  • mga bobo

  • Wow you must really like to complain

  • Now that, is what i call a 'camera' phone

  • im on mine now...but iwant a google phone..

  • @dwightuna Its sad that you want a phone with a wannabe iPhone interface that has an unregulated marketplace that makes for a more dangerous app experience. Why not get an iPhone if you want the real and best thing?

  • @tangypanda well im t-mobile so that wont be happenin

  • This phone is a disappointment. Touchwiz is regulated and only simulates a smartphone: fine, if you want such a service, but not at smartphone costs. The camera may be 8mp but the quality is average - you DO NOT need a 'larger' image for most applications....it's a waste.

    Navigation features are "for a fee!" $10 per month - which you cannot use if unlocked and on another carrier.

    Basically NO downloadable apps.

    Waste of money folks!!!

  • i have this phone(:

  • i hate that they stopped making this. im trying to look for it everywhere but i cant find it ): anyone have a hookup here in cali ? ;/

  • @KatyRocksYo i have one for sale

  • Behold!

  • ive got to say the pictures that the samsung highlight are just as good as the memoir and i would know i tested them at the store and went with the highlight. its just as good with a nicer look and lighter weight.

  • "You can see ah...uhh.. large.. uhhh touch screen uhh display here on the front."

  • charmyshah001, where could i get apps for this phone? any free ones? I just got this phone and I am getting disappointed on where to get apps. Thanks! =)

  • omg i hate samsung that phone is a copy of lg viewty but of curse the lg viewty is much better and more beuty

  • learn to spell

  • it looks kinda good.... i love it!!!!!

  • more info

    w w w. samsung-memoir. com

  • i agree with the usb port for pics.

  • The Samsung highlight is way more attractive than this phone and all around better, this just has a better camera

  • The behold is just like the memoir has the same features the only difference is that the memoir has an 8 megapixel & the behols is cheaper.

  • I have this phone and I love it.

  • geez dude !

    it's like yu hate this phone .

    yur just a complainer .

    who cares about the usb stuff ,

    and saving images takes kind of slow .

    i have it &; it's amazinggg !

  • =) i cant wait till i get it...

    is it hard to work sometimes??

  • Comment removed

  • the camera is just crazy...8mp

    but thats still awesome

  • its ugly though

  • yeah

  • memoir or behold?

  • behold if you dont care that much about pics but they are the exact same phone otherwise

  • but behold looks sexier XD

  • And it also has a cool name to it. it's like BEHOLD MY SEXINESS

  • memoir dude cuz on the behold its 5mp but the quality is horrible. i had the behold but upgraded to the memoir and it was well worth the money.

  • have you found out which one is better? if so please private message me i am looking to buy one of these phones if you could tell me today that would be cool thank you

  • oh. i got the behold cuz i figured out it was the same phone as the memroir other than the camera. so its up to u, if u like taking more pics, get the memroir, but other than that there is nothin different

  • The Sony Ericsson K750 would take pics even slower. That is technology from 4 years ago. I upgraded to this phone and the camera is much faster. The reviewer doesn't know apples from organges. He is not happy with the jack for USB, however there is Bluetooth technology onboard which eliminates the need for the USB. Yes, it may be slower data transfer than direct USB but it's wireless technology. It's all about wireless tech convenience. Bluetooth works fine for me with file transfers

  • The problem with all of these reviews is that each person reviewing devices from these revew websites don't have too much time with each device. They only use it for a few days max I would imagine. Maybe I'm incorrect but I think you need to spend more time with something in order to get a true review. The phone does take pictures quite fas. I upgraded from a K750 Sone Ericsson device wtih 2mp camera. You take a pic with that the people in the pic would have to wait a few seconds before moving

  • does anyone know how the texting is on this?

  • the first few days is weird but you get used to it and texting becomes quick after that

  • yea u can txt using both t9 or the full key board if u turn it sideway

  • Lmfao your so lame! Lack of speed? Ha IDIOT! Just because this phone is new doesn't mean it has to be super super fast... dumbass. You make that misconception on your own. Learn how to really review on a phone. Thanks...

  • you are so dumb, he is saying that so others wont assume it processes the pictures super fast, since the camera really is the main attraction, some people may think that it does that fast, and he is making it clear that it doesn't, he never once said he thought it would be super fast, but that it was slow and he was disappointed with the speed.

