Get something else
by bardo ,Mar 16 '04
Pros: Works good as modem Cons: Poor quality on voice, not reliable at all
The only thing that works very well on this phone is using it as a modem with my laptop. Never had a problem with this.
Anything else is very poor...
* poor transmission quality ( either I break up or I cannot be heard at all)
*battery life (70 minutes talk time or 24 hour standby max (in digital coverage area....I could understand this if it was an analog coverage area)
*ringers not loud enough and vibrating alert is feeble at best (useless)
*dropping calls, never receiving calls, and receiving voice mails 2 days after they were posted. This is the killer for me. Then again this may be a flaw in the Verizon network and not the phone's fault.
Other people I work with hate this phone as dearly as I do.
It is not suitable for professional use at all.
Following the example of my peers I shall replace this wannabe-phone soon.
But then again, it looks very pretty and trendish. Once I have my new phone, I shall nail it to a wall. Great art deco piece.
Needless to say I will never get a Samsung product again.

A true piece of crap
by greggie195 ,Mar 03 '04
Pros: comes in a nice box, breaks into pretty pieces when smashed Cons: sucks
sucks
sucks
I will never buy anything from Samsung again!
I got this horrible phone after my kyocera broke for the last time and I ended up smashing it. The nerd at Radio-crap said it was a work horse. Well within a few months the thing just wouldnt turn on. Radio Crack sent it out to Samsung and after a month I got it back and it work for all of 2 hours. And then the same thing, I finally gave up on it and went back to using an old broken phone which is better than this piece of crap! Plus I emailed samsung numerous times and they never responded.

Don't buy this phone
by shadzoflyfe ,Oct 02 '03
Pros: small. Big buttons. Bright screen. 500 name address book. Internet ready. GPS emergency location feature. Cons: See review body for all cons
Heats up.
Freezes occasionally so that I'm unable to receive or make calls. I won't know the phone is frozen until I try to make a call. I have to remove the battery to reset the phone.
Also, several friends have told me that my voice breaks up and cuts out when I talk to them. This happens often and usually if it is a 10 minute or longer phone call. My friends' voices also cut out often.
The speaker often diminishes in volume in the middle of a conversation and then increases to its previous volume.
As of yesterday, the mic does not work.
Battery lasts from 8am-12am. Mostly in standby. I've had the battery die in standby mode from 8am-3pm.
All in all, I liked my analog Nokia pre-paid phone better. I could at least depend on it for uninterrupted service and no software glitches.
