  • I needed an affordable phone to use after I lost my nokia e63 and this phone proved to be very promising. For the price P999 ($20+), I have this handy phone that allows me to send messages, call my contacts (with good voice quality) and have the luxury of having a calendar, converter, stoplight, and flash light in one. For those features, I would have spent at lest P1500 for a regular nokia phone with the same features. Much more, it doesn't look very fancy which makes you safe from thieves. What I like about it are the added features such as: > fake call (press arrow down) > adding numbers in reject list > protecting messages > providing additional privacy (i can modify my phone to ask for a password if someone tries to access my contacts, notes and messages). I love this phone and it has been worth every peso spent. Cons: I accidentally placed someone in reject list and it doesnt have the functionality to remove the person from it. i'm still discovering how it works and once i figure it out, im posting it here :)

  • Not vulnerable to moderate impacts, quite tough. No scratches etc after a year of use.

  • Pros: >Very good battery >Durable chassis >Samsung menu is as usual handy >Strong reception of radio with headset on >overall apperance is good. Cons: >sound quality is below average if not the worst (this is what makes long battery life possible I think) >volume of radio is quite high even at level 1. >alarm doesn't function when phone is off. Hope these comments help you know better about this product. Except incoming sound quality I'm happy with it.

  • Hi All, My review. General: Very useful handset with radio and earphone with 7+ days battery life. Even 14 days is achievable with min use. Keypad is good if a little bit on the soft side. No MP3 ringtone. I haven't experienced switching problem because I delete my SMS message from time to time. 200+ messages make E1160 definitely slower.Fake call, blacklist/rejectlist, torch light features are present. No auto update of time or call conference option. Ringtone volume is sufficiently high.

  • I have samsung gt-e-1160 model Please give me the Default Security code ? to enable phone lock code...... Please help me i am trying to fix this issue long time ..... my Email id [email protected] thanks T.Raja

  • It is overall a cheap but quality handset, I bought it recently but the incoming and outgoing call sound is error some, some words flattered. Can anyone tell me is that is case with anyone or how can I solve the problem.

  • is there autoupdate of time

  • the clock is very accurate +or-30 seconds per month

  • Best phone I have ever come accross. I am really impressed by the battery backup. I haven't charged the phone for the last 7 days. Expecting it will go for two more days. I am using the wireless radio also. The only thing I hate is very bad ringtones. The hindi song ringtones are very bad. The manufacturer in India should have put in bollyhood hits suitable for ringtones.

  • When my inbox msgs are around 250, my phone gets hanged and the only way i can get it back normal is by deleting all the msgs..... Is there any other alternative?? Pls let me know Regards Fani

  • In dis price group e1160.good but key pad is not good.

  • It doesn't have the option of making contact groups... meaning that you cannot make groups and henceforth cannot send msgs to people in that group. :(

  • great! it's don't have dark green? and have timed profile?

  • wow e battery is can withstand long hour!!!

  • Low Cost Great Phone

  • Wow! 15 hours battery life!

  • stupid|

  • This is a very nice phone in its class and I'm very happy. It has an excellent battery backup of 5 days approx (called up my friends, lit the torch and listened to FM without headphones for hours). I won't say the sound quality is better than SE walkman phone but you can't compare as this is a unique phone in its price range. Priced @ Rs.1900 approx. All the specifications mentioned here are correct.

  • What's the point of zillion new entry level basic phones from Samsung these days?

  • does it have card slot ?

  • This is a pretty good low end phone, priced at approx 43$. It has all the things it boasts of. The plus points 1) Pretty good battery backup, I would say that it can run on a single charge for normal use(two hrs talk time)for a couple of weeks. 2) Good FM Radio and good speakers - The radio can work without the antenna and gives good voice clarity. The sound output from the dual speakers is also sufficient. 3) The torch light is a tad less brighter than the Nokia 1100 but the plus point is u dont have to keep holding down a button to keep it lighted. You have the option to switch it on and off. 4) Well spaced keys for easy use. 5) Power saving mode to conserve battery. 6) Mobile tracker 2.0 which is password protected. This facility, will send an sms to a predetermined number, whenever the SIM card is changed. 7) The facility of fake call. Minus Points 1) There is no option to set the time when the keypad is locked, and once it is set to autolock, the keypad is locks in approx 10 seconds, which is a problem when trying to send a well thought SMS.But the saving grace is that when you unlock the keypad, you find yourself at the same place you had got the keypad locked. For people like me who type a lot of sms, the best thing is manual keypad lock, which is easy as there is not combination keys. Press down the * key for a couple of seconds and the keypad is locked. 2)When kept idle the screen goes completely blank(Doesn't even show the date or time) 3) The polyphonic tunes and ringtones included are not that catchy and there is no option to add polyphonic ringtones or mp3 tones to the list.

  • While click the contacts menu, it says 'Phone book initializing', after that nothing happened. after restart only it loads the phone book

  • great low end phone.

  • What about the wireless radio of this set? Is the radio stereo or just mono?

  • yes....dual speaker is fantastic...loud & clear...^^

  • never thinked of a low end phone with stereo speaker.. this phone rocks..

  • nice battery life ugly memory

  • low end phone with stereo speakers nice :D

  • wohoo 1st
