asian, of course

Was looking into getting one soon.. Price I was quoted was RM1750 +8G memory card and screen protector... Is it acceptable right now?

And 1 question, is it possible to be connected to Skype on Jet?

zephyr, that price is acceptable enough. maybe you can try to nego with seller a bit..

current price range of samsung jet rm1500-1888(ori RRP)

redblaque, thanks for the reply..

Encountered another store today which offered at RM1600, but the salesman looks kinda blur...

Another thing, which company is the authorised distributor of Samsung Jet? I asked earlier, and seems like the standard answer is Samsung-loh... Pffftttt!!!

the authorised distributor of Samsung is FMG and Brighstar.. and all are original, no AP. i asked so many sellers already.. they say the same thing so i believe them now. heheh

unless u see the brand on the phone say SUMSANG or SAMSENG then confirm la not ori.. keke

when i bought the phone i asked so many questions, but the seller usually don't know much abt the technical things, just the basic2 stuff only. they say if more technical better ask ppl at samsung service center lorr.. cehh

mind telling the rm1600 package includes?

i bought mine at rm1660 with a 2gb int memory & 4gb ext memory (east M'sia).. most seller won't let me go further than that.. i tried to bargained with an 8gb mem card! boo~

RM1600 just standard package... But I guess I could sweet-talk for at least a screen protector.. LOLZ..

Anyway, back to the first question, can Skype be accessed through Jet?

can i noe if i browse the internet those , example .....abc.com page cost 100kb space ...... then will save to my phone ?

Hello guys,

Happen to bump in here so thought I may ask around. I recently got a samsungjetS8003 outright from a singapore mobile shop (with warranty) as my old phone refused to work for a while. Now that it has resumes its job so I am planning to release this jet RM 1500 with all the equipments that came together.

Condition of the phone? A lady user here so you may expect it to be as brand new as it can be

Do let me know(pm me) if you are keen!

i got my Jet at rm1850.
thats about 1 month ago.
my sweet talk and i got;
-16Gb SDCard ^^
-screen protector (the thick one)
-in car charger

wyy: Try selling in Garage Sales... Would be keen to grab it if only the warranty covers Malaysia as well..

halimismail: Do you have Skype or Fring working on your Jet?

if u need standalone apps for hotmail, theres none..

better u explore everything about Samsung JET before buyin it..JET only support JAVA apps. Theres java mini opera but dont think theres any safari..

I am planning to sell off my Brighstar Ori Samsung Jet, 1 month and 1 week old. full set, scratchless as new. Rm 1400 only. any takers?

Reasons for sale = not used to the Samsung UI.

thank you.

yup, as dauf87 said,
any java-based apps can be used with Jet.
but i'm not into java apps, and currently waiting for
Samsung Apps Store to support
apps for Jet

maybe Jet users can post the price bought? and with the place too. So, future Jet buyer can use as a reference . (thats include me this)

Like an example below:

price : RM1600
place : Lowyat main entrance (try 2 b detail)
package : 16gb sd card, screen protector, car charger, extra battery, extended warranty...etc ( joke mode )

Answer from Samsung Apps Store. may you judge yourself.

my question;

Hello all,

sorry for this uncategorizes enquiries,

i'm just wondering when will this appstore support Samsung Jet S8000?
the lame Jet issues at internet will be solved if this store
cover applications and widgets for Samsung Jet.

Thank you in advance for your responses.

the answer;

Dear Customer,

Thank you for contacting Samsung Application Store. We appreciate the opportunity to assist you.

Unfortunately you can't use Samsung Application Store to download applications for your Samsung Jet phone. Samsung Application Store supports only Windows and Symbian operating systems. The Samsung Jet has its own operating system. That is the reason why your phone will not be supported on Application Store.

Nevertheless, you can find and download contents for your Samsung Jet mobile phone. Please, check available content for your phone on the website www.samsungmobile.co.uk or on your phone : wap.samsungmobile.co.uk

If you have any further question, please do not hesitate to contact us or you also may want to check out our answers to Frequently Asked Questions, which can be found at the Support menu of Application Store.

Thank you for using our services. Your satisfaction is very important for us.

Such a turn off... Am setting my sights on to Omnia 2 now...

yea.. a turn off! but i see that coming. i knew phones that aren't on Symbian or WM won't have much apps.. but for average person who's used to SE/LG/simple Nokia phones will appreciate the beauty of the device.. it is a fast touchscreen phone, beats the speed of Omnia for some reason. had it for over a week now- never lags on me, never had major glitch. for an average user, this phone is the best BASIC touchscreen phone with SPECS similar to a smartphone ie. 3G, 5MP camera, Wifi, bluetooth. basic stuff, but a bit pricey for now..

pls dont expect much on Samsung Jet~ it's not a smartphone afterall..

i predict the price of the Jet will go slightly cheaper at a faster rate compared to the other Samsungs run on Symbian/WM. but the tech specs are still considered as upper mid-range, so maybe the price won't go below rm1000 for at least til Q1 2010. just my opinion..

So if anybody is getting one, you can hold a bit for the price to drop, but i can assure you won't regret getting one. if you can afford it now, just get it if you need a new phone. don't expect you can install apps like you can on a Symbian/WM phone~ if u're too lazy to explore the world of Symbian/WM phones, the Jet is the one for u.. hehehe. i'm thinking that the Jet is most suitable for the ladies bcos of its slim figure and fits perfectly in my hands when i'm using it..

again, since you can run JAVA apps on the Jet, you can technically install anything JAVA-based on it. there are many JAVA apps out there~

i think in previous discussion here, its already clear that for samsung touchwiz OS, the SDK is only for WIDGET..not full application for TouchWiz..

seriously, the interenet surfing is slow and nt very sensitive when scrolling and clickign around

i've tested the Jet, so far i only experience 1-2 buttons that are really stubborn.. i've to pin point with a stylus for it to respond. i think this can be fixed with a software upgrade. otherwise, 'touching' the Jet is no problem at all.

internet slow is not the phone's fault, rather something to do with the service provider. i have tested the Jet with my wi-fi at home, pages load quite fast. youtube loads okay, but takes a while for the video to play.

sometimes while browsing u got to zoom in (press anywhere for 1-2 secs > scroll up) so that u can really 'click' on the links (by touching with ur finger). if u don't zoom in, sometimes there's no respond.. maybe because the finger is too big, so the phone thought u're clicking elsewhere.. heheh. the 'touch' interface of the Jet relies on the pressure of your finger rather than heat. if the Jet is the only means for u to browse the web, it is better to use a stylus..
