Samsung E590 review: Simple on purpose

Samsung E590 review: Simple on purpose - read the full textDesignwise, the Samsung E590 is stunningly different from pretty much everything you would expect in a modern mobile phone. Yet, its armory includes a high-quality TFT display and a decent 3 megapixel camera. Plus, it’s delightfully minimalist and comes at a...

i just got it yesterday and i already really like it!
- good camera
- good mp3 player
- good fm
- micro sd storage up to 2GB
- tiny
- weightless
- edge
- bluetooth (even stereo)
- etc...

for those who had a samsung, menu will be easy to navigate in and well, for others too in fact i think

the design is not the one of a U600 or U700 i admit it, but in fact i really like it: simple but with quality

it has all "necessary" things i think for a today phone, without all unnecessary things that made other phones so expensive

The phone rings and vibrates so I don't know what you are talking about.

I was looking for an ultralight pocket phone that wouldn't snap in half if I accidentally sat on it and this phone is it. At 65g it weight less than my switchblade key for my car and having a 3mp camera is just a bonus.

I just wish the phonebook search methods were a bit better.

Excellent basic phone. I like the buttons, the display, form factor and simple elegant look. Now, give me one without the camera and I'll buy it immediately. Not ALL of us want cameras.

What does "and STILL no ring+vibrate." mean?

Even D900 can ring and vibrate simultaneously.

Good review. Nice looking phone and good features, but I would never get it because they still use that awful UI that you can't change. Those icons are too simple and the menus very crowded.

Almost forgot:
I only saw it in black or gray, too. No white.

Not a design marvel, but a nice little phone with a cool camera.
For only €198,55 (unlocked), it really is cheap.
Voice dialing still missing =( and STILL no ring+vibrate.
