Samsung T459
$250.00
Released November, 2008
The Pros:Battery life is surprisingly long: even one bar remaining can get two days of use. Texting and IM interfaces are intuitive and quick to use with QWERTY keyboard. Robust: accidental drops rarely cause damage.
The Cons:Camera performs poorly in low-light conditions, grainy or dark images. Relatively high number of dropped calls, regardless of network provider. Minimal preset message tones, no customization of message tones.
