Samsung T229 Red (Unlocked Tri-band) Gsm Cell Phone (US Version)

The Samsung SGH-T229 has satisfying call quality and a decent feature set that includes Bluetooth and a speakerphone.Though the SGH-T229's feature set is hardly unique, its design shows a few unique touches. Its front flap is bright red, while its rear face is basic silver. It's an odd combination in our opinion; we'd prefer that Samsung wrapped the entire handset in red. The external display is set slightly off center, which we've never seen before. We can take or leave such an arrangement. It doesn't hamper the phone's usability but it certainly makes the T229 stand out. We'll leave any strict judgments up to you. The monochrome display is rather small but it shows the date, time, battery life, and signal strength. Photo caller ID isn't supported, but you can use the screen as a view finder for self-portraits. You can change the contrast, but no other options are customizable.
