Samsung t239 Prepaid Phone, Charcoal (T-Mobile)

I'm looking at the Samsung T239 manual right now (pg. 60) and it certainly DOES vibrate. The other reviewer is referring only to the alarm. And while dedicated web and mail keys may seem unnecessary on a prepaid phone, where you wouldn't expect a lot of Internet access, this phone is also used with other types of T-Mobile plans.

One other thing. The product description has an error. While text messages on T-Moble's monthly plans are $0.20 to send and receive, on the prepaid plans they are $.10 to send and $.05 to receive. Go figure.

It's better and has more future then the older model sidekicks *The only smart phone I've ever owned* Battery life is great, looks good, plays games, you could use your own music for ringtones *Take that Sidekick* camera is great *and it could Zoom unlike another phone I used* You could change the plan on this phone at any time, free web browser *only could look at some random stuff, sports, and news* the list goes on and on... GREAT PRE-PAID PHONE!!

I had bought this phone a few months ago to replace my old nokia phone. I wasn't looking for something extravagant, just something basic. This phone pretty much suited my needs.

Video and camera are all pretty much standard; nothing over the top. Some of the photos I shot came out a bit fuzzy but as I mentioned, I only wanted a basic phone. I didn't mind if the photos were not crystal-clear. However, the photos were not so blurry where you couldn't make out what was in the photo.

Volume is my only complaint I have about this phone. If I'm in a very noisy place, a restaurant, city, or wherever, and I'm trying to listen to someone, even when I have the volume on the highest setting, sometimes it's still very hard to hear what the other person says. This gets very frustrating.

All in all, I'm content with this samsung phone. People who are looking for a phone with a lot of extra features that some of the newer phones come with will not find much with this phone. Nevertheless, if you're looking for only a basic phone, this one will do the trick.

I wanted a phone--not an alarm clock or a camera or anything fancy--just a phone and it certainly fits the bill. It is easy to use, has a long battery life, and is easily one of the best cell phones I have ever purchased. Plus, the T-Mobile prepaid cell phone plan is saving me a fortune. I should have done this years ago.

This phone is actually decent to be inexpensive. The battery life is long. I think I just charged it once a week and that was it.

I have dropped it countless times and it has been alright. What makes it nice is that it is still kinda in style with the slider thing going on.

The only thing that I found sort of puzzling was the alarm system. With the older Samsung I had onced owned, I was able to set my alarm and actually turn off the phone. It would then turn itself on when the alarm would go off. That was really cool because I wasn't wasting the battery power while I slept. But with the SGH-T239, the feature for self alarm startup is not present. So when I set the alarm the phone has to be on all night wasting my battery life. Good thing it holds a good charge. I give it 3 stars for it's appearance, solid capabilities, and price.
