Samsung T609 Review

after signing up with tmobile and getting the sidekick II, it was too bulky so i opted for this phone instead. ever since, people have complimented me on this phone because of the crisp display screen and quality of it. the girls tend to compliment me more because of the color, and if you’re a girl, you know that looks mean a lot. it’s not plain white, it’s actually a pearl color, and you do NOT see this color phone very often at all. in fact, that’s yet another reason to have this phone: NO ONE KNOWS IT’S OUT! when i got this phone 2 months ago, no one had ever seen it! but i’ve actually gotten a couple of people to buy the t609 because they saw that i liked it so much! overall, this is an awesome phone!

I just got this yesterday and so far I am glad for the purchase. The only downside to it, the reason its not a 10/10 is the earpiece volume. It only goes up to 5. I think it should go up higher when you’re listening to someone. I haven’t tested it in a loud environment but that was the only disappointing factor to it

I like the phone but the battery does not last at all and I feel like I have to charge it everyother day and that isn’t right. What is up with that?

I have had this phone for about a week. I REALLY like the look and design. I am thinking about returning it because I have an echo for all my calls. Asked at the store and they said common with Samsung phones but should go away after about 3 months. Not sure I want to take the chance. I really like the phone so undecided if I’m going to keep it and hope the echo improves. Have had a couple of calls dropped, but not sure if my phone or the person I was talking to. Will decide in the next week if I’m keeping it or not.

Out of all the phones available I always seem to end up with a Samsung. I have never had a Samsung phone break or give me any problems; cant say that about Motorola.Samsung phones are stylish and the menus are usually pretty easy to get to know. You can drop them over and over again and they just keep going.

I’ve had a lot of problems on my phone with sending picture messages. So I sent it back in and I got it swapped. And to my surprise GUESS WHAT! This phone does it too. With the whole “not enabled for MMS service” crap.

Besides picture messages though I really like it.

I have had that phone for about a year… I have recently switched to a better one but. I really don’t like this phone. Trying to send or receive a picture message is horrible.

After my RAZR died on me, I had to get a cheap replacement ’til it was time to re-subscribe, and I ended up with this one. While there are problems with the photo sending, as stated in another review, that’s the only problem inside. The only one outside is that it looks like a toy and has a black and white external screen, and I would’ve liked the internal screen to be bigger (of course I was used to the RAZR’s huge internal screen). Overall, this is a good phone if you don’t mind an average camera, don’t send a lot of photo messages, and have no problem with it looking like Mattel makes it.
