Having clung to my Motorola V300 for what seems an eternity, I was excited when my partner informed me that we were both having new phones (usually this means that I have her phone, while SHE gets a new phone). Nevertheless I spent a while looking for a phone that would (a) not be too expensive, (b) have enough features to make it worthwhile and (c) allow me to stay with T-Mobile (as I like my 3p texts). Having found the Samsung E590 I was quietly excited. For under £40 this phone had loads of features, and many more, that I was after. The phone itself is tiny and, believe me, I have small hands. It is extremely compact and sits easily in my pocket ...  Read the complete review

I'm not much of a phone nut, and I'm happy to have my phone just for calls and texts - but I do like an easy to use camera, for those fun little shots you'd otherwise miss. I saw the Samsung SGH-E590 on the Carphone Warehouse website for £30 back in 2007, with £15 cashback via the Quidco website. So I got it for £15 and three years on it's still going strong!

This phone is simple yet effective - it does a job plain and simple. If you want a phone that is easy to text on, can hold plenty of messages and names/numbers without having all the rubbish you get on Sony Ericssons or the rubbish clunky software you get on LG's and Nokia's these days then definitely get this phone! I got it on an Orange contract for free, in sleek black, and even having dropped it more than once on the pavement it still looks bloody good! The camera is good but not great, but then again I have a camera for taking pics so that doesn't really bother me. The best thing about it is that it is tiny, you can put in the ...  Read the complete review

After years of positive experience using Samsung phones I was not at all disappointed by this phone. The main appeal lies in the phones compactness and ease of use, although its size may hinder those with larger fingers, as the keys are quite small. The main menu is well laid out and easy to scroll through, changeable shortcut keys make it even quicker. The camera and music player are both adequate for the phones value and size but a camera flash would be useful. The phone has all the basic but useful features like FM radio, alarm, calendar, world clock, converter, calculator, timer and stopwatch and also has two games (Forgotten Warrior and Cannonball) with the option ..  Read the complete review
