Samsung SCH-A630 User Reviews

Although this phone lacks all those fancy features you get in a $250 phone, I too got this for free. This phone is practically unbreakable; I left it in a puddle during a thunderstorm and it still works perfectly!(but that was pretty stupid)

Great phone... no unnessary crap such as built in camera. For pics I use a real digital Olympus Camera! Why waste money on cameras in phones... otherwise I would want a cell phone built into my digital camera.

i have horrible signal strength what do i need to do fix the problem when i talk on the phone it cut out really bad can you please help me im in desperate need

Well aren't you all a bunch of whiney *Expletive Deleted*. First of all, you CAN downlowd ringtones. Go to VText.com and check'em out. Plenty of fine ringtones there. Sound quality is fine. Not alot of extra features, but I didn't pay $250 bucks for a phone, I got it free with a service plan. And I got what I paid for. A phone, that looks great, small and sleek, has plenty of talk time, and get this.... can call people on. Which is kind of the point. If you want an emailing, websurfing, picture taking, movie watching phone, undo the vice grips on your wallet and fork over some dough. Otherwise, be happy with a perfectly fine phone.

I just bought this phone today, looked for a decent ringtone, couldn't find one so i found the downloading site. this text message did not work all i got in my in box was a big square with an X through it. Can anyone tell me what to do with it?

Look, its the cheapest phone Verizon offers, and for the worst phone they have, its very sleek and it makes calls. Thats really all anyone needs a phone for. TO MAKE CALLS.

I don't really see why people say this phone sucks... because it dosen't! You can download ringtones and wallpapers, you just have to use the web browser on the phone. I'm sure if you want them that bad, you would pay the extra dollar or so. Totally customiseable, you just have to not be lazy and look around!!! :P
I find it has good reception, is a good size, its definately cute :) Screen is awesome, sound is awesome, menu is easy to read... much better than my old Audiovox! :)
The only thing I really found wrong with the phone is the battery life... you just have to make sure you plug it in every night.
I think its a great phone for people that want to make and take calls. Cheap, and it works well!

My rating - 8.5/10

This phone is ok. There is really not a lot to do on it but that is ok. I saw some of the other reviews and there said u cant download ringtones fot it. If you go to vtext.com you can download ringtones.

This phone is good if you don't need lots of features (believe it or not, some people dont need all that stuff!) The digital clock/world clock backgrounds are good (no lame animals, etc.) YES, there are downloadable ringtones, but you have to get them through vtext.com and *not* getitnow. Good selection of good quality ringtones, US 99c each, u can preview them thru mp3 too. No downloadable games (none come with the phone!)... not sure about wallpapers though.

I just got this thing half an hour ago, so I'm reviewing the customizability and nothing else.
This phone is stupid. All of the text is huge. The ringtones are all HORRIBLE. On most phones there's one or two that don't suck; not so here. The booklet says there's a way to download ringtones; it doesnt say how. Certainly not from my computer cause the only socket in the phone is for the charger.
Furthermore, I'm very displeased at the prospect of being faced with fuzzy animals or asinine sports pictures or candles and bubbles every time I open the phone.

omg! i got this phone today as an offer...no wonder it was an offer, IT SUCKS!! the guy told me u could donload ringtones and ringbacks...i hope there's a way to fix this problem
i wish i could've known of this before!

this sucks you can't download any ringtones on this phone yall need to fix this it sucks i want ringtones because the ringtones that are on it are not any good i want to be able to download some

Supposed to have 200hr standby and 3.3hr talk time. I have only had this phone 1 week and have used a total call lifetime of 2hr 04 min 39 seconds and have had to charge the phone 4-5 times.

It only charges for a couple hours and have to charge at least daily. Every time you really need the phone, the battery is almost dead.

I think that there should be some extras added to this phone. It Sucks not to be able to get ringtones or ANYTHING extra for this phone. Now, I too, am stuck with this phone for two years.

This phone has conducted accordingly as a random phone should, but you can't get ringtones, wallpapers, or anything safistacated. This phone has many disadvantages. I'm stuck with it for two years. It compact and reliable.

this phone is horrible. It does not have ring tones. You need to fix thisright away so that i can get ringtones on my phone . The phone looks godd and everything but it has nothing no games u cant download ringtones or wall papers FIX THIS!!

The Samsung SCH-a630 phone is supposed to sync with Outlook, but there is no sofware available. The cable that comes with the mobile office set available through Verizon wireless works, in that the software included regognizes that a phone is connected, but the software will not recognize the A630 as a compatable phone. Also, after many calls to Verizon customer service, to Samsung and then back to Verizon again, we could not get an answer from Verizon wireless as to when this software might become available other than "not this month." Otherwise, it seems to be a good basic phone and the coverage is much better than our old service.
