    Hey Admin,

    Sorry to let you down, but I just bought the phone. Network problems, call quality is very poor and irritating… I feel like dumping the phone. Wasted Rs. 3000.
    Very poor quality phone. Extremely Unsatisfied. Don’t go for it.
    First time I’ve bought a Samsung phone and I already hate it!

    Very frequent Restarts in phone. Do not buy the set, or you will regret. Instead, invest 2000 more and get a decent handset.

    I should have known, if they are selling a 3G phone for 2900/- then it should be too good to be true, and so it turned out to be.

    Yes mate, not all are bad, only most of them are – There are only a few good ones! I feel miserable jumping on to get the Samsung Jet, which is a major disappointment for the price when it was launched – 20,000!!!! For 20K, I don’t even get good Apps (proprietary O/S).

      Friend, why don’t u consider Hero E3213K?

      Pros.:-
      I own that phone.
      Video Call with front cam. – Perfect.
      Even though VGA Camera, It can record video even at 320×240 MP4(20 fps H.259 Format).
      Video Playback – Mini HD (H.264) 320×240.
      Picture quality is satisfactory for VGA.
      Camera has Night Mode Feature.
      Music Quality is good.
      Sound quality is fine.
      HSDPA 3.6 MBPS. – Too good for me.
      (As far as i know. I Use BSNL 3G)
      Tabbed Browsing.
      JAVA with MiDP 2.0
      Bluetooth 2.1 with A2DP Support.
      8GB Memory Support.
      10-12 Days Standby in UMTS(3G) Mode.
      21-23 Days Standby in GSM(2G) Mode.
      Absolutely fine 4 me.
      And ofcourse… I have put in an 8gb card.
      Filled almost half of it.
      No stucks, hangs.
      Working fine.

      Cons.:-
      But it takes almost a minute to startup.

      Bottom line:-
      Very good (I mean Excellent) phone for Rs.3,000
