this is really nice. wonder if it can play videos.

so cheap? RM800 only?

but the design doesn't seem to have class......looks plain

at least, it wont like Samsung traditional design (sini curve..sana curve..). Sometime, plain+neat = perfect, at least to me

its look small than K618

Rm800?? so cheap wor...3MP wor....the looks ok la..i give it 5/10

the design is........ err.. dunno how to say... take out ppl tot is rm100 china phone.

hmm if jus see the keypad still ok
but when see the whole thing looks weird to me
it is like it is missing something

Agreed that it looks as if something is missing.. I like the back design though.. looks really nice

not bad, plain but its nice. is the OS and the function inside good? if it is, 800 is reasonable.

I jus noticed the center keypads are slightly lower than those at the right and left.. Jasper Morrison really is unique in his imagination..

low profile
but if inside good.. haha

I know what's missing. The top is round and bald. That gives the odd feeling.

more like a rm10 kids phone

its more of a simple design, doesnt concentrate on complexity. that makes it unique.

Plain and simple is nice. But the black is bold black, boring.

Somehow looks like SE w610i.

But for the price of RM800, it is a bargain for a phone with 3mp and if the speaker is good as said.

Its kinda small in size.. but it has a lrage display..

who knows the specs of this phone?

Let's see will the camera will be as nice as all the 3MP phone available at market.

It would be nicer if it is not in dull black. Looks like plastic.

bro...i do agree with u
hahaha....just go to pasar malam look for this phone...

for me,the design of samsung if not really suitable for a men but a women
all slim type..it's hard for men to hold or look after it...

IMO, slim phone will be easier to carry. I prefer slim phone even I'm a guy

slim phone - jeans/pants pocket friendly.

wonder tis 3MP AF is same wif my U600 3.2MP AF????

but slim phone always make me think very girlish for guy
ehehhe...just my 2 cent..no offense

like dummy phone.... can push button... but nothing happen

released ?

when ? where?

i love black colour phone . but black e590 design is really unacceptable to me
however the white 1 looks hell alot nicer . 3.0 Megapixel Auto Focus Camera with Half Shutter , what does half shutter means anyway?

But these features with the price...where else to find one?

somthing looks so wrong on the keypad...
but tht sos msg auto time settings sounds great...

Saw this in newspaper yesterday. Wonder is there any live photo if it. And photo shot by this device.

rear view is nice - simple, tidy and clean...
but the front part look a bit errr not so canggih..

3.0MP wor!

its value for money phone

i saw it in one of the hp shops near me,rm840, black colour set. but i like the white set. looks nicer. black set looks, um, really like a 3 yr old toy. xD

and IMO, i think its ok for guys to take this, doesnt look girlish though. =)

Any live photo shot by this thing?

i've seen some on mobiledaily review. quite clear pic.

Comparable with k800?

heck cannot compare with k800 xD cos it has AF and XENON flash xD according to the specs, E590 dont have flash >.< but i see outdoor shots are quite nice. well, i'm no photo expert so i think its quite clear.

No lar... I mean under sunlight... Xenon flash does not help at all if under sunlight. E590 have AF in it rite? As i read thru the review.

yup got AF, i've tried the set b4, hold it and feel it, its really like toy xD 66 grams, it really REALLY light >.< plus its very small in size as i think it is.

its a phone to look to, but hope more users come in to give the camshots, this phone got my attention =)

Some LIVE Photos n Comparison with S500i * taken with N7390













Heard my fren saying some end users complained that it does somehow looks like a "dummy" phone, borin design..
even with the cheap price for a 3Mp mobile, i don think it wont be a blast in sales.. imo...

anyone actually has snapshots using the phone? any users here? I know its out in my area.

i got my new E590 yesterday, its really simple, small & cute

design quite weird ,macam those cheap and low class hp


but hp 3mp ,geng

anyone got this phones shots? does the 3mp meets the standard?

hhmm.....i think the design is quite like those good old days phones.....

It caught my eyes...
Look nice to me,
but hows the performance?

gsmarena feedback

is this limited edition?

i love the bean bag...

Nope。。

Samsung package with the bean bag rite?

yeap.. bean bag comes together i suppose.. samsung no AP set also.. nobody gonna remove it..
btw.. wat half shutter means?

ic, i thought its limited edition.

if limited edition, its really worth to buy it. ha.......

IMO, by the spec + pricing abt Rm800 + (the most important ) samsung change the traditional design, is another good choice.

Hi guys.. Just bought this after my W810i just stolen by a gang of rempit.. stupid


Yeah.. I love this phone at first sight as I was suppose to buy K810i at the first place.

Camera wise, yeah.. its decent but for a phone function, I think its a great deal and have all the function I need. And quick sms as its almost like Sony Ericson.

