There seems to some confusion about this. Other places on the Samsung site have this specs for the S100:
Standby: 150/180 Standard/Extended
Talktime: 6/8

I don't know what's right, but from my experience the batterylife is good and that is what really counts

Can you give some numbers ?
"for me the standby time is good" is a bit relative. Maybe your someone who likes recharging:)

Anyway, is it possible to tell how many days you do with phone untill you need to recharge ? And also mention if you leave the phone on at night and if you call/sms a lot.

I saw the T100 in the store and it is very perfect. Small and a good design. The price is ok also. When the 7210 sucks I'm going to buy this one I think.


I saw the picture of the 100S on the page , and it has a green backligth ? Is this changeable? and does it have a profile thing like on nokias?

ps. Why dont they produce mobiles with changeable backligths anway ? Most mobiles have LED backgrounds and there ale led's who give different ligth at other voltages. (so you can change the color by applying differen voltage)

I charge it approx. every three days(extended batt.). A play arond with it quite a lot; downloading,playing games(they are great) and of course normal use(on at night, not many SMS)
This is about the same as for the T68i I used to have. The T68i is supposed to have much better specs for batterytimes, but it also only lasted three days when I "played" with it.
Outside backlight is blue, not changeable.
You can only change the colour of the small outside operational light.

Ah ok, great.
But arent you talking about the T100 ? since the S100 has a green front display on the samsung site (the T100 has a blue one) so over wich phone are you talking about ?

Hello to all,
1- I would like to know if the Samsung S100 could import the contacts stored on your pc. I mean, I would like to pass all my contacts of outlook to the S100, is this possible?

2- How many profiles has the S100? (Profiles as Nokia, General, Silent, Bip,...)

3- The STN screen of s100 is readable on sunlight? or is the same as T68i?


Thank you,

NetGuy2

The S100 front display looks green when unlit, but it lights up blue.

Not sure about syncing, I don't use it myself, can't help there sorry
Display is readable in sunlight, I find it better than the T68i personally.
The S100 doesn't use profiles like Nokia does

It doesn't synch against Outlook, but instead the Windows adressbook.

Excellent to find this thread - via google - I am keen to buy this phone in the UK on contract as mine is up for renewal and so far I can only find it sim free for over £400. All help appreciated.

Kind regards

Mark

Thanks for info, i think i will buy the T100. Quick question can you change the font size on the screen, either on the menu or while texting ?

Does look a lovely phone, i have heard that it will come down for pay as you go to around £150 in the next month or so,
