Samsung Star S5233S Unboxed

When I first receive this Samsung Star (Samsung S5233S) last week, I thought the LG Cookie has found a new competitor in the affordable full touch screen phone segment. Check out the pictures I took after the jump.

Labeled under the Samsung S5230 line, the Samsung Star doesn’t have much in connectivity — no 3G, no WiFi, no GPS — but has a full 3.0-inch (240×400 pixels) touch screen.

It’s gonna be very affordable and will target Samsung fans looking to try a touchscreen phone without putting a hole in the pocket. Haven’t gotten the official price yet but expect it to be between Php10k to Php15k.

    Hi guys,

    Sabi nila nagkakaproblema nga daw ang WIFI nya kaya parang nag aalalngan akong bilhin kung palagiang nag aask ng WIFI IP of your own CP then next time you access like for example when I was in Starbucks with my friends, anyway she has Samsung Star with wifi but then it keeps on asking for CP’s IP add.. How come? Its weird. So should I get one? :)

    Turns out, they need my MAC address, not my IP. Found it tho, by turning on WIFI -> search -> the WIFI server that shows -> details. It’s under Device MAC. Hope this helps others.

    Thanks Patrick. Let me rephrase my question. How do I find my phone’s IP address? My broadband internet service provider limits connections to paying customers only. My notebook can connect WIFI-ly because my notebook’s IP address is registered with them. I need to give them my phone’s IP address so that it too can be registered. Where do I find it? Help please!

    Dave In Jeddah,

    Provider of what? Internet? You should be the one connecting on them, not them connecting to your phone , that’s the purpose of WIFI. Also, your broadband should be connected to a wifi router so that your samsung star can connect to it.

    Help please on setting up WIFI on Samsung S5233W. My provider is asking for phone IP but all I see are zeros (4x).
