Retro Chic. Par Down Basics. Simply said for this phone. Absolutely love the sleek compact design with all the nexessary functions normal person would require. No excess. No complaints. Was using the Nokia N80 previusly for 3 months, could wait to get rid of that phone. Horrible design and NOT user friendly. Delays, delays and lagging. And SOFTWARE problems. Just reinforces my dislike for NOKIA phones.
Its either Samsung or SONY these days. period.

im using my p300 for months now.... as of gary's comment, u have a good point there bro.! y are dis haters wasting their time posting some comments? maybe the problem was in their skulls? not on the phone.... second sumone ask if theres an indicator when u r using the leather battery pack... as of me.. im using them separately... if sum1 knows if its ok to use them simultaniously pls post a comment... but overall this phone rocks... im inluv with this thing! the looks the uniqueness, the simplicity, everything! (but the volume of tones) if samsung going to release a phone improving the tones and with a card slot, ill probably buy 1 again... f*#k the haters!

I have owned this phone now for about 2 months so thought i would post my comments.
There are many comments on here that i would take with a pinch of salt because they don't really hold any truth.
The looks.
If i am honest the only reason i bought this phone was because of the looks and more importantly its size. Yes it looks like a calculator but why is that a bad thing - and if you don't like the looks why are you even considering the phone and wasting everyones time posting that as a negative.
The phone is the exact same size as a credit card and the advantage being is you can take this phone out on a night and not have a pocket bulge like you would with other units.
I could have had any handset I wanted. I have access to any handset I want working for a network operator yet I choose this phone because it does everything a 'normal' person could want in a small form factor.
The negatives to me are primarily down to how the phone rings.
-The phones ringtones are not as loud as my SE K750i. This is probably down to the same speaker being used for the tones as is used for voice. Also because the phone isn't able to ring and vibrate at the same time you can miss calls. If you use the case you'll probably miss calls.
-The SMS tones cannot be changed.
- The phone is easy to scratch. I take good care of my phones yet there are plenty of surface scrathces in the metal. I assume this is because the metal is laquered. Anyone know if the phone can be polished?
One thing i would like to add is why are people commenting that the phone is slow at manually altering the network? I mean how often do people actually use the feature. If you are in the UK you should never need to use the feature unless you are roaming and for some reason don't like the network you have been defaulted to.

Yes this phone could be used on US networks as it is able to pick up networks on a 1900Mhz frequency.

Almost all features of the P300 sucks. I sold mine after 3 days of owning.........I was a sucker but not anymore!
This phone should worth only less than 100 euros at maximum.

Already on Verizon who doesn't carry this one. Don't care. I am absotively getting this one. Taking it to T-Mobile unlocked as soon as I receive it. Looks just like a retro calculator and size is terrific. Retro chic is IN! I believe the design is a stroke of genius.

I got my P300 a week ago. My only problem with it is that I cannot save phone numbers into the phone's memory, but just in the SIM. I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this issue. Actually, this is my 2nd unit. The first had the same problem and I returned it.
I have tried even writing to the phone memory using the PC software and the Outlook sync, but none work.
Thanks!

Oh and another thing the PC software that comes with Samsung phones is so near impossible to use, i'm amazed this was ever released!

I have the P300 which must say i was impressed with initially, the phone feels nice, easy to use. But there are some flaws to the design which I just cant live with. Firstly i like the idea of the battery in the case, but it makes the phone as wide as other phones on the market which seems to defect the objective.
The worst thing is when the case is closed it covers up the speaker so you can hardly hear the phone ring. I've had it next to me in the car, in my pocket and have many missed calls. the vibration mode is feeble, and you cant have vibration and ring tone start at the same time??? This phone has let me down, so I am getting rid!

Hi,
I have just purchased an E900 and waiting for it to arrive - but i have now found the P300 - not seen either of these phones yet, but may be regretting my decision to buy the E900 instead of this. Im from a Nokia background so unsure of the Samsung operating system. Can anyone offer any advice - should i sell my E900 before i open the box and go for the P300? I want a small, different and cool phone, im a high user and my phone goes everywhere with me - plus i love gadgets!
THANK YOU for your help and advice.
David.
