Samsung SGH-M100

No-one will ever complain that the ringers are not loud enough on this phone or that the vibrate alert is too soft! Sadly it lacks the escalating ringer that is so useful on other big brands. The earpiece volume goes up impressively loud but does distort a little at full blast. The screen is fantastically sharp and detailed. Despite its small physical size the number of tiny pixels squashed into the space make for a detailed - if eye-straining - experience. Unfortunately it is not so sophisticated as to adjust the spacing between the letters so that an “i” takes up as much space as an “m”. but, apart from looking less appealing, this is ...  Read the complete review

Wow! What a mobile phone! Not only has it got a built-in MP3 player but loads of amazing features that Nokia’s don’t have. Lets start with the MP3 player: A 32meg memory (that’s about 1 hours worth of MP3 music), random and repeat functions and music styling (disco, blues, arena, etc…) make the MP3 function as good as any other player.

I know it is not the only MP3 playing phone on the market but to my knowledge it is the cheapest. I found that the whole set up of the phone once it arrived was very straightforward and the MP3 transfer system is really simple to use if a little slow. USB here would have been nice. In fact this is one of my main problems with this phone, ...  Read the complete review

I've had mine for 1 and a half years, and I pretty happy. THOUGH, I have had the phone replaced TWICE! First at 6months and then again at 11 months. So I am hoping I am not going to have it replaced again. Don't let this put you off - it is a great little phone. The problems I was having with the phone were small glitches of some sort with the interface & memory. I had the phone replaced within 24hrs under the standard included 1 year guarantee (under virgin). It seems that most phones nowadays have problems anyways - Unfortunalty! It is a very light phone 3or4 oz, and I find it very duarable. If your looking for a phone to use all the lastest ringtones and ...  Read the complete review
