HELLO!!! Just bought this phone hours ago online from WWW.MYBIDS.COM.MY. Will be getting my phone from andybravo this Thursday or Friday. RM1401 because I paid online. Original price he offered was RM1360. Slightly more expensive. Because I only have few hundred with me and I'm sick with my Samsung D500C keypad, so I had to buy it online using card by Friday. Flying to Kuching this Friday. WEEEE~~~

I was looking for N76 actually but the spec is.. YOU KNOW WHAT. Haha. 2mp only and it's around RM900. I wanted a flip phone so I chose G400. Yeah~~~ Silver. Is there a black? I think it should be silver. I tried to google it but found out there are only silver and gold. Based on those pictures. Silver + black actually. I'm also a user of SE K770i but the keypad seems to be very sensitive after few months I use it. More like touch sensitive already especially for buttons 7, left and right. The keypad is also quite difficult to press. Very hard. My one is purple color. My friend got the brown one. The keypad seems fine. Maybe it hasn't gone into trouble yet. Haha~ I have 2 numbers, so I'm getting my second hp!!! And I've got a G400 for myself! Yeah~ Time to work harder to pay off the debts. -__-"


Oh ya. Would like to ask if the phone can support up to 4GB microSD or not. I scared the phone will hang easily if the memory slot I put in is too big. Just want to check what's the capacity. Unlimited?

1. Eric W : RM1310 : DEC 2008 : bought from cynetwork : black
2. BloodyCrystal : RM1305 : NOV 2008 : bought from ViRaViRa : black
3. Rusty Nail : RMXXXX : XXX 2008 : bought from Samsung authorised dealer : ???
4. chinmaan : RM1360 (RM1401 paid online) : DEC 2008 : bought from andybravo : silver + black

huh? keypad a bit stiff? hmm hmm.. u mean for each button in d keypad? maybe it's still new. haha. or u get used to iphone oredi. so u feel dat it's stiff! kekeke... i think most of the keypads found in the phones are stiff. i duno.. i know my K770i is stiff, D500C is stiff. except those classic phones, i think keypad nowadays is meant to be stiff. icon_rolleyes.gif

haha but it doesnt tat shine as this....
maybe tat day i looked it in not so bright....
n i feel gold doesnt look tat nice too...
it's my 2 cents tongue.gif

2 cents? those who want unique color, maybe can try gold. i think most of the people will go for the greyish black or silver. ladies will go for pink. hehe... i was having dilemma between gold and silver. got my suggestions from friends, so i decided to take the silver wan. enough of being UNIQUE. i already have a PURPLE k770i. haha...

yeah! got my phone from andybravo just now!!! didn't have enough time to really test through all the functions. i think samsung has improved a lot!! COMPARED to my poor D500C which is 4 years back oredi. HAHA. i love the external screen function. dun hav to flip my phone to take photo, check calendar and time! and i love the camera function. u dun have to turn d phone around to take photo of urself! it functions like a mirror. haha. if u wanna take someone or something else, can just close d flip n take using ur external screen.

i think the keypad is not dat stiff la. just need to get used to the feel. but wat i doubt is the back cover and battery. it hardly can be removed. i used my fingernail to open the cover. -___-" and the battery seems to be a little hard to remove as well. just need to be careful. the rests work fine.

i juz realised that the volume of the phone is really low because the speaker is inside the flip. so when your flip is closed, the sound goes low because it's covered by the flip even you have adjusted it to the max. so have to rely on the vibration. but the sound is good. just that it's very soft.

hi. guess i'm facing the same problem with you too. the connection got connected then disconnected before one single SMS is loaded. it took me a long time to load then it got disconnected. not even one SMS. i don't really know what is the problem. i just successfully transferred the photos before. did you change the Phone Settings of PC Connection to Samsung PC Studio? if you did then i think you can consult the MENU GUIDE in the Samsung G400 box. HAHA... Sorry. Been busy to check out myself. tell me if you make it through! yeah.. all the best.

camera good. much much better than my 2nd phone K770i because it anti-shake. even if u'r walking, u can capture the pictures well and yet still very clear. if i'm walking, i capture pix with my K770i, sure will get blur. just that the color u c before u capture will b different with d color after u capture. get wat i mean? it gets slightly darker. hey y_owez. i see u been addicting to this phone for quite some time oredi? biggrin.gif as wat i read from other forumer in here.

ISO is the quality of the photo. usually in dark lighting, you have to use a higher ISO. just like the traditional film camera. when you buy the film, the promoter will ask you whether you want ISO200 or ISO400. ISO400 is usually good for night capturing. so i usually switch the ISO to max. haha. exposure metering if i'm not mistaken is regarding the exposure to light. if you own a digital camera, switch your digital camera to manual function. you should be able to find the function of Exposure. the higher the exposure, the brighter your image is. for WDR, not very sure what it is.

if i'm wrong at certain info, someone please correct me. =) because i don't really know the exact explanation of these 2 terms.

another thing i'm quite not satisfied is loading of photos. the more photos you keep in memory card or phone, more hang the phone gets. i think it's bcuz of d file size for each photo. cuz i'm using the best quality. so one photo is around 1mb+

so must be very patient with it.

transfer rate from phone to pc is fine. just the loading of pix in the phone is slow and hang. but as suggested by rusty nail, lower the resolution of pix will help to improve alot~ smile.gif

i'm not sure if i'm correct or not. but so far based on my own exploration, you can only change the font type for dialing display, not the SMS. however, there are only few types of font type you can choose in the Dialing Display. maybe it's been 3 years i din use new samsung phone oredi. feel that samsung has improved. haha.
