Reviewed by Jess on 05/07/2008Its A Really Good Mobile To Have I Love It REALLY LOVE IT =D Rating: Reviewed by ruth on 05/07/2008 is a great fone but i agree that the battery cover is hard to get off. i managed it though. was a great phone and i got a memory card for it but sumthins wrong with it now. it keeps turnin off randomly :S i'll need to get it checked out.all in all a good phone. Rating: Reviewed by Jake Schembri on 05/07/2008 I bought this phone 5 days ago and i must say im happy with it. The battery life seems fine and the reason is because i did what you should always do with a phone...charge it for 8 or so hours straight when you buy it! It stays on all day for nearly 3 days.(ive only charged it once) Stop winging about the camera ..yes it is vga but so what it take perfectly normal photos ..who needs a full on 2 or 3 MP camera on a phone. Just use your digital camera. THE ONLY ANNOYING THING IS THE BATTERY COVER!! OMG!! it took me ages to get it off! then luckily i found one of those grip things in mums kitchen lol and it slid off so im alright with that! SO!...to anyone who has a grip thingo in their kitchen and wants a perfectly nice sexy modern phone...bu this one!! Rating: Reviewed by Heather on 04/07/2008 For the price it's great. My nine year old daughter has the same phone in lilac and she loves it. The only problem we have with it is that the volume is poor. I miss so many calls because I can't hear it when it's in my bag (even have it on vibrate too). Tried changing the ring tone but to no avail. Otherwise, it's well worth the money and it's a neat and very sturdy little thing. Rating: Reviewed by Daniel on 30/06/2008 Some people on this just seem to like complaining. Last week my N73 died for no reason. I bought this phone because it had Bluetooth, a Memory Card Slot and it was only ¤49. Sure the camera isnt great but what do you expect. The phone is much better than the Nokia 5200. There is more memory in it for starters. The display is bigger, sharper and brighter than the 5200. Videos look better and the E250 is thinner and cheaper than the 5200. But you should buy a MicroSD card for the phone to hold more music, pictures and videos. I have had no problems with it. You should buy this phone if you are looking for a cheap phone with a camera and mp3 player. Also the headphones are much better than the ones included with a phone are much better than the N73 and the phone doesnt take as long to turn on as the N73. The only thing I have a problem with is that the Vodafone branded version (E250v) does not include the USB cable Rating: Reviewed by judy on 28/06/2008 its a cool phone xcept for its memory and battery life.but overall you should own one! Rating: Reviewed by janice on 25/06/2008 i've had the phone for almost a year now and the battery life has deteriated rapidly. And often when typing a long sms, it clears by itself. not very impressed, i'd rather have my old samsung E330 back - the old pebble phone. Rating: Reviewed by Claire on 25/06/2008 I have only just received this phone and i cant take the back off to put the battery in. I have have pressed down hard, tried to push it up but nothing is working. Can anyone help me? Rating: Reviewed by DAVE on 22/06/2008 this phone is a very good one as i own one my self the only down side is the battery dosnt last the 250 hours its ment to it only last about 24 if using it non stop but all round a very very good phone Rating: Reviewed by Rob on 21/06/2008 My Gran got this phone before I got the chance to test it. I wasnt expecting much due to the price, I thaught 'Oh dear, another attempt from samsung, trying to make a slide phone', but I was wrong! I switched it on and wow! The screen, power, buttons could be a little nicer to the fingers, but apart from that it's okay. the camrea, don't expect much from samsung people but there new slide coming out in aughust will be mint!

