Samsung B300 - User Reviews

  • + Cheap + Chic design + Small size, yet has big buttons + Loud and shouty telephone speaker + LOUD loudspeaker + Web browser works - to an extent - and even lets me download MIDI, GIF and JPEG files + Sensitive FM radio with supplied headset - walking along Beach Road in southern Singapore, I could pick up FM radio stations tens of kilometres away from Johor in Malaysia to the north and Batam Island in Indonesia to the south - Proprietary connection port for the power supply unit and stereo headset. In other words, don't lose them. - Web browser is not very capable obviously - You cannot type certain punctuation marks in SMS! - Plastic coating for the keypad and the two washers below the keypad that soften the impact of the closing mechanism can melt in heat higher than 35°C!

  • how can i use the java in the fone

  • i loved using b300. its cute wit enough features 4 coll students. and it can be handled rougher as u can. bcas its very strong as my love to it.

  • itz amazing cell

  • like the phone but how do i remove the battery cover !!!......???

  • The following is my personal opinion. Thought I'd share it. Please don't reply. Amazing basic phone. It has nothing that you don't use. Bought it today for AUD$50. GOODS: Speakers are the best i've experienced in any phone. Max the volume in speaker mode and sound is still comparable to a good FM radio. Good battery life. Lightweight. Easy to use keys. Has option for MMS but not sure how good it works compared to its low res display. Does not work with 3mobile in Australia. The only drawback for the phone is the weird phonebook navigation. Might take a while getting used to. Over all, one of the best mobile phones in the price group.

  • no

  • $88 singapore dollar... simple question... MMS really available?? the memory only 2mb? PLEASE ANSWER FOR THOSE WHO OWN.. if u dont own it, dont tell me the answer as I dont believe in this website information... they always wrong...

  • Can i listen to the radio on the loudspeaker without plugin the earphone?

  • I bought this phone two weeks ago. It is a good basic phone allthough the small screen hasn't got a good resolution. The manual is only a quick reference guide and doesn't even mention that the default security password is 00000000.

  • does the USB support charging, sending sms from PC ?

  • This phone has a very good battery life.

  • Can it play ur mp3 songs?

  • i have this phone its basic easy to operate and it does everything that i need it to do i would strongly reccommend it

  • I might buy this phone cause it's cheap.

  • Good to hear. I might buy this.

  • Hi can this phone do roaming?

  • I've had this phone for about a week.I am very pleased of the loudness of the radio in handsfree mode.For a cheap phone it has a very powerfull loudspeaker !

  • Great Little Phone compact size...

  • yeah u are all rights and u know,there is also red color on that,its simlock but its very nice coz i just buy it worth 15 euro and its brand new...

  • Actually there is no card slot.

  • There is no card slot!!!

  • according to the specifications it says there's usb and that it's a mp3 player which is not true. there is no USB connection and it's definitely not an MP3 player, but i wish it was though!

  • where is slot card and usb ??? پس کو مموری و یئ اس بی خالی بستن بد جوری

  • Where is the card slot?????

  • its the mistake of the site for its specifications were not matched with the right specifications..but its helpful for most people for this site really gives us more upd

  • Guys,this phone have no card slot!!!

  • this is a neat looking basic phone. no mp3, no video, no camera, no usb, no sd card, no hassle, no problem. just make that call or punch in that text and move ahead. the ringtones aren't annoying or super-loud, sound quality is pretty much very good, and text speed is quite decent. practical, decent, worth it.

  • This is a cheap, rather simple phone. I bought it as a replacement phone and I've been using it for a month. Without any real basis for comparison, I'd say this is decent for the price range ... anything over 50 euros for Samsung B300 is robbery though.

  • yara kis tarh connect hota hy usb prot par???

  • i had to make this comment because there in the specifications is writen that b3oo is having a memory card slot that is not true because i,m having shop for mobiles phone and this type of samsung does not have a memory card slot so gsm be carefull for next time

  • how to download tones & wallpapers in b300

  • How many sms can be store in this phone?

  • Pros: Small Light Elegant look Cons: Horrible Speaker. Text response while typing SMS is real slow. No memory card slot.

  • there is no memory card!!!!!!!!!!

  • Totally useless phone. No doubt the style is good and thats the only good thing about the phone,rest all is crap. Sold that phone today with the huge loss as this phone doesnt have a resale at all. The messaging was quite slow. It laggs while writing an sms. Radio cant be minimized. It stops when you try to run it in background.

  • good mobile

  • I have bought Samsung B300 yesterday(28-09-2008) from Singapore plaza Rawalpindi Pakistan.Its price is 4500 Rs and it is available in dark green colour. No doubt the celphone looks stylish but it is not user freindly at all. I am a heavy texter and sending an sms is very lenghty and difficult process in samsung. I am using samaung for the 1st time,previously I was using Nokias and Sony Ericssons. Can anyone please tell me how to go to new line while writing SMS? Secondly is there anyway to minimize its radio. Whenever I minimize the radio,it stops. You cannot write a text message or do some other thing like using the calculator while listening to the radio. It works only when it is shown on the screen. As soon as you hide it,it stops working. Waiting for your replies. Thanks

  • its really a very sweet mob but .....oly 1 thin there is no memory card to insert !!!!

  • gr8 foe at that prise.... just Rs 2600/- and look at the sound and fm quality man.... daam gud..... gr88 fone. i liked it./..

  • How is the user interface of Samsung B300. Is it slow or fast? Specially tell me about writing and sending a msg. Is that process fast or slow? I am a heavy texter.

  • I got this phone 4 my dad. Its good as he just needs it 2 make calls. well, the phone has no mp3 player, neither it holds a memory card slot...???

  • I have Samsung B300. And its gr8 (atleast for those who believe in sense and simplicity). Good exterior, easy-2-use keypad, manageable phone software. Its the phone for those who are looking for style and simple mobile phone functions. It has mobile tracker, browser, games, mms, ems, voice memo, currency xchg, radio and other basic network-supported functions. I am still exploring it and its gr8! I have a few questions though: > gsmarena.com mentions that it has a card slot and supports a memory card. I couldn't find it in my phone. Where is it? > Which data cable and PC software will support this phone? > Some post below, it is mentioned that this phone has radio recording. I couldn't do that either. How do we do recording? Please reply and help. Overall: Good phone :)

  • it is available in India from today onwards!!

  • i think its a good idea... not everyone wants a camera on there phone and infa red and blue tooth, most people never use that stuff anyway!

  • im guessing samsung is using this phone to target lower end users, mainly using a mobile to recieve and make calls (come to think of it thats what mobiles are really meant to do lolz) im neutral to samsung but im guessing they know wt their doing

  • wow...it doesnt even have a camera...thats gay

  • whait a miniute, it's relased in july 2008 and it sucks? I thought that new phones are good phones?

  • yes u can connect with usb ,battery life is upto 5.30 hrs

  • hello guys.. i am about to buy this fone.. i already have N95 but i would like to go back for simplicity.. i just have 1 question.. Can u connect the fone with usb and add some pics or ringtones? and what about the battary ?

  • Wap browser is not available as described in details.........i dont know wats that............

  • It will cost between 40 and 50 Euros

  • nice design

  • best thing in this phone is it has fm recording but its not mention very nice and good bettrey life

  • Why it doesn't show any video preview or more picture about this phone! From the first look you can see to much...

  • Another very lovely C170 and/or X520 in the clamshell form-factor. Salivating over the pictures already, I am. When would it be made available in the Indian market? And with what price-tag? Any idea? Anybody?

  • Good Design

  • This phone is the best phone in the wurld