  • 8mega pixels my a** this phone is not worth the cost.

  • this guy's a prick.

  • I personally like him, everyone else only says the good things, which is nice to know, but i want to know what to expect, which is not always good

  • I have a question, I got this phone recently. I don't have the 24.99 data plan or anything but I can access aim, is it free then? Also I can sign into my gmail but it tells me that i will be charged per text for reading/viewing emails. My text message plan is unlimited, so I won't be charged right?

  • aim isnt free but since you have unlimited texting its not a problem. unlimited includes texts, picture messages, emails, and ims

  • alright, so it uses a internet service for the IM but treats emails like texts? I had that same question

  • no you dont need internet to use IM. its a widget and the IMs count as text messages. you dont receive an email like a text. to get to your email you have to go the messaging menu and then you choose email. i use aim mail and it works great.

  • im getting a phone pretty soon should i get this phone or the lg secret?

  • if only it was the same size and shape as samsung behold but with all the new features, that would be really awesome!

  • Comment removed

  • is the screen feel like glass like the iphone or is the screen all muchy and crappy like the beholds??

  • nevermind i found out its resistive which kinda sucks but o well. nothing is good these days.

  • but its still good!

  • does it play youtube

  • yeah but you get charged unless you get the unlimited internet browsing plan

  • im sooooo getting this phone!!

  • i want that phone so frekin bad!!

  • this is the behold with 3 more megapixels of camera.....

  • aaaww its not a real web browsing like the G1

  • actually it pretty much is

  • yes u can convert it...phone dog said it in hys memoir review

  • I think they changed their servers or something, because on phonedog he had full HTML browser

  • the phone is just like the samsung behold whats the point of getting it.

  • the camera is better obviously

  • this is for the photo hard core, its a leica lense and is a back up to to lugging around a D-SLR

  • I want to get this phone but I'm short on cash and my contract isn't up yet

  • i liked the camera but the phone was just not as i would expect it to be. the phone is 6 out 10 for me, could have been 3 out of 10, but the camera was just cool

  • 8 mp??? holy crap

  • similar r with LG

  • What? cant understand ur grammar ,COmpletly wrong Grammar sorry. It has 8 mega pix but i Like ordinary Samsung Phone having High Mega pix but produces Average Photo.

  • Mega pixel is not a basis for naming the best Camera phone even it is 12Mega pix or more than.

    Thats why Motorola Zn5 s still the fast and top 1 in Cnet .

    Top2 Samsung Memoir

    Top3 S.E K850i

    Top4 Samsung Omnia

    Top5 N79

    Sorry for you dissapontment when your phone is not in the Top5 weakling!!

    better think b4 react.

  • Motorola sux. i have Motorola and i don't have anything but problem with it.

  • Like we care about your top 5

  • CNET!

  • ya but the Zn5 looks like a weapon or something instead of a phone camera (U like the inversion of the words? I know u do). But really, the Zn5 looks like crap and its NOT a touch screen. AND Kodak... weak... and moto.. weak... = super weak.

  • i bet you could buy i better camra and a skinnyer and better phone for less.

  • i bet u cant

  • they didnt make it usb to force you to buy their $30 cables for replacements.

  • "lack of speed"? its a camera PHONE lets not forget dat it is mainly a cell phone.U can't compare it to a stand alone pointnshoot camera. I agree about d 'data port' , samsung shouldve place a 3.5mm jack. Compare 2 apple's APP's n Samsung widgets: don't like d latter.I did hear about a possible 'widget store' enabling users2 add more widgets. I wish there was wi fi too.I want 2 get an Iphone but d att plan is too expensive, absolute disappointing.

  • this phone sucks ....

  • ehhh

  • looks good but bulky

  • wat's the differance of this and samsung pixon?

  • this phone or g1???

  • i think g1 is better but i would buy this phone too

  • i think you just paying for the camera . the key pad suck. for a expansive phone like that . if u buy a phone like that u gunna want to text like always ..so yea its suck. the key pad

  • i wonder how many phones he has

  • People tend to forget that making photos @ 8 mega pixel, DOES take some time to save.. the image size is very big.