Rating: Reviewed by Shelagh on 12/06/2008 I have had my phone for a week now and think it is great. love the slide to answer/ slide to stop and the cmera is remarkably good quality! The radio is extremely clear and having loudspeaker and volume control on side of phone is a bonus. Screen is good size with gret visibility and keys are easy to use (I am getting very short sighted! Incredibly good value Rating: Reviewed by Jacob k. coimbator India on 11/06/2008 i bought this phone 2 weeks back.it is a grat phone ,it has got every thing that i need ,blutooth camera edge .....and lots more .it is really worth for the money.thank u samsung.BUY IT Rating: Reviewed by luky on 05/06/2008 it is the best Rating: Reviewed by Lomso on 03/06/2008 Me and my two friends were using this phone until all our screens turned blank and its unreliable Rating: Reviewed by priscilla on 03/06/2008 i think it is good but then the colour should change into blue or a nice colour thank you.xxxxxxxxxxxxx Rating: Reviewed by Emily on 01/06/2008 I bought this phone a couple of months ago, but have now replaced it. The main problem was the signal quality, I never managed to have a phone call without the signal breaking up or the other person not being able to hear me - and with my previous (and current) phones, the signal has never been an issue. Therefore in the end I had to replace it as i defied the point of having a phone if I couldn't have a conversation on it! However, it is a really nice looking phone, nice neat & slim design, and really easy to use, and has some good features. Probably a good phone to have if you text a lot rather than phone people. Rating: Reviewed by ryanbk06@yahoo.com on 30/05/2008 I love this phone so much I bought another and put it up should incase I lost the one I'm now using.I have mine three weeks now.Two thumbs up for the design,it looks like something I would design,thats what I love the most about it.

I have had this phone for over a year and no problems what so ever. I think the only thing that could improve would be the camera, but hay if you want to take nice photos get a camera! not a phone! :D But yeah i would recommend this phone to just about anyone :) Rating: Reviewed by Melissa on 22/05/2008 This phone will not break, i have had it since november 2007 and have been wanting a new phone since i brought it! i have chucked it at walls, in the air everything nothing will break mine there is nothign actully wrong with it, it is a great & easy to use phone the only thing that has gone wrong wiht it is the bluetooth a couple of months ago, it cant find people or people cant find you, some times in works and some times it doesn't it bit of a hit or miss! the camera is not the best but for VGA camera what do you expect but does take photos the internal memory will there isnt much of it, i have only been able to store one song it and about 20 photos that is it, but once you get a memory card its fine =) overall it is a good phone for its price Rating: Reviewed by Michael on 20/05/2008 Its an ok phone for the money. Camera isnt great and memory is low. You will need a mem Card and bluetooth on your pc if you want to copy over mp3s. Radio sounds great on headphones - i wondered too about having to have the headset in to listen to the radio on the speaker - it maybe that the headset acts as an FM aerial. Rating: Reviewed by Sarah on 20/05/2008 I love this fone, probs the best fone ive ever had only problem is ive had 2 of them in the past 6 months, both stopped working with the same fault. the screen goes on them pretty quick =[ Rating: Reviewed by luke on 19/05/2008 the samsung e250 is a great phone i got it in silver Rating: Reviewed by Lexi on 19/05/2008 hey ppls i hav had dis fone 4 bout a yr n i h8d it da day i got it n i've bin lookin 4 a betr 1 since i got it. if ne 1 is finkin of getin dis fone den i advise evry1 not 2.

Rating: Reviewed by oluoch ebrahim on 16/05/2008 I have the opportunity to use the phone and I must say it is very exciting and entertaining especially with all the music and the fm radio.However, one notable limitations that I must say it has is that when it comes to installing applications, one can really have a nightmare because more often than not, you will always see the installation error information. What could be the solution to this?You can contact me through the email adress, oluochebrahim@yahoo.com Rating: Reviewed by xxxx on 16/05/2008 This in one of the worst phone i have seen. This is not at all user friendly. there is no option in this phone to change vibrating mode to silent mode. without any reason the phone it self switches off.More over it has lot of display problems.

Rating: Reviewed by Jordan on 07/05/2008 This phone is the best if all u want to do is make calls, and some people may want if for that reason,but if you enjoy the things like the at least 2 mega pixal camra or the brilliant sound. for about £60 more get something better like a 3.2 mega pixel camra ans a lot better sound. Like the U600.

Most of the complaints below are solved if you...READ THE MANUAL! You will need to buy a usb and car charger cable as they are not supplied,but can be had on Ebay all in for under £10.Can only repeat..BARGAIN PHONE! Rating: Reviewed by Jonathan on 03/05/2008 I can't rate it so good because i don't own one but when ever my friend comes round i can't stop playing with it! When he sent a song to my PDA via infrared i can't say it was easy to get the ports aligned and nor was it easy to get it to start sending but when it was sending a 3mb file took only about 15 minutes which for infrared is not bad. It is a very fascinating phone and for the price i'd call it feature-packed. Rating: Reviewed by p.s on 01/05/2008 my samsung e250 is broken the screen slowly began to dissapear and now its gone what a load of rubbish Rating: Reviewed by S.a.m. on 01/05/2008 i dont think its all that because when i want 2 store songs on it,it only lets me store 2 and thats y i give it a 2 star rating!!!!but, the good thing is that it was half price so i should be gratful really!?!

