Guide Review - Samsung e335 Review

The Samsung e335 is a basic cell phone with an amazingly small size and weight. It feels almost like an egg in your hands. And despite that small size, I must say I really enjoyed the very functional keypad and design. But there were also some annoyances: menus were not super efficient (not all of them were numbered for faster selection) and the software seems unable to cope with my fast text entry. When pressing 9 four times to get a "z" I would get a "9", just as if I had pressed 5 times, yet I double-checked many times to make sure I was right. I also hated that, to activate the speakerphone, I had to press one key plus a confirmation. But these are small annoyances that should not prevent you to buy a phone. However, I found that in various occasions, despite having 5 bars of signal calls would be choppy at times, but not always.
