I just purchased wave 2 yesterday. I have an iPhone 4 for 4 month ago and I am happy with it. Here now my comments on wave2

1. The worst app store compare with the others.
2. Parlingo for bada is stupid with no msn support compare with the iPhone.
3. YouTube in very bad quality in pic and sound.
4. Stupid web browser even if you compare with symbian.
5. I feel I through my money in the trash.
6. Only the good things are the screen brightness and respone not in the web browser

Sorry samsung bada is for 10 years old boy not for me.

    can we change the 3 homescreen's shortcut, lets say become 4 or 2 or completely remove it?
    3 shortcut looks like wasting space of the screen..

        Is there any app available for editing MS office documents for this phone. A smart phone with out editing option is not very useful.

              Bought Wave 2. previously i was using wave 8500. To say music quality is not so good in wave 2. Bass effect is not there. ONe more thing, in wave 1 we can adjust the volume in internal settings. Here options are there, but if you change the volume db, they do not change. You should be satisfied with the default volume given. 2nd thing, the camera. Camera stills taken in wave 1 is quiet natural, but here in wave2 i find it is more bright. Screen in wave 2 is big and good for watching videos. If i can give score for the same wave 1 will fetch 100 marks, but wave 2 will get only 75 marks. So if you have wave 1 think twick before selling the same

                Anonymous, 15 Jan 2011hey guys is this phone worth taking and please suggest any ... moreNokia is a tough competitor in every price range. You can check out Nokia's C7 or the soon-to-be available C6-01. You will get better camera (8MP), USB-on-the-go (i.e. pendrive reader) support, every connectivity option available and a Nokia handset in your hand. With C7 you also get FM transmitter.

                        atul, 14 Jan 2011thnx mahesh :) i think we need to buy micro sdHC NOT simpl... moreActually there's no diff between SD and SDHC.'HC' stands for 'High Capacity'.And Micro SD,which is 4gb or higher in Capacity,is 'HC' compliant.Just the terminology used is different.you will get Sandisk 16gb SDHC for INR 1400-1500 approx.