Rating: Reviewed by anon on 28/04/2008 had the phone bout 6 months and screen completely went all white and every time you touch it this black blob in the middle got larger.The carphone warehouse tryed to make us pay £50 for the problem. Ended up buying E770 from the reconditioned area in Orange ONLY £45!I swear the only good thing about the e250 phone is it's looks! Rating: Reviewed by valentine from Zimbabwe on 28/04/2008 well, if it had a long lasting battery life and an onboard larger memory, for example 65mb on phone memory. The fone could have been the best thing Samsung had ever made. Perfect functions, very excellent appearance(slim & compact), radio e.t.c. Rating: Reviewed by Kareem Azab on 27/04/2008 Sam sung e-250 is very bad mobile. any one reads the specification will think that it's a nice mobile, but the fact that it's not. I will tell you why, for example when you install a memory card and while you are recording a video clip using the Sam sung e-250 mobile, the clip should be saved on the memory card but the fact is that the clip is always saving on phone memory that means that you can't take a video more than 2 minutes and after that you have to stop recording and save it and then remove the clip to the memory card to make a free space on the phone memory because the mobile specifications is set to record video, photos, and every thing on the phone memory however there is a memory card installed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That's my mobile number:- 0020104988954 So, Samsung -250 is a bad mobile don't buy it :@ :@ Bye Rating: Reviewed by ??? on 26/04/2008 this phone is really bad. i have not evan had it a week and it gone back. this phone is rubbish Rating: Reviewed by sara on 25/04/2008 its a terrible phone dont ever buy one i have had nothing but trouble..

The only button that works is the power beutton so the only thing i can do with my phone is turn it on and off but the funny thing is i have not droped it or damaged it in anyway. Rating: Reviewed by Rehnaa on 20/04/2008 Well i've got a Samsung SGH E250 and it is excellent. It has everything i need and if you get it from Argos, they even give you a memory card last time i had a differant pink phone and that was good just like this Samsung SGH E250. I would rate this= 1,000,000/1,000,000 or if more then even more. Its one of the best phone this Samsung SGH E250 and my other pink phone whichs name i forgot because its so hard are the best phone ever Rating: Reviewed by Stuart on 19/04/2008 when i first got this fone the video camera was fine. However after 1 day it recorded upsidedown. Please HELP. Rating: Reviewed by Sean Azey on 17/04/2008 I have only had this phone for one month and I found that the battery cover was really hard to get off so I thought the phone would slip out of my hands and break. Although the Menu was really user-friendly. Rating: Reviewed by Sarah on 17/04/2008 Brand new phone, so far so good!!

Ignore comments below about not able to get back off - I managed it straight away with no probs (and I'm blonde)! Menus easy to get around - large display easy to read for those with not so good eyesight. Older people have trouble with mobile phone buttons being too small to see or fiddly to operate. This phone is GREAT - can see numbers & text clearly and manage buttons very well. GREAT PHONE FOR THE PRICE - don't hesitate - GO GET IT! Phones4U do good deals too. I'm with Virgin network and could just put my own SIM into it and ready to rock and roll!

