THIS PHONE IS CRAP! i am on my third one. i wish i listened to the at&t guy that told me not to buy it but i did anyway and thank god i got the insurance with it. The phone randomly reboots and turns off and sometimes the screen goes black for a couple of seconds. NEVER will i ever ever ever buy a samsung again
im getting a new phone in march (finally!!!!!!!!!!!!!) but im stuck between the mythic and the solstice...witch one should i get i want one that wont lagg and is good for txting ??
@mechanic7866 those are people that mistreat there phones thats only reason is malfunctions if you keep it nice mabye put a screen protector and a case on it , it will be fine :)
I want this a lot but the only thing that worries me is the apparent slowness of the device. Anybody have it and can tell me how quick or slow it is? Thanks.
I'm highly considering this phone,.....but haven't made a last decision between this, solstice, and other slide phones. The headphone jack, gmail feature, and camera really got me on this phone
This phone is brings the biggest competition for iPhone 3GS in terms of my choices
Im switching to AT&T from Verizon in June..and fucking god wow I saw this phone in the store...just amazing!!! Reminds me of the iPhone a little bit and it seems so nice and light too!!! I can not wait to get this phone big time!
I tested this phone out at the AT&T store today and I was very very fast. way faster than my iphone. some features of the interface is nice while others need improvement. this phone was only $300 with no contract, the rep offered it to me for $175 with new 2yr contract. Im gonna wait to see what the iphone 4G has to offer otherwise my love affair with my iphone is getting stale.
well you could get it but you need a 2 year contract to have it work. and as for the data and text its only 30 monthly for unlimited plus this cellphone can be use as a moden via bluethood over link without getting extra charge on your bill (that is only if you have unlimited data and never download from turrets or p2p, they can track that) and well its a mobile 3g connection that can cover practically anywere, fast enough to even play xbox live. if someone is interested tell me before ding it.
got diz phone yesterday is awsome even though i didnt get the data in wich it would of made the phone better prefoming its still awsome the music vlume, touch screan is good, key bord well u gotta get used to it , awsome phone 4.5/5
Before my birthday, I was thinking about wanting this, the Solstice, or the Impression. But, because of the slide-out qwerty keyboard, I went with the Impression. I know that phone doesn't have a 3.5 mm headphone jack, a micro usb (not proprietary) connector, and the latest version of TouchWiz. You can check out my review of the Impression by just searching "samsung impression review saxman112". I just have one question now. Is it possible to get the latest TouchWiz for the Impression?
I have the phone and i like it but there is no way to change the screen saver and that sucks bec there are two pic one of a butterfly and a flower and they are kinda girly but other then that it texts well and calls well and i can look at my facebook :)
@CoolMan22188 I had the same problem. i went to the at&t store to get the impression, but the Impression was sold out, and she showed me the Mythic and i fell in love with the phone. But they're all almost the same only, the Mythic has the accelerometer built-in and the QWERTY keyboard is on screen (Tilt screen to get the keyboard) and handwriting mode. The only problem is that the speed and Performance on the Mythic lags behind the Solstice and the Impression, but the Mythic is my favorite.
i have a question. i wna get this phone but i have tmobile plan. so can i just buy this phone somewhere else and just put my tmobile sim card in?
i have internet and unlimited texting for the tmobile plan. and i have no clue what's the data plan for at@t so i'm sorta confused. someone PLEASE help me out bc i rlly need a new phone atm.
if i can put my sim card in this phone, where can i buy it? for how much? thanks for a bunch! <3
Have you seen the Samsung Solstice? Do you know what the major difference is? I'm not sure which to get...it seems the mythic is slower and has 3 homescreens, is that the only difference?
the mythic is a smart phone and the solstice is a feature phone the mythic requires a $30 data plan and the solstice doesn't but software is practically the same
I just bought the mythic a few hours ago from wirefly, and then I stumbled across this video. I was able to just renew my contract, and I got the mythic for free (but i have to pay an $18 activation fee). I wasn't able to do it online though, so I called them up. After a bunch of upsells, I submitted my order. They charged me $1 which they said they would refund.
The mythic for $18.. hard to beat that. Not sure how long the deal's gonna last though
Oh, because I'm with AT&T now and my plan doesnt end till march. I want this phone or the solstice for xmas and i think i'm going to buy the phone full price and just switch sim cards..but i would like internet but i dont think i can do that if im just going to do that...
Not sure if my last comment posted or not, because it's not showing up.
But if you're not extending your contract.. buy the mythic from @m@z0n. You can get it there for only $50.
And yes, you can get the internet on this phone. I know on the family plan you can get unlimited data for this phone for only $10/month per line. Not sure how much it is on an individual plan, but probably $10 or $15 a month.
UPDATE: Today (12/5/09), wirefly is offering free activation as well. So if you're extending your contract, you can get this phone for absolutely free.
I haven't gotten the phone yet, in fact it won't ship until Monday, but I'll let you know how it is once I do get it
After a few days of the using the phone, I really enjoy it. It is a little laggy sometimes, but it doesn't happen often and when it does it's only for a second.
Theoretically, the Impression would be better cuz it has the keyboard and touchscreen. But look on att's customer reviews about the complaints of how bad the keyboard glitches and needs to be reset several times a day. Solstice has very bad call quality with loud echos that make annoy you and the other caller. Mythic has none of those problems above and is my choice based on that, feel free to research a different opinion tho :]
i really want this phone, one question, does the IM software (AIM, Live Messenger, Yahoo Messenger) go into the text messaging plan, or the data plan?
i have the palm centro, this phone is a MAJOR upgrade from it but is it that same as the samsung eternity? i ask b/c my friend has it, i played around with it, didnt like it very much so i checked out the impression and that's the exact same as the eternity. I love new features on phones, Somebofy plz tell me this is not just another reincarnation for the samsung touch screens
Yeah seems like the Solstice is a bit faster on loading the GUI and not choppy like the Mythic, but the Mythic is newer, full HTML, and actually has a Headset jack. But is a little bit slow on loading Menus. HARD TO CHOOSE, Stuck with the same option
saw this... I have one and just decided to :P!
