Let me clarify one thing here itself that Wave 533 does not support 3G network unlike mentioned on many websites including Naaptol on the web. I inquired about this myself from The Mobile Store located in Pune and even they confirmed this. The video below will clarify that there is NO 3G network supported by Wave 533.

The phone sucks as compared to the other phones available in the market at this price. I got it in October for around 10.1k, but I realized it was one of the my biggest mistake. Why did I go for Bada when I could have got an Android phone *Galaxy, Andro* with even more cool features and 3G.

I just threw it last month and got a GALAXY 3.

Please tell more about Bada OS in comparison to Android OS as you have used both. This will benefit readers to chose their Mobile OS.
