My new mobile : Samsung J800

After a good time of readings & findings, finally I bought a new mobile SAMSUNG J800.



It has loads of cool features and is easy to use. The best feature is, 3G capability. :)

Prior to this I had used candy bar & flip models so wanna give a try to a Slide model and to me this is the best considering the features and good value for money.
