Samsung Star(s5233), Star 3G (S5603) Review – Full Specification
Hello Folks,
Today I am giving a quick review about Samasung Star& Smasung Star 3G which are high end touch screen phones by Samsung, having their proprietary operating system (Touchwiz).
Samsung Star( GT S 5233)
Samsung Star( GT S 5233) is basically a touch screen model, with a sleek layout&0f Large 3.0” LCD with 262K Color WQVGA panel for clear display. You can enjoy high quality pics on it for sure.
A palm-friendly model with size of 104×53x11.9mm screen to play with. It has got 3.2 Mega pixels of camera which have no flash, photo editor is inbuilt with it, so no need to do it with your PC.
Model has got auto rotating display which automatically changes from portrait to landscape mode, works great . Trust me !!!
MP3/AAC/AAC+/e-AAC+/WMA/WAV format support for music player which have got power of surround sound with DNSe. Also have in built radio of high quality. Video player supports 3GP & many advanced formats.
Star supports GPRS, Edge class 12 for great Internet experience in their default browser. It also have a document viewer so you can view all office & PDF docs.
Samsung Star is priced at Rs9,000-Rs. 10000 in Indian Market.

Samsung Star 3G (GT S 5603)
Samsung Star 3G (GT S 5603) is almost a similar version having wider 7 not taller screen of dimension 102.8 x 54.8 x 12.9 which is off course a 2.8″ having camera at its front also.
One biggest change is it is having 3G support means high speed internet access with HDSPA technology. Another update in star 3g is it is having flash with its camera so it is better in many ways. and for just 2 000 more you are getting 3G technology, which is not a bad deal.
Price of Star 3G : 11, 500 (Average)

Cherry on the Cake for Samsung Star:
You have inbuilt widgets like clock, games & many useful apps. Also you have in built apps for Gmail, Google Maps, Facebook, Flickr, Myspace & Youtube. These can be used online to make your 3G experience more grateful.
Not so good about Samsung Star Models?
It does not have stylus .No Memory card with box. Its proprietary operating system does not allow you to install external applications, so you have to buy all apps from samsung store.
But note that it can be easily cracked to install any java apps & games. (Just Google it)
So that’s it from us, if you compare it with any great phone then , it does not have OS like win mo or android, & wi fi otherwise its awesome at price tag of 9 to 12000 Rs.
Enjoy !!!

Hii Mrinal,
Full page internet is easily accessible by defualt in S5233, you can check your setting preferences for full view.
For connecting internet you need to install samsung PC studio. Then connect phone in PC studio mode with bluetooth or data cable. Then goto > toolbox. There you can connect to internet from your PC.
for scrolling music & contact one by one, just press volume key UP & down to scroll.
