hi i just brought this phone last week .... in my opinion this phone is great ... but i have found some bug in this phone and now before u all buy better u all read below and make sure that u has no regret to buy this set .....

1 . this phone is not preinstall any maps for gps... so u need to buy 3rd party application in order to use your gps without charging your phone bill ... so i install garmin mobile xt v 5.0 ... after complete my installation then i try to run the garmin ....but the program suddenly close by itself  ... then i try to install other application like call filter , blacklist etc .. and i found also all the program also cannot run .... then i go to FMG talk to the technician and they said this firmware cannot suport any 3rd party program ... they said need to wait for 2 ,3 month for upcoming firmware .... so if you is somebody know and intrested to install any extra application ... better u think before buying this phone ...

2. i`m now having  i-tech bluethooh clip D radio .... and  try to pairing with this phone... but the problem is .... this phone cannot support all i-tech bluethooh brand and cannot pairing it  .... so then i try to pair with other bluethooh brand like jabra , nokia ,se and i found all can work with this phone ..... i more thing with this new symbian .... normally when u want to pair with any bluethooh device ... u need to key in the bluethooh device password (normally 0000) ...but with this new platfrom ... there is no need to key in your password ... so it`s automatically pairing with your bt device ...  i think that why all i-tech bt model cannot pair bacause they using diffrent password (8888)

3. front camera is only can use for 3g calling .... cannot use for self taking picture ...

4.when someone calling ... b4 this i`m using n95 and i set at my ringtone to say the name of the caller ... but with this phone u cannot do it bacause no option to do that ....

so far i only found this problem with my phone compare to my n95 ... i hope samsung can update thir firmware as early as possible .. but overall i`m very setisfied with the battery performance and superb 8mp digital camera ... also with full web browsing and watch high quality audio and video ....

appreciate your review notworthy.gif

about no 3, I've used SGH-L760 and the front camera can take pics in camera mode. kinda weird that they dropped this option in the inov8
