T-Mobile SGH-339 by Samsung From T-Mobile: Size: 1.8 x 3.6 x 0.8 inches Note: I found talk time and standby times were much shorter when Wi-Fi was on. I recommend turning Wi-Fi off when not in a WiFi zone. The signal and actual phone performance is very good here in Key West. Friends who were looking to change phones and provider expressed interest in T-Mobile due to very poor service at their location when using another provider. I allowed them to test the T-Mobile SGH-339 by Samsung for 24 hours. They were amazed at the improvement. They purchased a contract with T-Mobile that included two of these phones. They called recently and were full of praise for the phone and service. My wife, who is a tough phone user, also found the T-Mobile SGH-339 by Samsung to be easy to hear and simple to use. Actual Wi-Fi and Cellular Tests I brought the T-Mobile SGH-339 by Samsung on a trip to South Carolina. I also took some photos in Key West. (See photos and videos on Flickr) Below are a few samples
The Internal Screen is so bright/white that it is hard to read as delivered. It becomes easily readable when you replace the default screen with a personal photo. Of course wallpaper is available from T-Mobile using T-Zones Internet service. My Album Audio Postcard is an easy way to share photo emails while adding a voice message or singing a song. You decide what your message contains and record it right on the phone. I created one with voice and sent it to our daughter, Bluetooth is available for file transfer and worked well. Using a USB cable is another option but the cable is not included in the box so standard USB cables will not work. It can be purchased from T-Mobile. Audio files play very well and the included hands free headset is very adequate. To see detailed features, accessories, and other details on the T-Mobile SGH-339 by Samsung Click Here. Even though this is a fairly basic phone I was very please with its features, look, and performance. If WI-FI sounds good to you I would recommend the T-Mobile SGH-339 by Samsung as a good choice. |

When taking a first look this seemed to be a very basic phone. Under the hood are some features that bring the T-Mobile (SGH-339) beyond the basics. The Reddish colored case is a head turner. The ability to move from Wi-Fi and Mobile (cell) calling is intriguing and worked well in my tests. The extra cost for unlimited T-Mobile HotSpot@home are minimal at around $ 9.99 per month. The 1.3 MP camera takes the usual good photos in available lighting outdoors but did not fair well during low light situations. The flash does help inside but I saw very little improvement when taking outside low light shots. Video was on a par with most 1.3 cameras.
