[2007grammynomonies]

How is call quality?

Also, can you change the bottom dock?

[yon4daime444]

call quality is great, and no you cant change the bottom dock

[kingmiller1982]

I think your review sucks, you said really said nothing about the phone, and learn to use a video camera, you are giving people motion sickness....

[Bristehan]

How do I find my my faves?

[aznlilsaint]

when you text, can you flip the phone with the speaker to the right, and would the keyboard rotate that way? or just with the speaker on the left?

[mentosM4N]

does this phone have like free games and apps you can download, if so where can i find them besides the browser?

[wlfnthfthf]

hey how do you have the widget icon of 5 dots on top of your widget bar and mine dont? mine starts with the web icon

[quietkitty16]

the icon of5dots that u r refering to is MYFaves. it depends if u have myfaves or not...

[NeyHoMah]

Does the instant messaging cost extra?

Or does it just count as text messaging?

[mkmcmas]

you mentioned nothing about the 5 megapixel camera, music player or video player.

[ubuntu910]

try looking at my other videos!

[4everthesystem]

how much would this phone cost me if im already a tmobile customer?????????

[ubuntu910]

it depends if you're due for an upgrade or not. Call t-mobile

[greenrox01]

if you are new customer it costs 150 but if you are not and you havent had your phone for 18 months you have to pay $400

[BrooklynStar1130]

@4everthesystem it will cost u 50 bucks with a 2 year contract for unlimited texting it costs 15 . texting with family plan is 25 dallors

[coolperson998]

Love your videos. They're very informative. Would you mind doing a short video showing how the GPS works? Thanks.

[ubuntu910]

my free trail on my gps has expired. Sorry.

[JFOL20]

where can i download widgets 4 free

[ubuntu910]

you can't. What you have is what you get. atleast for now.

[soccerdefender5]

is there an app store?

[ubuntu910]

no.

[rclyburn]

I'm stuck between this or the Blackberry Curve. Which would you recommend?

[ubuntu910]

the curve is a nice phone as well. It really all depends on what you are wanting. Sorry that I can't really be of more help but I really don't know much about you and what you'd be using the phone for.

[lookiamviet]

is the touch screen good in the sense that it chooses the correct letters? or does it tend to choose the wrong one?

[guitarboi76]

is it possible to add 3rd party apps to the phone, in what i had in mind opera mini? thanks ahead of time.

[ubuntu910]

yes but you will have to hack it. to find out how just message me.

[prodigygamer]

hows the gps? if there is ne?

[ubuntu910]

There is. And it was alright. But I'm kind of mad because I called t-mobile three times getting them to assure me that the gps was in fact free and come to find out after I get the phone the other day it told me that my trial was up and if I want to continue using it I would have to pay an extra thirty dollars a month. So I am not very happy with t-mobile right now.

[GWBsucksMonkeyNuts]

Well I am on the "trial" and can never get the GPS to work. I keeps saying weak GPS signal. But I know GPS is in this area because my dad has a GPS in his car that works fine. and I am in the metro Miami area.

[FunkMasterFuzzy]

yo u probly can but just to be sure you can change backround correct cause in every review every1 has that backround

[ubuntu910]

Yes, you can change the background to whatever you would like!

[claudia0172]

is it easy to text in the horizontal way? or can it be difficult?

[ubuntu910]

It is pretty easy. And it just keeps getting easier.

[bigtroubles1]

u guys ask dumb questions who cares if the pic id takes up the whole fone, as long as u recognize whos callin chill dayyum.. lil nit pickers and shyt.. does it talk to u , does it do this does it do that.. ugh people are annoying ass fucc

[Its1mePayton]

@bigtroubles1 lol u r to funny

[Magnet227]

nice phone how much is it though

[ubuntu910]

t-mobile has it listed as 200 with a 50 dollar mail in rebate but it ended up costing me about 240.

[imbackin08]

this phone is great and way better than the iphone in my area (AZ)....

[jchul0]

hey what internet plan r u using in this vid?

[ubuntu910]

I'm using the 5.99 plan. I can do everything I need with that plan.

[xSTR8xUPx]

what is the 5.99 plan what are the other plans and there prices please or at least where can i find them thank you

[ubuntu910]

just call t-mobile and they can give you a full list of their plans.

[GWBsucksMonkeyNuts]

wait a minute. You can browse the internet on the 5.99 plan ? WTF. They told me I had to get a $20 plan when I got my phone.

[Iluvmiley321]

me2!

[mistershiko]

wait there is a $20 plan?????!?!?1

[GWBsucksMonkeyNuts]

sorry I think it is actually 24.99

[Iluvmiley321]

my dad is getting me the samsung behold on january 15!!! thank u for the great review!!

[youXgoXfirst]

that's mah birthday! Cause, I know you care so much. :P

[ubuntu910]

happly birthday. haha

[Chay221]

how is the picture id? Is is half on the screen or does it cover the whole screen when someone calls?

[thegagaman]

so does it have wifi? and do u have problems with fat fingering the keyboard ever?

[Leacshane]

nope no wifi just 3g..

interested in getting this phone for free on a new contract, contact me... $330 for upgrades..

and no problems with fat fingering... i have not had any

[ubuntu910]

no it doesn't have wifi and yes sometimes I have problems with my fingers being to big but when you have the t9 on that usually fixes that.

[NickTheItouchHelper]

HOLD THE FUCKING CAMERA STILL!!!!!!!

[skoalandsnakeyes]

good review but you didnt hone in on the camera, is it as good as  they say it is?

[apex001]

IT IS 5MEGAPIXELS CANT GO WRONG..

