Not seen anything about it yet apart from lots of problems.
I'll wait a while before trying it. |

The ability to do firmware updates is not part of PC Studio yet - other forums seem to indicate that it is maybe on its way. I have an 8510 and I only have a few issues with it.
1. The signal strength is not as good as an n95 2. Contacts sometimes disapear after connection to a bluetooth handsfree, but can be "refound" by closing contacts in the application manager or rebooting the phone (Symbian s/w prob - not a Samsung prb) 3. For some reason I cannot view any videos I take on the phone using the Samsung Media Player on my PC - but by changing MP4 to 3GP they are then playable in Quicktime... go figure. |

the update server is having a few issues. There is no point in ANYONE doing the update at the moment. Its being looked into. Just LEAVE IT for the moment guys & girls.

Hi guys,
about to finally buy this phone in the next few weeks having waited months for carphone warehouse to end their exclusivity deal to no avail. Anyone want to give me a few words on the phone e.g. be careful of dust under screen type thing. Or what package you got it on? Loyalty based discounted upgrades not included. |

The only other "issue" I have is the antenna doesn't seem to be as good as my old N95. There are some good reviews and comparisons out there - I would have a look around. In hindsight, would I upgrade to this phone...? Yes, the camera and the OS make it all worth while. |
