I don't have a camera to take pics :(
:idea:Unless I remove the phone's camera and use it to take the phone's pic :idea:
But hey, pics are available everywhere! It's the user-experience that counts, eh?

Hm, good idea. I have some cheapo 3.5 earphones lying around. Will try it when I get home.
Thinking of getting a local scratch guard for now.

EDIT
Few quick questions:
I also got a pouch with it. Is the phone supposed to fit so tightly into it? I really have to push it inside. Does it scratch the screen like this?
Also, the earphone's 3.5mm jack... does one have to REALLY push it into the phone to connect? Just plugging it in didn't work, I pushed hard and heard another click... only then did it work. (Sound seems awesome btw),

as for now ur phone is safe in the pouch that comes with it... don't worry for scratches but u must get a screen guard as soon as possible if u want it to look like new for long long time.....
its better to not remove the screenguard having android logo tht comes pre-applied on the screen until u get another screenguard

yea.. u have to push it until the golden part of earphone jack gets inserted properly... u'll hear a smooth clicking sound

Hmm.. the earphone seems to be going in easier now. Maybe I just took its virginity the first time... so subsequent times are easier :neutral:

1. Yeah. The 'invoice' seems to be on a half-A4 piece of paper that was ripped in half in an ugly way, but all details are there. It says: Subtotal: Rs. 19513.31, VAT: 975.69, Invoice Total: 20489.00.
So it doesn't show the Rs. 1500 discount that I got. I only paid Rs. 18989.

2. The invoice & the delivery challan mention Cart2India under 'shipped by' with a Bangalore address. The outer white sealed plastic packaging has the indiaplaza.in logo/images printed on it.

3. Yeah, the phone's box had that white label-seal and seemed untampered with. Everything was a-okay in the box, warranty card et. al. My phone shows some IMEI number, but I haven't done any checks. Maybe I'll check it out some time.

Only first impressions so far, but the sound in earphones seems amazing to me. I used to use puny spice earphones from my old set, though, so donno how good a judge I am. The bass from the Samsung earphones really impressed me. Nice and loud. Without earphones... donno maybe sound could be better? Not sure yet.

And yeah... as said, the two phones you mentioned aren't really comparable.

@Santa
Whats the manufacturing date of the phone ? I mean is it a very old piece or just recently came out of the line ?
I was thinking of buying this phone for a long time!

As I mentioned before, the box says it was manufactured in Oct 2011.

As for usage updates... man, this thing is flying! So damn smooth. And my god... 3D games play like butter on this Some guy mentioned he got Dead Space for free from the Samsung apps aplication. I tried it and got it too. Amazing how far mobile graphics have come!

Battery is so-so. Will have to use it for a few more days to make a proper comment.
