The Good:

With the very sensible sized keys and a 4 way circular controller it is very easy to use. At this phone you can use your own message alert tone (which was not present in earlier versions) and also you can install your own java games). The battery life is also quite good and it uses a SDHC card as well. The other features in the phone are basic one. You will get a 1.3 Megapixel camera on the back that can capture up to 1280 x 1024 pixels resolution of image. For music, Samsung S3100 does offer a built in MP3 player and FM radio for you to listen to the music. The quality is mediocre, nothing much to say. And for video playback, there is a video player that able to play MP4/H.263/H.264 format file.

The design is quite attractive because of its sleek and stylish nature. The front has the 2.1 inches TFT screen that shows 256,000 colors with the revolution of 176 x 220 pixels. One of the unique features is its BT Messenger which enables free instant messaging with other Samsung BT-enabled phones. Other than that there is a Shortcut Toolbar which lets you customize up to 15 shortcuts on the idle menu for easy access to your favorite applications.

The Bad:

The bad thing about this mobile is that except for the new messenger and the design it has no exciting new feature which makes it unique among all the other handsets of this type.

Performance:

The performance of this new handset is quite good. The voice quality is loud and pretty much clear. The internal memory is not up to the mark and the video display is also blurring. With the 1.3 Mp camera the picture quality is not so good and the ability to zoom is just normal. In other words we can say that the performance of this new handset is normal and you can’t expect something very fantastic in it as many others cameras with such features are available in the market.
