Samsung C300 (2007)

Excellent – The semi automatic slide is cool. Polyphonic tones sound great. The large 1.77 Inch screen is just right for rightful viewing of pictures and messages. Although I'm hoping not make use of it someday, I'm still glad that this phone has a "uTrack feature" which will aid in tracking down this unit just in case it gets lost. Last but not least, the "auto time setting feature" has proven to be very useful everytime I travel from state to state, and even to other countries. Attractive matt and glossy finish

OK – I like it but if I used SMS a lot I would be very angry. Luckily it's no big deal for me. Economical. Neat and keypad is large enough to use. Good battery life and a fast charge. Phone side is easy to use. After 6 months of ownership I still can't send an SMS message, the instructions are so poor. It's OK until you want a word not in the dictionary, then it won't give you viable alternatives or let you spell what you want. Also, it only gives a full stop if you want punctuation.

The highlight colour on the screen isn't different enough for bright ambient light making it difficult to easily read the menu item selected.
