The Samsung F200 is an ultra slim mobile phone which will catch potential user's eye with its small streamline casing. The phone is slim & thin which comes with a user friendly swivel opening mechanism. The phone comes with a 1.4 Inch colour screen which when in the closed position covers the entire cover of the casing & when the handset is swiveled open the user can access the slim but useable keypad. The Samsung F200 will fit into the user's life beautifully, as well as fitting into the user's bag or pocket with ease. The handset comes in a choice of two colours either a luxurious red coloured casing or a bright blue colour. The F200 is small which only measures 19.8mm deep by 32.6mm wide by 89.5mm long & weighs a very light 76 grams. The phone works on a tri band network which allows the user to use their phone in Europe & the majority of the US.

The MMS message is quick & easy to create & allows the user to share a fun message with others. The SMS service & EMS service allows the user to create a quick message which can be shared between compatible messaging contacts. The messaging services on the Samsung F200 provide the user with a quick & convenient way to stay in contact with others.

I should say that this phone is not bad, with such interesting design. But the bad point is, it had to be fully open before you can answer the phone, especially quite unfriendly when you only have one hand to answer the call. Overall, I like it because I prefer non-camera phones. Cheers!

Simply said, in my eyes this mobile is wasted money.

Manual is the worst I have ever seen, you have no chance to copy a MP3 ringtone to the mobile itself, it can only be stored on the micro sd & only in the 'music' part. The built-in tones are rubbish & not worth hearing, they make you really ill. Also missing a voice command in any case when you try to use the phone in a car, you have to take it into your hands, very bad & dangerous.

Result: if someone likes a MP3-Player with attached phone, buy it. If you like to have a good phone with MP3 Player, buy Sony Ericsson or Motorola, with this one here, you will make a mistake.
