Excellent Phone Purchase!
By Erica Reid
The Samsung Behold is not a smartphone, just to get that out the way early. It is an exceptional device but smart device it is not. So anyhow, I purchased this phone to replace a recent purchase of a Sidekick LX that as we all know has ceased the use of data. I have a primary phone, the Blackberry 9700, however I like having two lines because when the Blackberry inevitably dies before I get home at the end of each day I will still have a fully charged phone waiting. I will break my analysis of the phone down into sections.PackagingI opted for the overnight shipping, which was only $3.99 on Amazon Prime Student Edition. This phone arrived super fast and the packaging was amazing. When I opened the package I found that the phone was in the original Samsung packaging. When I opened the packaging I found the phone in immaculate shape. The plastic cover was still on the screen, the battery was enclosed in a plastic packaging, and everything looked as if it was brand new. No scratches non-whatsoever. Overall, very professional packaging, which is always much appreciated.Phone Touch ScreenThe screen on this phone is amazingly bright and vibrant. To make a selection on the screen you have to press firmly, which I like but if you are looking for a touch screen that is as fluid as the G1 then you will be disappointed. I have medium fingers and when I first started playing this phone I was annoyed and was kind of glad that it is a secondary phone because otherwise the texting would drive me insane. What I have found is that this is a very sexist phone. If you are a woman and have medium fingernails then this is your biggest ally when typing on the screen. If you are a guy, who typically have short fingernails, I recommend a stylus. Once I started using my fingernails to text and not my fingers I found the process to be quick and efficient with no mistaken letter pushes.Phone Front ScreenThe main screen allows you to modify the icons and move them to the home screen. This is a decent feature that I have found useful. I do wish that we had the opportunity to download other widgets that are more tailored to what you use but the default one's are the only options.Phone Call QualityThe quality of the phone calls are very clear and crisp. No choppy voices or static.BluetoothI was able to connect my Bluetooth to this device in two minutes flat. The Bluetooth call quality was clear and crisp, no issues there.BrowserNow comes the downside to this phone. This browser is a very crude type of browser. With a phone that has so many features you would think that there would be a great browser, or at least efficient. The speed of the browser is decent if you are in 3G. I have not had any issues looking at video's on YouTube or going on Facebook's mobile site however you will not be getting onto any non-mobile sites very easy. That being said, there is a rumor that Opera Mini is a great browser to download however I cannot confirm nor deny this rumor because I was unable to find an Opera Mini browser that was compatible with the Behold.AppsI cannot find any apps to download, period. They do not have a Facebook or Twitter app to download so that's something to consider if that's important to you. I have these apps on my Blackberry 9700 so it's not that big of a deal, although it would be nice to have these apps on both devices. I do not use games on my cell phone devices so I cannot attest to how they handle or where to actually download them from, for that matter.EmailThere is an email wizard to set up email accounts from AOL to Yahoo! to Comcast and Verizon. There is a nice list of carriers, but as this is not a smartphone, school and work email is not supported on this device. I have not set up any email accounts because my emails are all going through the Blackberry.Overall I recommend this phone to anyone who is looking for a nice alternative to a smartphone and want most of the benefits and not the daunting and intimidating features. I give this phone a 5 out of 5 because it does everything I am looking for and a little more. If you want to have a more in-depth analysis of the features and see how it handles with other users, go to YouTube and look up Samsung Behold Reviews. This is also useful if you are trying to decide between a few other devices.

By T-MILLZ
When this phone arrived, I was a bit unsure about it because of the generic box. Also, the packaging was somewhat mediocre. But overall, this is a great phone. The delivery was FASTER then I expected. It may have taken 2-3 days time. The device is touchscreen and it supports a micro-sd card. It can play music, store photos, videos... etc. If your with T-Mobile, all you have to do is a quick SIM CARD switch and your set. If not, you'll may have to pay an boot up fee of some sort since your not currently on a T-Mobile contract. If your just trying to upgrade to a newer phone, I highly suggest this one. I am pleased with my product.

Not Unlocked
By John B. Rogers
This phone was for my wife to use in Europe, which is why we wanted it unlocked. However, when my wife was on her trip she found that the phone was locked. I would have rated this 5, but it cost us money to get the supposed "unlocked" phone unlocked. Apart from this significant and unexpected inconvenience, the phone is pretty nice.
