Smartphone for the masses or feature phone of the future? Samsung would gladly have it either way. Proper developer support and a fast growing app store will be a must too. We’re about to see what the Samsung S8500 Wave is really capable of. The S8500 Wave did well in our preview and - fingers crossed - unpleasant surprises are not on today’s menu. The OS is trying to combine feature-phone ease of use with the versatility of smartphones. The S8500 Wave fits the bill. Trademark Samsung exterior and premium build are inviting enough to encourage exploring a wealth of features.

The S8500 Wave tries to give it all and hopes the Samsung app store will eventually catch up. Anyway, there just aren’t enough Bada OS compatible applications yet so there’s little difference (beyond hardware) between the Samsung S8500 Wave and a Samsung S8000 Jet.
You get both HSDPA and HSUPA support, as well as Bluetooth v3.0 and Wi-Fi with WPS and Wi-Fi tethering.
