I am normally very easy to please when it comes to a cell phone until I got the Samsung A237. This phone is a total piece of junk. The nerve that they list this phone for $189.00. I got it for free and thought I got a great deal. Drop calls all the time, horrible volume, low ring tone[on full volume], writing a text message is a project,small keys, hard to use...there is nothing good about this phone.

This phone is pure trash. I bought two, one for my wife and one for me. We are heavy users. The phones are going back to ATT 10 days after I bought them. Trash, trash, trash. Poor voice quality, poor reception, short battery life, drop calls and on and on.

this phone is ok for a women to use, its a little to small for a guy with bigger hands, the buttons have to be pressed just so for it to work, my old phone which was a samsung SGH-c416 is a much easier phone to use if you have big hands, i also notice that in silent mode RE:vibrator mode it's hard to feel the vibration when you have a call coming in, not so with my old phone, that had a good noticeable vibrator, sure wish they would start making the samsung SGH'c416 again, a real mans phone

For a basic phone, this is it. I didn't want any of the googaws, just the basics. This is fairly easy to use.

I did have a hard time finding software that would let my phone communicate with my computer. It took a lot of internet searching, but I found it. I wish Samsung would have listed it.

This phone looks good in pictures but once u start using it, you feel like you are using a phone designed for early 90's. I remember the samsung phone which I bought in 2003 sounds and looks lot better than this A237. This is very very basic phone with many disappointing features. My A237 phone's speaker phone was not working. Regular voice clarity was not good at all. I would not recommend this phone to anybody. Go for a better phone.

I love this phone but my blue tooth doesn't work though! It has great design. Plus every time I dropped(not on purpose) it never broke or got really scratched up! This is an awesome phone!:)

Where can i find software that allows my phone to connect to the computer, because i plugged in the usb and it can neither connect from the disc it came with nor by normal search.

I own a Samsung A237 and the phone is complete junk. Battery doesn't charged long , voice is fading , phone numbers don't last long, bluetooth voice fades , addtional charges I have to correct . This is my first and will be my last Samsung. Can't wait to update.

I have had the phone since December. I would continually get dropped calls going to my voice mail after picking it up and two rings. The local store originally didn't have an answer and it was warranted for the same phone. Same problem with the new one. The store finally concluded that picking up the phone wrong could activate the forward to voice mail or silence the call so the phone would ring several times then go to voice mail.
S o we are not happy with this phone. The very sensitive buttons on the left (volume up/down) have caused real problems for us. We would not buy this phone again and are attempting to get rid of it ASAP!!!!

I love the design of this phone and the features. There is still a large market of people who don't want a phone that does "everything," but rather, a phone who does a few things really well. Trying to put too many features in a small device is a recipe for errors. It is also nice to still see round clunky phones, the super slim ones are not the most practical or durable.

This phone cannot receive files over Bluetooth from other devices (despite what the documentation insinuates). The Bluetooth support only extends to headsets and other hands-free devices.
