  • Now, I have this phone coming in the mail... but on every phone I've ever used, to use speed dial you hit 'call' after pressing the number. Holding the number down will do it as well, but I'm curious to know if you just don't know about the 'call' button being the faster way to use speed dial...

  • Ur just a bitch. Nobody else cares for the flaws. They want to know how the phone Works. not ur personal opinion

  • what us the upgrade for this phone?

  • Can u download music and does it have a standard earphone Jack?

  • @ihave2rocks Yes it has a standard jack. So you can plug a variety of things into it

  • @Evomatt98 Ok thanks man. i really needed to know that

  • This review is pretty tasteless considering its nothing but this guy bitching about a good phone because he has nothing better to do. Also considering its only a minute and 50 seconds long so obviously he couldn't really think of that much to gripe about. Especially since his complaints are those as trivial and childish as the only three buttons on the phone not lighting up. OMG. End of the world right?!

  • The Eternity fucking sucks. I had it for 2 freaking years and it was hell. The screen is the worst i had ever had in my life. There is absolutely nothing interesting in it. Note that the guy in the video keeps on saying what it does not have. I would be more satisfied with a razor than with this phone. I now have an HTC inspire and it is SOOO MUCH BETTER. Probably better than my previous iPhone4.

  • Lol people are funny. THere is a site called ebay and amazon If you don't like it Get an account on them sites, and just sell it duh. Also Most phones that come out will have flaws other wise cell phone companys wont ever ssell there products. I have an i phone 3gs and it's great. Just dont know why at&t had to take away the unlimited data. See if your a old customer and upgrade you lose it. if your new you get 2gb which if you like facebook and other apps that use the internet then you will

  • Use it within a month i've seen people use 2 gb in hours So that part sucks. But this phone is very cool If you can watch tvon it then that shit should make most people happy. Anyway my option. and stop bashing people for there options. stop spreading hate . Peace love and respect to all

  • For the time: It was a lag. It happens to ALL phones. Just drag it back to the widgets bar and take it out.

    For event widget: That's for missed calls and new messages.

    For the speed dial: Go to contacts, edit them and put symbols/numbers(1.Amy) at the front.

    For the Widgets: You're fucking lucky they even gave you widgets.

    Who cares if it doesn't light up, your ass doesn't light up. Your ass can't get customized either, so let the Eternity be. Screw you, you cunt.

  • This was my phone prior to owning an iphone and was probably the worst phone i've owned. Good vid you highlighted a lot of the frustrations i had. Touch screen was ridiculously slow. Loaded my eternity down with basic apps such as facebook and twitter and a few others and it was laggy as hll. Phone would often crash all the time and the touch screen response was pathetic. Save your money and dont buy this phone. Over 2 years of owning this phone and not a single update from samsung.

  • Research the phone before you buy it and you would have avoided ALL of this.

  • I smashed mine cause it sucked camel dicks always glitched and stole 80 dollars when its worth 3--FUCK SAMSUNG

  • @leightonransome Try a Samsung galaxy S before you say fuck Samsung. Best phone I've ever had.

  • uhm dude? the event bar is for Messages, Missed calls and voice mails.

    When you get a message and see the widget thing, THAT'S what you see

  • i have the same phone i like my phone its the best and it doesnt suck it rocks

  • IPHONE IS A CRAP....... THAT SHIT DONT WORK!!! MY AUNT HAD THE IPHONE, AND SHE HAD TO REPLACE TWICE.... NOW SHE HAS THE ETERNITY, AND SHE IS VERY HAPPY WITH IT.. ETERNITY IS THE BEST PHONE EVER..... !!!!!

  • worst touch screen...we have to use our nail ...the touch screen doesn't work with finger..

  • ahahahah this was the best phone i ever had period i traded this in for a iphone and wow the iphone failed the only thing about the eternity i didnt like was the battery life but other than that it was fine .......i miss my eternity ....i wish i had a app for that

  • Car as his picture, fuck this guy hahaha.

  • i looooove this phone but its kind of hard getting use to the touch screen after youve used an iphone or an ipod touch

  • you have a setting on your phone for not auto updating thats why the phones off, its called settings dude

  • I got around the speed dial issue...

    In the contacts list I listed the first 7 people with numbers in front of their name.

    1 NAME

    2 NAME

    3 NAME

    4 NAME

    5 NAME

    6 NAME

    7 NAME

    That way all I have to do is hit contacts then the green telephone next to whomever I want to call. I consider that a form of speed dial.

