Not, but some funny people around here claim Apple invented Retina display (and Retina in general - funny, that, I was pretty confident Retina came from mother Nature, or some deity).
Which is what previous poster was replying to.
For someone who is Apple user but not an Apple fan, it is really amusing to read what some people around here are trying to sell as Apple's inventions. Masterful implementation of already available technologies, yes. But inventions...
Nice of you to reply when he was unable to.
Unfortunately, you are incorrect about your assumption that 'Retina Display' came from Mother Nature or some Deity, both of which present things in a much higher resolution.
Retina Display is a term that describes the technological achievement of making the individual pixels unable to be discerned when viewed from a certain distance, depending on the device.
It'd be appreciated if you checked your facts and not present either your own, or others, opinions when attempting to provide 'proof', and let's try to have a little respect for a company that rarely claims to have invented anything, but has re-invented a hell of a lot of stuff that many of us use on a daily basis.
Ironically, I'm not an Apple fan either, but I do like to pay credit where credit is due.

The mere fact that the average person hasn't even heard of this phone tells you all you need to know about it.
If you had looked at the posters location and factored in the time zones, you might have worked out why I hadn't replied, but it seems your gloating ego overrode the higher functioning parts of your brain in it's chortling impatience to declare some sort of a win.
I am also an Apple user, but not a 'fan'. I gave Apple the credit they are due for their marketing regarding pushing Retina. My reply was aimed at someone who was insinuating Apple were responsible for high dpi displays in devices. Nothing in your post negated or was relevant to what I said, you just took an irrelevant tangent trying to discredit the phone I mentioned, as if that in some way negated the validity of my comments.
However, I'll bite on the phone, just for fun, even though that is not germane to the issue I was addressing.
I actually bought a Jet so asking me if I 'get the picture' is a bit ironic, because pictures were one of the main reasons I bought it. It was a feature phone, not a smart phone and was priced accordingly. It was quite a way from being Samsung's flagship model. I actually liked that it was very lightweight. That belied the fact it was well built and is physically tough (as 2 years in the hands of a teen have proved). I would bet it would better survive drops onto a hard surface better than the same milieu iPhone 3gs.
Very classy of you to selectively quote from the techradar review. Some bits you missed:
Quote:
it still packs some mean hardware under the hood.
And we're not just being complimentary of the specs by saying that, we're talking an industry-leading 800MHz processor powering the performance from a dinky frame (108.9 x 53.5 x 11.9mm) on a 3.1-inch AMOLED screen.
While it's hard to see where this might rival the iPhone in the mobile phone market, bar having a touchscreen, it's certainly cheaper than most of its smartphone rivals, with users getting a free phone and paying less on their contract and up to £150 less to pick up the handset SIM free.
The first thing that hits you when you pick up the Samsung Jet S8000 is just how small it is. While the dimensions will give you an idea just how dinky it is, it's very hard to describe just how diminutive this feels in the hand.
This is a double-edged sword for the phone: on the one hand, the Samsung Jet S8000 fits very well in the pocket and is a real pleasure to carry around compared to some of the other chunka-phones on offer.
However, on the other hand, the plastic chassis and the 110g weight count against it, as it feels a little lightweight and, dare we say it, cheap in the hand.
Put's that 'cheap feel' into better perspective when you include the full quote.
Quote:
Samsung's reason for including its proprietary TouchWiz interface is apparently due to trying to keep costs down and make it affordable for consumers in these credit-crunched times.
...
Calling on the Samsung Jet S8000 was a pretty decent experience, with call coverage better than average in most cases. The pleasing thing was this was mostly 3.5G HSDPA coverage too, meaning that where we could chat, we could also surf should we be so inclined.
...
The camera on the Samsung Jet S8000 is a 5MP effort, but with the added beauty of a dual LED. What this means is while colours don't look any more vibrant (the method of producing white LEDs means they are very poor at reproducing a full colour gamut compared to the likes of Xenon) the lighting isn't so harsh, and the shadows are reduced somewhat, which is a good thing obviously.
The sheer variety of scene modes we've been treated to on previous high-end Samsung models are here once again on the Jet S8000, with the likes of night mode, sports, sunset and dawn all giving you a wide variety of options. Of course there's no digital zoom, but you can always put together some lovely panorama shots instead to make yourself feel better, and of course 2GB of internal storage means no more worrying about filling up another memory card.
...
The video recording on the Jet S8000, a VGA 30 fps offering (with a 120fps slo-mo mode too) is pretty darned decent, and probably a shade better than the iPhone 3GS (which people have been going a little crazy for if you haven't noticed), with manual or auto exposure adjustment keeping things nice and crisp.
...
The OLED screen is currently the piece of hardware on a phone that brings the 'Wow factor' and Samsung is rightfully pushing it for all it's worth, with the Jet S8000 being the third or fourth from the Koreans to make use of the technology.
Not only that, but we're also treated to a headphone jack, so media on the go will be a lot less wire-filled than before, and we won't have to fork out time and again for a new adaptor when we break them.
....
Watching a video on the Samsung Jet S8000 was predictably a lovely experience, with the AMOLED screen oozing colour and dripping with high-contrast ratios. The 3.1-inch screen is far too small to watch a full length movie on, but juice up the memory with a few music videos and you've got a perfect fit.
...
We managed to flick through a number of different standards of video easily on the Samsung Jet S8000, with a huge number of codecs pleasingly supported.
...
FM Radio
