well wave 2 has a 3.7" Super clear LCD vs the original wave which has a 3.3" Super AMOLED. The LCD on the wave 2 cannot match the super AMOLED but it is bigger so thats some what of a compensation. The battery life would also be considerably less on the wave 2 coz of the screen. Besides the screen, the rest of the specs are the same and it should be available for ~18.
Has anybody got any idea as to when the New Samsung S8530 Wave II will be released in Indian Market ?
The original s8500 wave was so popular-that sometimes I get a feeling that Samsung will re-introduce this soon as Super AMOLED screens are available from it's new plant, reported to be sometimes Q2-2011.

wave 2 is supposed to be out and i doubt Samsung will re release wave 1. They will probably release a wave 3 or something with a super AMOLED 2 screen and bada 2.0.
 
Been waiting for the past one week to get a replacement of my broken screen done with no luck. There are no fcuking super amoled screens left. I have to say, the ASS of samsung truly sucks. They simply do not provide any support for their phones. How was I to know that a hot selling phone launched 5 months back would be discontinued so soon. Even if the phone is discontinued they should have the spares left to fix the ones that have been sold. I got the phone a month back for 18.5k and now its not even worth 2k. Disappointed. :|
 
^^its really very bad, hope i dont mess up spoiling my screen.

btw, what do the samsung service center people tell u ? do they give any options ?

Damm dude, I got my screen replaced in 4 days.

Guys dont use you wave naked, put some protection on it. I got a cheapo flip case from ebay as well as gadget sheild full body cover.

I am still looking for a nice leather case for the wave.

Bluff, where are you located??

No. I mean when bada 2.0 releases even the original wave will get the update along with all the latest models released by then. BTW Wave II runs on bada 1.2.
 
Wave S8500 and Wave S8530 Comparison:

Wave S8500 blows the Wave II S8530 anyday. Its not just the S-Amoled screen. The overall size and thickness of wave II has increased which has made the phone a lil fugly to be honest. The owners of the original wave indeed are lucky. Anyways, its still the best phone out there in that price range and folks looking to buy a new set should definitely consider it.
 
If anyone is getting "Additional 16MB free space required to upgrade" message while updating the fone to latest FW 1.0.2 JIK1, then just clear Cache, cookies and other browsing info frm Internet Setting.
