probably those who owns this phone might not agree with me.

to me, i am still holding on to buy this phone is due to wait for latest phone f/w update, which is here d

the other is h/w issue. sorry guys, to me, some how samsung phones gives me the impression that it will not last even how careful u take care of it

I want to ask...

I was using K810i previously, and now I want to transfer my contacts, I mean all 400 of them into my new Jet, how do I do it?

Ive tried 'Send all contacts bia bluetooth' and what I got was only 300 contacts were transfered, and all ended up with front and names mixed up and with /1 at the end of their names.

How do I do it nice and clean, all 400 contacts at once?
Like if my contact name in K810i was 'James Bond', how do I maintain it to be 'James Bond' in my JET? Without me needing to rename everything and rechecking if all my contacts are there...

I'd used Jet before..
Yes, it's normal...
And you have to edit them one by one..

OMGoodness! Samsung Wave is coming soon, HTC releasing a string of Touch screen phones -and it's NOT WinMO - Wohooo!!!! Hmmm, shld i Still get the jet? Other phones have super Amoled, 720p recording, have an OS (Bada, Android..anything but WinMO) which can have future upgrades and application and 1GHZ micropro. But they would all be pricey and may take a looong time to hit our shore

What is smarter than smartphone means in Samsung JET?? :

1) Samsung JET have 800MHz processor : comparing to all popular SMARTPHONE like iPhone 3GS(600MHz), HTC Touch HD(528MHz). HTC Touch Pro2 (528MHz), SE Xperia (5528MHz), Samsung Omnia(624MHz)

Ok fine

2) Samsung JET have Exchange ActiveSync : this is the 1st non-smart phone that have this function. Samsung integrate it seamlessly with its TouchWiz UI.

Err what diff with Normal ActveSync

3) AMOLED screen + 16 mil colours + 3.1 inch + 480x800 resolution:

i don't see the different than HTC HD2/Diamond2.

4) MULITASKING : this is one of the great features of Samsung JET.

Err All WinMo can Multitasking what.

5) Dolfin Internet Browser + One finger zoom function :

Using my lappie. Opera Mobile Beta 3 more superb.

6) Navigation software : only in Europe model.

"This the biggest mistake, Malaysian look for as many feat. in 1 phone. Without A-GPS and Jet totally failed.


1) Samsung use its newly develop UI and proprietary OS : ToucWiz..it means that (right now, later Samsung will allow new application to be install) no extra application can be install in it. Unlike the smartphone, there are already thousand applications u can install. In Samsung JET, u can only add JAVA application.

What, Rm1700 only for Java? Phailed.

2) No editing of PDF, Power Point and Word files. Samsung Jet can only view it.
How come thei claim smarter than smart phone, smart phone should support many applications, for working person no editting for power point and word? How can it be smart if can't edit? Even outlook also can't setting for incoming or outgoing services.

Phailed, without AGPS, no edit & less software. Better get HTC la

No!! Please.. Don't buy Samsung S8000 or Jet.. 1 day, You'll regret for buying it..
Please don't.. Be patient, and buy these upcoming truly smartphones!!
Anyway, HTC Hero had been nominated as Mobile Phone of The Year 2009!!

Added on February 18, 2010, 2:15 pmJet got GPS software named as Route66.. And got Asian Pacific map.. But it totally failed.. Easily to auto reboot the phone itself..
Yeah, true!! Anyway, HTC Hero had been named as Mobile Phone of The Year 2009!!

Hey guys i might be getting jet this monday. but still wondering whether its worth getting samsung jet for 1.2-1.4k.
any upcoming smartphones with budget around 1.5k"? as i dun wanna be regretting over the purchase.

No!!!
Don't!! Later u'll regret bro..
Prefer samsung omnia II..Can get at around 1500-1800..
Please... I beg u..

Don't waste your money in this hp la,even a lot better if you get HTC diamond 1. Yeah the proc might slower, but the all of the applications & functions that count.

Smartphone get it's name cause they r really smart. Smart people can do a lot of things like Chuck, not like bimbo blond, only pretty, nice to touch, friendly user but 0 knowledge, functionless brain & failed! Paris who?!

Wow...so many people rejecting this phone now. Very pricey for an own branded "smartphone" which is not that smart after all.

how much would a omnia 2 cost?
i can top up till 1.6k-1.7k there.
nth more then that.
price check for omnia 2 pls.
if more exp then 1.7k then i have to go with samsung jet +(
or any other suggestion for 1.5k budget

go and get ur self a 2nd hand HTC Hero..
worth every $ u pay for.

first you never use jet but ask people to but jet...

LG and samsung normal os will get you bored in no time as there is not much applications and games available for download compare to winmo and symbian os, for screen KO normal is due to rough handling, put in jean and forgot either seat on it or cross leg and apply to much pressure to the screen or rough people (lembu punya orang, check their previous phone, if banyak scratches, dents-this people cannot use touchscreen phone...) usage only can damage the screen, that's from my observation so far since 2008 nov....

-camera i admit it's not good loh

-slow processor but movie playing are so smooth and even samsung omnia 2 can't match the smoothness same movie file, don't tell me about the helicopter HD demo in samsung omnia 2 which is so clear and smooth.

-OS not mature, how mature you want an os to be as it will always evolving, like wm5 then wm6.0, wm6.5, wm7, every os is evolving......for me it's gets better with every firmware upgrade in which nokia is good at and available worldwide, samsung susahloh, some can upgrade online but 99% have to sent to SC to upgrade or reinstall.

Anyway...cheers...no hard feelings.

I love it!! Until now, many people already hate with Samsung Jet!! Especially former users..
Samsung still in making smartphone especially for so called 'smartphone' S8000..
Wait for their latest BADA OS phone, Samsung Wave.. Are they really willing to compete with other OS developer or just give it a try and will participate in hall of shame..

although the advert shows "smarter than smartphone" but it is not a smart phone...if u want more aps and better organiser apps...go for winmo phone...

Android tooooo!!!

already sold my jet and get htc hd2...

waa..this thread is somewhat about 800 post already?!

i can see here so many people bashing samsung phones..especially JET..
while they also DONT REALIZE that JET runs Samsung's propietary OS..Samsung propietary OS is NOT a smartphone OS..how can you compare JET fully with Symbian?with iphone?with WinMo?you cant compare it fully..JET still belongs in a non-smartphone category..

if u still want to compare JET with other phone, u can but compare JET with Nokia phone without Symbian OS, compare JET with HTC without WinMo or Android OS in it(is there any?i'm not sure)..

...while i admit there r flaws with JET but do you know why Samsung call JET as smarter as smartphone..becos it runs non-smartphone OS and at the same time it have some capability of Smartphone OS.. JET is some kind of phone that narrows the gap between non-smartphone with smartphone with its features...

if you're a geek and users of smartphone..surely u will not be impress with the features of JET becos u have seen it in ur smartphone..

about Samsung hardware..Samsung's hardware is one of the best out there...
Most of the new technology within mobile phone is initiated/innovated by Samsung..

FYI, Iphone using Samsung processor...
SE phone using Samsung's camera hardware..
AMOLED/SUPER AMOLED all build/created/innovated by Samsung...and many more..

So i can say, the best part of Samsung phones is in its hardware...

Samsung's software, is quite new and they just build their own smartphone OS;BADA..

So if u want to fully compare HTC, WinMo, Android, Iphone with Samsung's phone..wait for BADA OS...

JET is not for a geek, smartphone users..its for people who want some simple phone and basic smartphone capability within their phone..

JET is still one of the best non-smartphone out there...
