(More customer reviews)I am a huge fan of touch electronics. I wanted a touch phone and I decided to go with this one. I had a sidekick 2009 and I hated it with a passion. The phone would drop calls and lose service like everyday. The Samsung Behold is a cute little phone with great features. The phone as we all know is touch screen, This is a great feature and overall works perfectly. It takes a little getting use to when you use the touch screen to send texts but it doesnt take all but maybe 15 minutes. The screen has a arrow that you press which brings out a bar to the left had side which displays widgets. Now these widgets are very cool cause you can drag as many as you want out of the widget bar onto the main screen. This allows you to personilize your phone as you see fit. This is a very cool feature to me.
There are other great things as well. The camera on here is a 5 megapixel camera and takes some pretty good pics for a phone. Also the phone runs on a 3G network which allows for faster texts and picture mails and internet. The internet on this phone is not all that great. It is ok but I felt could have been better. On the front of the phone are two dots to the top left hand corner. These are there so that when you hold the phone to your face while on a call it can tell so that it turns off the display light so it wont kill the battery, This is pretty neat cause when you take the phone off your face to look at the screen the light comes back on.
The front of the phone is very simple. You have physical keys on the bottom which are the answer, end call and in the middle of those two the back button. Now when you unlock the screen there are four buttons on the screen. Here we have the dial pad, the phone book, the web and the menu button. They are small and dont look weird on the screen.
The call value is great. The volume goes up to 7 but is very loud. I hear my friends clear and they hear me clear as well. I had one drop call but I think thats because of TMobile not because of the phone.
People have complained about the battery life. I have no issues with that. At the end of the day (midnight) I still have 2 bars left. Now if you the type to sit there and mess with the phone and press it all day then yeah the battery will dies fast.
Overall I have to say that I love this phone. This phone is my first touch screen and I love it. I had to get the pink cause TMobile didnt have it in espresso but I find that that pink is nicer looking. This is a great phone for anyone that wants their first touch screen phone.