  • give it some time, the proprietary power/data port will die and you won't be able to charge the phone. the "new pc studio" is one of the most unreliable applications i've ever worked with, you might spend 15-20 minutes just trying to transfer a single file off this phone. the sound quality is garbage, a $15 nokia 2610 sounds a couple orders of magnitude better. after owning cell phones since around 1996, i can honestly say this is the worst i've encountered. ever.

  • stupid boy! the "no events bar" is for when you get a message from someone. if you didnt have that, you wouldnt get notification that you have missed a call or got a message. i know. i have the phone and i downloaded a virus accidently and it deleted my no events widget. i fixed it now though.

  • the fuckin touch screen sucks

  • @MrClipify There is a way to get free apps i have like 30 on my phone just private message me and ill tell you

  • Comment removed

  • Flaws? Oh come on there's no flaws. Just you being anal and finding the negative out of everything geez. Just got this phone and i loooove it!

  • u r so fucking spoiled wat r u sum rich asshole? this is the best phone ive ever had or could afford its my everything its perfect the only things i dont like are... no flash on the camera and video messages have to be like 10sec or less to send otherwise u get an error saying file too big

  • I FUCKING HATE THIS PHONE

  • i got this phone for a few months ago... after about a week i hated this phone..... its so hard to tap on anything

  • agreed man this phone does suck. Have only had it for about 1 year not a single update from Samsung. Where as the iphone has had several updates. Loaded my samsung eternity down with basic apps like gmail, google maps, and several others. The phone began locking up constantly to where i finally had to reset it. Go get an iphone if you plan on doing anything but talking on the phone. This phone i think sucks for texting as well.

  • Its a good basic phone. As for a "buisness phone." No it sucks.

  • idiot on event it only does it on tht day

  • now the event thing idk about that mime does that 2

  • all you had to do was drag the widjet back 2 the bar and pull it back out.

  • it does have speed dial. you have to press the number you want and # afterward duhh

  • why cant i put ringtones over 20 seconds or less i try to put ringtones like 30 or 25 and it says to large and on my sony it works wtf

  • it only allows ringtones that are 300k or less

  • is there a program to make ringtones les or exactly than 300 k

  • the iphone freakin sucks / it cant even do the simplest things. fck the iphone. the eternity is way better. DONT LISTEN TO THIS GUY. JUST BECAUSE THE ETERNITY MADE A MISTAKE DONT MEAN ITS NOT A GOOD PHONE. THE IPHONE MAKE MILLIONS OF MISTAKES.

  • like...?

  • @goodguy5909 i know and the iphones are alot more expensive, thats y im getting an eternity

  • STFU !

  • This guy is a dumbass lol what a retard. Eternity pwns iphone. screw the iphone cant even do the simplest things a phone can

  • if you still have the phone check out the eternity fourm and you will come to find that you can do a shit ton of stuff to this phone

  • By the way, I bought the Eternity for just $20 refurb'd from ATT. Can you get an iPhone for that much? Nope.  Plus you have to pay $30/mo for the iPhone unlimited data ...for Eternity it's only $10/mo.

  • iPhone huh? Why doesn't the iPhone get with 2009 and add MMS? I have this phone and it has a better camera, video recording, landscape keyboard, etc. And the battery lasts much much longer, and the external speaker is amazing.

    I develop iPhone apps, so I have an iPhone too. iPhones lack a lot of features because Apple likes to scam people into waiting for features (like no expandable memory, etc.) ...I also have a Macbook, so I'm not an Apple-hater

    Just saying, Samsung eternity rocks.

  • You're obviously just an iphone fanboy. Both phones are great, stop making it seem like more of a big deal than it is. I had an iphone. I broke it, I now have an eternity because it's prettier and has a much better camera. Although, iphone and eternity cost the same right now, I still went with the eternity...

  • How does the aim work? I have the iphone but i'm thinking about getting it because I want to go back to t-mobile. Also how well do u think this phone will work on t-mobile?

  • i think i'm replying kinda late, but it works really good with t-mobile. trust me, because its the phone i have and i'm a t-mobile customer

  • your such a retard this phone is smarter than u r

  • i had the same thing with my eternity with the thing that has the date\

    drag it into the widgit bar and drag it back out and its fixed, your a retad, the iphone sucs the eternity is amazing

  • the iphone stinks ass.

    the eternity rocks.

    im givin up my stinky iphone for

    this! :DDDD

  • Omg really, for the no event thing its not events from your calendar its events such as missed calls, texts, and other stuff like that and my date is perfectly fine...

