A one-stop buy. If you dont need MP3 player and gaming, this phone is it. Slim and very nice dsign. Was in a dark room the other day without lights, used the phone as lamp, the display is realy bright. Unfortunaltly this phone uses the standard Samsung menu systems, where a simple task like reading and deleting an SMS message involves the use of most buttons and menues in the phone. This menu system is about the worst on the market, however since this phone dosnt have all the complex settings and options like higher end models, its not too pronounced on the C170, and an acceptabel draw down compared with the slim and light phone you get. SAMSUNG - MAKE A NEW MENU SYSTEM FOR YOUR PHONES ! Positive: Slim, light, nice design and good build quality Very bright display, can be used as a lamp ;-) No bullshit easy to use Very good speaker quality Negative No cradle, ( why is the plug placed on the SIDE of the phone ? ) Character for showing time in the calendar wallpaper is very small Alerts menues takes a bit too long to close Time from unlock of keypad till operational is a bit too long Using the standard samsung menu systems, which are about the worst on the market Baught this C170 two weeks ago.
