CNET Asia Review

Very good

7

out of 10

The good: Small, stylish design; leather case doubles as additional battery pack; 2-megapixel camera; Bluetooth; impressive battery life when used with battery pack.

The bad: Odd keypad layout requires acclimation; expansion card slot behind battery.

The bottom line: The Samsung SGH-P310 isn't very exciting as an upgrade model but it does have a decent feature set and a mysterious appeal for a simple phone.

Perfection of style and menu

Feb 2, 2007

Rating: 10 out of 10 (Perfect)
Pros: Modern, simple, Scandinavian style. Keypad is very precise. Leather case looks really luxurious.
Cons: A little bit confusing menu and a bit pricy
Opinion:
Since i was buying this phone for calling and SMS purposes the camera was not an issue for me because i have digital camera for this. Everyone who sees this telephone reacts "Wow". The brilliant idea was to mount an extra battery to the leather case and extend battery life twice. My previous phone was LG Chocolate which was a crime to humanity and after two months i had to change it because sensoric keys were nessy and menu rather slow but P310 sensoric keys are not so sensitive and working with it makes no problem. In general, if you want to have a phone which outstands in terms of design and benefit from the battery lifetime this telephone is perfect for you.

 

Cool and Sleek

Rating: 9 out of 10 (Spectacular)
Pros: You'll hardly see anyone using a same phone as you.
Cons: External battery on the leather case is rather heavy.
Opinion:
I bought it from starhub shop when it first launch 3 weeks back. It comes with a almost any functions you can find in any phones, except wifi. But with its size, weight and 'slimness'(without the leather case), you'll be surprise that you dun even feel it when you put it into your pocket. Battery strength is surprisingly long with external battery attached. It goes as far as 7 days. No other phone (Nokia, motorola, Sony ericsson) I used had done this...