  • iphone stincks

  • the buttons dont like up lol u must be a dum ass not 2 know were each one is

  • Your an idiot

  • Oh NO!

    The 3 buttons at the bottom don't light up?!

    How on Earth will I know where the ONLY 3 buttons are on the entire front of the device? 2 being the call and hang up button?! MADNESS!

    Seriously...not the best reasons to not buy it. I'm sure there's some way to get it fixed with the whole calendar issue....maybe a reset? :P

  • lmfao that's funny as hell

  • @NateTheGreat555 lmfao dude ur funny

  • @NateTheGreat555 hey man i know this was a year ago but what you put still kinda bugs. this video was made for the flaws and yes the 3 buttons at the bottom that don't light up is not usually what people see his just telling us whats wrong with the phone so the sarcasm was a lil unnecessary

  • @XOtheLOVELYkellyOX I understand, but that doesn't necessarily make it a flaw. It's just how they designed it. And compared to some of the other comments I saw at the time regarding it, mine was one of the nicer comments. If I see you trying to make right out of all of the other comments, then that's fine. However, there's no need to single me out. I stated my opinion in a way that didn't outright insult him or harm him. I just wanted to make sure he knew the difference between design and flaw.

  • this guys a retard i have had this phone for awhile and none of that crap has ever happened ^.^ so thats your fault for not taking care of your phone and also your fault for being cheap!! BUY A NEW ONE!!

  • how much is it

  • ur really fricken stupid

  • Ok there is a speed dial you have to dial 1#

    2#

    3#

    4#

    and so on cuz your contacts that are on your sim will show up

  • mann chill out but i do feel u on the no event bug

  • lol my Samsung star says that i have no events tooo

    lol

  • i think i found a butt face

  • if you think about it the eternity does have speed dial cuz what he didn't show you is that let's say you had a contact who's number what 259-1234 if you started dialing 259 that contact would pop up in a little box above the numbers or if it wasn't the first number to pop up there's an arrow to scroll through the numbers that start with 259 till you find it which would probably be only the 2nd or 3rd one hope this helps (:

  • i have had this phone since february and i have not had any problems. this guy either has no fucking idea wat hes doing or he got a bad one with bugs, but i have not had 1 problem with this phone not ever.

  • Fucking whiney cunt. A few minor bugs and your saying you wanna take it back? Ignorant ungrateful cunt you are, the phone can do just as much as a fucking i phone and doesnt REQUIRE you to pay for "iphone services" Aka, forcing you to take data unlimited and email. Yes, you pay for email with the iphone. With other phones, you dont, its in your dataplan. Unfuckinggrateful is all i can close this with-

  • for real huh

  • This phone 100% sucks. I had it for a month, then got an iPhone. The Eternity has the worse touch screen I have ever used. The phone has LOW customization features. Bad bad bad phone.

  • your a dick

  • 4) Soft keys and multitask buttons have never been customizable on ANY cell phone I have ever had so, I don't know why you're whining. Plus, unlike some phones, you can go straight to the main menu from the multitask key.

    5)There are 3 keys you have to remember...get over it that they don't light up.

    If it doesn't do much for you, pay a zillion dollars for an iPhone.

    Lazy ass

  • 1) The "Today" widget (The one with the date) needs to be reloaded. (Put it back on the widget bar and take it off again to reload) That sucks, I know.

    2) The "Events" widget isn't for the calendar, it's for when you get a text message and when you get a missed call.

    3) No speed dial...I know, really lame BUT the phone book has a "favourites" category.

    (more coming...)

  • r u a douche or fuck tard u pick

  • that's the flaw of this phone, NO SPEED DIAL.

  • theres a speed dial, set your contacts into your sim card, and dial the number that it is on your sim. Ex. Your 5th contact will be speed dial 5. Dial 5 and send and itll call them

  • Help!

    I'm stuck between the Samsung Eternity and Samsung Impression. Can someone give me there suggestions on which one i should get?

    Thank you.

    :))

  • The date problem I can understand but everything else, man you are the lazyest s.o.b. And why do you need a light for the answer and end keys there's only 3 keys at the bottom use your memory, send key left side, end key right side just that simply.

