General Comments
After 1 month of owning this Samsung S300 mobile phone, I have concluded that it is the worst phone I've ever used! Whenever you recieve a text message the phone alerts you every thirty seconds until the text is read!!...this is such a pain when you recieve a text in the middle of the night!
The texting features on this phone are prehistoric! How Samsung let this phone out with such appauling T9 predictive text and no dictionary - the phone insists on writing in capitals as default every time! Arrgh!
When recieving a call the front display shows only the number and not the name of the person. The ring tones are far too loud and annoying. I am about to swap it for a Nokia 7250i, and good ridance to it!
On average, people found this review somewhat helpful

It concerns me when I read the rantings of a person who makes no effort whatsoever to hide the fact that they are unable to make simple decisions based on common sense and the smallest amount of lateral thought.
As well as being a well built and aesthetically pleasing phone, the S300 is, I feel, more than capable in terms of technological wizardry and subsequently a sight more user friendly than your review suggests. I find it incredibly difficult to ascertain as to how you failed to discover the radio button feature which provides alternatives of being alerted of the delivery of a text message. It took me no longer than 40 mins to become accustomed with the menu functions of this phone and one of the first options I took was that of silencing the message alert tone.
I have also owned numerous Nokias and do not in any way dispute the fact that they boast an extremely easy to use, intelligent, menu system. Owning them has not left me devoid of grey matter, however.