[pseudonyms36]

help me out bro. do u have any issues with the voice calling? like when you're connected to other caller, is the voice quality poor? dropped calls? anything? thanks a bunch

[ubuntu910]

not really. All that has been pretty nice.

[elleissej]

Only one question...

This Phone has WiFi ?????????

if the answer is NO, This phone really sucks !!!

thank you...

[ubuntu910]

then in your opinion this phone really sucks.

(it is kinda starting to in my opinion as well, but I am really picky!)

[typecutie]

how much is for web ?

[ubuntu910]

Call T-mobile for that info. Rates very.

[Leacshane]

24.99, that's ulimited web and 400 msgs

[guitarfreak529]

thats also a load of shit . They shouldnt have to charge 24.99 for 400 messages and unlimited web . T-mobile is so gay.

[Leacshane]

well that's their smartphone plan.. and actually they ave the cheapest plan currently where smartphone data plans are concerned

[brebre10152]

is there a plan with unlimited web an text?

[Leacshane]

ulimited web and text is $34.99 on smartphones

[wasia18]

you are a dumb ass

[ubuntu910]

back at you buddy

[apex001]

LOL

[fird1]

its better than the i phone and the android put together

[apex001]

.......you wish.....then this phone would have more HYPHE then those 2 phones alone

buts its alright....... its like a lesss

smarter version of the iphone if you want

to put it that way

[ichigocrusade]

UBUNTU FTW!

[zgamer94]

just a couple questions... first.. for the widgets can you download some for free? [like g1 has the android market and you can install for free] and can you go on youtube and watch videos there?

[ubuntu910]

no this phone does not have anything like the android market. and yes you can watch my video titled "Samsung Behold Video Player"!

[lgvucom123]

Behold users see

w w w. Samsung-Behold. com

[23snventertainment23]

i just orderd the samsung behold and can you tell me if we can set up ring tones for callers and a ring tone for text messegeing?

[ubuntu910]

yes you can.

[crazyfilms101]

hey man .. good review.. i was hoping if you could make an in depth review on the music player interface . i would really appreciate...thanks

[ubuntu910]

Yes, I will try to make an in depth video of the music player. I have a very busy schedule being a full time student but I will do my best. I made to videos today coving the texting and video player of the phone that I am uploading now.

[saunguyen1]

Hey whats like the scratch resistance of the phone? Is the screen easily scratch-able? Like would it be bad enough to go buy a screen protector?

[ubuntu910]

Funny that you ask. I got a little nick in the phone today. Not big enough for you to really see but big enough to scare me. So to day I went to the t-mobile store and bought a screen protector. I would say that it isn't that scratch-able but I would recommend getting a screen protector if you get the phone because the screen is not as tough as the iphone's sad to say.

[ubuntu910]

Yes I will try to add that to my list of things to make a video over. Thanks for the idea. If you have anymore questions feel free to ask!

[UnityCollegeWestview]

can you do a review and show the messaging interface more..what does it look like when u get new text messages. are they grouped together by person or what?

[ubuntu910]

I've read that it does on random sites but I have yet to find it and the T-mobile site says nothing about having an FM radio on this mobile device. Also as far as I know you can not switch between mobile and full view. If the site has a mobile site then it just appears in the mobile view.

[iiNSYDER]

IS there really an FM radio??

[spicyandtasty]

It seems the browser on this phone is different than the browser on an almost identical Samsung from AT&T which has what seems to be a full html browser. Can the browser be adjusted to show a full page view and zoom out, or can you download opera mini?

[ubuntu910]

Yes the keys on the keyboard are very easy to type with. I also enjoy the T9, it fixes mistakes you may make while typing. And yes, as far as I know you can upgrade. It will cost you a little bit more considering you are not due for a full upgrade but as far as I know if you are willing to pay a little more than yes you can upgrade to this phone.

Thank you for the response. If you have anymore questions feel free to ask.

[AASFski]

i really want to get this phone... i was waiting for sumthing like this forever. But idk if i can get it yet becuase my 2 year plan is not over yet... but am i still able to get it? oh and by the way, r the virtal jekys on the qwrety keyboard easy to type on? thanks

[ubuntu910]

Yes you can login to Myspace with it. It has a full web browser.

I will add what applications it has in the details in a few minutes and I do not know about Microsoft Outlook but it has a program called Samsung PC Studio 3 and you maybe able to sync your contacts from Outlook using that?

Sorry that I'm not more help in that subject.

[persianprez]

hey, nice little review. I ordered one of these on friday, I was just wondering what kind of applications it comes with in the menu. Also, do you know if it syncs with outlook for contacts?

[raultwinz345]

can u logg on to myspace??

[ubuntu910]

yes it is very responsive. you can calibrate it to your touch so everything works very nicely. Call quality is nice I've had it for a few days and had one kind of fuzzy call but I doubt that had anything to do with the phone. Also yes I will try and make two videos one inside and one outside to show off the camera.

Thank you for your questions and ideas for future videos. Feel free to ask more questions if you have them.

[ocwicked]

hey man nice vid. so is the screen pretty responsive??? and how is call quality? also u think u can take a short vid outside n inside with the phone then put in here on youtube.

thanks man!!!!

[ubuntu910]

The phone has a great camera! The camera I used to record this video was a 3.2MP camera and the camera on the Samsung Behold is a 5MP camera so quite a bit better then the one used to make this video. Also yes you can set mp3's as your ringtone for incoming calls as well as for your message tone.

Thank you for your reply. If you have anymore questions feel free to ask!

[justinartcore]

hows the camera???would u think its better than the motorola zn5?and can u use ur mp3's as ringtones?
