Samsung Galaxy 5 I5503 Next G Unlocked Mobile Phone - $89 + Free Delivery
capacitive screen
I forget - is that the better one, or is resistive better?
capacitive is better
I think "Samsung S5620 Monte" -95$ is better than this phone.
Here is the comparison —- http://www.esato.com/phones/compare.php?phone=641&cp=636
How? It's not Android and it's only got a 256k color screen compared to the Galaxy 5's 2.1 android with 16 million color screen
Samsung S5620 Monte : Better Camera
Bigger Display resolution (HxW)
Bigger LCD Inch
More inbuit Memory
Better Standby time and Talktime.
Better design
Camera?
2MP compares to 3.2MP and neither would be very good. When a 12MP camera can be bought for $100, you don't buy a ~$100 phone based on camera quality.
Bigger Display & LCD Inch?
Possibly, but 256k means the screen is nothing special. It'd look very bland and faded compared to the Galaxy
More Inbuilt Memory
Can be expanded with a card in the Galaxy. Can it be done with the Monte?
Standby Time & Talktime
Irrelevent given 3G phones these days die after a day's use anyway. You'll have them on a charger often.
Better Design?
SERIOUSLY? Is this official? I don't believe so. It's ALWAYS personal preference. Not worth any further discussion.
The Galaxy 5 is still better
i can't believe samsung named one of their phones galaxy 5 and another one galaxy S
next there going to have a galaxy 5 II
Don't forget the Samsung Galaxy Ace !!
but its more than 100$ :)
Sorry - I meant for another example of confusing naming in that it could sound quite similar to Ace = S
Yeah, agree.
I reckon Samsung should save the Galaxy name for their high end devices.
they're probably saving "universe" for them.
I vote samy call the next gen- uranus -…just to make it interesting working in a phone store,
customers asking to look at a phone that craps all over the rest ;)
Might work in Sydney…
Nah, Uranus stinks!
It should be called the saturn… because of the RINGS :-)
Seems like a good price for an unlocked android phone, especially since it supports the Telstra 850MHz network. But i'd still prefer the Huawei IDEOS U8150 for $79 at DSE which include a 4GB Micro SDHC
$99 locked to Vodafone or $179 unlocked.
You can get it for $79 locked to virgin, and i'm sure there are methods on the net to unlock it for free or a small price.
ebay selling unlocked for 89 dollars with heaps of freebies, aussie seller free express. got one for my mum. and samy for my father, hope samy get 2.2 soon
but samsung 5 got better processor than u8150? memory information hard to find on samsung though….. where u8150 is 256m
bought 1, thanks. No news for official 2.2 for australia yet? Asia country, europe and US already have 2.2 official
If you 'root' your device, you can install CM7 on it. I'm already running one on my device.
yeah…. just thought try to keep it "clean" for my father…
How many days do we expect to receive the delivery ?
Nice phone, except that there is a whole bunch of telstra apps in it..
thank you!!!!! it came with android 2.2.1 !!!
plus a lot of telstra crap
ermm..not bad with android inside. is it capacitive or resistive?
