Good: the orange colour! the touch screen!

Bad: powersave cannot be altered.

Comment: i bought this cell phone because it was orange and i love it. i like the touch screen feature and the backgrounds.
i took pictures and video footage from floor 124 on the Burj Khalifa in Dubai and i'm impressed. the pictures are better than i expected from a 2mp camera.
i love my cell phone and i'd certainly buy another Samsung.

I own it

Comment: The phone is extremely slow sometimes like when you receive a text and need to unlock the phone, 1 it takes time for the phone to light up the screen then takes longer to actually unlock the phone and then to read the text message, I could have replied in the time it had taken to do those three things on a Sony Ericsson.

Good: Large touchscreen, easy navigation, price.

Bad: Touchscreen slow and unresponsive, slow when Social Networking applications open, slow, web browser, unlock keys.

Comment: I have had this phone since May. I bought it because I used my friends phone and like the Social Networking applications and the feel of the phone. I enjoy the 'fashion jackets' but they are built cheaply and you have to pay for better ones. The touchscreen was fast and responsive at first but after a while it has become slow and unresponsive, the screen unlock key (button and touch) are slow and take a long time if you are on the music player. The phone is really slow if you have lots of music/images/videos and the web browser is slow, crashes a lot and doesn't have tabbed browsing. On the whole this is a cheap phone for people with cheap tastes!
