If you've shelled out the bucks for an expensive and feature-rich Samsung phone, you're certainly missing out on some important updates and features if you don't have Samsung Kies installed.
With Kies, you can keep your mobile phone connected to your home PC at all times via WiFi. You can keep all of your important content, contacts and messages in sync with your Windows PC. With that in mind, it can also save you in mobile billing charges by performing software updates and firmware upgrades to your phone when you're at home and via Kies.
Samsung's Kies application will also keep your Samsung Galaxy II/Galaxy/Galaxy S/Galaxy SIII phone synced with your Microsoft Outlook accounts, you Google profile(s) and even now supports Yahoo! accounts with the addition of yMail and Yahoo! Messenger.
Though Kies isn't currently compatible with all Samsung Devices, it is certainly a must-have for your Galaxy S II or your Galaxy Tab devices. All of these products are currently available in Canada and the U.S. from Telus Mobility, Bell Mobility and Rogers Wireless.
System requirements for running Samsung Kies are not too stringest. You're just required to have a modern and updated version of Windows XP/Vista/7 and some free memory.
