Where are all the indignant comments about how this phone is a total ripoff, Samsung sucks, etc? If this were an article about the iPhone, there would already be three pages of people saying how expensive it is and how much it sucks because it only has 130 MB of storage. The levels of hypocrisy are reaching critical.
Actually I was waiting for all the comments about how this is an iPhone rip off since that seems to be the more common comment. But then this has a 5 megapixel camera that can actually take video. Shame it doesn't have auto focus though.
A 5 megapixel camera?! REALLY?! Oh well that's totally different, I can see where the $400 price difference comes from now. And of course it's an iPhone ripoff. Have you looked at the picture? Have you seen an iPhone? And you are not allowed to complain about the iPhone's price any more, not when phones like this exist that cost *two times* more than the iPhone.
I don't know about this one, but the Samsung F700 looks better than the iphone and has a physical keyboard which is better than the iphone. Deal with it fanboy. Plus it's been in production for a very long time.
The term is twice. And I bet when taken out on a contract this phone is cheaper than the iPhone. The price quoted here is the sim free price for when purchased without a contract.
This phone (as well as the LG Viewty) Decent camera Flash Takes video Can send MMS Can forward SMS messages Can send multiple sms Can be purchased unlocked Doesn't require you to install proprietary software to activate the phone
“An engineer explained to us that hundreds of ear impressions were gathered in the name of research, and while each one obviously boasted its own unique shape and size, one single characteristic remained uniform across the board: the entrance into the ear canal is not a perfect circle, it's an oval.”

I'll personally stick with my Viewty.
