Advantages: light, reliable, easy to use, cheap

Disadvantages: the lack of features in todays market

I have owned the Samsung D900 for over two year now and have yet to report a problem. With two opportunities to upgrade, I have not been able to, given my attachment to the simple and highly convenient phone. The modern phones such as the iphone and Nokia's N-range, with all of their 'add-ons' and touch screens seem to blow over my head, and I still prefer to stick to the easy to use Samsung D900.

The samsung D900, as listed below, has all the features such as a camara, mp3 player, SMS, bluetooth, etc, which are essential to to a mobile, and all the features are extremely easy to put into action!

The phone other extremely saleable feature is that it seems to be indestructible! I have dropped it numerous times, let it slip into a swimming pool, thrown it against a wall, and it has yet to bear a scratch..

Aesthetically I also find it very pleasing, with quite a standard samsung look. As well as this, I believe it is still the world's slimmest slide phone, so you hardly feel it in your trousers!

If you are looking to buy yourself a very cheap, reliable phone, the D900 is ideal. You can pick it up for around £20 from ebay, which is much better than the hundreds you would pay for an extravagent phone now!
