Samsung S3100 User Reviews

I absolutely love this phone. I'm surprised by some of the other reviews here as I haven't had any problems. My predictive texting works fine and is always on unless I switch it off. The screen is a good size and the writing clear. The opening menu is customisable so the features you use most are easily at hand without having to go into the main menu or you can attribute your most used features to the main button on the phone. The slide is smooth and automatically locks the phone on closing. The phone can be answered either open or closed.

One of the main features I love, and Is not mentioned by Samsung and was the main reason I bought this phone, is the built in capability to block unwanted phone numbers!!! The block can apply to calls or texts (or both although they are set up separately). If a number is bothering you simply enter on to the block list! Not having to contact the police or report to your network provider or having to change your number, it's BRILLIANT!!

The camera is 1.3mp so adequate and the picture quality isn't bad at all, but of course it would never replace a real camera. Very handy though for impromptu snaps. The Internet side of this phone isn't something I use allot, but it does work. Ring-tones and music can be downloaded to the phone so easy to personalise, and it takes MP3's. It also takes a memory card so how much you store is up to you. The phone also has safety features such as emergency calling which is easily set up and fake call, for those times you need a call to get out of awkward situations! Both excellent features, especially I think for women. All in all I could rave about this phone all day. I love it!!!

Good phone, fast and efficient, and decent looking for the price. However, minor irritations with the texting, I find. Predictive must be manually turned on at the start of every message, or, more inconveniently, at the end of every text in preparation for the next.

Words added to the phones dictionary stay in memory for an alarmingly short period of time, sometimes just a few texts. Even words I've added such as "XXX" (as in kisses) which I use with every text will one day just not appear, and must be readded. This is an annoyance, and in some ways a step back from some older Samsung models.

It has no real major problems, and should give the user a reasonable experience provided you don't want a phone to perform the functions of a cheap laptop as many new and expensive models do.

This phone looks good and is easy to use although the sliding handset does have a tendency to slide shut during calls which can be a problem.

The screen is clear and the keypad is user friendly with the numbers and letters being slightly larger than on some other phones. It is quick and easy to customise with backgrounds fonts etc.

Overall I am very pleased with this phone which I feel was good value for money.

Good reliable phone which is easy to use. Good price very cheap. Would like it more if there was some tone's included before I used it. All the write tools needed ie facebook and myspace. Not too big and fit's in pocket. Takes good photo's and give's you plenty of memory to store thing's onto it.

A simple to use mobile phone, great design which includes weight and size. Could do with a larger text font as it is on par with the awful font of Sony Ericsson. Overall though a really nice phone with great sound and ease of use. great value for the money.
