The Samsung E1170 is as basic a mobile phone as you can probably get these days. When my dearly departed old Sony Ericcson (itself a hand-me-down from my husband) I was not a happy bunny. I do not really have much interest in mobiles, seeing them as a necessity rather than a useful tool. I do not really use it an awful lot and as such only have a PAYG agreement and a Blackberry which is supplied by my work for emails and other work related bumpf. I also wanted a phone which did not cost a lot. Having had £9 in my Orange Phone fund, I toddled along to my local Orange store to make this purchase. I thought that it looked surprisingly sturdy for such a ... Read the complete review

I am the clumsiest man in the world when it comes to mobile phones and this is not helped by my natural reaction to throw and try and catch the thing. I constantly drop them and destroy them. This is why I have gone so many of the cheaper varieties of phones. The Samsung E1170 was another of these cheap phones and it only cost me ten pounds. What the mobile essential had to offer was phone calls and texts. This was supported by a staggering 600 minute talk time and 648 hour stand by time. I am actual amazed at how good the battery was. I would use my mobile constantly for up to 3 days without it even being pushed for a re charge. The phone was rather ... Read the complete review

INTRO - HOW WE MET.... This phone was bought during a short notice emergency (involing dropping my former phone during a cross country hike that went wrong when we were stampeded by cows. The old phone remains lost, presumed face down in a cow pat somewhere.) and on a tight budget. Due to my job at the time, I needed a new, easy to use phone the next day, so I popped down to argos and ordered the cheapest one they had. This phone was it.... MY EXPERIENCE AND THE GOODS/BADS It ticked the boxes I urgently needed at the time: cheap, able to send texts and make phone calls. As I soon found out however - that's pretty much all this phone is capable ... Read the complete review

This mobile phone is fine if you intend to only use it for calls/texts. It comes with a 2 year manufacturer's warranty, and feels pretty solid in the hand, suggesting it will last that long. Call quality is good, and texts are fine too. There is only Super Jewel Quest on the games, and there is no camera, but there are alarms, timers, memos etc. It also has a 'fake call' feature, if you want to get out of a tricky situation! The torch light isn't the best, and screen isn't the easiest to read in the sun. I also think that some of the automatically installed short-cuts are a little annoying as I keep on managing to call my recent contacts - I can't switch some of these ... Read the complete review

The samsung gt e1170 is a good basic phone that is durable, I have been using it for the past 3 years and it is still fully functioning, the battery life is long which is useful for people who like to call for long/businessmen. On the other hand the phone is slow, hard to type/text and has a small screen. The phone also does not have apps as it is very old and it is quite large and heavy. I used this phone for secondary use and it served its purpose( to phone people when my primary phone battery died). The phone does not have many functions either, just the basic calculator and so on. This however makes the phone very easy to work with. The fact that the ... Read the complete review
