Samsung SGH D357 - Cellular phone - AT&T - GSM - silver

As many people hate this phone I've had it for two years and haven't had any trouble with it what so ever. The only few bugs are the screen is hard to see in sunlight, or if you have it in your pocket and you bump it and you hear "say a command", but thats about it.

Mine didn't come with a camera but it did come with bluetooth and it works very well. I have about 59 ringtones and they sound really good on the speaker. The connection speed isn't great when shopping for pictures, tones, videos, ect. Sending and receiving texts it very easy and I guess my area has a lot of bars cause I can talk quite easily to just about anyone. I rarely find places with no bars on the phone so thats really great.

Well I've never had a fancy phone, and the only thing on this phone I'd add is a music player and thats it. I find it to be a very decent phone so.

This was by far the worst cell phone I've ever had. You can't hear anything and people on the other line can't hear you. The buttons on the side are very touchy and also control if the phone is on silent or not. Mine will hit against something in my purse and turn itself on ring. This phone is horrible. I do not recommend it

I've been through quite a few phones in the past couple years (Nokia, LG, Motorola, and now this Samsung) and I have got to say that this is by far the worst of the bunch. This phone fails at almost everything that makes a cellphone good. The reception is terrible (A two minute conversation takes 10 minutes because you and the person on the other end always need to repeat yourselves), It does not keep your contacts organized very well (multiple entries for the same person if they have more than one number...), a ludicrous "Push to talk" feature that is entirely worthless...even the alarm clock is needlessly complicated.

If you are shopping for a cell phone, DO NOT GET SUCKERED INTO BUYING THIS MODEL. You will be disappointed, I promise you.
I decided to write this review after being swindled into getting this phone for my 2 year contract upgrade. This is a downgrade and a half, that's for sure.

I bought 2 of these phones in April because of the Push to Talk feature.

The speaker phone is almost impossible to hear. If you both say something at the same time it cuts out what the other person said. The ear volume is low, you have to push the phone into your ear and have to cut out all your background noise.

The push to talk feature sucks. When you press the PTT button it doesn't work right away. First you get a message that says "keypad lock". Then you press it again and the message goes away. Then you gotta press it again for the PTT screen to come up and then press it again to alert the person. The PTT beeping is extremely loud. If you put the phone on vibrate the beeping sound is lower BUT so is the speaker volume. The PTT is not clear either. It sounds like the other person has the phone in their mouth and you keep having to repeat everything.

The phone is hard to hold. It's constantly slipping out of my hand, luckily I haven't dropped it.

The buttons on the side are touchy. I'm constantly bumping them when my phone is in my purse. I'm either accidently putting the phone on vibrate and missing calls or I hear that lady saying "say a command".

The screen is hard to see if your in the sunlight. When I'm in the car and someone calls me I can barely see who it is and if I'm trying to make a call outside or send a text message then I strain to see the screen.

There's just so many more minor things I don't like about it but I don't want to go on and on. Right now I'm stuck with these phones because I'm on a 2 year contract and it's long past the 30 day return policy.
