k more than Wa