  • depends on the processor and how much memory yur workin w/

  • every review ive seen said it saved pictures very fast. and owning a 8Mp kodak camera, that phone does save at the same speed if not faster. Especially if you compare it over 3 shots in a row.

  • this phone is the best..i gave up my sk lx for this phone n so far, i fkin love it!! the camera is the dope..it so a digital camera quality..now i really dont need to bring 2 devices when i go somewhere to take a picture, just have memoir in my pocket ;) makes life easier..also the navigation by telenav is just so perfect on this phone..its turn by turn navigation..overall, i love MEMOIR!!

  • ho iws the speaker on this phone

  • when does this come out?

  • it's out alreay for 250 AFTER 50 dollar mail-in rebate.

    I have it and I love it, its amazing

  • its just like the behold but has better camera

  • nice!!!!

  • help with memoir

    w w w. Samsung-Memoir. com

  • this phone looks really really like a viewty, and the name: memoir -> LG renoir? just noticing

  • hp camera is just as slow to take shots like that. settings can also change how fast the shutter is. I am getting this phone. i have 5 children so having a quick camera sounds nice without the extra space. i will touch base if i like it or not

  • whAT KIND OF GAME DO WE HAVE ON THIS PHONE.........IM MORE INTO GAMING THAN PHOTO TAKING

  • Then you should take look at an appropriate 'gaming phone'.

  • then why dont you just buy a psp or something? phones are made for phone calls and now pretty much taking pics

  • there is only one gaming phone....

  • Cell Phones are ment to make PHONE CALLS! Not for GAMEING stupid!!!!.

  • In this age of multitasking, a decent quality handset is expected not only to make communication easier, but provide an adequate gaming experience.

  • get outta here w/ that. How about copy and paste? how about performing bizns oriented functions? not everyone is in G3 world w/ u

  • What are you babbling about?

  • Comment removed

  • its gorgeous i agree with the mini usb comment and how much does it cost?

  • 8.0 megapixels! Wow! I"d much rather stay with my HP Photosmart 7.0 megapixel camera as my primary camera ,and keep my cell phone's camera as my secondary camera. Nice phone, though.

  • I am loving Samsung's touch screen phones! I just got an Eternity with AT&T bc I had a screwed up Quickfire WHICH I HATED! And I love my new phone! GO SAMSUNG!!!!!!!!! Btw the iPhone is cool, but needs some feature (i.e. MMS, and normal cell phone features like saving files over the air)

  • this phoneis like a iphone and a instinct mixed together :P

  • what is a lanyard loop

  • a loop for a lanyard idiot

  • and this is why you buy a digital camera

  • Because people are tired of the i phone and the 8 megapixle camera phone

  • Looks like the LG viewty =/

    Pretty bulky.

  • i wanna sleek phone not bulky

    but what's for dinner?

  • I think that at some point all phones will be touch screen.

  • that phone is like an iphone wuna b

  • cause PEOPLE ARE SICK OF THE IPHONE!

  • bc unlocking an iphone doesn't always work.

  • uh u can buy em already unlocked...

  • Comment removed

  • GAY

  • tlga?where should i buy?ung original?

    mura lang pla...hehehe....ano b mgandang unit ng fone?ung original na touchscreen?can i know ur YM?

  • wow amazing 8 megapixel thats a really nice camera dam almost like a digital camera itself!

  • yes and you can take video too and send it via mms :D

  • its kinda bulky for a phone though

  • Espanol? I actually don't speak spanish and i don't know the $ to peso conversion but i will take spanish soon.... in under a year....

  • It's a nice device but the problem is that it doesn't excel in either a phone or a camera. 8 mp is awesome but if it takes that long to save a photo shot, then you have to ask yourself if the camera is your real priority. As far as the phone goes, I think it's cool that it's 3G. The touchscreen keyboard is good, and the screen itself is a nice size without having the device being to bulky for everything it does. I'll say again that I think it's for people who want a phone first with a good cam.

  • wen does it come out

  • The Samsung Memoir was released Wednesday, February 25, 2009. Check your local T-Mobile store for more details.

  • pretty good but it is slow focusing... And also i think it more big and big weight in real...

  • I want that phone! I think I have definitely found my next phone when my contract stops. And then I don't have to carry a digital camera with me anymore. I played with this phone in the T-Mobile store, and yeah, the pictures they take, you would shit in your pants.
