[MaxwellStudios]

[erikherreraa]

[XxNomac]

[DMSteller87]

The software update Samsung sent out destroyed this phone.

[PunkRockerzDNA8]

PLEASE ANSWER MY QUESTION!!!! IF I BUY THIS PHONE DOES IT NEED INTERNET FOR IT TO WORK? OR CAN I BUY IT ND HAVE THE INTERNET BLOCKED WOULD IT STILL WORK?? OR DO I NEED INTERNET?

[JerkinFreak123]

@PunkRockerzDNA8 u need a data plan, on android phone u will always play the $30 for data

[AddisonLovesYou69]

@PunkRockerzDNA8

You have to pay at least pay a 30.00 a month..for data packaging. All smart phones require this. And yes, this is a smartphone..

[saralynbailey]

@PunkRockerzDNA8 no i think ya have to have internet cause i looked into it

[coreys96n02maximas]

I have it in white and its a great phone I love the speed and battery life

[seattlespace98]

can you type with it in alphanumerical? or just qwerty? im afraid i don't know to use qwerty

[hanna456]

@seattlespace98 idk buy QWERTY isnt that hard.. it's like typing on the computer/laptop except with two fingers xDD

[Emilyducttape]

[ArcticInfinity]

[cmac1226122612261226]

[coreys96n02maximas]

I've had mine for a few days very great and easy I had a droid x and this phone is lighter and faster has a better display and better life

[TheDinkleProductions]

@coreys96n02maximas Can u get google instead of bing?

[ShloeChloe]

is this phone easy to use?

[XxXBigWapumxXx]

why do the other galaxy s phones have a front facing camera

[b00shW00kie]

i wish it had a front facing camera for facetime and what not

[naterules1996]

@b00shW00kie the 4g does

[rubiksmagicsolver098]

@b00shW00kie do u know if you can get facetime on this? or just skype

[b00shW00kie]

@rubiksmagicsolver098 really

[rubiksmagicsolver098]

@b00shW00kie Wat?

[Lucky34760]

I'm a teen, and my parents won't let me get internet on my phone. I noticed that this phone has the Mobile Internet Hotspot. Does this mean that internet is forced when you get this phone? Thanks for the help (if you help, that is)...

[swopekat]

@Lucky34760 Yes, all verizon smartphones require a data plan and the cheapest one is $30

[tooxcool]

Do you need to buy a data package in order to be able to use all these features? Or can you just buy the phone?

[linlyrocks012]

Ive had this phone since november and it was working pretty well but now that ive had it for a while, it randomly presses buttons on its own, like the 'back" button and the "search" button. It also randomly exits out of windows that i've opened, even though ive never dropped it. CANT WAIT TO UPGRADE!

[ForeverBimbo06]

@Krewfull Yes, that is true. I've had this phone since early December of last year. It does have a short battery life but you should be fine if you get into the habbit of charging it every night.

[iReflexzZo]

im waiting for mine to come. stupid fedex takes forever

[Krewfull]

Many people say that the battery life runs out very quickly. Is this true?

[mikebkilla]

This is the BEST hands on review.

[leightonransome]

Finally someone who doesn't talk about the fucking accessories it comes with or the piece of shit box.

[Androiduser144]

If you want this phone to be great root it and lagfix it!

[13basketball4life13]

I hope this phone is worth it im getting it tomorrow!

[MsAnnettee]

Im actually watching this vid of my phone right bow

[MsAnnettee]

I have one and im only 13 :P

[13basketball4life13]

@MsAnnettee Hey, haha im 13 too! Shhh. LOL! Do you like urs? Im going to get mine!(: But I have to pay for it!

[MsAnnettee]

@13basketball4life13 yes it is fantastic it freezes sometimes though and the battery drains a lot and that's about it besides that it is AMAZING! Hope you like your phone if you do get it today! LOL

[GageMeehan]

@MsAnnettee want a medal?

[MsAnnettee]

@GageMeehan What??

[ThEVillECrEw]

i think ripping your finger nail off feels GREAT!!!!

[mysterycross]

Totally looking forward 2 upgrading this week to the Samsung Fascinate!!!! Originally I wanted the Droid Charge by Samsung but costs waaaaay too much, this one is perfect for me! n_n

[1billionfizz]

0:42 is funny is you replay it over and over

[jagjagin]

"big black slab" that's what she said LMAO

[footballboy0]

Does this have to have a 29.99$ data package or can it go 9.99$??

[pvgomer]

@footballboy0 This is full Android phone and yes you have to get 29,99 but its well worth it. The phone has the best camera then most of the phone in verizon.

[abdur50]

i love your reviewing style

[MrBeastywillcox]

@hardy1230 no its not continuum came out later nut i agree its way better

[andrewpitera]

i think ive watched this video 12 times :D

[GewBacka]

Getting it friday :D

[TheBeastAtleast]

Getting it tommorow



[TonyDaGreat1000]

my brother has this phone,its a great phone,and yes u can change the unlock screen to a harder unlock screen, so others cannot get on your phone

[TNTslayer1997]

witch is better the continum or this

[ware1293]

@TNTslayer1997 THIS. Its bigger!

