The Samsung e360s

This technical Samsung e360s review is computer-generated with this phone's specifications, it is in no way a hands-on review. It evaluates its pros and cons to help you make a sound decision.

The Good:

  1. Weight: The Samsung e360s has a smaller than average weight, which is usually perceived as an advantadge. (score: 12/20)
  2. Technology: The Samsung e360s is compatible with worldwide GSM frequencies which is convenient if you travel overseas frequently. (Roaming fees from your home carrier generally apply) (score: 7/7)
  3. Stand-by Time: 200 hours of stand-by time. It is good enough! (score: 16/20)
  4. Phone Book: It can store up to 1000 phone book entries, which is quite good! (score: 20/20)
  5. Speakerphone: It has a speakerphone, which will prove useful in a car or in other situations. (score: 10/10)
  6. Streaming TV: Streaming Video or TV. Streaming TV, provided your carrier offers it, allows you to watch real live TV on your cell phone. It involves additional fees but can help kill time in queues, doctor waiting rooms or many other situations. (score: 5/5)
  7. Wireless Data System: Bluetooth-enabled, which is an interesting plus. Bluetooth is not really necessary but may be handy if you want to use a wireless headset or transfer data to or from your (Bluetooth-enabled) laptop, for instance. (score: 7/7)

The Not-So-Good:

  1. Talk Time: A talk time of unknown minutes. Not quite sufficient for most users, in my opinion. (Find phones with more battery life) (score: 4/20)
  2. Camera: The VGA built-in camera is minimal. Useful, but you won't make artwork with it. (score: 3/10)

Overall Score: 84