9/10 for this phone as I dont use 3g anyway.

Will post some picture tomorrow as still charging the phone. lol


RM800 for FMG phone and wow.. this is first time i do sync with a phone so easily.

Hi guys. Just got this phone yesterday to replace my W810i. And suprisingly not much ppl using this one. Kinda like the small key pad and the simple design of the phone .

Chosen this phone over K810i and N73 music edition and I dunno why as first touch of the real phone, really got me. lol..

Will post in some pic later of the day from some snap shot and seriously this phone syncing with pc is the easiest for all the phone I owned before.

Congrats


Congrats

my gawd... what has he done to the phone ... great specs.. just that is it true ..?... now .. who wanna be guinea pig n test the phone camera n speakers.. ?

Sample of photo taken by E590 yesterday. Enjoy.

pics are nice but macro is blurry

Shop in SS2 quoted RM860 by credit card, is it too expensive?

Congrats Tsukasa

E590...doesn't has Macro?


Should be around that as most of the shop won't cover the additional 2-3% card charged

if i'm not wrong , this should be pavillion aight?

Yeah.. Hihi.. I got it for RM799 from Shop in Sg wang. Yeah. its original FMP as i register my phone in Samsung.com.my.

Heard if you go for service you need to present ori battery and original phone or they wont service ur phone.

Erm. the camera part.. yeah it have macro and I duno when to use macro and when not to use macro. It even have ISO setting from 100 to 400. Hehe.. Kinda nice after I play with all the setting as it really like a real camera. And 3mp for RM799.. I think its a steal and i love the big screen and the PDF, word and excel viewer. Make my job easier sometimes. and the schedule alarm. Down side is only 4 sms tone which is darn fast. Hehe..

Will post more pic later. Snap alot of pic lately and its kinda nice. lol

can't assign custom tone to sms/call alert tone?

Nope sms tone .

Call alert like any mp3 or any sound file you can find tough.

Any casing available for E590 apart from soft transparent cover?

Erm.. dont think so.. but kinda ok as used it for a month ady... Good phone with all the feature I need.. Better than my Dual Touch HTC.. got me dizzy and hang if i press alot of button together.. lol

Added on January 6, 2008, 11:10 pmHow to test.. But Ive been using it for more than 1 month now and its still running superbly and it sync well with my Samsung P2 mp3 player. Hehe.. Good combination ya,

Added on January 17, 2008, 10:03 pmWow.. looks like this phone is really not so popular as I very seldom see ppl use this phone.. Sob.. But very happy with it now and even pair it with my YP P2.. lol.. Excellent partner for this phone I can say. lol

Hi, any Samsung E590 here know how to get screen protector n crystal case for this phone?

pm me please

thanks......

alternative way, go car tint shop apply some small unwanted tint flim portion diy for ur e590

thanks man for useful info, im using other SC for other phone then i cut it . hehehe.....


but, how bout crystal case?

how to get it?

Its really hard to find accecories for this special edition phone. =(

ya, maybe market quite rare on this model...

ermm... wanna ask.. what so nice about this phone? i mean what is the feature that made this stand out? any owner care to explain? i dont mean to be sarcastic but really, i see basic phone feature, basic but clean design and tri-band phone with pricetag of a 3g phone nowadays. well, old 3g models of course; new one now still at least 1.1k ...

---

Added on March 24, 2008, 8:59 amthats expensive... well, just expensive by rm50 & <...

a macro is used when you find one object that has good details to show e.g flowers with insect on... ISO setting is to control the amount of light being captured into the photo.

that is samsung's fav setting. its been years....

paired with YP P2? sorry, but is it that your mp3 player has bluetooth and ur phone is paired with it?

This post has been edited by Seaedge: Mar 24 2008, 08:59 AM

this phone pricing around or below Rm800 redy

soli leh... i didnt notice the date.
nvm la.. i already posted

very cute the design..

Yup. If you compare to the time I buy last year. Its kinda pack with lotsa feature that is just basic for daily use. As I don't use my Handphone for music and just normal sms and calling ppl. And taking pic is secondary option.

What I meant with pairing with my P2 is I can bluetooth it to my mp3 player and use my mp3 player to call out as its one of Samsung P2 function. lol. Can't wait for Sony Ericsson new 8.1mp phone once my phone has past it date.

But seriously after more than 9 months using it, Battery is still good and I drop it alot of times and nothing seems to go wrong yet. Hence I can say built quality is superb. lol

Any model that have 3g with this design, but for 800myr range, seems expensive, compare to SE offering,

hey..anyone know how to install java stuffs into tis phone?

Installing Java games on the Samsung E590 via USB Cable tutorial here.

Java... hmm.. dunno la. sorry.

BTW, guys, I have this phone for sale if interested. NEW UNIT. PM me for details. tq
