"I love my Memoir. The phone itself is great and I just think I will not be happy with another phone as this one has what I need without being a smartphone and requiring a data plan. I trust the Samsung cells as they have been long lasting. I will take an updated Memoir when it comes available. I have dropped my phone on concrete many times over. The battery has flown out when it hit the pavement. I am still using it. But since I drop it in my bag everyday and it gets tossed around in there it has some scratches so would like another phone. I have looked for something similar but to no avail."
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color

"I love this phone. This phone has 8.0 MP camera that has built-in xenon flash. It's great for listening to music because this phone has built-in speaker. This phone also has Tele Nav GPS navigation application installed for driving directions. What I didn't like about this phone is that there aren't that many applicaitons that is made for this phone."

Powerful and stylish camera phone

PostedJuly 15, 2010
"I've enjoyed this phone very much. It is sturdy and well-built, though I do try to take care not to drop it. The camera works very well. It takes good quality pictures, comparable to my dedicated point-and-shoot camera, although of course it has no optical zoom (instead, zoom "with your feet"). The operating system software works well. I have found the text messaging UI can't keep up with very fast typing, so try not to type too fast and furious. For a phone with a big screen, and that is able to process the kind of images that come from an 8-megapixel camera, I've been impressed with the battery life. A neat feature I didn't expect: the LCD screen backlight switches off when I hold the phone up to my head to talk, and then turns on again when I want to look at the screen again! I do feel the phone was rather pricey, considering it is not a "real" smartphone, but as I write this review, T-Mobile no longer even sells it at their online store, or in my local corporate retail store. Bottom line: I like it."
"i have been using this phone for 6 months and it is just an amazing piece of hardware. The camera is of course the highlight of this product. It functions just like any other digital cameras out there with, the qualities of the shots are remarkable. Other features such as the music player, web browser, and IM are comparable to most phones on the market today. However, I don't think the touch screen keyboard will suit everybody, especially the heavy texters but it still manages to get the work done at least. There were a couple of times where the phone just hanged and you have to restart the phone again. Furthermore, photos are slow to load especially if you have a lot of them stored. All in all, it's a really good phone and a camera, it performs basic functions really well too. Wi-fi would have been great too."

"If you want a phone that does it all, you have surely found it! The Samsung Memoir is the total package. It's camera feature takes great photos, the mp3 player allows you to make any track you add into a ringtone, and the phone gets very good reception. The only complaints that I would have and I think those would be with my carrier would be the web. It doesnt necessarily do the things that I want it to do. I absolutely love this phone and I highly recommend it to you. It's three gadgets in one!"

"I purchased this phone as a result of being fed up with the run of the mill & cheap phones. Not disappointed... This phone has been completely submerged in milk and water, thanks to my 5 year old daughter. And in addition, cheese form inside, on the electronics due to the milk submersion Been thrown around, stepped on, dropped numerous times...
and still going like the energizer bunny."

"I have had this phone for about a year. I think it is this best phone t-mobile has had yet. I wish it was a litle faster in the downloading. The camera and video are both excellent. The main problem is when you use the camera/video it sucks the battery dry VERY quickly. I take a second battery with me where ever I go. It has very clear sound and is easy to use. The only problem I have had is some times it does not hold the settings for the camera, so you have to check the settings after turning the camera off and on again. It has a voice smplifyer in it if your party can't hear you it will amp yuour voice (i have never used it). I would recomend this phone to anyone."

"I have used many Samsung devices and most recently used the Behold. Whereas the behold was slow the memoir is extremely fast. Was looking for a higher mega pixel camera and not only did I find a better camera but also possibly the best phone I have used. The memoir is well worth the money if you are looking for a camera and music player in one. Currently traveling out of the country and using the memoir as my all in one device. Camera, music player, calendar, videos, internet and much more."

"In advance i opoligize for spelling mistakes
My favorit things about the phone are -Best Camera Ive Ever Used -GPS Is Amazing -Media Player Is Simple But Effective -Love The Speed Of The 3G conection
Problems With The Phone -Only Capable Of One Thing At A Time -Cant Even easily Access My Email -Miner problems with placement of keys on horizontal keybored -Not a super txters friendly phone
-Features- Not Many, A+ For What Its Got
The features it has are amazing, but it is extreamly lacking in features. The phone is designed around the camera/video camera, music/movie player, the phone itself, and GPS if you choose to subscribe to it. All four of these features are beautifly designed, and i could not have asked for anything more from them. On the other hand, if you want your phone to do anything else your looken at the wrong phone. They have made rather lame atempts at incorperating email, alarm, and a few other useless apps. There isnt much to say, cuz well, There arnt many feautures.
-PREFORMANCE- Good With A Few Problems
As far as preformance goes, it transitions relitivly smoothly between splications. A few problems i have are miner but anoying. Even thoe it is designed to be a camera, just as much as a phone, once you have alot of pictures on your sd card, it takes a few seconds to open the pictures folder. This seems to me like something that should be smoothly designed to function speedly, considering the high capabuilitys of the camera. Also, if you are a heavy txter, such as me(18,000 txt a month), your message box will ocationaly glitch in a few difrent ways. Simply closing the messanger windo and re opening it will normaly fix the problem, but ocationaly you have to restart the phone. Some of these glitches include, but are not limited to: -Txts dont open when clicked on -Names from phonebook nolonger show up, just phone numbers -Cant deleat txts without reseting phone after you have cleared them a few times
-Design- Sturdy, Strong, Sleek
Thrue my many phones i have used, and broke, this is byfar the most well designed phone i have ever used. In the 4 months i have had the phone, it has been thru some rather interesting tests of sturdyness: -Dropkicked across a room and into a wall -Puched down to concreat -Slid down a roof, off the edge, down 10ft to the wood patio -Constantly used in shower -Dropped on tile constantly As you can see, i put phones thru rigures durabuility tests. You can deside for yourself if it on purpose or accident. There are a few miner scratches, but nothing worth mentioning. At first i was upset about the part were the lense sticks out the back, but this proved to be a verry necesary feature. The tiny bit of bulge that is there astranomicly protects the lense from scratches or damage.
-Value- Call Me Cheep
Wile i consider this an outstanding phone, i donot think it should cost as much or more then smart phones. Its is the best phone, that was not a smartphone, I have ever used. Due to the lack of aplications, it dosent require a price tag as high as the top of the line smart phones."

"I have a personal affinity for samsung phones, but this phone save its camera has been a dissapointment. I have experienced several issues with it since I bought it. ranging from its "back" button not responding, its shutter not opening, to more recently its Touch screen not responding. I searched online and this is a known issue with this phone. However since I'm passed my warranty I can not return this phone. Samsung dropped the bar on this one. sad. Hopefully their upcoming phone is nothing like this."
