Around 6 months ago I went on holiday and managed to leave my samsung phone charger at home. Since I am of a generation that cannot function without a phone I went off in search of a charger. My discovery? A new charger would cost me £15, a new samsung phone £20. Hence how I came to own the Samsung C3050, yet another of Samsung's low-cost mobiles. But does low-cost mean low-performance? The Look The C3050 is black, non-descript, fits in the palm of your hand and is roughly the same thickness as a female hand. It slides open easily to reveal a keypad, which automatically glows to highlight the numbers. The basic screen has the time ...  Read the complete review

I think it is safe to say that ever since I got my first mobile back in 2005 (yeah I was rather a late starter) I never realized just how many I would go through in just 6 years! There's my original Nokia which was rather useless for the most part but wasn't bad for texting. Then there was the newer Nokia (I can't remember the make) which had the 0 and 8 partially broken. You've no idea how hard it is to text when you can't use spaces every time the phone decides to go in a mood. A new Sony Ericsson was meant to solve that problem in 2008 but a month after getting it, in a freak accident it ended up in the washing machine. Go figure. Now to my latest mobile ...  Read the complete review

When it comes to mobile phones I guess I am about as conservative as it is possible to get, my first I hated with a passion but was forced to use it for work. My second was a dream come true, it did everything and more I could have wished for and survived every form of abuse I hurled at it. When it finally expired after being dropped into a glass of Scotch (hint, do not balance your mobile on a glass while carrying from one room to another), I decided my best option was to keep with the same make, since I had owned my previous phone for well over three years a new one would be better, right? Sigh. First thing I looked for was a decent size pad, my ...  Read the complete review

I never initially set out to get a new mobile phone as I rather liked the one I already had. The problem was that we wanted to get a new television (sounds confusing I know bare with me) one of my friends had told me about a deal at the carphone warehouse where if you sign up to a two year contract at £25.00 a month not only do you get the phone and the minutes but you get a 32 inch HD flat screen television for free! I thought this deal was too good to be true, but I got on the internet looking at the carphone warehouse website and was all in fact true. After ordering it in an exited daze, I didn't spend much time looking over the details for the ...  Read the complete review

The Samsung C3050 is a good cheap and simple, yet still quite stylish mobile phone. At only £30 you can't really be expecting a lot from this mobile phone. But what you do get is well worth the money. It has a camera which can take photos and also be used for video recording. The camera isn't anything special, with a resolution of 120 by 168, and the images are quite blurry, so is no replacement for a digital camera, but your not going to find a really good camera phone for the same price. The screen is an LCD display which is clear and displays the graphics on the phone well. With a size of 2" it is a good size and can display ...  Read the complete review
