Reasons why I love this Samsung t349 cell phone:
1) Easy to use and type on partial QWERTY keyboard.
2) Easy to set up several email accounts.
3) Wonderful music player and I quickly set up several playlists.
4) Three alarms!
5) Very bright and easy to read screen. Easy to read texts and very easy to read a web page.
6) Very full featured phone that I found super easy to learn, I was totally up and running with this phone in under one hour without even opening the manual!
7) Phone is very well made,solid and is quite attractive.
8) I highly recommend this phone. The only thing that I find lacking is an FM radio feature.

This phone is a great buy because it has a micro sd card slot so you have save pictures, videos, music on it, up to 4 gigabytes. It comes with a good keyboard, the same kind as the one on the Blackberry Pearl. Has a large screen good size button and looks. Activate it with the prepaid Sidekick plan and pay 1 dollar a day for unlimited text / internet and 15 cents per minute. Good for texters and the phone can take many hits and falls. Has a music player.

Great Little Phone

This phone was easy to set up and get the service up. Calls were nice and clear. I like the hardware design of the phone although the yellow wasn't so pleasing to my eyes. The menus were laid out nice and simple to read and understand. Setting up contacts was easy enough and using the features of the phone was no hard task. Camera is this phones weak point but this is a fairly cheap phone to begin with as I only paid around $50 bucks for so can't really complain there. The keys on the face were space enough for me to easily type them out so that was a plus there also.

Wow this caught my eye. I thought it would cost a bunch! Then I saw the price and the features it was love at first sight. It's great to keep stuff organized and great for staying connected. However it's also great at entertaining you with the mp3 player and the video/camera. Not to mention it has 2 games!
Like any phone it's hard to get around but you'll get used to it.
Overall this phone is great, I could compare it to smartphone and it'll still win.

Call quality is great! Features are really useful and easy to use. But for some reason the battery drains way too fast when I'm using it!

like:
battery life, nice screen, video+audio+camera, and seeming good quality (so far)
half-QWERTY is pretty good
hate:
usability and lack of some nice little features even my cheapest nokia has
examples: no voice-activated calling; cannot customize the 4 arrow keys to open specific menu -- eg, to open Alarm, you always have to go through exact (many) steps; etc.

Nice little phone

I bought this phone because it was priced right, I really like its colors, and it pretty much has all the features that I was looking for. I have gotten used to the condensed qwerty keyboard, but since I text all the time, I would go for the full qwerty next time. But, the condensed qwerty is better than a regular phone keypad, in my opinion.

In general, nice phone...key board lock from factory is inconvenient...battery life is average...some nice and useful tools...ringtones O.K. My 8 year old, the next Bill Gates, kind of likes it...but not as much as my last Razor! You decide...I like it.

Did not like the camera function

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
This would have been a great phone had it not been for the camera. When you take a photo, the photo is not saved on the SD card. The phone wants to send the photo to Web2go at .30 a pop. To save it to the memory card is painful. I returned the phone because of this dumb camera feature.
I did like the keyboard for texting. It's very much like my blackberry 8110.

This is a cute phone but not worth the money!

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
This phone is not a great phone for the price. Its kind of difficult to send a text messages to figure out which keys do what and how to turn the auto word typing thing off. I read other reviews about this phone with the battery but I have had no problem i talk on it and everything and it seems to last me about 2½ - 3 days...

this phone is cute. it takes a while to get used to the keypad setup, but when you recieve a picture or a forward, you have to retrieve it then press view - exit out - and go back in to see your message. ridiculous!!

T-Mobile is a no go

T-Mobile is way too expensive for a prepaid phone. They make them so overpriced! Although this phone is a very good phone, you can get a good phone for a cheaper plan. That's why I switched to Straight Talk. Cheap plans and cheap phones. I am so happy now and I am saving so much money.
