Advantages: Looks nice

Disadvantages: Not at all practical - texting is a time consuming nightmare

I had trawled round countless phone store, flicked through catalogues, and roamed the web, searching for the perfect new phone. Nothing had tempted me enough to want to sign an 18 month contract until I saw the Samsung SGH-P520 being sold by phones4u. It looked and sounded so perfect and I purchased it online without checking it out instore.

When it finally arrived, it's appearance more than lived up to my expectations. However, I was hugely disappointed upon turning it on. The touch screen was immediately annoying and it was difficult to get the phone to recognise which buttons I pressed. I am a lady with very small fingers, but I can only imagine the trouble a man would have in completing such a normally simple task as sending a text message. The phone makes things hugely complicated and time consuming.

If you use your phone solely for making calls, you may not mind using this but you would probably still get fed up with it.
Samsung and Armani have nothing to smile about with this model. I can't wait until my contract finishes so I can ditch this awful phone! What a let down!
