Since yesterday I am the proud owner of a Samsung S3600 and actually one should not look a gift horse in the mouth yes, but after such a short time I grieve a little my old Motorolla V3 (unfortunately dam ... eidener Aku, but great service) afterwards , Visually I have no complaints on Samsung, I like it very well and it does not interfere with that back "only" made of plastic and not like the front of brushed aluminum. Even when you open the design proves to be very appealing. The short and sweet fails the manual, ok, first I went also still believe that I would find the key points in a) and b) would have access to more detailed information webpage. Unfortunately, both proved to be a fallacy ... But the Strat was first promising. Well I found immediately after start-up wizard, which led me through the basic settings and so the date, time and coarse profile were created in an instant. My first call came a short time later and as the Samsung as opposed to Motorolla has no small display with caller information outside, I flipped the phone on courageously, to see who wanted something from me. Unfortunately, however, I had no way to me then think about whether I want to talk to the caller as the phone is already preset so that you can already answer the call with the cover open. Well fine, only produces the surprise guests, I've since thought and was glad that they were a welcome callers, but, dear "Samsung" he, this feature is not gonna work well !!! Unfortunately, in the manual was no evidence to find out whether or how to change this function and my search on the homepage revealed ... - Operating (haha) was the same folder that both the phone and was present to me. So I called the service line, where one really explained to me quickly and nice that it was in the disturbing feature to the activated "active shutter" that one can exhibit however: Menu - Settings - Application Settings - Call - All Calls - response Mode (here then tick before "active shutter" remove). Done. Said and done, really was quite easy when you know how! Change your ringtone and volume was then easily (see manual ..) and also turning off the key sounds when navigating through the menu is explained almost by itself. The next step was then to register my calendar entries (very important: birthdays!) Anew cell phone. Also first went pretty well until I arrived at the older generation of my family ... Allen husbands with wedding before 1970 is said Ätschebätsch, the next "round" anniversary of your anniversary you will probably miss. The same goes for birthdays of parents and grandparents. The fact is (I have for this statement specially again phoned the customer service) that the Samsung S3600 is not able to collect data that are pre-1970. Just can not enter it. My "old" now get missed all the current year and to complain to Samsung, if I do not explicitly on the 50th, 60th, 70th, ..., but just generally congratulate birthday ...!
I'm curious what else can I expect from my new Samsung S3600 so everything. I hope the phone calls and sms writing work fine (so far I can not complain in this regard), the most technical frills beyond that I'm not always so eager. The Aku keeps at least schonmal longer than my old Motorola, which is a significant improvement, and hopefully it stays that way. If not, I write a review just yet :-)