  • lazy ass its 2009 you dont need speed dial

  • I could say what's wrong with your review but everybody else seems to already be doing that. Do your research on how the phone works before making a passive-aggressive "review" on the internet.

  • i hav it i like it

    get a condom fuck ur self

    and by a new phone

  • you should know by now that the event widget is for missed calls, voice mails, and text not seen

  • if only the call/end buttons lit up...........

  • I just got my Eternity and I think its great!!

  • fuck u

  • OK if u do not like the damn flaws get a fucking new phone hm k

  • eternity rules

  • and the event widget is for the current day not for the other days....

  • wow ur so retarded ur supposed to let the time be updated....and u dont need speed dial u lazy retard

  • Good point krnpride153

  • the " no event 'software flaw' " is not a flaw ata all. if some body txts u and u dont open it, u drag the box into the widget bar and thats the widget, it dosnt mean calendar events.

    and as omnomnom said, u have a messed up one because ive had one since around easter, and it works fine. its just a quality control error on your particular phone. i do agree on your point about about the non customizable soft buttons. except the one on the side. its a shortcut key, u shouldnt program it.

  • Comment removed

  • my eternity freezes in the middle of texting. i have to press the hold key, then press it again to unfreeze it...not that big of a deal.

    but yeah, your eternity has problems, cause my events work and the date chnges on its own

  • is the samsung better than the lg vu?

  • Comment removed

  • hell yeah

  • Its 2009. Speed Dial is for retards. Contacts, type in the first letter of the name, and off you go. And if you dislike the widgets, why not disable them all as this is the only phone that's not a smart phone, that even has them, be thankful.

  • wow you have a messed up eternity....

  • I have to agree with these people.. the eternity is an amazing phone, i've had it for 2 days now and I haven't had any problems. I've played on it constantly since I purchased it. Just like they said you should have done your research before you purchased a phone, maybe there is a flaw in your thought process XD.

  • Comment removed

  • YOU IDIOT!!!!!!!!!!! it does have speed dial. if u actually typed the area code and atleast two other numbers the person that has those first few digits name will show up . then u can click on it from there. and if u dont like the phone take it back cuz no one wants to hear u complain about a good phone that maybe doesnt have some features on it that u like. OH WELL SUCK IT UP! u should have done more research.

  • take your day and date widget and put it back in the sidebar and open the calender and click on the day and then bring your day and date widget out and it should update.

  • Tha events are 4 texts and missed calls not 4 things in tha calendar. When you get a text or missed call u can put it in tha widget bar

  • your loss its great.. those minor flaws, if they even are... don't matter it runs so perfect.. it is the best phone i have had in my life, not even joking.. its animation, design, everything!

  • thats cause when you go to your event lists in the calender, it lists all events that you have written down whether it is 5 months away or not, but that event widget is for events that are happening today....

  • Nobody uses speed-dial now, and yeah.

    This is stupid.

  • yr phone is messed up bc mine isnt like that.

  • every phone has some type of flaw, or something that u cant customize...its not that big of a deal...i dont see y u had to make a vid about it, it does a lot more than most phones.

  • ur right about that.

  • Damn I wish I saw this before I bought the phone.

    I just ordered it friday.

  • should have got the lg vu!

    better options but the phone is gay. i rather have the eternity anyways

  • I don't have the phone yet should get it in 3 day's...but c'mon do some research buddy.

    Speed Dial = 1#, 2#, 3# and so on....

  • oo good one. How do I actually sign it? Right now, i just get some other numbers.

  • the event thing is not a flaw it only pops up when it is on that day

    and you don't really need lights for the buttons your not blind

  • I'm sure someone posted this but the "no event" thing is for messages, calls, and voicemails.

  • You got that right!

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • ok you dont know the date?and you cant find the buttons with out a light? and just go to your calendar to find events go to your contacts to call someone you lazy turd=]!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • 4) red and blue buttons don't light up? big deal. there's a humongous screen above it that lights up, are you blind??

    5) i wouldn't change the dial, contacts, and menu even if i could b/c those are pretty standard essentials..

  • I've had the Eternity for almost a week now, and I absolutely love it. Here's some comments I have for your video:

    1) I use the calendar widget, which I think its better since you can see the whole entire month. And it also highlights today's date--never had a problem with it not updating.

    2) I agree, event widget sucks..but u can go to the event list

    3)no speed dials = :( when using bluetooth, but i heard something about a software update coming out soon

  • If you don't like it, you shouldn't have bought it.

