User Review for Samsung SGH-i550W
became a mere good phone
May 6, 2009Rating: 6 out of 10 (Good)
Pros: works well
Cons: my god, battery sucks how dare they launch it
Opinion:
i dont use gps, occasionally use camera so am not bothered if these are merely good. the phone works well, no sluggishness and i like the contact management, i think its superb coz of its flexibility - for example - you can set different default numbers for making a call, sms, etc.
while the track-ball isnt the best (sometime frustrating when scrolling long up or down), it is the battery life that surely makes it a deal breaker, wish i'd known before i bought it. how dare they ?
- swithced off 3g
- total call minutes (outgoing + incoming) 45-60 mins/day
- one SMS Chat open all the time for texting about 50 sms sent/day
- and the battery lasts only 10 hrs after fully charged.... so by 7 or 8pm i'm out of contact.....
i should get my money back...