Easy access to the battery and sim people who cant get the back off are weird! I love it!!! My best phone yet! Rating: Reviewed by Helen Reading on 24/03/2008 When I last bought a phone, all they did was make phone calls and send texts. I am thrilled with this phone - I think of it like my "IPhone" except it cost a fraction of the price. The email / internet functionality works fine although I would not do a great deal of internet browsing on it. The MP3 player sound is really good and is as good as having a dedicated player, once you add an sd card for extra storage. My only very slight criticisms - it would have been nice if the usb data cable, a case and a screen protector had been provided. Rating: Reviewed by Ges Brown on 22/03/2008 had this phone for about 9 months. very good allround,never let me down, has all the positive points as above,good sound MP3 and radio,Camera not the best but then the phone is inexpensive anyway. Only 3 negative points. 1) The back plate is a swine to remove, I was afraid of breaking it same as previous reviewers. 2) battery life not that good. 3) Need damp hands to slide open onehanded, otherwise two handed job. Maybe all sliders are the same as my previous samsungs have been Clams. All in all a brilliant phone for the money. Rating: Reviewed by natalie on 21/03/2008 I got this phone for christmas and I think it's brill. Unfortunately, I didn't get a memory card with it but I bought a 2G micro SD memory card from play.com for a tenner, and now its all gravy :-). Honestly, If you're thinking about buying a new phone that is simple and anti-high-tech, this is THE phone for you, enjoy!! Rating: Reviewed by Lucy on 20/03/2008 Had this phone for about a year now, and no problems. A great little phone, though my sliding bit is a little stiff and wobbly, and was so when I bought it first, which is a bit annoying. Colours on the screen are quite pixelated due to the low res. but that is obvious. The camera is alright, but a flash and more megapixels would be ace. Easy to get used to and use; a good buy if you just want a good phone, at a cheap price. [I've seen them at around £35 now.] I'm only getting a new phone because I want more megapixels on the camera, and better resolution. Great little phone.

Rating: Reviewed by ALAN - LONDON on 13/03/2008 I purchased this phone and from day one I knew it was a mistake,not only could I not remove the back cover to remove the battery or sim card so that it could be returned to T-Mobile, the ring tones could not be accessed via the menu and Samsung customer services were next to useless,they had given me incorrect product information prior to purchase and when I contacted them they didn't want to know. Do not buy this phone.

Rating: Reviewed by dean on 11/03/2008 its not load enoughth thou Rating: Reviewed by Jon on 09/03/2008 I've had this phone for over 6 months, and for a budget mobile, it's pretty good. True, the people saying they can't get the back off easily are right, but I don't find it much of an issue. I got a 1gb memory card off amazon, excellent value, less than a fiver, and I can fit a LOT of songs on there. Couple of gripes though. The playlist capability of the music player is a bit iffy, there are only 4 playlists and they only fit 30 tracks on each, but it's quick and easy to change your playlist around so not too bad. The phone doesn't come with any kind of cable or PC software, I had to borrow mine off a friend who got the e900 a few weeks before I bought this one, and that's the only way to get files from your computer to your phone and vice versa. I'm sure you can buy a cable and the software separately though (look for Samsung PC studio or something like that). Nice little phone for a nice little price. Rating: Reviewed by Annelise Hamilton on 09/03/2008 GREAT PHONE BEST ONE I'VE EVER HAD only about 2 bad things about it: 1. Poor Memory 2. Poor Battery life.

I even thought about replacing mechanical vibrating mechanism with a small enough electronic ring (do you know a good instance?) !! and setting sms vibrating alert on!! I dont know if some other hardware manipulation can be made to workaround this nasty problem. phone is realy good in other parts, so why such bug should degrade it so much? why there isnt a (probably official) workaround? a software patch; firmware upgrade... etc. I dont know! we realy need at least a much stronger sound for sms alerts. their owns are almost useless!

Shame for the price i paid for it. I paid £70 for the phone which i thought was a rip. The design is a bit lazy but the phone itself is very good.

I have no problem with the battery life unlike most people. It's camera's so-so, but I have my own digital camera, so it's fine. The speakers are pretty loud, so it's awesome. The bad points of the phone: really SMALL memory & I can't get the back cover off. The small memory can be fixed by getting a Micro SD card, which is about 500 pesos [for a 1gig] here. But I get really scared whenever I have to remove the back cover, I feel I might break it. :| But seriously, I love this phone. :) Rating: Reviewed by chris on 19/02/2008 bad Rating: Reviewed by sarah on 17/02/2008 This phone randomly broke on me after just two months of having it.

Rating: Reviewed by Loren on 15/02/2008 When I first got this phone, I was scared that I was going to break it as back was so hard to get off! However, I did eventually open it and have now had the phone for 5-6 months now. Its a good phone however the ringtones are poor, the speakers aren't loud, you can get a better camera in this price range and you have to buy all the pre-loaded games on it. Don't get me wrong, its a great cheapy, beginners phone but for the price range now you can get better. Rating: Reviewed by john on 15/02/2008 The phone seems great, only had it a few days though.

