Customer Reviews:

I am happy with my purchase it arrived in a timely manner and function as advertised. I was impressed with the capabilities of this phone,it is a major step-up from my old Palm Treo 650. I was glad it included Android market as it is a major pain to install it on an Android device. The camera works great ...

this phone sucks! do not buy it !!!!!!!!!!!

[87Nensili]

@YuoNoob2

can u please say why?? i was going to buy it but im still not sure, i need to hear more informations and expiriences???

[YuoNoob2]

@87Nensili it has bad processor , it has small screen QVGA ( 240x320 , but normal ones have HVGA 320x480) , it doesnt have multitouch so you cant pinch to zoom... i recommend Sony erricson xperia mini pro :D

[87Nensili]

@YuoNoob2

ok tnx a lot! i think that wont be a problem for me :))

[undeadelite]

the only thing this phone lacks is a decent camera and video call option

[paviaism]

[malena2502]

[gabrielzall]

[malena2502]

I want to buy this phone, so please give me your opinion who has experience with this phone:)

Sorry my english is bad:(

Thank you:)

[ltkipras]

@malena2502 I have this phone and I wouldn't buy it in your place it has very small screen, no multitouch and it lags a lot, in your place I would buy Galaxy mini or save some money on htc or sth

[GAldenucci]

@malena2502 tenho um.. adoro ele... ele eh mto rapido, muitos bom... se vc for comprar um, vc vai ter de mudar o android de 2.1 para 2.2, pq o 2.1, na minha opiniao e mto ruim, pq n aceita aplicaçoes o cartao...

mas, eh isso, um aparelho mto bom.. recomendo vc comprar :)

[malena2502]

[87Nensili]

@Dombajezakon

jel ti imas galaxy 5?? hocu da ga kupim al mi treba necije iskustvo da budem sigurna... u sustini treba mi tel koji je mali i praktican, da traje baterija, za pozive, poruke, slike.. ostale aplikacije ne koristim mnogo... iskreno tvoje misljenje please??:))

[Dombajezakon]

@87Nensili imam ga.nije multitouch,baterija je sranje,ali može se download-ad stednja baterija,dosta brz,kamera solidna.a ako aplikacije su ok

[miyore00]

[MrGH3Man4]

@miyore00 yes it runs through Android cause I own one of these phones and it is really good but you may need a bigger sd card if you download a lot of games (like myself)

[chofi2016]

@miyore00 yeaho it is.. android 2.1

[XxMExXTheXxKingxX]

[MaRiuSeNN1]

I just installed android 2.3 gingerbread on it, it works amazing

[jonzo22]

@MaRiuSeNN1 cool how did you do that? i am thinking about buying one with android 2.1 on it, can i update it?

[MaRiuSeNN1]

@jonzo22 wel yea, when I bought it it had 2.1 but I didint liked it cuz many cool games wouldnt work on 2.1 then ive instaled 2.2 and 1 week ago ive installed 2.3 gingerbread, how you ask? well there are tutorials on web and even here on youtube theres a tutorial if im not mistaking. its easy you just have to be careful to do all the steps.

[EDYouAreTerminated]

I have this phone :)

[Copimi]

does this phone fly in straight line if i throw it idk, in my history tacher's head from idk say 3-4 meters with full swing or does it go out of the line and spin?

[TheAks30]

the processor is powerful, processing wise it can match up with a 1 ghz processor phone of 4inches as it has a small display

the bigger the size, the bigger the processing power

so if you are considering the processor before buying, don't

overal the phone is the best for its price :)

[MegaAndrey121]

i doesnt look cheap on its feateures but of you look in the stores its cheap

[Suarezied]

i got internet problems with this :S plz help

[alxo911]

can u tell me what version of firmware u have on this i5500?

my phone have different menu.

[crislee101]

its good 4 apps but reading txt messages is so shit regret buyin it i only use it now and then. my point of view :)

[jimbosix]

AVOID !

Has text message fault, samsung have not a clue how to cure it at the moment

seems handset has problem 'receiving' from O2 network, multiple unstoppable repeat texts

[parcourkid]

@jimbosix I have the same problem with a similar phone the GT-551 i think its called, i keep recieving repeated trexts and occasionally delayed texts by up to 24 hours so far... Also, app icons often simply disapear from my phone. I've tried to reset my phone, but nothing has worked yet :/

[jimbosix]

@parcourkid from what ive read on the net, there is no cure. samsung have put a download on there website for this phone but for most comments ive read it does not work, mine wouldnt download at all.

Got a feeling samsung know what the design fault is, but probably uneconomical for them to recall, especially as this is a cheaper handset

think ive lost my money on this one if you have any luck post it up, cheers

[MultiBhusan]

Hey guys, i have this mobile.....

its awesome..

[MyKittehCharlie]

[kjdrummereh6]

Mmsnico buy the samsung! Nokia has ovi store for applications. Ovi store sucks! Android has android market, which is the best application store. Android is much better than nokia many other ways too.

[kawaiinitz31]
