Phone Review - My New Phone S3350

On Saturday, i finally bought a new cellphone- The Samsung Chat 335, also known as GT3350, or S3350.
I had enquired on the web for the phone's review , so i decided to buy this new phone for myself.

When i unpacked the phone box,i found the shining black handset which looked quite like the blackberry.I removed the backpanel, inserted my vodafone sim,and switched it on. I was greeted by the Samsung logo, followed by a "How are you today" message.

I tried the media player,and the perfomance was quite good. Infact, it was as good as my old Nokia Xpressmusic handset.

The user interface is good. Customisation to it can be done to a very large extent.

The Full qwerty keypad is brilliant, infact better than some of the Blackberry's out there. After using it, using a friend's Blackberry curve seemed a bit difficult.

The Wi-Fi has loads of customisation options. It gives users the ability to use proxies and ports like corporate networking features a walk in the park. This is a feature that many of the expensive handsets out there. Handsets, such as Nokia's X6, or Sony Ericsson's Xperia X8 don't have.

The phone's good. The accessories which came bundled are just ordinary. Samsung's PC Suite Kies seemed troublesome when i installed it. Although i haven't been able to figure out how to get it working, i do hope Samsung improves it, by building Kies on the Java platform instead of the dot net framework.

For around INR5500-6000, its a nice option to buy. I'd give it 4.5 out of 5.

Hope you found it the same as i did. Comments/Suggestions are welcomed
