Kean

you mentioned the screen is very nice.. yet I have tested 1 and found it to be yellowish and dull.. comparing it with E530, the screen is inferior.. even the video recording is worse than E530.
Maybe I saw a faulty unit?

    I'm not sure if it supports 512mb because I only have a 256mb. The manual did not mention anything about this.

      I have not tried EDGE because I don't have a digi line. Anyway, my friend has a digi line and he has tried it in my area before using a Nokia phone but the connection was worse than my 56k dialup. My area is known to have very bad reception.

      Its quite strange now that you mentioned it. The foreign manual that I downloaded mentioned EDGE but the manual I have does did not mention anything about the EDGE at all. The net version of the manual mentioned the presence of an E icon on the screen if you have an EDGE connection. But this is not mentioned at all in the local manual.

      I asked the sales guy about the EDGE feature and he told me its there. Did you see an E icon on-screen when you got connected? If you don't see it, then Samsung will need to explain why!!!

              Ooops, what I meant to say about point no.4 was the 235x295 pixel setting for pictures taken horizontally will not cover the whole screen as wallpapers. Anyway, if you think about it the dimensions of the display suit pictures that are taken vertically. A horizontally taken picture may look crammed even if it covers the whole display.

                I don't think it supports external softwares, maybe java downloads. Been using it for two weeks now. There are some things you all should know:

                1. it does not play mp3 files straight from the memory card if the bitrate is more than 160kbps. You have to move the files with bigger bitrate to the phone or change the files to lower bitrates.
                2. You cannot transfer mp3 files to the "Sound" folder, only to the "Music" folder.
                3. Likewise, you can only upload images to the subfolder named "downloaded images" under the "Image" folder but not to the subfolder named "photo". The Photo subfolder is reserved for pictures taken with the camera only.
                4. To make wallpapers that cover the whole screen, use the bundled software (Manage Photos)to change the pixel of the original picture to 235x295. Be aware that this pixel setting only works for pictures that are taken vertically. Haven't quite figured it out for pictures that are taken horizontally.

                I'm not so fussy about the points highlighted above so I still like this phone a lot. Fell in love with the screen. My vacation pictures are displayed beautifully as wallpapers. That's one of my main criteria.

                  This phone is so expensive. I saw it at Singtel and it costs S$498 on a 2 year plan which is ironically the same as the D600(also S$498 2 yr plan)

                  Im quite disappointed about the price. It costs
                  more than SE 750i and does not even include the memory card. =(

                                    Relax people. microSD is the new name for Transflash after its approval by the SD Card Association. As such, it's silly to ask if Transflash is fully compatible with microSD because they're really the same thing!

                                        What I mean is - is there Universal compatibility for TransFlash™ memory card slots with microSD memory cards? Coz i would prefer to revert to fones with microSD slots in future, changing the fone not not the contents in card.
