Pros: It's an amazing phone, i enjoy texting on it. Features at first may be a little confusing but once you get familiar with it, its almost perfect. Play's Music as well.

Cons: There are a few things in the phone that may frustrate some people. First of all the sound quality could be better, it's small speaker makes it difficult at times to hear people on the other line. And again with speaker, if u like listening to music on your phone, its not the best, it doesn't play music loudly, although the sound quality is average.

Summary: Good phone. Easy to use. Music feature is nice, although complicated. Good for texting if u do enjoy the number pad. Durable.

I have experienced some recent problems. When ive been texting or what not, it just turns off.

My battery life is very nice, it doesn't die frequently.

Crippled phone designed to get you to upgrade or spend money on other services

Pros: Inexpensive, somewhat customizable menus, useful tools, decent sound quality

Cons: No USB connectivity, not compatible with AT&T Mobile Backup, Small display and can’t change font size, No display on front cover of the phone.

Summary: I bought this phone because it was cheap and got what I paid for. It’s only good for people who want a standard phone setup and don’t have many entries in their phonebook.

You can’t connect this phone to a PC. Samsung confirmed that so don’t believe ads you see for data cables If you want custom ringtones or graphics in this phone you’ll have to pay your carrier for them. It’s not compatible with AT&T Mobile Backup so if you lose the phone, your address book is gone forever.

Since there is no display on the front of the phone, you have to open the phone to see who’s calling.

I plan to buy a new phone on ebay to replace this one.

Good Value

Pros: Small, unobtrusive, fairly easy setup, very good battery life, good reception

Cons: Limited features

Summary: I've been using this phone for almost three years and have no complaints. Very few dropped calls; only when other party is traveling. Fairly easy setup; except the manual is probably written by a Chinese or Korean person. I've had great luck with the battery in standby mode; lasts 3-5 days depending on usage. Fully recharges in an hour usually. Very sturdy; durable. Great basic cell phone. I would recommend it but it's probably out-of-date.

It's nice

Pros: It's nice, and it's small and has some nice features

Cons: no camera and buttons are a little small

Summary: I just got this and I already got yelled at for playing with it. It's nice looking and has some nice features. Something I think is cool is that it has a tip calculator which is a shortcut calculator that tells you a sufficient tip for your bill depending on your percentage you put in (15% is default). All in all it's a good starter phone but eventually I'm giving it to my mom so I can get the Samsung Eternity.

Pros: very long battery life and good speaker phone quality

Cons: I can't think of any

Summary: I bought this phone over 2 years ago and the battery life is great. I don't use it but to make sporatic calls every now and again. The battery life even after 2 years is unbelievable. I have told my husband has gone through 3 phones with other companies and still doesn't think that I know what's a good buy.
