The Bottom Line: If you are looking for a sleek phone with many features this is the one for you. Not recommended for your first phone or those looking for the basics.

Welcome to another installment of boy I have to many phones. The Samsung S105 is one of the smartest phones to hit the GSM Network in quite sometime. Here is a rundown and rating on this monster.

Battery Life
With two batteries (from T-Mobile) including an extended life you have as much battery life as your going to need. Just keep both batteries charged and keep one in easy access just in case.

(For Standard Battery)
Information Gathered from SamsungUSA.com
Talk Time Up to 4 Hours
Stand-By Time Up To 100

GRADE: 4 out of 5

Reception
With Reception close to a Nokia and much better then a Motorola its easy to say that reception should not be a problem. I was able to use this phone in the normal places I travel as well as many rural and out of the way that I thought that it wouldn't work at all.

GRADE: 4 out of 5

EASE OF USE
With a bright color menu and large easy to navigate buttons its a breeze to fly through the menu options after you've learned where everything is on it. With a little practice I found myself able to run through the menu without having to look at the phone itself.

GRADE: 5 out of 5

THE LOOK
Phone are there to keep you in style as well as in touch and with this little beauty that shouldn't be a problem. Slim and sleek Silver design with a flip and outside caller ID. A full color screen as well as downloadable polyphonic ring tones and back grounds gives you the chance to customize the phone to suit you.

GRADE: 5 out of 5

The Overall

Recommended: Yes