[shaggykid332]

hows the phone now?

[breannawalton]

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh



[bduffey92]

and bing might as well be the same as google since its been proven they copy microsofts search results lol

[bduffey92]

4:20 if u hold ur finger down then u can move the slides around.....



[Luvlikewhoaa99]

I Love how he just throws everything..

[4evrskater]

can u change the unlock thing from the puzzle to something else?

[spededpat]

I chose the incredible over this phone because of HTC sense and also because of the location of the charger port. Why on the top of the phone? makes it difficult to use the phone and charge it at the same time

[TheBryonb]

10:26 GIGGATY

Great review, def gettin it

[sixcube]

can someone help, how can I transfer my photos to computer, I just downloaded the V cast Media Manager, and I dont know how, Please help thanks,,,,,,

[27012620]

[mookeychase0907]

Good review

[Dangler410]

do you have to pay for the hotspot?

[jayjay2815]

Does this phone have a password setting? like so ppl that dont know your password cant get into it like the i pod?

[Dangler410]

does this phone have a indicator light?

[ware1293]

@Dangler410 Nope. 

[iMusely]

I want this phone as my trade in, in April because the phone I have sucks bad. Its the Motorola Rival from verizon. purple/black

[2Aug2]

Can you change the unlock screen from the puzzle piece if you don't like it?

[19Malik21]

@2Aug2 yes it shud be able to. when i was on my brothers he had a drawing one where he picks a shape or letter he wants and he makes it on the pad to unlock his phone. so yes you shud be able to

[naguitarhero]

@2Aug2 yes

[AK1337H]

@2Aug2 yes

[MrTbone248]

@2Aug2 yea u can make it so u just swipe the screen

[itsraininginside010]

@2Aug2 yeah as far as I know.

[cmac1226122612261226]

@2Aug2 you can change to the pattern

[MegaTruthboy]

i got the phone like two weeks ago hate to say it but this phone fuckingggggggg phone rockssssss

[KiaraJerod]

I GOT THIS PHONE TODAY AND IM IN LOVE WITH IT:)

[cadmaster6]

i think this is the first vid were he goes directly to the phone instead of looking at the other shit in the box.

[cpwoods79]

Hey man. You gotta get accustomed to the phone's operation before you post videos. I noticed you were wrong on one thing so I stopped watching after a while. -sorry.

[jinoh1030]

I got mine yesterday. This phone is a BEAST!!! Best phone I have ever owned. Also, this is way better than Vibrant and Captivate; Tmobile and ATT version of Galaxy S.

[VraiDiouf]

@jinoh1030 how is it better than the Vibrant and Captivate when it has far less internal storage?

[octavggoga]

the best review. THANK YOU!

[sumLsum]

He opened it before the video...there were no stickers. smh

[LeandraSaurusRex]

anyone know how much the monthly bill is for the fascinate? with a family plan?

[Tinkyourheartout]

@LeandraSaurusRex

Depends on how many people are on the family share plan, and if they're splitting the bill equally, PLUS $29.99 for the unlimited data plan, or you could get a $15.00 for a limited data plan. I'm on a family share plan, (of 3 people) we split the "base plan" down the middle, so that plus my $29.99 data plan is about $80.00..ish.

[ChubbyPant201]

it sounds like hes rapping the first few seconds of the video lol

[ChubbyPant201]

omg no i dont like whats in the box gosh

[Shayna6278]

The "Changing will not be saved" is not a typo. Fool.

[At221l]

is 2.2 out yet

[fulie1]

@At221l not for this.

[emmygibbler]

I also have another question......

if you purchase this phone at walmart or best buy, with the 2 yr activation, do you buy the phone and take it to the verizon store to activate it? i've heard rumors that you have to set up a plan with walmart/best buy if you buy it from there. can someone please explain how this would work?

[chevyhighrider]

@emmygibbler I am pretty confident you can activate it yourself at home by dialing *228 option 1 or by logging into your VZW account which would give you more options.

[emmygibbler]

@chevyhighrider thanks.

[emmygibbler]

i can't decide between the new Verizon iPhone (coming out feb 10) or the Samsung Fascinate....any suggestions?

[TheDarkblade77]

@emmygibbler fascinate....iphone will break easily...this phone wont

[emmygibbler]

@TheDarkblade77 do you have either or em?

[unlock4all]

visit : misophones . com

[GDAWGGotit]

this is an awesome phone!!! (:

i wanna get 1

[hewittguy]

can you get music on it for free?

[marshmellowmaster97]

i have been waiting for a year and i have to wait till november. :( i am gonna worship it like god.

[DiscoveringTheLost1]

When I get mine, I will make out with it... I have been waiting SO LONG FOR THIS PHONE!