Rating: Reviewed by N/A on 05/02/2008 I really like this phone, it has everything yoiu need - MP3, games, bluetooth, WAP, the works. I got it in black from Carphone Warehouse for £39.95 - a great deal. For me, there are only two things wrong with it: Very poor battery life You cann't find a decent case for it anywhere! Also, a lot of people have been moaning aboput the memory capacity. If you want songs so bad, either buy a memory card, are get an MP3 player! All in all, the pros certainly outweigh the cons with this phone, and with that price, it's a wonder they're not all sold out! Rating: Reviewed by Michelle on 02/02/2008 I've had this phone for almost a year now, and it has been a good little phone. I agree with some of the comments about battery life, if your a big talker be prepared to do a lot of re-charging, but I don't really see this as a big problem. I've found the camera to be really good, as long as you don't move whilst taking the photo, otherwise its just a huge blur. With regards to the MP3 player, I would definitely buy a SD card, as the phone will only store 1 song otherwise. However, if you shop around these days you can get one already with the phone. If you've not got loads to spend I would recommend this phone, it looks nice, the slider is fab, have not had one problem with reception or anything else. Shop around and get a bargain.

Rating: Reviewed by AY on 01/02/2008 I bought it new on PAYG from Carphone WH for £40, £30 for the phone and the mandatory £10 air time. Brilliant feature-packed phone, it is sturdy and solid design, quite a loud speaker too. Battery life is pretty good. ***THE PROS:*** excellent quality bluetooth strength. Good camera quality. Brilliant reception and phone call quality. Good buttons. Cheap price tag! Fast battery recharge. Good batery life. **THE CONS:** screen is a bit pixelated, could be better quality. There are no voice commands or voice dialling unfortunately. Should come with a free memory card, they're so cheap nowadays! A bit hard to slide the phone up unless you hold it and angle your thumb down and push it up while pressing. Not the nicest menu system (ugly fonts). Can not change SMS TXT alert tone. **OVERALL:** The cons do not amount to subtracting a star - only because the price of the phone is SO CHEAP! I am happy to be using this as my main phone for the meantime, eventually I will chang e to a contract again but for now I don't need a state-of-the-art phone or an expensive contract. If you want a cheap but GOOD phone, this is the phone. Rating: Reviewed by Promza on 01/02/2008 It needs work on faster data transmitin. Usb upgrade .

Rating: Reviewed by Clive from Zimbabwe on 02/01/2008 The SGH-E250, a very good fone, good voice quality. I can say this fone is excellent, the camera is perfect, navigation superb. The only defects i can say are a drawback are, 1. the slide tends to be heavy, it should have been smoother, also i noticed that, there some scratching at back of the part which slides up, meaning that there is friction somewhere inside, and this is relly dab, i think it is a manufacturing error coz my other friend whom i bought the fone at the same time had his sliding part scratched also. the other disadvantage is the battery it tends to kinda of heat up during charging and the batt life is not that good. In a nutshell the E250 stands above most slide fones I really luv it.

The bad : The rear cover is a pain to get off, though the bloke in the shop did it in seconds. I'd prefer a standard headphone socket. and the ugly : I had to buy a USB connection lead and downloaded the PC software from the samsung site - I then found it didn't work! I tried the XP and Vista versions (on appropriate PCs) and neither worked. I've yet to call their help line but I this shouldn't be rocket science! To sum up - I like the phone, I don't notice I'm even carrying it and it's very simple to use - but not with a PC! I'd of given it 4 stars if the software worked and 5 if it had a bit more memory with a 2mb camara. Rating: Reviewed by Paul on 30/12/2007 This phone is all right. The only (minor) details I find annoying are: 1. The connectors for the earphones are not equal. By design, one of them is longer and the remote is supposed to hang under one of the ears. This design is stupid. Couldn't they make the eaprhnes with a central remote, on user's chest? 2. The verry annoying Vodafone Live button, which is useless for me and unfortuantelly cannot be removed without a firmware update. I recently bought a Nokia 6234 (also Vodafone-branded) and both the above flaws are not present. The headset has simmetrical connectors for the earphones and the live button can be removed, because the standby softkeys are tottaly customisable. Of cours, Nokia 6234 costs about double.... I give E250 3 stars- good, but it could heve been better. Also, the display sux compared to nokia's.. But then, the price is cheaper... You can't have them all...
