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
