I plan to purchase micro SDHC card 2day. Any recommendations on brand/size/price? Do u need 2 off the phone to mount d card? I have no experience with SD card.

Cameras would benefit the most from faster transfer rates. 

how to know the class of the memory card? 

Just fill in the membership form and pay rm12 at SENQ
i also just bought Galaxy W from SenQ, RM1080 (3 yrs warranty+kingston 16GB class4 microSD+jabra bluetooth headset and member discound RM50 + senQ voucher)

I left the phone idle for 11 hours already. 3% drain.

Hi TS, please include me in the user's list. I bought this phone for my wife in Melaka, white colour. Cost is $999 which is market price for place like Mahkota Parade. I'm not complaining though, its very pretty and suitable for ladies user. Never liked the Galaxy S or S II because its too bloody big. W fits just nice on the palm and its lightweight is probably due to the plastic materials for its body. Also since its not gorilla glass, its probably more durable, although I can't say its scratch proof.

Too bad there is no casing or screen protector for this model available yet. Hoping to get one very soon. Afraid of the white body to get smudges.

Amazing phone from Samsung!

You can get SGW at Best Denki Tropicana City Mall. RM799 with one year warranty.

Nearby kiosks selling RM999.

They accept AMEX. So can get 5% cash rebate at weekends for Maybank AMEX.

Cheers ....

hohoho IwanGP lurking here for so long already. I wonder how you tahan

No kidding.

Got this SGW yesterday at RM799.  Next to it in the same shelf is SG Ace selling RM799 too.

Tot it is wrong price.  Bought the SGW at RM799.

Cheers ....

believe it or not, I just switched from galaxy s2 to this phone. 2 weeks ago I bought a white galaxy s2 but to my disappointment it has poor reception and hangs frequently needing me to long press the power button to restart it. in the 2 weeks of use it hanged more than 10 times. the reception was awful. normally in places where my old desire hd would get full bars the galaxy s2 only manages 2 bars. sold it at minimal loss and got this phone. very happy with the performance considering the price. only grouse is it does not have auto ambient light.

touch focus? But my xperia pro don't have this feature.. (but at gsmarena states that my phone and galaxy w have touch focus feature too)

Not sure on continous AF, but yes on autofocus

and YES TOO, nokia should be ashame of their N8 for not having touch focus!

why are you all arguing over a Symbian phone? It's a Symbian OS phone guys... useless.. compare for wat..    only camera can use.. others all lap sap..

Nokia Map rocks on Symbian , and FM transmitter

other than that..I agree with you.

Nokia Maps
Nokia is buying digital mapmaker Navteq for $8 billion. (See WSJ coverage here).  Navteq powers many in-car navigation services, but it is also one of the providers of mapping data used in Google Maps. Every mobile device should include mapping services. It’s a natural fit. But will Nokia try to charge extra for this or will every future Nokia phone come with free maps? You can already get Navteq-powered Google Maps on many phones today like the iPhone or the Blackberry. It’s becoming a killer app for phones. Nokia could try to charge Google a whole lot more for the Navteq maps, but that might just drive Google deeper into the arms of its other map vendor, Tele Atlas. The smart move for Nokia would be to negotiate with Google to share in any future map-based advertising revenues in return for distributing the mobile version of Google Maps with every new Nokia phone. (The cell phone carriers would have to be brought into the negotiations and given a cut as well, but it could be done). That way, consumers would get free maps and a reason to stick with Nokia. And Nokia won’t have to try to beat Google at its own game. Google has a much better chance of figuring out mobile advertising than Nokia, and its mapping software already has a huge following among both consumers and developers. → Read More

I can confirm that the root guide give in xda forum is safe for our galaxy W

I had done it, no problems.

I guess if ur phone is the same version as mine, there shud not be any problems too.
I was worried to root my phone, i had bricked my previous phone a galaxy mini before.
But the temptation to be able to use apps that needs root is too strong.

good thing is, i m just gonna stop by this stage
if the cpu wasn't already tebo to 1.4ghz, i would already be searching for how to overclock it.
overclocking on the galaxy mini is fun, 825mhz and the battery drains like shit

I do dl the 1080P Full HD video but cannot play..even i try on my previous Galaxy Tab 7 and my shop demo set Galaxy Tab 10.1 also can't.I think it's for PC?I'm using the Tube X software to dl the youtube videos..and mostly only 720P quality i will dl it on my hp..cos wan to attract my customers using my W.Haha *I'm a smartphone salesman in Samsung Digital Centre by the way..so i always make sure my W always ready for demo use to attract my customers!  *

Why download 720p or 1080p videos? The phone can only display 800x480 resolution only what

Did u guys notice that lately it's hard for us to install those apps and update some apps in market using wifi?It just loading there without doing anything.And i just realize we need to use 3G line to update and dl some apps that cant we use Wifi like before..anyone can explain that?Just wondering. :/

720P=Super CLEAR!So that i can attract my customers.LOL the lower resolution quality sux le..zzz of cos i will dl the best quality for my own phone la.

Same here..i can't seem to find much information about the xperia neo v.The design of the phone looks slick plus it supports hdmi out.

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.

i got mine and it stated 2 years.. XX NOV 2011 - XX NOV 2013..

well you can try to do the maths yourself.. RM899 from garage sales for example.. RM51 for all those extra things for you.. do you think its worth it?.. just for your price references.. 8GB microsd roughly costs 6x-7x.. 4GB idk maybe 4x-5x..

i think its not bad..

i already call them,and they said new price is rm920..include 4gb,and bla2..btw thx 

i am a bit confuse with this GSM/WCMDA thingy..my phone network mode is GSM/WCDMA (Auto mode)..just wondering if i change it to GSM only will it affect my data coverage etc?

I m not using data plan, so should i set GSM only instead of auto mode??

Previously i just off the "use packet data", But digi still charge me rm200+ for Internet. Issit my fault? I going to digi center tml, can i argue with them so i no need to pay for it??

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."