We liked this application a lot, mostly because it was easy to set up, had very good reception for a phone, and you could not only identify tracks but also record them too.
The Find Music function simply asked you to record a section of the track, which is then sent to the server. Once completed, it then sends you the name of the song, the artist, album art and a link to download it from the Samsung music store.
We had to applaud such tight integration from Samsung on the method of bringing users from the radio to the store - not even Apple can boast such integration on the iPhone 3GS.
But what lost us right at the end was the exorbitant price of purchasing said music, with each track costing £3 as far as our tests could show.
...
Video editing is fairly comprehensive (much more so than the iPhone 3GS, and we know how giddy the world went for that when learning you can TRIM A VIDEO) with the ability to splice, cut, copy and more, as well as adding audio tracks, although MP3s weren't compatible for some reason.
...
One of the big plus points of an OLED screen is the fact it uses a lot less power than its LCD counterparts, which means a longer lasting battery - and the Samsung Jet S8000 certainly makes use of it.
We managed to get around one and a half days' usage out of it when leaning on the phone fairly heavily (one manufacturer once called us a power user... we didn't like that label as we have neither a Filofax nor do we 'do lunch' with 'Samson from Accounts') and even managed to coax two days' worth of use out of it when we realised late on that we'd forgotten our charger.
...
The new PC Studio 3.1 software has allowed Samsung to re-think the way people use their phone with a PC, and this looks and works fabulously. It essentially turns your phone into a PDA portal, and while the functions might not look or work as well on the handset, they look almost Mac-esque on the PC. There are separate windows to access your organiser, calendar, movies, photos and almost everything else, as well as being able to send text messages from your PC.
...
We've often said we're fans of this interface, and nice touches like being able to configure the system so that drag-and-drop files were automatically converted to a more phone-friendly format were a real bonus. A common feature of mobile phone PC software is the ability to encode files to fit the handset, and while this is possible here (for instance with MP3 playback from other less well-liked formats) the sheer amount of codecs supported (MP4, DivX, AVI) mean that you're very unlikely to need to, which is a real bonus.
We'd go as far as saying the new software was actually a new reason to connect the phone to a PC, other than as a modem or to back up contacts, as it adds a whole new dimension to the Samsung Jet S8000.
...
You can always use the phone as a modem as well, which might not please your network (especially if it's O2), although if you don't constantly use your Jet for surfing day in, day out, you might just get away with it (and also be sticking two fingers up to Apple iPhone 3G / 3GS users as well).
...
We've noted the Samsung Jet S8000 feels a little cheap on numerous occasions. To be fair to the designers, it's meant to be a slightly less expensive handset in order to entice the more tech-savvy consumer who doesn't want to throw oodles of hard-earned cash at his or her new phone.
We liked
Overall, although there's a lot to pick at with the Samsung Jet S8000, as a package it just works. We're not sure what it is that tickles our fancy, whether it's the near perfect palm-sized dimensions or the glorious OLED screen, but when we usually find niggles with a phone we start to dislike it quickly.
The opposite has happened here. We weren't sure with the hands on, but quickly warmed to a phone that does manage to do a whole lot and do it well. The music and media on it may be a little lightweight, but is certainly up to the task (especially recording from the radio) and the camera is an excellent bit of hardware in a teeny package.
...
The verdict
The Samsung Jet S8000 is a phone that does a lot of things, and does them pretty well, and all in a small and well formed package. We're not sure about calling it affordable when it's hitting the market at around £350 SIM free, although it is significantly cheaper than its rivals and is on offer for some pretty cheap contract deals too.
When reviewing these products you start to get a feel for the star rating as you go, and we believed this was going to be a nailed-on 3.5/5 as we started to explore the intricacies of the Samsung Jet S8000. But weirdly there's a sense that it works, the package comes together to offer a good proposition that will satisfy many but heavily impress few, so the final score isn't too bad in the end.
Samsung has had a really good effort with the Jet S8000, making a phone full of decent hardware and not forcing users to break the bank to pick it up. It's good, but we feel it could have been a lot better with some very minor tweaks.
Overall, the Jet S8000 is worth looking at for those that love their technology but have a bit of a budget to work to.
So without the selective quoting, it turns out not to be the dog you implied.
The GSMArena review was positive, concluding:

Anyway, the Samsung Jet is bound to rub shoulders with devices that fall in quite a different price range. But if smartphone skill is a must, you will simply have to dig extra deep in your pocket and asset your sights on Samsung i8910 Omnia HD (for the features) or an Apple iPhone (for the attitude). But hey, if some delighted Jet user should tell you their device kicks the snot out of Omnia HD and the iPhone, just don't be too quick to laugh it up.
There were several reasons I bought the jet - value, performance, media playback, the brilliant screen, modem, form factor, but chiefly for the excellent camera. I gave the phone to my son after his got laundered. It is still in use and fully functional. I have several times asked him if he would like something more up-to-date but he keeps turning down the offer saying it still does everything he wants a phone for.

Recognition of stupidity (or, personal insults, as you call them) does not mean that what was said was not a fact, and I'd say a 'decisive argument winning stratagem' probably was achieved more from your inability to respond, rather than any of my responses.
And let's face it, it's treatment like this that brings you Apple-Haters to this forum.
You're finally getting that attention that you've always wanted!

And let's face it, it's treatment like this that brings you Apple-Haters to this forum.
You're finally getting that attention that you've always wanted!
Enjoy! (>_<)
