Samsung E-magine

Advantages: Slim, light, easy to use, good sound system
Disadvantages: Poor quality camera, outdated

...After my Nokia 7373 broke, I should say after I broke it, but that's not something to go into now, I realised I was still paying for a £35 a month contract and getting no benefit so I went in search in a new phone. The problem is now when you buy a pay as you go phone that so many of them are network locked, so I knew I was far better off buying a phone on the right network. Better safe than sorry. I didn't think I was in any great rush to buy a phone but one lunchtime after a particularly bad morning at college, I decided to pop along to the local Tesco and have a look for a new phone. The choice was relatively limited but amongst the usual tat I noticed something that I quite liked. It was a Samsung E250. I had previously had the D500, about eighteen months ago, so I knew they were reliable, the menus were easy to use...

Review of Samsung SGH E250

Samsung E900

Advantages: Style
Disadvantages: Not an iPhone (Isn't packed with features), Processing noise

...I bought my Samsung E900 a few years ago now for around £80. I wasn't looking for anything fancy and this phone was exactly that - quite good looking with pretty basic features. ~~~ Looks / Style ~~~ I was looking through a catalogue at all the various phones and this appeared to be one of the best looking without being too expensive. When I finally got it I was just as pleased with it looking at it for real as I was when looking at it in the catalogue. It has a shiny black finish, which can show fingerprints quite clearly and the overall look and feel of the phone is smooth. When you don't touch it for a few seconds it basically just looks like a black box with a silver button in the middle. ~~~ Ease of Use ~~~ My main use for the phone is for texting. It's very easy to that on this phone, because you can...

Samsung E250

Advantages: Planner
Disadvantages: Memory card needed

...The Samsung E250 is a bit of a let down to my other phone which broke and I have had a lot of phones but the reasons why it is a good phone are shown below along with a few bad points but every phone has bad points this one has an advantage to other phones. The fact that it is a slide phone mean that it is helpful for calls all you have to do is just have slide it up and the call is answered. The phone has good reception, which is good because the majority of phones have poor reception. If you want a phone the better the reception the better the phone actually is. The phones colour is great and has some depth to it. I have owned many phones and this one is the best by far for colour. The phone has a VGA camera which is ok for videos and pictures the effects that the edit section has are brilliant it allows you to add clipart, frames...

Snap Happy Samsung!

Advantages: Great camera at a great price.
Disadvantages: None at the price, you get a great item for what you pay!

...'t worry about getting surroundings in, this can be trimmed later). Then use the zoom (+ button at the top rigth) to zoom into the desired area with surprising definition and trim! Ace. Oh and another thing, recharging this camera is lemon-squeezy, since you just plug it in via the USB/ mains charger. Battery life is great and apparently outsmarts AAA battery cameras hands down (I have only had to charge my camera a few times since I got it). Please have a butchers at this website to see the specs I promised: http://www.cameras.co.uk/specs/samsung-es55.cfm Ok, I think I got everything. I did write a longer review but argh pressed the back button! If I think of anything else, I'll add it on later! Extras: Child mode to enable quick pictures (e.g. children/ pets who are always scrambling out of shot!); Fast shutter speed and flash charge....

Review of Samsung SGH E250

Decent Samsung E250

Advantages: Bluetooth, Practical, External memory, MP3 capable, Excellent multimedia services.
Disadvantages: Fragile, Shortlife battery, Not 3G capable, complicated menu.

...The Samsung E250 is a great cell phone despite its mentionable flaws and critical points with an overall rating that will suit the need of the mass community and will reach your expectations. First of all, SME250 is based GSM 900 / 1800 / 1900 terminal, a 2G (EDGE, so it's a 2.75G ) unfortunately not a 3G, so you can't make video conference phone call. But, that's a not big loss comparing the big range of features. The clamshell (comes in different colors, black, silver, pink) design is very slick and lovable. A dimension of 99.5 x 49.5 x 14.1 mm, weighing 80g makes the phone very light (you won't feel in your pocket or purse (for the ladies ;)) and very fragile piece of equipment as well. I've heard several complaints about the design regarding the keypad and the screen display, possibility getting damage in short term of usage...

Samsung E900

Advantages: Stylish design. Easy to use. Simple menus. Takes good photos/video. Sliding mechanism works well.
Disadvantages: Accidental button presses. Light remains on when charging. Vibrates too much when battery is dying.

...The Samsung E900 is a very stylish looking phone, it measures 93x45x16.5 mm, so it is very slim and lightweight, and it is barely noticeable in your pocket. I have mine in black but it also comes in pink, gold and silver I believe. The user interface is intuitive and the menu structure is easily navigated. Having expected to have to sit there for hours to get used to navigating new menus, I was pleasantly surprised to find that everything appeared to be where it should be, making the E900 an easy phone to get used to, and use to its full potential. It comes equipped with a 2MP, 4x digital zoom camera with flash, which can also record video with sound. The camera does take very nice photos, and there are a whole host of settings available to alter the type of picture you're taking e.g. Picture size, Picture quality, ISO. More than...

Review of Samsung SGH-E900

The Samsung E720

Advantages: Mega-Pixel Camera, Video, MP3 Player, Bluetooth, USB, Stylish Design
Disadvantages: No Infra-Red port and the cover picture disappears too quickly.

...Deciding it was time to get a new phone, I was initially enchanted by the stylish Samsung D500. As I was browsing, however, I found, on a cheaper contract, the E720, essentially released at the same time. There are numerous reviews on Ciao of its predecessors, the E700 and E710 but it should certainly not be confused with these? I have had this phone for two weeks now and, as it is released by pretty much every network on their contracts this month, I think it's important I convey my thoughts on it. As yet I have found no hardware or software problems with it (as sadly mattshaw4 found with his E710) but will update this if I do, it does not appear likely. Visually, the E720 is possibly the nicest flip-phone I have seen, on paper its dimensions are 91 x 45 x 23 (mm), which when closed is the size of a small packet of paracetemol; I...

Review of Samsung E720

Samsung E900

Advantages: Good features
Disadvantages: Been said to not have good durability

.... Bluetooth can not be tampered with from another bluetooth handset user but older phones which has been connected with your own are easy to be controlled by this phone, on this phone you will be asked to allow if somebody tries to acess your information, so files cannnot be downloaded unless to allow them to, nice feature. MP3 is clear and easy to use and can be made in a walkman so you can listen to your music anywhere at anytime. USB unfortunatly my usb cable sometimes will not connect to my pc but I think this maybe my pc and samsung software and not infact my phone. I was told that the robustness of the phone was not excellent and when dorpped the screen would crack, I do have a cracked screen through dorpping this phone but is not really that noticable. So the durability is said to be a little rubbish. For best results I would...
