Samsung S8500 Wave Complete Review & Specifications

Samsung has introduced there own Bada OS with its Samsung OS which is very different from normal smartphone OS’s like Android or Apple’s iOS. Bads is said to be a performance improvement from their older properitery OS’s on previous phones.

Samsung Wave is featured with all the best of technical specifications, one of which is its ARM 1GHZ processor which makes it very fast to operate. It is also blended with Touchwiz User interface 3.0 which is latest addition form Samsung which makes overall UI experience more friendly. Following is a small review in means of features some good & some bad ones.

But if you are not an android freak its a recommended phone in this price range. It’s major competitors would be HTC Desire, HTC Legend, Sony XPERIA and some Nokia smartphones with Symbian 60.

Pros:

Very fast 1GHz processor

HD video recording (with 5 MP camera)

Very shard Super AMOLED display

Good looking cellphone

Cons:

Touchwiz  3.0 is better than its older version, But if we compare it with HTC sense or other UI’s it is nowhere competetive.

No App store yet for Bada OS, and also there will be less and limited apps for BADA OS.

Many good HTC phone in same price range.

Our Suggestion about Samsung Wave:

It is a budget friendly smartphone with good multimedia capabilities & high speed. If you are not Android or apps freak it is best you can get in this price.
