its an ok phone if you just want to but it for a grandparent or your child instead of buying them a friggin blackberry of a env touch... from my perspective i would reccomend this phone to anyone it has a great battery life and a ok camera its not the fanciest phone out there but it gets the job done, and it is so durable too! (just dont throw it when your mad)

Pros

good battery life
camera
internal/external screen

Cons

doesnt shoot video
no blutooth
no web(unless u have cricket, etc)
not a music player
freezes easily
and slows down when there is too much pics

 I expected much a phone with much better quality from the Samsung line.  The phone is light and most suited for those people first learning to use a cell phone.  There might as well not be a camera or outside display for all the good they do.  I used this phone for almost 9 months  and regreted every minute from the time of purchase.  Sometimes, trying to be economical doesn't pay off!

The outer display likes to adjust its contrast by itself.  Other times the back lighting for that screen will stay on and drain the battery unless you physically remove the battery while the phone is on for a hard reset.  Despite the volume indicator showing loudest possible settings, the volume is highly muted.  There is a long lag time in moving from one screen to another.  The texting functionality is atrocious!  The T9 does not recognize some of the most basic of words.  Every phone I have had previous to this have at least had the ability to learn and adapt the T9 to include more frequently keyed in words.  The alarm clock will shut itself off or mute the alarm tone.  The zoom function on the camera will not work.  Even correctly provisioned and set up by the network, the phone will send but not receive MMS.

One of the most useless pieces of so called modern technology.  Take my word for it people.  I spent two years of my life working warranty exchange for cell phones, so I've seen some lemons, but this phone almost takes the cake.  On the bright side, I would rather have this to a RAZR

Pros

lightweight, semi-durable

Cons

miserable functionality, poor camera, low sound quality

This phone is horrible! I have had to replace it due to a broken charging port 2 times. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY. there are much better phones that are much more durable and affordable. Replacement cost is upwars of 150 bucks and I wouldn't pay another dollar!

It needs more memory and a colorful front screen to it. But it good

8. Verizon Wireless Samsung SCH-U340 Prepaid

I have this phone for verizon prepaid. It is a good phone and its good for txting but it takes too long to go to the next character if i have to use the same button for two letters, I can txt really fast on it and its call quailty is good but it does not have that many features. It needs a color screen outside and bluetooth and mobile web and a music player and a micro sd card slot and mobile web to be perfect. I have to charge this phone every day and it needs better battery life. I like the phone so far and have had it about a month.

Pros

good for txting

Cons

none really

this phone is awefull!!!  it is so slow for texting. it has less than a 1.0 mega pizel camera. the ringtones that come with it are gay. the speaker phone is super quiet. the wallpapers are stupid. it cant record sound. it cant take video. it doesnt have mobile web. it takes 5 seconds to pull up the picture menu. for texting if you want to say   "hi"  you push 44...444 and the time it tekes the cursor to move to the next letter ...    is way to freaking long. its like 3 seconds. this phone is cheap and is bad. come on samsung. you can do better than that!

Pros

no way you can break this phone

Cons

speaker
ringtones
wallpapers
camers
no videos
cant record sound
no mobile web
super slow
