This was my second phone & I've had it for 4 years & have had absolutely NO faults with it at all.
It might not have Bluetooth & Video Recording, but it's really simple to use & easy to work.
Perfect for people who just want to text & call.

THIS PHONE IS PANTS, the battery is completely rubbish & the camera is blurry. It is infact an easy phone to use though & a very good simple, first phone. I find the design smart but it's boring.

I seriously don't get why there are so much bad comments about this phone on this page! I have used this phone for a year & it works perfectly & I am not bored of it! Most phones that cost as much as this phone don't have as many features, so it's really good for its price. I LOVE this phone & I am planning to use it until it stops working.

I like this phone it has never let me down no Bluetooth thank goodness it's compact & reliable.
Reviewer: Marcus - Leeds, UK
Date: 15th Jun 2007
Small, light & compact, even compared too many newer designs. With an excellent battery life. These are all important features for me when choosing a phone. Texting is OK but not as slick as my old Sony-Eric, & the BubbleSmile game has kept me entertained on those slow journeys to-&-from work.

It's alright no fancy features but looks good. Have had mine for a year now & I am getting bored. Easy to use & perfect for a first mobile, which mine was!

This phone needs Bluetooth & infrared apart from that this is the best phone to get.
Reviewer: Mohammed Jaffer - Dar, Tanzania

This phone might not be the best in the market, but it does provide the best in whatever it does. The VGA camera isn't too bad & I've actually taken lots of great family pictures with it. You can't expect a mega pixel camera with the price the phone goes for. I'm the kinda person who's always busy & running around at work so I've had this phone for 6-8 months now & I've been abusing it a lot. You could see the physical abuse the phones gotten if you'd hold it, but its still works great! It hasn't affected the flip mechanism in any way whatsoever. The best thing about this phone is that its really simple to use. I also own a Motorola RAZR V3i & Nokia N93 but everyone always sees me around with the Samsung. Why? Simple answer. You want to carry around a Phone that you can actually use & can depend on. Not a phone that depends on you for protection from scratches. Personally, I don't like to use a phone that id have to take care of 24 hours a day. Usually, high end phones like the Nokia & Motorola that I have need to be placed exactly right on tables & desks or wherever you place them to protect them from scratches or from breaking something inside them. But this Samsung? It may be a little outdated for some people. But I say that its one of the most dependable phones in the market today.

It is not a very good phone, but good design & you can not download (it is a shame).

I use it more than 11 month. This is another good samsung phone. Only bad point is the ringtone is very similar like other samsung phones.
Reviewer: Kurtiss Morritt - The Rogers, Shanklin, UK
Date: 7th Oct 2006
Its not very useful u can't even video recored, & it doesn't even have Bluetooth or inferred & it gets boring. All u can do iz take photos, az u can see I haven't much to say about dis phone cause it is useless.
Reviewer: Middle aged Mum - UK
Date: 3rd Oct 2006
I'm a grandma & wanted a camera phone I could work & understand to take photos of children & also to send texts as that is what I do most. This phone does it for me. I find that I keep pressing the down arrow & deleting some of my input but apart from that, it's great. Sorry Samsung probably won't do your street cred much good having a good review from a granny!
Reviewer: Winnie - Slovenia
Date: 29th Sep 2006
I had been using this phone for almost 1 year & it is really average only...As time goes by, the phone become more lackey... the input of the sms speed is slow & the keypad is always giving me a headaches. Limited memory too... Of all, the function in this phone like the games & etc is still ok. If u have limited budget for a camera phone, this X640 might be a consider :)
Reviewer: Edward Li - Australia

This phone is the perfect first phone for people of all ages! The design is modern & sleek & it comes with a lot of features. The battery lasts forever & the phone itself is very easy to use. The X640 has excellent sound quality.

Outstanding little phone its neat, light & compact. Very pleased with the integrated features.

Love it, so easy to use the only hiccup I found is when you open the clam shell you you don't get a chance to cancel the call as it answers automatically.
Reviewer: Amed Sing - UK
Date: 20th Jan 2006
I have had worse phones. It has got some nice ringtones & the camera isn't 2 bad either with the zoom & effects. The advantage of having 9Mb memory means you can save what you want. Its got an easy to use key pad which is handy when your trying to send a text message.
Reviewer: Adrian Westlake - Petersbourgh, UK
Date: 11th Jan 2006
Well what can I say about this 1, as Im always changing my phones. Not a great choice of games & no Bluetooth a bit disappointing but the good thing is that the battery last for ages so there is no need to keep putting it on charge.
Reviewer: K Brent - Preston, UK
Date: 9th Jan 2006
Not the phone I wanted but as my parents bought it for me there wasn't a lot that I could say about it. Had time to play with it & it is not as bad as I first thought, it is easy to use & the features are ok. It will do for now but I do plan to change it in the future & will try to not offend my parents too much, maybe I can swap it with one of my mates.
Reviewer: Lou Bennet - UK
Date: 9th Jan 2006
Love this phone. It has never let me down & it looks the part but at a fraction of the price.There is no camera but who cares about that, most of the cameras I have seen are not up to much use anyway. I love this phone & it is very reliable. Get it & c.

Perfect phone, will suit most peoples needs, if u want fancy stuff on your mobile u may be a bit disappointed, but for the average person this is a perfect little phone to own.
Reviewer: Freddy J - Weston-Supermare, UK

The sound is poor on this Samsung, the polyphonic ringtones are far too faint. Would not spend my pennies on this model.
Reviewer: Agnes Collins - UK

Like this phone very much & have no bad comments to make.
