High-Speed Processor!
The Samsung Jet features an impressive 800MHz processor allowing for an amazingly fast response time and high-speed multimedia functions whilst at the same time conserving battery power. The 800MHz application processor also delivers a responsive touchscreen experience and can handle running multiple applications.
3.1 inch AMOLED Touchsceen!
The Samsung S8000 Jet features a 3.1 inch AMOLED Touchscreen display offering a sharp vibrant picture whilst at the same time benfitting from a slimmer construction and better battery life that traditional TFT displays. The Samsung Jet features a 3D cube that lets users navigate different applications, features TouchWiz for customisable widgets on the home screen and an accelerometer which rotates the screen and offers motion sensitive navigation.
5.0 Megapixel Camera
Including a built in 5.0 megapixel camera with auto focus, face, smile and blink detection and an LED flash. the Samsung S8000 on Orange takes quality pictures that you will want to share with your friends. Store them in your phone, email them to friends or upload them to your blog.
DVD-Like Video Recording
The S8000 Jet features DVD-Like video capture in D1 resolution (720 x 480) at 30 frames per second. Watching videos is just as good thanks to instant download and playback of DivX and XviD without resizing and alteration.
HSDPA
HSDPA offers a similar benefit to a 3G network that GPRS offered to the GSM networks. It offers a higher speed data transfer with a compatible handset. HSDPA is often referred to as Mobile Broadband.
Wi-Fi
With Wi-Fi you can use your Samsung phone on Orange to connect to a local wireless network (W-LAN) to connect to the internet. This offers a cheap (sometimes free) method of connecting to the net to download emails, files, or check on your favourite website.
GPS
With built in GPS you can use the Samsung Jet to locate your position, plan your journey, and as a general Sat Nav device, when used in conjunction with compatible mapping software.
A-GPS
A-GPS is a network service that can locate your position to within 100 metres by using a clever technique called triangulation. By sending a signal to three cell masts, A-GPS will work out your location by the location of the cells and your distance from them. When combined with a GPS enabled mobile phone, the addition of A-GPS enables a faster GPS satellite lock.
Bluetooth 2.0
Bluetooth 2.0 is the next generation of Bluetooth connectivity. With Bluetooth 2.0 one of the biggest advantages is the possibility of listening to music with a compatible wireless headset in stereo. Less wires, less mess, more noise.
Java
Java is often a forgotten feature on many phones, and is probably used in many ways without you even realising. If you play games on your phone, it's likely they are java apps. But java is so much more than games. It allows you to add extra functionality to your handset by installing third party apps to the phone. Add email functionality with Gmail, add a web browser from Opera Mini, add a business directory with Yell.com or keep an eye on a new purchase on Ebay.
Music Player
With a built in music player, you can carry your tunes with you, in your pocket, and listen to them when you want. Most digital formats are recognised on the phone, including MP3 and AAC.
Web Browser
With a built in Dolfin Web Browser you can access internet sites directly from your handset. Check the latest scores, look up train times, get a weather report, or find the answer to the question in the pub quiz. With the inbuilt web browser you have the power of the internet with you, wherever you are.
The Samsung Jet features a crystal clear 3.1 inch touchscreen display and powerful application processor ensuring all your apps run smoothly. The Jet uses the Samsung TouchWiz user interface which puts content in a tool bar on the home screen. Drag and drop interactive shortcuts to provide one touch access to all your favourite content. The Jet also includes a 5.0 Megapixel camera loaded with extras such as autofocus, face, smile and blink detection and DVD-like video recording.

HMC - Pulborough-23/06/2010 I was very unsure about whether I wanted a touchscreen phone or not, however, after talking to many friends and family members who have them, I decided to give it a whirl. I then had to decide which phone and which package... that made my decision a little easier as I wanted a free gift of a Netbook and to pay £35 a month or less... that certainly narrowed the field considerably. I read just about every review out there on the Samsung Jet and deliberated over it for ages, then finally bit the bullet and ordered it. When it first arrived I was a bit apprehensive about my choice as although not a technophobe by any means, I am female and mid 50's and been using the same flip phone for 4 years, prior to that I was always into plain and simple phones. I sat down with the book and that actually scared me off as it is 87 pages of info, most of which was like reading a foreign language to me. So I decided I would forget that apart from the basic bits like putting in the battery and turning the phone on etc and figured it out all myself! Most of it anyway is pretty easy to work out and the phone does give lots of prompts. I now prefer my touchscreen to a keypad phone any day. I am still getting my head around how to use some of the things on it and I am sure in time it will all make perfect sense! Probably just in time for me to get an upgrade! :-) Also I must add that the whole transaction here with mobiles.co.uk could not have been easier, I kept my number and that was simple to do and it all arrived together within a few days of ordering, my free gift is not a reconditioned item either but brand spanking new. All in all a very good experience and will definitely stick with them! Only one minus point though which I have to mention is watch out for the predictive words when texting.. the word 'for' comes up as 'Eo's' and is and it come up as Ht........plus there are a few others.. so make sure you do check your text before sending - I have sent some pretty odd ones out in the early days. lol.