[os0fr3sho]

Does this fone have facetime or a webcam

[BmothafukinT]

@os0fr3sho nope theres no front facing camera unfortunately

[os0fr3sho]

Does the samsung fascinate have facetime or a webcam on it? @ AndroidCentral

[ps3fan420]

I just purchased one today. I'm so excited :P

[DinaaAdoree]

ok i just got the Fascinate the day after christmas , and i keep wonder what is on the top of the phone , at first i though it was another camera on the front of the phone its located int top left corner of the phone CAN SOMEBODY TELL ME WHAT THAT IS ?????

[COOKIE4TEHWOOKIE]

@DinaaAdoree it's a motion sensor so that the screen doesn't stay on when your talking on the phone.

[spededpat]

skipping over "whats in the box" part.. I decided on the droid incredible over this phone due to the placement of the charger port. I also prefer the pinch function on HTC Sense better.

[897doc]

is it just me or does the backround music kindof sound like pirates of the carribean?

[897doc]

gotta have me some swype! haha that was hilarious!

[Anoush13]

Fascinate seems like iPhone combining with Android...

[ThatOtherPerson1]

@Anoush13

iPhone + Android = Giant mobile WIN

[bboggess17]

T__T

i want it... /:<

[gabulldogs11]

is evrybody copying iphone design

[bmd900]

@gabulldogs11 nope

[kmjolds]

can i download music from itunes onto this or do i have to have windows media

[TheLostRemedy]

@kmjolds You can get an app called Double Twist on your phone and your computer, and it will let you sync your itunes with your phone.

[SouthrnBell88]

I got mine for $48.88 at Walmart thru Verizon. Love it so far. Except Bing :(

[bmd900]

1:50 thats what she said

[ghettosk8tergirl07]

Ive been trying to get this phone for a while now. I saved up all my money so I could get it by the time school started... but then I had to use that money to pay for school. So then I waited for my upgrade to come... but then my older sister "needed" one more then I did... -_-. So Ive been stuck with the ever so outdated Juke... HELP ME!!!

[bruinbaseball12]

@ghettosk8tergirl07 you can get this phone for $99.99 at best buy. Just thought i'd help you out. but that is with a new 2 year thing :P

[ghettosk8tergirl07]

@bruinbaseball12 Thank you. That really helps. But Im on my fathers line at the moment and I think my next upgrade is in like 2 years lol. Maybe Ill ask for it for Christmas :P

[kamemzie11]

Does anyone know how to add a signature to text messages on this phone? Just got it last night and the manual says nothing about it.

[ByrdGangNigga15]

so i asked for this or the HTC DROID incredible for christmas and then a simpler phone the LG ally. Ok so to have internet you have to have a data plan??

[brodyadamsthatsme]

cut your nails!

[pat52205]

fuck power buttons on the side. they should always be on the top right.

[xXbARnEYateMeXx]

my mom loves to kill my hopes for christmas :(

[taneena]

Heey thats not fair..Lol..You didnt have a strong 3g signal sooo the web didnt load as fast..I think =) But hey what do I know lol

[greenscreeningthings]

I WAAAAAAANT! :) WHY DOES OUR CONTRACT HAVE TO NOT BE UP UNTIL JUNE!?

[jjheelz]

can u have them turn off 3g and only use wifi from ur house so u dont have to pay 30 bux a month? cuz if i get this phone id rather get online from wifi than 3g cuz i dnt wana pay 30 every month

[deatthkid66]

@jjheelz it is wifi capable but idk if u can turn off 3g

[greenscreeningthings]

@jjheelz you can't do that sorry :( You just can't. You could pay $600 and buy it without being on verizon and just use it on wifi, but no calling

[jjheelz]

@greenscreeningthings good news i talked to my dad and hes gonna get it for me for $200 for xmas but i need a job so i can pay for the 3g every month. im gonna go and get it with him ether this week or next week. im pumped!

[greenscreeningthings]

@jjheelz awesome! :) Good luck with your new phone!

[TheLostRemedy]

@jjheelz No matter what, when you get this phone, or any smartphone with verizon, you have to get a data plan. But they do have different data plans for smartphones. You can get the 150mb per month data plan which is $15 a month. Or, go with the unlimited data plan which is $30 a month. I have the $15 a month data plan for my fascinate and it is just fine, mostly because I am in a wifi signal almost everywhere I go. But you have to watch your data, you don't want to go over.

[Spense626]

had the droid x it was a badass phone but too damn big and weird to hold.. switched to this couldnt be happier, the screen is amazing and surfing the web is FLAWLESS sooooo damn smooth.

[edenfrost]

This phone is great! Just got it last week :) I got the white one looks awesome!

[Chelseabadazz09]

I personally dont like this review because you think that everyone knows about the phone already and what is that same and whats not ...... just to let u know describe better next tiime 2 say its supposily a review .

[jwemt81]

I just ordered this phone for my husband. Can't wait to give it to him!

[euricdinkins]

[XxSGxMAYNExX]

[domenicrocks]

[mhall0709]

[Hogwit]

3:13 to 3:18 did he just randomly lose service? (or was it because he changed a setting dealing with the service)

[Hogwit]

Have you had any issues with posting onto social networking sites such as Facebook, or any others?

[Hogwit]

Never did anything with that data usage widget.

[ayooleon]
