I was looking for a basic /entry level phone. But I was pleasantly surprised with the performance and features. I am learning something new every day I use it! Great sound quality, touch screen, keyboard. Maybe the name should be changed to "surprised " instead of Brightside.
I love this phone. This is the smartest basic phone I have ever had. Its as close to a smart phone as you can get without actually having one. You don't have to have a data plan but you can still access 3G and get online, friend networks, and get basic phone games. If you don't want to access these all the time then you don't have to have the data package. If you do want to use it all the time I would suggest a smart phone so you can view websites better. If you just want to access the web for a couple things in a pinch this is great. I like the calendar feature. The alarm is simple to operate and get to. All the features of this phone are easy. The only thing I was dissapointed on was the camera. Pictures taken outside are pretty good, but inside they get blury if your subject moves. I do like the speaker phone, the speakers are loud and I can hear the caller clearly in the car. It is a little slippery so I reccomend getting a cover, much easier to hold onto. I do wish I could add a background, its perminantly on the menu. But you can add a background pic to what I guess would be called the screen saver. Its not a big deal to me, but some reviews I read online it bothered them. That was the only negative thing I found online. Bottom line, the phone is amazing!
This phone is meant for people who wants to talk and text. Despite the boring games, this game is very well crafted for texting. It has very comfortable buttons, and is very fast with the sending, The camera isn't too great (considering its only 3.2 megapixels), so don't let the advertisement fool you. The screen is very clear and bright, so don't worry about the sun messing up your view. The speakers are very loud and clear.I've dropped this phone over 20 times on wood, carpet, concrete, ect. I truly think this phone is unbreakable. The durability is jaw dropping. The phone is pretty light, although you can feel some weight. Overall, this phone gets a yes by me. Its totally worth it and meets my requirements. I hope to get future updates in the future.
A note before I start, this is NOT a smart phone, so if you're expecting that, you will be disappointed. However, this is probably the closest feature phone you will find to a smart phone right now. I just got the Brightside a few days ago, and here's what I think so far. Overall, it's pretty easy to use. I like that you can switch the view from the "grid menu" (that is not customizable) to the "short cut menu" that includes favorites (allows for 1 touch dialing/texting) and that 8 celled grid is customizable. I like that the micro sd card slot is behind the battery case, keeping it safer than the tabs on some of the older phones did (as they could break off). I like the locking feature on this phone. I feel like it's easy to use and the phone won't be activated and waste battery power if you bump the screen or any of the buttons except for the lock or the power buttons. Call quality and texting all seem to work like any other phone. This is my first touch screen phone, but so far I like it. Sometimes it is more responsive than I'd like (and occasionally I have to hit a button twice), but this is most likely user error. This touch screen is responsive to your skin rather than to pressure. You don't have to push hard, but you cannot use the touch screen while wearing gloves. I do not use this phone for the internet (in fact, I have the internet blocked on my phone because I don't want to be charged for accidental usage), so I can't say anything about it's internet capabilities. However, between work and home, I've never lost my 3G signal that is always displayed above the service signal bar. The pros for this phone: + Ease of use for any tech savvy person (may be confusing at first for first time users) + Has touch screen + Has physical side out qwerty keyboard + Includes driving mode (reads name of caller/texter and text message) + Custom alarms available + Picture quality is decent compared to other feature phones (not smart phones) and can go to full screen + Favorites option available in short cut menu (as opposed to grid menu) and speed dial available The cons for this phone: - No customization with pictures. Your options for displays of the grids only come in orange or green. Other colors would be a start, but you cannot have a custom picture as your background (except for the screen you have when your phone is locked. - When phone is on vibrate mode, it will vibrate 3 times for a text message. I keep my phone on at work in case of emergencies, so I want to hear it when I have a phone call....but if it's a text, I don't need to look at it immediately. When it goes off 3 times, I think that it is a phone call. It's also annoying when I'm in class and my phone vibrates that much for just a text. I don't know if this is just a Samsung thing (my Intensity II did the same thing) or what because none of my other phones have vibrated more than once. Either way, I find it really irritating. - T9 feature for word suggestions covers up part of the text when the text is long. - Is easily switched from picture to video mode. I've missed out on pictures because I didn't realize it was set to video (which I've not used on purpose yet)
This is a feature packed "basic phone" but samsung still has work to do. It is very much like a smartphone w/out the high price tag & it features a HTML web browser. Heres my complaints that i hope they will address: 1. those stupid black shaded bars that appear behind the Clock & Banner's, u cant turn them off (no matter what samsung tells u, i tried everything suggested & even got a different phone) SO ANNOYING 2. nobody knows what the "transition effect" actually does, i can find No difference's On/Off 3. even w/Mobile email alerts OFF it still alerts me w/icon every time i get a new email 4. ONLY 2 Themes....Orange or Green (yuck)
I purchased this phone June 1, 2012 to renew my phone Contract. The phone I really want brought back is th EnV phones. This phone does look like a smart phone without the expensive DATA plan. I am not happy about a few things 1. The wallpaper being the Menu BAR? Really, I liked my old phone when I could put my Grandchildren on it. 2. The CAMERA can not zoom when taking pictures---What camera does not zoom today--OH right the Samsung Briteside. 3. when the phone is locked for the touch screen, I have my Grandchildrens picture only to see this UGLY smoked colored bar right over their beautiful faces. Please update your software to fix these problems. 4. not sure about the alarm not working, have not used it, but I am sure it is like the othere phones....not working properly.
Day to day the phone is fine. The only issue we have encountered it is callers complaining of their voice echoing back to them. Verizon said it was a known issue & replaced the phone. I wish there were more customizations for the UI, but its a basic phone so...
I might recommend this to a friend, but only after explaining the negatives. It's not a top level phone, in my opinion. It could have been great and is only so-so. I have had this phone for two weeks. It was an upgrade from the 820, which I loved. However the 820 battery was failing and I got talked into the 380. PRO: The screen is bigger and wider than other QWERTY phones I have used. However, comments you may have seen about the lousy viewing angles on the screen are accurate. I bought an anti-glare filter and it seems to help. CON: I was told this phone had a very responsive touch screen. I have found it to be less than responsive. I frequently have to hit "buttons" several times to get the phone to react. When buttons are near the edges of the screen this is especially noticeable. I am female and have small hands. What men with big fngers do I have no idea, it's pretty irritating. PRO: The browser does indeed seem faster. One big plus for this model is email. I have two web accounts set up and the phone display provides a tab for each one. I can easily go back and forth between them. CONS: The phone is not particularly well organized. Navigation is not always intuitive. I don't like the grid home screen. Some customization is possible but not nearly as much as the 820 and you only get one screen to set up oft-used options. For example: speaker phone. Where is it? only within the call options, while in the call. You can't set the phone on speaker within sound settings, which is simply mind-boggling. BIG CON: Battery life, though advertised as when not in use up to 14 hours, has been noticeably poor for me. Even after a full charge, within a few hours the phone drops to 3 bars on the battery charge icon. In less than 24 I'm down to two. CON: The phone, when opened to the keyboard, seems top-heavy. I like the keyboard, it has a nice feel, but the function key has been put in the bottom left corner. Using it to get symbols then means the top heaviness becomes an annoyance. The Fn key should be higher up. PRO: it is nice to have the Star key for favorite contacts right there on the keyboard. But since one would almost certainly use the Fn key far more often, why aren't they reversed, location-wise? Calls have functioned fine, no drops so far. One design plus is no more of the little mini-clips you have to open out to plus in the charger or headphones, leaving them at risk of breaking off. The charger opening is in the bottom edge of the phone, very conventient. No clip. CON/PRO: The camera seems sort of okay, not great. An annoyance is when one takes a picture, the phone files it away. To do anything with it, such as send a message, the primary reason I take cell phone pics, I have to close the camera, go into My Pictures and wait for them to load, or start up text messaging and load the photo that way. If you like to have your own photo as wallpaper on the open screen, know that it has a big date/time bar right below the halfway point, vertically. Good luck seeing your loved one's face. You can't move it or make the font size smaller. This was the best choice at the time for a feature phone; if there had been another choice, even for higher price, knowing what I know now I would pick the other one. This phone is liveable but I won't ever get to the point of raving about it.
I will never purchase another Samsung phone. If I could give this phone a -150 rating, it would be too high. Hated it from almost the beginning. Thought I needed to get used to it. Whenever I touch the phone it calls voice-mail. I turn it off to put in my pocket or purse & it immediately turns on. Calls my contacts frequently without any help from me. It is always turning random things on where I need to exit out of. My previous phone was also a Samsung, had issues with it also. I should have taken a hint.
This Phone is the worst phone ever!!! The phone connects to the internet without you knowing. It freezes. I had this phone for two days and returned it to the store. Just a Complete Problem. I have had several Samsung phone and this one,must have been made with their eyes closed. I am sorry, but do not purchase this phone. Currently without a phone.
