Samsung C3010S Reviews

I presented this mobile phone samsung C3010S which came with a highlighted linethe future of multimediawhich made me to buy it in the year 2011. It is the best suited pocket phone in a range although now days smart phones are in trend but those who are still pocket phones lover can go for this cool phone loaded with features, offers fm radio with a good signal strength, coloured display of 2 inches having many animation of slides too have a digital rear camera some how pictures quality is bearable and the external memory can be increased by 8 gb using micro sd. The battery backup is too good as a pocket phonebit the phone hangs little bit and takes time to process . I am using the Samsung brand from many years and trust me it provides the best services.

I used this fone for an year . . . at firstt it worked well. . it would hang up in middle some times when memory card is loaded for more than 900 mb n some minor back draws. . .but I liked it due to its fm recording facility .

Head phone length is somewhat small for me. It caused some inconvenience. After one year now its not able to read memory micro sd card. Cam clarity is better.

I bought this phone on last week in pune , it cost around 3, 500 including original samsung 2GB memory card and USB cable. This phone is very stylish and light weight phone. Music clarity is awesome, it has 5 equlizer settings, like pop, classic, jass but camera is not up to the mark, any how I am not going to use this phone as camera. Battery life also good, it has lot of features like bluetooth compatibility, GPRS & EDGE compatibility.

Only con is it's ear phone, it's unique earphone , we can't replace with another earphone.

Really it's a value for money, .

I bought this phone in Oct '09. It is a beautifully designed phone, with lots of features. The only thing that I found a bit troublesome is the camera, it's just a normal camera. Pics are not clear. For me, I was not interested in the Cam, so this was ok. If you are looking for a phone with the good camera, this one is not for you !!. But if you ant to own a stylish, value for money, good sound clarity, lots of feature phone, this is the right Choice.

The best part is that people won't believe me when I say that I bought it for 2400/-.

Go for it, you will not regret.

Regards,

Justo

I bought this phone from my own savings by skipping lunch for 2 months and cutting down on travelling by rickshaw, hence I feel proud for purchasing it.

Almost all Samsung phones possess these attributes i.e. good battery, sound quality and a value for money package with decent features. This phone is loaded with camera, music player upto 8gb and bluetooth at an unbelievable price of 3400/- Quality is not compromised though. Its available cheaper as it was launched in feb 2009.

Looks - its  slim at 12mm which is helpful as it can fit anywhere with ease. It has a contemporary look thats easy on the eye, slightly reminiscent of high end Sony ericcson mobiles. Its got a 2 inch widescreen thats not available in this price range. The ugly part would be the rear where its totally plain with a black plastic thats rough and gets scratched easily.

VGA Camera  quality is better than any lg phones as the picture is clear on zooming and the black part remains intact unlike others where black is filled with coloured spots and the clarity is vague. Picture quality is more than decent and is available with an array of options for different types of photos. However they are a bit lackluster and look too dull specially compared to Nokia. On computer screen they look more dull. :( Nokia seems  a bit more clear.

However, in standby mode that is the wallpapers and user interface, the pictures lack the sharpness of Nokia phones.

Battery life is average with 2 hours music, it continues to work for 1 to one and a half days but cant manage more than that. This is due to its paltry 800 mAh power. Thick Samsung phones have battery life upto 3 days as reported by my friends. In many cases the battery depletes quickly if you have kept a bright screensaver!

A WORD OF ADVICE -  always check the mAh value of the battery whenever you are purchasing a phone. Most Samsung phones are 800 mAh. An ideal phone should be minimum 1200 mAh. Hi end nokia phones - (E series) have 1600 and so on and so its not surprising that they work for a good 4 days. Videocon though provides totally downmarket quality and is best not to buy has a whopping 2000 mAh for almost all phones, they work for a good 5 days. 

Phone  works normally with a 2gb card. Its got 15mb internal memory, so its managable. A common error with most Samsung phones is it sometimes just switches off on its own suddenly! and then asks to format the memory card. By restarting, it all files are restored. But Its scary!  I have about 400 songs and it still has not slowed down which is a good thing specially when compared to LG.

This phone has a good keypad with wide buttons that make messaging very easy and quick like nokia phones. However, there is lots of network blockage and its a problem while sending bulk messages. Even while making calls you have to dial twice! This is irritating. 

This phone is best not for internet users as it is too slow and useless, I personally avoid mobile phones for using the net. Sound quality and MP3 player - mp3 player is really easy to use with many playlist options like in the I pod, Radio is equally good. So I mostly use this as a mp3 player than a phone.

Phone is really loud while talking and handsfree device is also audible and clear.

CONS

The only problem I had with my phone was that the left earphone that started making disturbances and there was a lot of distortion only within 10 days of purchase. The warranty proved useless as I was blamed for the malfunction. :(

The solution was that I purchased an Ear phone adapter for 250/- from another place which allows us to connect the standard 3.5mm earphone, this also was convenient as I could plug it in the car or any stereo system at any time. So I recommend that please buy this device as its quite helpful. This also has the best bass and blocks all outside disturbance that causes your own voice and footsteps to be heard.

Samsung gives very few options for personalization, less options for default wallpaper , Nokia is best in this dept as it provides many wallpapers and themes, ringtones etc The ringtone has to be the alarm tone here. Surprisingly, Alarm tone is too soft, only Nokia phones have the ability to wake me up. Also when you set a mp3 as your alarm tone, after its finished ringing, it reverts back to the default ’Samsung tune’.

To sum it up, its quite user friendly and there are other nice touches like mobile prayers and wallpapers of different Gods, mobile tracker etc: among other unique features. A total value for money phone thats suitable for a student.

This phone is just great. I bought it last year & I am getting great reviews from my friends, family about this mobile. The music of this phone is just unbelievable if we compare to its cost ie 3500 only. I think today what we want in our mobile phones; music, gprs, videos, movies, camera , easy keypads , games & orkut.

You will see all these things in this mobile at this low price what you want more. It has 1 mp vga camera, and in this you can access all the features without using your sim, I think that's great. It has 180 rs data cable but you can transfer your movies pictures from net by using bluetooth & gprs.

That's so simple.

After my old Nokia gave way, I was looking for a phone with MP3, GPRS, Camera & bluetooth. Initially I was told that I may not get a phone with all these features with a budget of Rs. 2900/-. After checking some other brands, I deicide to buy this phone because of following details.

Samsung C 3010 S is a multimedia phone.This Budget friendly phone has a lot of features and some of the features you find only in hi end phones like voice recording, FM recording, Panorama mode for camers and GPRS etc. At the price tag of Rs. 2900/-, this is a good feature loaded phone which is user friendly.

Looks:
