with adobe reader can but dun expect it to be super speedy

you are gravely mistaken my friend. processor is not the only thing. the major thing is the storage on the neo v is only 320 MB compared to galaxy w's 2 GB usb storage. of course you can extend with microsd but out of the box galaxy w can stand on its own at least without a card. that alone is a big enough selling point for anyone.

internal/usb storage beats external storage la come on..you're like saying a 16gb internal storage is just as good as a 1gb internal storage where you can just add in a 16gb external microsd to fight / compensate.

yup you are right. not much can be done on this issue. the processor is also another big reason why people are buying this device. Its pure numbers. Processor is better than Neo V and the storage is larger (although not necessarily better) than the Neo V. When the consumer sees this - obviously the Samsung Galaxy W is the more preferred choice.

why i keep hearing you guys complain about sms and call issues? my wife using the same phone and on digi also, so far havent heard her complain yet...

will have to check with my wife after another week or so to confirm if ok or not ok but she calls her mom and sisters quite often this week, so far no complaints. will keep u guys informed.

this might make sense, my wife is always on 2G / GSM mode only, so maybe could try on 2G/GSM mode if not already in that mode and see if got difference?

this only works in honeycomb and ICS - its called USB host. what do you mean by OTG??

Update: NVM, what u mean is USB on the go..as I mentioned, only supported by honeycomb and ICS. Gingerbread doesnt support this AFAIK

oh..i didnt know that. my mistake. i thought only honeycomb and ics supports this natively..maybe samsung and SE did some modifications to the OS to add the support in

you're either using 3G turned on / wifi / GPS / bluetooth left turned on. my wife's SGW didnt charge for 1 day still left 64% yesterday. Of course she just use for normal call and sms.

u get full 2 GB internal storage place. I am using Nexus One and I also got thought of selling it to buy Galaxy W but I think Nexus One / HTC Desire still better cos u can use the full external SD without rooting whereas for galaxy W to use the external SD for games like gameloft data u need to be rooted to run some script to do some mapping and stuff..

bingo. well explained. i was confused at first when i saw my wife's phone but after seeing the filesystem structure i understood it finally..

i guess so...i didnt do extensive research on this, maybe searching through google or xda forums might give us the answer to this riddle

yes i think press and holding the power button will restart the phone. most newer phones should have this feature including iphone i believe.

i just spoke with my wife asking her about call quality, sms issues, etc - she never faced any of that..call quality is ok, no issues...so i guess its either your phone really got problem or the area you are using got problem..btw my wife is on digi prepaid..also no sms failed to send issues whatsoever either...

that's what i'm thinking..

another review of Galaxy W :

http://www.mobilityfeeds.com/mobility-feed...one-review.html

Here's what they mentioned about the call quality:
"Call quality was very good in our tests.
The volume was loud, voices sounded strong, clear, and true, though a tiny bit hazy, and there wasn't any other regular background noise.
We did intermittently hear an odd high-frequency whine, though it wasn't disruptive enough to throw off the conversational flow.
It was more or less the same story on the caller's end as well, with strong volume and a clear background line, plus voice quality that was a tad muddy around the edges.

Speakerphone was very loud for both parties when we held the phone at waist level, a plus in this case since this regular test caller has noted that other phones slice volume in half.
Still, our voice sounded distant and echoey to our caller, who added that they didn't want to maintain a longer conversation over it if they didn't have to.
The echo was also apparent on our end, but less so, and the line remained clear, without background interruptions or blips."

you're right..this is the special 4G version..i guess maybe that's why its clearer..haha.my bad

today my wife's phone kena fail to send sms..using WCDMA aka 3G..if u use 2G/GSM no problem..but have to try 2-3 times then ok...looks like either this phone 3g got problem OR it is digi 3G got problem..either way if u use GSM should be fine

i'm not sure it is the phone problem or digi network problem so lets just jump to conclusions.

iPhone ok? remember iPhone's "don't hold it this way" issue with the stupid antenna for iphone 4 problem? yeah iphone no problem.
