Review: Samsung's SGH-P300 Credit Card Phone

It's thin, it's small, and it looks like a calculator! The P300 really grabbed my attention when I first saw it live earlier this year. It has the design and specs enough to get your attention, but does it pull it all together?

I think it's SO UGLY!:p It'd still be an interesting phone to own, but it just looks so 80s! Although this I think would be a better phone to show off than a RAZR;)

Yeah, I was gonna say that too. Reminded me of my dad's old brick phone (styling wise). Like wtf, retro is cool, but this is the wrong side of it.

You know what would've made it infininitely better? If the top part weren't black plastic...should've been just metal like the rest of the body!

Michael seemed to like this phone, it was nearly all good apart from the audio quality - kinda sad for a phone:rolleyes: and a memory card slot

The UI looks nice, as Samsungs do. Good thing though is that it has apparently received the same improvement towards better usability, (the lack of it which has kept me away from samsung)

The thing I like the best though is this:

Real credit card phone has a leather wallet to be put inside:p

LOL I actually do really like the leather case...kinda funny how you put it--real credit card phone in a leather wallet:p

I am pretty impressed with all it offers, don't mistake me...but yeah, just that tiny little design flaw!:cool:
