Samsung SGH-X475 User Reviews

The Samsung SGH x475, new for T-Mobile, is a phone that gets the job done. If you don't need a camera (I have a 7mgpx digital Pentax) and you just want a phone that has optimum reception and clarity, this is it. I previously owned a Motorola V300 and a Nokia 6010, so I'll be comparing it to those phones. The phone case is small, lightweight and very attractive. The screen is beautiful and the software is great, and has many clever improvements over Motorola's software. Sound quality of the earpiece and mouthpiece are outstanding, as clear and crisp as a Nokia or better. The voice transmission on my V300 was a muffled mess, and my friends constantly complained that they couldn't understand me. However, the sound quality of the music tones on the Samsung is only so-so, not as good as the Motorola, but not as bad as Nokia. You don't have true polyphonic sound like the high-end phones. The phone is capable of downloading games but T-Mobile does not support games for this model--another disappointment. But what this phone does best is function as a phone. It gets strong signals and holds them, and the reception and transmission of voice is outstanding.

This phone is classy however, being a male it seems very feminine. The bubbles when you call someone, and the color? Wtf were you all thinking? As well, when covers come out, hopefully they do, you are forced to buy a new battery. That is by far the worst physical problem with this phone. How are you going to make money selling covers when you can't change the back?
