Samsung C120 - User Reviews

  • this is my first phone,and i use it until now about 10 years and now we are in 2016.still working good but for my prestige i want to change it and by another damn phone.

  • That was my 1st samsung handset. After buying this I sell out within week. V.bad experience.:-)

  • I have dropped (also in the toilet more than once) this phone, in my experience of more than 5 years of use, is like no other and it has always survived. The keyboard is quite fast compared to other cheap Samsungs of that time. Now it looks a bit old and the key OK is fading a bit, but it keeps going. Not bad for the priced I paid. All mobile phones must be resistant and enduring like this one.

  • Yes, I totally agree with you and that is why I am replacing this phone after about five years of use. The starting tone is hideous, the only way to remove that is by using vibration mode, but many times I forget! Samsung should hire musicians and aesthetes to test this things.

  • this is the worst phone in the world.i had a c120 but i don"t want to see him ever.

  • I'm sorry to say to you, Anonymous, that you are mistaking the class of this phone. C120 is "entry-level", low-cost or basic phone if you like, so it should ONLY feature calls and SMS, MABIE polyphonic ringtones and a color display. Some have FM radio. Anything above these features is "mid-range" (camera, mp3, bluetooth etc). I am a SE user, but I was looking for a cheap phone with good battery backup for my grandmother. SEs I've seen (year

  • I'm using this set for 2 years & facing some technical difficulties. It's network became weak, some keys don't work well, the main problem is that- it cannot read over 2pages sms, it shows blank sms. The receiver and speaker don't work well though I used it carefully as it's my dad's cell. But one thing have to say that the battery is good.

  • how about the signal...is it good in all network?

  • Tone 11 is the best

  • it is so sexy

  • Could anyone tell me how to lock and unlock the keypad for this phone. And are the ringtones really that bad?

  • bad signal, old and retarded software, even the calculator is hard to use, bad colors, sounds are also bad, phonebook s.cks, what can i say, is a great phone for the year 1945, nokia and sony ericsson rul_s!!!!!!!!

  • i really need to request for this phone how can i buy it..

  • There is another model of samsung phone similiar to this one only the screen is monochrome...any ideas guys?

  • great cheap basic phone. only thing is i cant get it to be totally silent.even in silent mode it still vibrates.

  • just bought one today. seems to be fine for the price. look is nice, small and handy, display is also good. except the ringtones. they could be of better quality.........

  • it's "nice" to see that some people qualify a phone as good or bad just by the size of the screen, camera quality and mp3 playability. You need to realise that there are phones designed for you kids, that use your phones as toys, and there are phones designed for people that use them for what they were intended in the first place: talking. I've got my 7Mp camera if i need to take a picture. I've got my Mp3 player if i need to listen to some music. This is just a phone, looks pretty nice, draws attention with its design, without being excessively flashy. The tones can be very useful when in a noisy place but can also be somewhat annoying, due to their volume. Battery lifetime is pretty good, and the sound quality is good too. Overall a simple phone for people who desire nothing more than just a phone at a very good price (15 euros at Orange Shop in my country).

  • Its a fluffing utter disgrace (i would use the real word but you would pull my comments) orange are robbing people for �19.99 for such an old relic and poor technology. No games no nothing and no free perfume. Muck thats all it is im gonna wipe my ... on it.

  • it's a good phone because it has a good battery and calendar, calculator and currency convertor. A phone doesn't have to have mp3s or camera to be good. it's a great phone for its category, not a rubbish suckers!

  • im very happy with my c120 even though i bought it 2nd hand. plse just help with one thing. all incoming calls just shows as "unknown" what do i hav 2 do to c the id of person calling

  • I have a problem with samsung c120 on it's keypad. some of it's key do not work properly.so will u please send me the solution with keypad diagram. thanks

  • Excellent, marvellous, fantastic ph....never ever came across such type of ph......pls beleive I lied.......

  • more like carephonebogbrush

  • I was told by the sales person in the carphone warehouse that this phone had 64 tone polyphonic, had mp3 and was a slider phone. I got the phone home and took it out the box (the sales person was very nice and sounded very genuine so i took his word as gospel. When I took it out first of all i found that it would not slide. The sounds were like an old Brick nokia and the display on my old philips savvy showed more detail. Dont listen to carphone warehouse they speak with fork tongue and will sell any old rubbish and tell you what you want to hear and once they have your money they wont give it back.

  • I found this set very simple and userfriendly in very low price range. Very beautiful in DESIGN.NIce battery timings. Best to use as a additional mobile ( without additional facility e.i camera,game,gprs,bluetooth etc etc ). ITs very simple and sleek. Zubair Ch. +92 0304-490-4838

  • This phone is the worst phone EVER made in the world no camra no music no mp3 This is so rubbish

  • Is this good enough for a tempory phone? Are the ring tones really that bad and does it have games?

  • worst device designed by humanity

  • Hi, Can you please let me know why is not accepting any ring tones from other handsets. the message is incompatible message.

  • Bought this phone two weeks ago, unlocked, for 28 euros at Staples. Great buy! Thin enough to be unnoticed when you're wearing a suit, this phone is definetly worth the money. The keyboard lighting has got to be the best I've ever seen (or ever owned, at least...) and the screen just ain't too bad. On the downside, the ringtones are just a bit too acute and loud (and annoying, too) and the screen light, whenever the keyboard is locked, just won't turn on, no matter which keys you press. It was a bit hard to find out which sequence unlocked the keyboard, but now I know it, this isn't a problem anymore. Fine phone, great for anyone who wants simplicity or for those who look for a fair secondary handset.

  • does anyone know if it has MMS function?cause on the specifications it says SMS,EMS.

  • I have this samsung several months now and I'm satified about it. Lately I bougt a SEj100i (who has the same features) for about the same price 50 EU. I can tell you, really, the SE is a joke compared to the samsung.

  • Does anyone know the factory setting for the sim pin. As I would like to set it to my own pin. Regards sparky.

  • Hello. Is it a posibility to install poliphonics on this model ?

  • A tip about the on off tone. put it on quiet mode. ie. hold down hash. then it only vibrates

  • Smart & flash phone only got it for 35 pounds (English pounds) highly recomended mobile.Well engeneered and style as well as desighn. Its coulour comes free with a Sim c. Best bought in England, as it is cheaper in English pounds.

  • A great phone for 60 EU. - Standard phone for calling and texting. - Fine color screen for this price. - Good quality. Strong body. I dropped it several times and it's still working. - It fell inro water and after 2 days drying in the sun it worked fine again. - No Nokia can tip on this quality.

  • Ordered online and much smaller than I imagined, nevertheless very compact. Only critisism I have is that the instructions are too basic. I cannot find out how to switch off the on/off sound and also how to lock the keypad when not in use. Any advice greatly received.

  • The phone is a nice one but i would like to sugesst that the phone should be a camera one because of its portability.And also it should be made to support polyphonic ringtones because its ringtones is quite annoying.

  • this phone deserves tobe discontinued as i have had numerous problems with it.

  • hi guys i brought n710 some days ago in pakistan.some how i had to open the covers and now its cover is not fixing with it properly can any body tell me that is its covers r available in the market or naot. regards ammar

  • nice phone but when you turn the phone on and off it is a little bit annoying.

  • People, what do you want for 60�! Plane, HI-FI stereo ot what. The phone is simple great. Nice, not to heavy, simple to use. All best.

  • its a pitty this fone dont have games but in general is a good fone litle and very praticle equipament.

  • The only bad thing is the annoying tones when switching on or off. There seems to be no way to turn them off. Does anyone know how?

  • Nice, simple mobile for those like me who just want something to make calls with and text people. Not everybody wants flash ringtones, camera or internet stuff on their mobile. This does what I want and no more and does it fairly well. The only criticism I have is that the manual (really no more than a quick guide) is inadequate. Other than that I'm happy.

  • information about registraction or download wallpepar

  • very butiful

  • It is good but how do I change the display?

  • the phone was sexy but i am not happy with the ringtone .so is there any option to upgrade or tomake new rtone from what i record.

  • i experienced quite a few problems with the samsung c120. first of all i find the user manual usefull i dont know why they included it in the first place. second the volume of the speaker is very low. thirdly the directional button is too small (try pressing them and you hit other buttons). my opinion is that it is a cheap design and i rate it 3/10. bad ringtones and no functions for the market.

  • i buy this set today in RS:3700 , its price is good and also color display but one thing lacking in this set is polyphonic ringtones,...and its design is fine but its black color is looking as a baby toy also its sound ..overall rating is 5/10.

  • I just purchased the c120 today worth 3700 rupees today. It is a nice goodlooking friendly user phone. I refer to all motor bike user's to get this phone because you can keep easily in your trouser's pocket while riding on bike.

  • At first Samsung Pruductes are enough famous and very good ... This Mobile c210 is very good and easy to use .. smart...small .. weight..has everything i need .

  • Only 5,500 TK in Bangladesh............

  • this phone should be polyphonic,cost should be less than 3000rs (indian )or 3000 thousand it should launch in jan2006
