This is my review for Samsung SCH-S379 CDMA handset. Now for the SCH-S379: Its a feature rich handset compared to the one's at the similar price range in the CDMA market. Important features or the Pro's of this handset are listed below: a. Bluetooth b. Expandable memory upto 2GB (Hot Swapable, not in Nokia CDMA handsets) c. Excellent Colour display 1.9" 262K d. USB charging f. Mobile tracker.( I have tested this feature and it works fine) g. 1.3 MP camera with a good picture quality and different modes which are missing in the Nokia handset. h. Music player and FM i. FM recording to the memory card. j. Receive files through Bluetooth directly to Memory Card (not possible in Nokia 6275) k. Select and transfer multiple files through bluetooth.(again not possible in Nokia 6275) l. Indian calendar m. Audio jack is the same which is available on the computers. So you do not need a dedicated headset. You can just purchase any from the local market. Try a Sony headset and the sound quality is excellent. It is also better with the original headset supplied in the box but not as good compared to Sony headset. n. Comes with 1 GB memory card. o. Video recording p. And finally costs only Rs 6000/- for all the above mentioned features. q. It supports RIM world Now for the Cons: a. This is what I hate the most. You can set the clock time. It takes by default from the Reliance network. I had the habit of running 15mins ahead of time. Unfortunately now I can't. b. The NPS software is not as friendly as the Nokia PC suite. It has its own formats for backing up SMS and the Sync feature is too bad. It will duplicate the contacts and then tell you that the phone memory is full. c. Music player can take only 100 files and not more than that. If you add new music files to the storage card that are not updated in the music player. d. You cannot rename the profiles. e. Not that good battery life i usually talk upto 5 hrs a day so need to charge the mobile continously eventhough the battery is 1000 mAh the battery indicator looses the power very soon but recommnded for average users this phone. f.there r two times shown on the cell display cant disable any1 The cons aren't much currently but as and when I come across I will update.. Phone Price: Rs. 5,900/- from Alfha market in Irla, mumbai Purchase Date: 10th Sept 2009.
