Samsung Brightside - 3G feature phone - microSD slot - LCD display - 240 x 320 pixels - rear camera 3.2 MP - Verizon - metallic black

I got this phone about a few days ago and I love it so much! It's the best basic phone you can get thats just like a smartphone, but no data plan. Although there is one con, the camera isn't the best. i know it's only 3.2 mp but they could have at least put in auto focus or something but over all, best phone ever!

This is a great phone! The touch screen is very sensitive, but not too sensitive, it's just right. The call quality is very good, it's pretty light for being a bigger phone, and the slide out keyboard and on-screen keyboard work very well. This phone is very user-friendly. Plus, for being fairly uncommon, there are lots of covers and accessories available for it.

I was looking for a basic /entry level phone. But I was pleasantly surprised with the performance and features. I am learning something new every day I use it! Great sound quality, touch screen, keyboard. Maybe the name should be changed to "surprised " instead of Brightside.

I've used the same Samsung cell phone for about 6 years and loved it, but decided it was time to upgrade. I'm so glad I until now or I'd not have had the choice of the Brightside since it's so new to the market. I wanted a Basic Phone and most phones in that category were in every sense of the word "basic". I wanted a QWERTY slide out keyboard, touch screen, good camera etc., and this fulfilled all I wanted and more. As with any change it takes a while to learn all the features, but I'm plugging away.

I've had this phone for a couple of months now. So far it is mostly what I expected. I wasn't ready to graduate to a smart phone but I wanted a pull out keyboard and a phone that I could get email alerts on as well as check on FB posts. So far I've been happy with it. It does have a few unfortunate quirks though. 1. The phone blacks out while listening to voicemail messages so if you have to press #1, for instance, to listen to messages you have to move your finger over the phone to bring it to the screen again and you have to find the keypad button to bring that up and press one, all before the phone times out for your message. 2. When you want to attach a picture to a text you can't do it from the pictures/video section. Even though I can select the picture and even though there is an option to send, it can't be done on my phone. Nothing happens when I hit send. I have to go to my text messaging option then attach the picture. 3. The touch screen is super sensitive and I used to accidentally dial a favorite contact. I fixed this by giving each contact an option for call or text, so it can't automatically dial anyone now. Other than that it's a good phone for the price.