JC - Forfar-27/05/2010 The Samsung Jet is a classy phone, very sleek in design but yet brilliant to use. Its my first touch screen phone and I had no bother adapting from my old one. The screen is bright and colourful, and very responsive and it's pretty quick at handling the information too. Overall great buy!
DE - North Ireland-11/03/2010 Very pleased with my Jet, which I have had now for 1 month. Great deal and service from mobiles.co.uk. Ordered on a Wednesday evening and received it on Friday morning. Posting to N.Ireland usually takes much longer. The Jet is a beautiful phone, being just the right size with an excellent clear and bright screen. It has everything I would want on a phone with the exception of voice dial. I find the battery life to be very good. The tip here is to charge the phone and then when it says it is fully charged and to disconnect the charger, I would pull the plug out and then reconnect it again. The 5th bar on the phone will start flashing again for approx. 8 minutes. After repeating this exercise about 6 or more times the 5th bar will flash for about 1 minute until the message to disconnect from charger will appear again. I have personally found that I get exactly a week before I need to charge the phone again. Indeed it remains on 5 bars for 2 and a half days before it drops to 4. This is all with moderate use of the phone. All in all I could not be happier with it.
KP - Plymouth-25/02/2010 This phone is a great phone. Has good features for those who are not too technical but has more than some other phones on the market. I'm still finding new things to do on my phone and I bought it in October. The deal I got with mobiles.co.uk was very good value for money with orange and I couldn't find anything even close to this deal on the high street. Service was quick and easy. Really happy with my purchase.
KDB - Edinburgh-05/02/2010 Samsung Jet is a great phone, lots of nice features, looks great and is very easy to use. The service I have had through getting my phone from mobiles.co.uk has been outstanding, up to date email contact all the way, queries dealt with promptly and efficiently, excellent delivery times and fantastic deals, would not buy a mobile from anywhere else.
DM - Cardiff-05/02/2010 Firstly my phone and free PS3 arrived next day in perfect condition. 5 star service. As for the phone I have never been one to pay much attention to previous phones I've had but the Jet is so user friendly that it's become a necessity. Be it messaging listening to music watching films or the 5MP camera the way the phone is set out it makes everything a pleasure to use. I certainly am happy I bought this phone and can find no fault or weakness with it. :)
KB - Edinburgh-29/01/2010 Samsung Jet is a great phone, lots of nice features, looks great and is very easy to use.
SW - Evesham-29/01/2010 Well what a great phone, much better than my old N95. All the features are great a bit long winded but no more than the N95 plus it would be nice if it came with Sat-Nav software installed on it plus better choice of Sat-Nav software too, as it seems you can only use route 66 Garmin or Tom Tom. Would be a much better choice in my eyes but apart from that a nice piece of kit.
CK - London-28/01/2010 Absolutely love this phone, debated for ages on the best phone to go with and I am happy I made the right choice. It has loads of features, the screen quality is excellent. Would definitely recommend this phone.
PS - Crawley-26/01/2010 My first touchscreen phone and already loving creating messages with a QWERTY keyboard. Chose the handset because it was barely bigger than my previous mobile - I like the iPhone, but it's too damn big! Like selecting the widgets for the desktop and amazed at the quality of the screen. My only minor grumble is that when I'm listening to music in the headset and I receive an incoming call the music doesn't automatically restart when the call is terminated.
RA - Huddersfield-31/12/2009 Very good phone, not had any problems, looks nice and has bags of features. The only problem i have with it is the sat nav, all that is included is a search facility, if you want to use navigation you have to pay 59.99 a year which i think is pretty poor !
CB - UK-22/12/2009 A good all round phone that is easy to use and comfortable to hold. It has a stylish design that I like a lot. The internet on the phone is above standard and fast, in general the phone is fast.
AS - Staffordshire-04/12/2009 Got this phone today and it's the best phone I've had! It's really easy to use and has everything you need plus more! A must have!
RR - Leicester-01/12/2009 Sam sung jet performs truly like a jet. Excellent phone with superb performance. Stylish too. Can never be any better then that!
GF - London-19/11/2009 I was really impressed with the speed in which my transaction was processed and the delivery. I'm very pleased. The phone is a great phone. It's my first touchscreen so I can't really compare the 'touch' aspect of it but it's not difficult to handle. It has tones of features even a music finder which I found as a pleasant surprise because it wasn't mentioned in any other review I've read. Overall I think it's a great phone and I will certainly enjoy its full use. Thanks Mobile.co.uk. I got a great deal!!!
RR - London-10/11/2009 Upgraded from an LG Cookie, the Jet is similar size and weight. 2 days in and I love it, the touchscreen is very responsive and accurate, and the loading time of all apps and features is a lot faster. Played around with the camera in the house only so I can't really comment on that but 5MP should take decent photos. The mp3 player is great, I don't know if it's the phone or the earphones supplied but it sounds awesome...better than anything I've had in the past. My last few phones: Nokia N95 8gb, big brick, very slow and poor battery. LG Cookie KP500, perfect pocket size, value for money, great battery life but it was slow so the Jet fixed all the negatives from my past phones. I would recommend it to anyone who is after a touchscreen phone.
- - London-15/10/2009 Really nice stylish phone, if you're not used to touch screen phone's can be confusing at first but will get used to it. Loads of features on phone. Really quick delivery as well!
PS - Hayes-30/09/2009 After receiving my phone I was quite surprised how easily it was set up and configured, had it up and running in a matter of mins, the only down side I found was if you wish to use the GPS satnav software you need a memory card that isn't supplied in the box, but this was easy enough to go get from your local IT store or even Tescos. I would recommend this phone for anyone that is a gadget fiend!
KV - Bournemouth-28/09/2009 I received my phone today as promised, next day delivery. The touchscreen is a little difficult to use at first but once you get used to it its fine. Lots of features and applicants and very similar to the iphone. Internet is fast, easy to set up. It does have a few too many icons and features and the ring tones on the phones are limited but thats what the internet is for! Looks great and very stylish. Comes with a case also. Added bonus! and good headphones. Overall, i would definitely recommend this phone.
CB - Yorkshire-15/09/2009 First of all I'd just like to mention that I ordered my phone from mobiles.co.uk and by 0900 the next morning it was in my hand and I was playing with it. Excellent service. The Samsung Jet, firstly it has to be one of the best looking phones out there at the moment, for me I'm not a big fan of huge pocket filling phones and this is perfect. Still has everything you would want in a phone and is still small enough to fit in my pocket. Plus points: screen quality is amazing, it is very easy to use once you get used to it, good size, very easy to text with the number keypad, although you can use the QWERTY if you turn it on its side. Negative points: Battery life (but no phone has a good battery life anymore), no games, can't turn the key 'beeps' off- it's either silent or everything beeps. all in all I'm very happy with my new phone. It's not a smart phone but other than not being able to get some applications it's just as good and even better in some places.
RG - Northampton-10/09/2009 This phone is without doubt the best looking for quite a while, really smart features but found the touchscreen a little unresponsive, not as easy to use as say the iphone but a good alternative once you get used to it.
JH - Wales-09/09/2009 Received this phone this morning, and I'm having no problems with it. The screen is gorgeous. Great photo quality, nice features such as Panorama shot and smile/blink detection. Video recording quality is also very good. The built in speaker is clear and crisp, not tinny like most mobile phone speakers I've come into contact with. I'd recommend this phone to anyone.
DM - Watford-17/08/2009 Mobiles.co.uk has had a hands-on play with Samsung's fastest touchscreen yet and we love the stunning display screen. See the full Samsung Jet review.
TJ - London-21/07/2009 Really impressed with my new phone, looks and works great and is very easy to use. Service from Mobiles.co.uk was excellent, ordered at 10.30am and the phone with free PS3 was here at 8am the next morning. Overall very very happy!
CL - Bude-21/07/2009 absolutely brilliant phone, thought the deal i had got from mobiles.co.uk was too good to be true but its fantastic. Quality of the phone is also great no damage at all. would totally recommend buying from the site and this phone an deal would come top of my list.
JR - Manchester-20/07/2009 The Samsung Jet is a really great phone. Its a bit fidgety at the start but you get use to it. I am a phone collector and this is the greatest phone out yet. Hope you will enjoy it. xxx
