    4 Stars A Smart Phone at a Smart Price, but Not for Beginners 12/09/2011

    Advantages Advantages Looks good, feature-packed, everything works pretty seamlessly

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Complicated settings menus and configurations

    When the battery of my LG Viewty Smart died I decided rather than replace the battery I’d get a new phone (much more fun I’m sure you’ll agree!). However as I only had a few months until my contract ended and I qualified for a free upgrade I didn’t want to get anything too expensive as it would only really be a stop-gap for me. After looking around online for a while I thought the Samsung Galaxy Europa for £60 on pay-as-you-go with 3 seemed like a good choice, allowing me to use my 3 Contract simcard and giving a good range of features for a reasonable price, so that’s what I went for. Quick ... more

    5 Stars A smart little Smart Phone 04/02/2012
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Good screen size, good features for an android

    Disadvantages Disadvantages a little tricky to navigate the settings

    Samsung Galaxy Europa GT- I5500~~~Background~~~I have had this phone for about a year now and have been very pleased with it. I got it free with my '3' contract and I suppose I was drawn to it because it was smart, slimline and had features enbedded that I already used like social networks and Google search. I teach and my school PC will not allow any forum or social networking sites to be loaded (which is fair enough) so using my phone to check emails and my facebook etc was a benefit to me.It is my first 'Andriod' phone and to be honest until recently I didn't really know what it meant ... more

    Introduction First of all, I'd like to thank you for reading my review.

Anyway, enjoy the review! :) P.S. Some words in the paragraph are in bold but that is only to show the key factors of the phone so if some people want to know basic things like the price, they can easily do so :) Basics The Samsung Galaxy Europa I5500 (also known ... more

    4 Stars A nice, easy to use phone 16/09/2012
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages looks good, simple to use

    Disadvantages Disadvantages doesn't have any features which make it stand out from the crowd

    I was using this phone for a couple of months when my old phone broke and I had to wait for an upgrade. The phone costs £40 used and £70 new on Amazon. The phone and screen are a good size and it is easy to see what you are doing. This phone came with a charger and a USB cable so I can charge it when it is plugged into the laptop, I can also transfer videos and music between my laptop and phone. This was my first time using a Samsung mobile and I was worried that it would be tricky to use but due to the fact that it is an Android phone and touch screen, it was easy to use as my previous phone ... more
