    I love my samsung t509

    By Jennifer H  Jun 30, 2006 | 4 out of 5 found this Samsung SGH-T509 review helpful

    Pros: camcorder, stylish, good quality photos

    Cons: no flash, others have hard time hearing me sometime

    The t509 was my second phone by samsung. The first was the e715, which I really loved, but it was getting old and the screen was getting hard to see...plus I wanted a phone with a camcorder. So I got the t509. I really like how thin the phone is. I ...thought the buttons might be too small, but they havent been a problem, except for the clear button. It is smaller than the others and sometimes my fingers slip. I really like the camera and all the options (except no flash! my e715 had a great flash). There are lots of ways to play with the pics...add borders or emoticons, etc. The camcorder is neat. I am a textaholic, and this phone is the best for that! The instant messaging on this phone is great. It is a lot easier to navigate than other phones I have used. One of the only problems i have had with this phone is that several times people have had trouble hearing me. It could be that the phone is so small that you have to hold it just the right way. I move the phone around a little or put earpiece in and that solves it. Bottom line...I love this phone! So many people have seen me use it and made a comment about how cool it looks! Read more Less

    It's cool...

    By M.  Jun 11, 2007 | 1 out of 1 found this Samsung SGH-T509 review helpful

    Pros: compact

    Cons: MP3 songs for ringtones, speaker, ringing...

    I like this phone. For texting, it's ok, but I'd rather get a SK3...although I just finished reading the reviews and might look to something else. The only real problem I have with this phone is the songs I download. I can't use the...m as ringtones. My sister and nephew have a Razr (TMobile too) and I Bluetoothed my songs to her, she can use them! UGH!! I can only use mine for the alarm...what's up with that?? If anyone know's how to "unlock" the songs I download....PUHLEASE let me know! Then the speaker phone....why is the speaker in the back?? It would work better at the ear. I sometimes can't hear the ringing when someone calls...depending on the ring tone, I can't hear it. I too have had my phone ring and ring and I couldn't answer it until I took the battery out...never thought to call TMobile, just something I've dealt with, maybe I should. I've had this phone for about a year, I think, it's been pretty good to me...especially after the first day I got it, it was immersed in soda!! Read more Less

    It's better than a flip!

    By JJ  Aug 18, 2006 | 1 out of 2 found this Samsung SGH-T509 review helpful

    Pros: It's all about style and quality

    Cons: Trouble hearing...

    All in all this is the best camera I've had in a while. Prior to this I had a Motorola V something and it sucked, the flip models do not last long at all! The screen on this little baby is larger, nice graphics, and the pictures come out much ri...cher than most camera phones. And you only need to charge the battery for about an 1 hour to get full battery life. Nice! Read more Less

    A great phone, but ...

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Oct 9, 2007

    Pros: Look, light, slender

    Cons: Buttons, buttons, buttons

    I am the type of person who always gets the free model cell phone. This time I got the phone I liked best. I love the way it looks, the accessories also look good. It works and the directory structure of the commands is learnable. However there is ...no way to change what the phone's buttons do. There are volume buttons on the side, which when touched just shout out at you what that volume setting sounds like, every time. Also, there is a button that is exclusively dedicated to internet access. I have T-Mobile, and it says 't-zones'. Sometimes I'll pull my phone out, and it is like on some internet thing, which I don't want. Also, you have to pay to get your pictures and video off the phone, for internet and for some service. I don't want to do this, at all, so I just can't use my pictures. Why can't I just get a USB converter for my memory card, or for the plug? Also, the speaker volume is a little low during some calls, even when I position it right exactly toward my inner ear. It is never loud. Speaker Phone is quiet. Changing the phone's volume / mute settings is a chore. I have vibrating alarm and one sound alarm, I want another sound one, but I can't even see the difference between the two, anywhere. I don't know how it gets sound, because I have it turned off everywhere, as far as I know. But when I try to turn sound on, the alarm still vibrates. Well, I still use it, because I like it. I do hope it gets improved though, if it did I could recommend it to others. I get a compliment from almost every other young person who ever sees it, they want to heft it etc, and I have to tell them the buttons are all fixed programming. Please ... Read more Less

    i love this phone

    By melaniel  Jul 15, 2007

    Pros: slim, speaker phone, big screen

    Cons: easy to drop, doesn't allow you to set recieved mp3's as ringtones

    I love this phone. Sadly, mine no longer works and i now have to use my chunky old phone. For some reason no matter where i am, i am unable to get service. if anyone knows why or how to fix it please let me know. Like someone else mentioned, I h...ave also had s problem where my phone will keep ringing, not allowing me to answer until I took that battery out. I never took it to T-mobile because it was never that much of a problem. My full review doesn't really agree with my title, but this phone is truly amazing. Everything about it is great.

    Not the Trace

    By Brandon  Apr 20, 2007

    Pros: Thin

    Cons: Screen is to small, all features are locked and you can not create your own media, Camera is sub-standard

    it isn't the best phone i have had. after 3 months i was forced to buy another phone cause i hated the features on it. I went to the Samsung Trace and it has everything that i expected out of this. I would not recommend it for those who like a l...ot of features on your phone,(Music, ring tones, games, ect) for this is not the phone! for those of you who are not technology savvy and just need a basic phone! this would do the job! it is very small, in a good way, but i would recommend the trace Read more Less

    Samsung T509

    By DanB  Feb 8, 2007

    Pros: Lightweight, thin, attention-getter, easy to use, good memory

    Cons: ringer not loud at all, vibrating also not strong- lots of missed calls

    I like the phone very much except for the fact thatI miss a ton of calls because I cannot hear the ringer even at full blast and the vibrating doesnt get your attention either. If these are improved on this phone, I would keep it for as long as possi...ble. Read more Less

    Great Phone

    By frances  Nov 28, 2006

    Pros: very stylish,like the night feature for the camera

    Cons: The speaker phone is very low or want turn on, on command and time to time when phone rings none of the buttons allow me to answer the call.

    This is a great phone but the speaker phone do not work well at all and I can't answer all my phone call no matter what button I push.
