Until I unearthed this little gem, I was using a Nokia Xpress 5310 "smart phone". Whilst it was all singing and dancing with it's bells and whistles, somewhere in it's development it had forgotten it's fundamental function.
As a PHONE - it sucked, with poor reception and signal strength. And it required charging every 2 days!
So I decided to get back to basics. Having read other reviews of the Samsung E1150, I purchased one via Amazon & Fonz direct, popped in my sim and switched on.
Oh joy of joys, I can now phone from areas I could not previously, and with a clarity hitherto unmatched. The battery barely needs charging once weekly!
Compared to the roof slate that I used to carry, it is small, lightweight and could hardly be easier to operate. For anyone who really only requires to talk'n'text, this phone takes some beating.
Although budget priced it is well made, and being a flip phone the keys and screen are well protected.
