In addition, Samsung Gloss also comes built-in with City ID and Tone Room feature. A ring tone shop, Tone Room comes with all genres updated music. The caller ID feature is capable of displaying the state and city of incoming calls.

Though when I had a look at the image of Samsung Gloss, I was excited to know whether it will have more colors or not, but I found charcoal and pink colors, I was more pleased than ever as I have had color of my likings.

Samsung Gloss is expected to be made available via U.S. Cellular retail locations and at uscellular.com, but as to its pricing details there is no word on its information, it may take some more time to come, but we will be keep waiting.

I just got the fone today & it is so freaking adorable. I love it & i hope it doesnt go to crap like the rest of my fones have, All my lg fones were so bad and not durable what so ever!

Great phone, but like someone commented, it doesn't hold many texts. It holds lot of pictures though. (Right now I've got like 125 on it) Photo quality is better with outdoor lighting. Indoor lighting makes the picture more blurry. I haven't had any issues of the battery not lasting. I charge it in the evening and it runs pretty much all day. The charge time is insanely fast! The keyboard is a good size, easy to text. One thing I've not been able to figure out is why the phone will vibrate out of the blue. The phone's on ring, no missed calls, checked everything... Strange. My husband's phone hasn't done the mystery vibrate yet. Overall, great phone!
