SAMSUNG B5310 Corby mobile phone review

Got this SAMSUNG B5310 Corby and updated on this mobile phone review as promised
  • Dual-band UMTS support with HSDPA 7.2 to be exact . Dont have data plan but can assure you it should be fast. Have seen 3.6 at work on samsung phones..
  • 2.8" resistive TFT touchscreen QVGA- overall nice, even react with my fat thumb touches, But then, nail pointing required at times - Weird.. like a half-done capacitive screen
  • Four-row side-slide QWERTY keyboard, keys maybe better than Motorola Dext as per my trial at Singtel shop. Top row of keys not so friendly with thumb. Lucky mostly numbers on first row.
  • 150MegaBytes onboard storage. Left with 108Mb when I checked the first time
  • Wi-Fi & GPS functions - wifi search & log-on is fast. No chance to try GPS
  • Accelerometer sensor for screen auto rotation- good & fast as advertised
  • Office document viewer- no comments yet
  • Excellent web browser- no auto complete. The 2.8 screen
  • Support Push email function, not many in the market for Android phones- Not tried yet
  • WebKit-based Dolphine web browser with full Flash & Java support
  • One-finger zooming Can also scroll by simply sweeping a finger across the screen. Not sure but scrolling is choppy at times. Requires some techniques. Good thing volume buttons at the side is a good scroll up/down control. No issues in this case. Left scroll up/down, right thumb press to select. Perfect!
  • Attachment limit for sending and receiving is 5MB. Have not tested.
CONS:
- Reviews shown that resistive TFT touchscreen not very responsive at times. Most of the time, you need not touch twice to activate the function - it is true, for some menu selection. Like Music player at Home screen. Did not react at times.

- Dolphine web browser allow up to 5 pages to be opened simultaneously. Unluckily, it tends to run out of resources pretty fast, displaying a warning with only three not really heavy sites opened at once. No chance to try

- Lack of auto-complete when typing the address of already browsed websites is a bit of a letdown- indeed , can be very irritating. Indeed, I can assure of that claim.
