Just got it today!

Screen is amazing and looks a million dollars!

Not as fast to use as T68 in terms of changing settings and accessing
feautures

When open, the phone looks bloody amazing

Very very cool ring tones

battery i am in the process of testing

Overall its smaller than T68

Look worse on the outside than T68 but better on the inside

2 batteries included. 1 x extended and 1 x standard

T9 slightly faster than T68

Design is way cooler than T68

Havent tried wap, but will do in the evening

Overall, if you dont need GPRS/triband/bluetooth or your use of them is very limited, you should go for the T100 especially if you prefer a kewl fone cos this baby will impress your mates more than the T68!

I dont use GPRS/triband/bluetooth and bought it cos of the T68's looks and colour, but the T100 may win.....

I just hope the batteries last long!!

Will post any other comments as and when i find them!

well i am selling mine already. there's too little features in it. also the color screen is pretty much useless, cos there's no mms support.

have you try playing the games it is too bloooooddddyy slooooowowoww. i don't know how ppl can dodge the incomming bullets with such slow refresh rate.

have you try to save new t9 words? cos it seems like you can't save new words into their dictionary!!!

oh forgot to comment on the battery. it sucks!! samsung battery sucks big time that's why they include 2 battery. perhaps the thicker one will last longer but dunt you think it's a bit thick??? the slim one fits just nicely to get the good looking shape. avarage it only last at most 48H on me with talktime of about 30min

Well i dont really care about bluetooth, gprs or triband cos i dont use them and mms seems to be far too expensive and useless to use at the moment.

I prefer the look of the t100 and it just makes me happier cos of the brighter screen and amazing ringtones. The batteries i will try out and if their are crap i will send it back. I dont think the extended battery is massive, it is acceptable. I can always carry a spare with me!

The T68 colour 256 is shit! I only use the phone minus bluetooth/triband/gprs so a good battery life is the only advantage i have on the T68.

Delivery reports on orange uk works on T100 but not the T68m even with new MMS software!

I really liked the design of the V60, but its quite old and shit screen and quite heavy. The t100 was the alternative, the s100 and v100 i dont like their designs, probably too expensive and features i dontneed.

Payed £140 upgrade + £5/month contract on o2 business 1rst Works out £200. Thats a pretty good price, considering they cost at least £350 sim free! I can sell my T68 for around £250 in amazing cond. with box and radio and all usuals and make a profit
I will test it out for a while and decide which 1 i like better

Alexdos-> Could you please tell me whether it is posible to get Samsung SGH-T100 with Danish language in the menu. I want to know this because I intend to buy a Samsung SGH-S100 in Germany (I live i Denmark, where it´s practically impossible to buy Samsung phones) and I thought, that if the T100 has Danish language the S100 might have it as well.

Regards

i got mine a bit cheaper than yours and sold it for a massive profit of well over £150. as it only took me one week to decide on selling it i also provide the buyer warranty for 1 year . if you think T100 is good, you better wait and see the 7210, well at least it got MMS to make good use of the color screen. somemore got speakerfone and am quite sure it will have a much better battery life than the T100. until 7210 comes out, better show off as much as you can now. well that's what it's meant for isn't?

I dont wanna use MMS, i have a T68mms and i cant see myself using it at all! MMS will take off in a year or so, perhaps. Too few fones supporting MMS and expensive MMS useage will hamper demand and the bandwagon effect will not take place this year.

Btw, £140 with an upgrade and only £5/month is very cheap for this phone!

It is a kewl phone and i dont like the design of the 7210, it is very youthly and i dont need all those shit features.

Anyways, i am still in the testing phase for the T100. I can always give it back if i really need to!

woow calm down dude. T100 is a good fone as well. but a bit dissapointed to me that's all. what impress me is the content that comes along with it. real value for money and not to forget 2 lithium batteries.

surely 7210 looks toyish but heck it's just my opinion that's it's better than T100.

anyhow the price you got is very good deal. well worth it.

Personally, I had a friend let me try out his T100 from Europe, and I felt odd playing around with the settings on the phone. It looked like I was going to put on make up (Ok, so someone told me that, hehe).

In either case, I like the color screen of the phone, brighter than the T68. I haven’t been able to see if the battery lasts long enough, but according to my friend, he has to charge it everyday, which isn’t that bad...

The ringtones are pretty fun as well.

As for the design, I don’t like the way it is opened; it looks cool closed with the outside display.

However, his phone does not work here!

I have to agree with that, it’s a ok looking phone but I think the 7210 would be more better until the V100 comes out, but never better than the T68i!
