Pros: Bright LCD screen, great quality sound, and tons of features, lighter than helium
Cons: Bad ringer choices

I recently got rid of my Nokia 3390 mobile phone, for its bad reception and heavy-weight. I got a new service and I go the R225 for about 30 bucks, and it was definatly worth it.

Advantages:
- This phone is one of the lightest phones I...

Pros: Cool looking, lightweight, good features
Cons: Ping-pong messages don't always work, can't get onto the Internet

I always said I'd never get a cellphone. I hate when someone's phone rings during class, in the middle of a store, or even church! (My church had to put in their weekly bulletin a request to turn off all phones and pagers during the service, which I...

Pros: AOL IM compatible, easy to setup/use, blue screen, very light
Cons: not WAP internet compatible, no hi speed data transfer capability

The first time I saw this phone in June 2002. I said I gotta get this phone no matter what. Of course there are more stylish phones now but for the price ($0 to $89.99) this phone is a great overall value.
First off, the blue screen really sticks...

Pros: Small, easy to operate, good service
Cons: absolutely none

I recently signed up for voicestream (TMobile) and bought this phone as part of my package. I paid $49 for the phone and it was worth every penny of it. My wife got a cheaper nokia phone and it is not as easy to navigate as this one. This phone has...

Pros: Very good reception and battery life
Cons: No color screen

My old Sony Ericsson T300 recently had problems and T-Mobile offered to give me this phone as a replacement. It does not have all of the features of my old phone, but then again, I hardly used those features, so this was OK with me and better than ...

Pros: Durable, Good battery life, Robust earpiece connection, Reliable software (no crashes or hangs), "Cute" styling
Cons: Rubber earphone cover difficult to remove, Doesn't sync time and date, "Cute" styling :)

I love this phone. I've been using it for a couple of months, so I can say that it is both reliable and durable. I have had perhaps 7 phones now, and this is one of my favorites. It's battery life is among the best I've had - I can usually get ...

Pros: Compact, Good Looks, and Kewl Backlight
Cons: Short Battery Life.

I bought this phone the replace my current Samsung phone. Overall the R225 phone performs well. The clarity is much better than my previous one. The backlight is really good as well. The GSM chip is the way to go in case I decide to switch to another...

Pros: Size, Weight, Ease of use, Reliability, durability, now available free!!
Cons: Headset fails easily, limited availability of accessories.

Let me tell you where I'm coming from......When I look for a cell phone, I'm looking for a mobile communication device. Something I can use to keep in contact with my family & job. I don't buy it as a games machine, I have a PS2 for that at home, and ...

Pros: Lightweight. Inexpensive. Straightforward. Excellent on the basics. Not necessarily for "power users." Euro-compatible.
Cons: Not as high-tech as other costlier models. Vibrating ring could be stronger.

I have used this phone for approximately 15 months on Voicestream (now T-Mobile). I think the 225 is a superb "basic" phone. Slim, light, great backlighting, and, in my opinion, good sound. Fits nicely in lapel pockets. It doesn't cost an arm and a leg ...

Pros: light, compact, bright display, cheap
Cons: no voice-dialing, games could be better

I got this phone for $30 with a 1-year subscription to T-Mobile.
Let me say, this is my 1st ever cell phone, but i've done plnety of research and compared many

First of all, the good:
Very small and light, i like it!
The display...

Pros: Small, durable, ergonomic, easy to use
Cons: Short battery life

Having used a Samsung in the past, I was quite inclined toward purchasing another. I figured out what service provider I wanted and then went on to choose a phone, hoping they had a Samsung available.

After reading some reviews and looking at...

Pros: This digital beauty is a gem!
Cons: It is extremely lightweight and subject to loss if not kept an eye on!

I just purchased this phone and I love the clarity, the style, and the user-friendly menu. Although I haven't had it long enough to make a long-term opinion, I have been immediately impressed by it.

The display is absolutely fantastic! Blue...

Pros: Cheap, good battery life, very bright back light.
Cons: Games suck.

I was put into a predicament after having to move out of my apartment abruptly at the end of August. Once I moved into the new place, I had no phone and no email! I became impossible to contact.

So, after much prodding, I went ahead and...

Pros: Stylish design, lightweight, cool features, AIM inside, has its own e-mail address
Cons: No address book, no Internet

I recently switched from Verizon (with them almost 3 years) to Voicestream (T-Mobile) and saw an ad for free everything, including the Samsung R225m. I had wanted the R225m phone but balked at the $90 price tag, so I was thinking of getting one of the...

Pros: Very lightweight, easy-to-see-in-the-dark blue backlight, features pretty decent, easy 'pocket' phone
Cons: Talk and ringer volume not loud, vibrates very softly, cannot download screensavers.

Even set at the loudest, you can have trouble hearing the other person speak or even hearing the phone ring. The pre-set ringers are not good. Download some for yourself. Very light weight and extremely portable. Blue backlight gets everyones...