  • i'm still getting it....the other videos pros out weigh your cons....still excited to get it this month

  • how do you view youtube video on this? does it need the internet plan?

  • yea dude its 15 a month for internet plan iphone is 30

  • even the iphone had flaws when it first came out (it still does)..but yeah it's his review he can say what he wants.

  • my sister got that phone she gonna try trade it in for the new iPhone cuz its still gt the cover n shit on the screen, un-used too *MINT CONDITION*

  • um 2 things why is everyone getting pissed at this guy. its not his fault he is a fucking retard wit a camera

  • dude you're a fucking fag

    who gives a damn if you don't like it.

    stop fucking complaining you ass, at least you have a fucking phone

    and dude you're much more stupider than a fucking middle schooler because they could figure out how to solve cell phone problems.

  • Wow -- Had this phone for just over a week now (from phone I WAS using, this is a major upgrade) ... & I have to say this guy's review is spot on.

    It's so cute & slick but I agree w/ him on everything he said. It'd be nice to choose wiggits, the side 'quick key' menu, & I want lit up green/red buttons.

  • you honestly dont need the green/red/return buttons to light up... there are only three buttons, is it that hard to remember that the green key is on the far left, the return key is in the middle, and the red key is on the far right... its common sense. and if you need a phone to know what the date is, you have a problem.... ya you cant customize it very much but its still an amazing phone. and who needs speed dial when all you have to do is go to the contact you want and push a green phone

  • if u dont want it i'll have it cause i really want that phone

  • good idea, to point out flaws, since, as you said, no one really points them out. but it really is a nice phone.

  • wow just return it for a new 1!!!! i love my eternity. it totally beast

  • i appreciate your honesty... i have the eternity and like it, but completely understand your frustrations. i commend you on being real.

  • I love my Eternity and I don't have any of the flaws that you have. When you access the events from the widget panel, that gives you the events for the current day. Speed Dial on the Eternity is listed as "Favorites", as far as the date, you should go to your local AT&T store to see if they can do a software update on your phone ~OR~ you could try power-cycling your phone at least once daily so that it could keep an updated date/time..

  • damnnn, ppl r slaugterin u for makin this, haha

    but neways, did u trade it in n wat for?

    jus curious

  • Speed dial on eternity= FAVORITES..its the same thing its just not called speed dial.

  • no one gives a shit what u dont like about this phone...i got one and i love it

  • wow your a faggit be happy for what you got

  • fuck u man that's a nice fuckin phone quit makin videos like this

  • does the side slide out?? lol sorry im a dumbo

  • no it dosent slide out

  • So, the 'No Events' thing is beacuse there are no events THAT DAY. IDK about the date thing thougrh.

  • Trade it in?? WHY??? There are 500 and something reviews I've seen for the samsung eternity and everyone rates it 5/5! And wow, some of the "flaws" you talked about aren't even flaws, do some research before making a video XD

  • LOL XD

  • bitch, most people cant even get a nice phone like that, quit your whining, if you want to, get your own new phone without tellin the world, damn

  • Then trade it in you whiny bitch!!

  • FAIL, this square ass bz is nothin but a weenie!!! speed dial is for pussies, u dnt know how to use a dial pad?? n u dnt need that today widget use ur calander!

  • wow keep complaining ur just a retard

  • you complain to much, this phones badass

  • man dood your shouldnt do any reviews considering you dont do enough research.. the event widget is to let you know if you miss a call or text message something like that its not at all related to your calender. the button on the side is a mutlitask button it not suppose to be customizable its so you can do things while in a call ie play games or browse the net.. giving you the ability to transfer data and voice simultaniusly

  • nice

  • really? your upset about not having speed dial? How lazy are you. And the buttons not lighting up? You have a 3.2 inch bright screen to see the buttons with. Plus the bottom lights up when you get a call. And the "software issue" with the calender isn't even a software issue...you have to drag the events to your widget. Please disregard this video if you are going to purchase this phone. The only thing i really see that is better on the iphone is the browser.

  • wow...i cant believe u would complain the phone is touch and everything is great about it. try having a crapy flip ugly phone for 2 years and i wasnt even complaining

  • i have this phone. and it is great there are no big deal breaking flaws. i am posting this on my phones browser it is great. i disagree with you.

  • what a bitch

  • Comment removed

  • woww wat loser stop cryin u lil baby.... wahh o no the buttons dont light up o no the sky is falling wah
