Does anyone know where I can buy this phone in the UK? from having read reviews it's not being released here but do not really want to buy from Japan, USA or even eBay. Have emailed Samsung & other websites asking but not one of them being of any help. Hope someone out there knows the answer.

This phone is now not actually going to come onto the UK market due to all the kiddies candy bar designs that have flooded the 5 big UK retailers, not to mention the lack of a sales market in flip & clamshell designs generally. Sorry all. The only place to buy one would be across the channel. It's a shame because this is truly the market leader for this type of handset but market forces dictate the new releases.

This phone is not coming out for a long time, maybe after 3 months time so I have heard I am definitely holding on to my Blackberry until this phone comes out. I love flip phones!

Review update, Note to Stavros I removed the protective lens cover. Not that silly dear me. O2 have had a few back I found out it's a fault with a few of these phones. Got a Nokia 6220 classic now & it's boss.

The phone looks OK. I want to see it first before buying it. The features are OK on the phone but I think the screen is a bit small but I like all other Samsung phones so I have got to see it. If it's too small I will go & buy the Motorola V8.

Wow can't wait for this phone to be released over in the UK (hoping it comes to Orange) & well I never! I want it bad it's a lot nicer than the soul & the keypad just rocks, plus I love flip phones my phone (Nokia 6500 slide) has problems like resetting the settings back to the manufacturer & I am on my third one so the next time they will replace it! I was going to get the Moto V8 but I think I'll hang out until this beauty is released!
