User Review for Samsung SGH-E590
Great value-for-money
Nov 18, 2008Rating: 10 out of 10 (Perfect)
Pros: Shares the same or even greater functions than most mid-end phones
Cons: None!
Opinion:
Frankly, when I saw this phone at the mall, I didn't really expect it to be loaded on the features department. I saw this phone at a shop window and thought it would make a perfect "secondary phone" for my other line. It looked great, somehow different than its stablemates. Oddly appealing. So I took a closer look at it and to my surprise, it had a 3.0MP auto focus camera!!! I thought camera phones with that resolution only came standard with higher-priced products from other manufacturers!
Ok, so I was surprised about the camera, so imagine how surprised I was to know that it was also expandable in terms of memory, had bluetooth (A2DP!) and a host of other surprising features!
Bottom line:
This phone rocks! I think it does well for what it's made to do. Moreover, I think this phone is meant to "compliment" not compete with phones ABOVE its price range. It's my first Samsung phone and I'm really happy with it. It's light, small, solidly built and looks deceivingly simple (that's a good thing, by the way). Add all that to a great feature set and you're left with a phone that will keep you satisfied for quite some time.
