Expert Review

 

The diminutive M300 packs in a reasonable amount of features for such a low price, though the slow interface speed combined with a poor keypad may turn some people away.

Small, compact and lightweight; included VGA camera; FM radio and hands-free speakerphone; build quality

Battery life could be improved, spongy keypad and controls, interface speed

Samsung SPH-M300 review

 

In addition to the launch of the multimedia-centric Samsung SPH-M510 , Sprint also introduced the Samsung SPH-M300 this week for customers looking for a more basic and budget-friendly camera phone. The stylish and compact flip phone is equipped with a...

The Samsung SPH-M300 features a stylish and compact design. The cell phone also offers integrated Bluetooth and good call quality.

The M300's VGA camera produced poor pictures. Speakerphone volume is weak, and there's only 8MB of internal memory with no expandable media.

If you're looking for a basic and affordable cell phone for just making calls, the Samsung SPH-M300 delivers with style. However, if you want a good camera phone, look elsewhere.

Samsung SPH-M300

 

The Samsung SPH-M300 has an adorable oval shape, and though it's small it comes with a set of features people actually use. Measuring 3.5”x1.9”x0.7” and weighing only 2.6 ounces, the M300 comes in a choice of dark silver or misty-rose red (Any color...

Review: Samsung M300

 

Samsung's new M300 is an entry-level clamshell handset for Sprint that sports an attractive design and a solid handsfree feature set. Michelle runs it through its paces in this quick review.

Stylish design, Bluetooth, good voice dialing, color displays

No video, mediocre battery life, no good way to access photos

Samsung SPH-M300

 

From the minute I purchased this phone, it has been the shittiest phone ever! I have had Samsung phone is the past but this one tops the chart. The battery life is terrible, before the day is over it is down to one bar and as soon as that happens the...

Samsung SPH-M300

 

Upon first purchasing the Samsung sph-m300, it was very different look to it. A very sleek and unique design, not of your typical clam shell look. Since then, I've had no dropped calls and love the fact of leaving one voice mail for multiple people at...

Samsung SPH-M300

 

Samsung sph-m300 works as good as most others, but the charging port is hard to open, the speaker phone is too many steps to pull up and the battery life is poor.A basic, simple phone if that is all you want and don't plan to use it much.

fine for the price

 

I got this phone for 20 bucks after my other Sprint phone broke. I've had the M300 for over a year now and it's just now developing some issues. It sometimes freezes, closes out of texts while they're being typed and the keys don't always register....
