Pros: Size, clarity, coolness
Cons: Can't really hold it on your shoulder to talk
I reviewed a few phones and the Samsungs really stood out from the rest. Like someone else said, EVERYONE has the StarTac so why not be different. I was going to get the 3500, but this one was smaller and had a better display. I usually use it pretty...

Pros: Small, but not small enough to lose in your pocket permanently. A ton of features.
Cons: Ringing tones aren't customizable and there isn't a wide variety of them.
Overall it's a really great phone. I've had mine about a month and still love it as much as I did at the beginning. The many features are truly great. It'll take a while for most to find them all. Great features like calendar plus word recognition from...

Pros: Small, big address book
Cons: Thick, no songs
The Samsung-8500 has good reception and durability, and has a big address book that is simple. But there seems to be more cons. First, the phone is small but it's thick. There's no songs for the ringers.. only annoying regular phone sounds. The antenna...

Pros: Durable little phone with tons of options. Great for business.
Cons: May be too many options for some users.
I need a cellular phone for work as I'm on-call 24-7. Being in the medical profession I need a phone that won't let me down, I can't afford to miss calls as I never know which one will be an emergency. I've tried several different phones and several...

Pros: Small, durable, functional,
large LCD.
Cons: Pricey without rebate.
I purchased the Samsung SCH 8500 as part
of a recent Sprint promotion for new customers.
This allowed me to receive a $100 rebate on the
phone, so it really only cost $99, which is hard to
beat for a reliable mobile phone.

Pros: small, light, good directory feature, voice dialing, dual mode
Cons: worthless web browser and calendar features
I bought this phone to replace an older Sony phone. This one is much smaller and lighter with better battery life.
The built in phone directory is great; you can store a couple hundred names and up to 6 phone numbers for each. You can also...

Pros: This phone has everything, and everything works wonderfully.
Cons: Doesn't live up to time between
recharges.
With this phone, my home phone, and my computer,
anyone in the world can get in touch with me 24 hours a
day, 365 days a year. With email, voicemail, paging,
messaging, internet access, I feel connected.
Unfortunately no one wants to...

Pros: GREAT PHONE WITH GREAT FEATURES
Cons: NO SPEAKERPHONE
THAT'S RIGHT, IT WAS FREE, AND IF YOU ARE A BUSINESS CUSTOMER YOU MIGHT BE ABLE TO GET IT FREE TOO. I'LL TELL YOU HOW A LITTLE LATER ON, BUT FIRST LET ME SING THE PRAISES OF THE BEST DAMNED CELL PHONE I HAVE EVER HAD.
THE SAMSUNG SCH-8500 IS...
