Samsung SCH-N370
Average Ratings
A very reliable phone
Used this phone for 12 months for professional use mainly as I had already a personal mobile for home use.
I joined a company where someone from the sales dept. made intensive use of it prior to me, so I was the second user.
The Samsung was very reliable, as I dropped it many times, but it would always work.
Very good ringtone, so you can here in very noisy places, as it is with the hearing...I neved missed a conversation.
Battery survived hundreds of re-charges and could keep the phone on for more than 3 days in some cases; even recharging every night would allow me to use it fully the next day; only once in a year I missed a call for low-battery reason.
Display was of very good quality...Only recent problem was with the adress book software wich got stalled... Apparently a virus problem after receiving some unfriendly SMS...
I my view, it was a very good phone sold by Bell Mobility; unfortunately its selling is discontinued since a year.
As I left the job contract where I was using it, I decided to buy an identical SCH-n370 from second hand through eBay...I believe this phone can still render very good performance.
friendly lil phone
This phone has become one of my best friends. It's never given me any problems whatsoever. It picks up towers in places that other phones don't, and never cut's in and out. It is however, limited in options, such as games, graphics, and ring-tones. Overall, I highly recommend this phone to any entry level wireless user.

Maybe its the phone I received, but I can't stand this phone. It looks nice, feels nice, and has a pretty blue screen but beyond that, it's horrid. I travel extensively and find the call quality medium to poor, with many dropped calls. In analog, the phone heats up to a point where it melts earwax (probably a good thing). It actually hurts my ear physically after about 5 minutes of analog use.
It might be me, but I find the interface tricky to navigate, particularly the phone book. I am currently looking to get a different phone.
Not good at all.
It personnally did not own this phone, but my boyfriend did. The only good thing about it was the loudness of the ringtones...that's if they phone would ring at all. It would drop calls all the time. In one hour, he had gotten 4 calls, 3 of them dropped, even in high signal areas. The ring tones sounded like crap. We did some test calls one day to see how long it actually took his phone to respond to mine calling him. My phone had been ringing 5 times already and his hadn't even rung. We tried it again and it took 4 rings on my end before his would finally start ringing. The antenna kept breaking. His battery didn't even last a full 24 hrs. But what do you really expect from a free phone? Apperently, not much. Now he has the LG 5400A and he couldn't be happier. He actually smashed the Samsung into bits at work as soon as he got the LG.
Great phone.
I've used the phone for 3 months, and it's a great phone overall.
Audio quality, incoming and outgoing, is great.
Reception, however, is pretty average. Shame that a phone with such great audio quality doesn't have great reception.
The ringtones are very high pitched, which I hate. Every ringtone I've downloaded sounded horrible. I just stick to Ring 4, which is actually pretty good. (two short rings, then a long ring.)
The phone is very ergonomical.
All that for 50$CAD???
The phone is GREAT! I picked up this beauty for 50$CAD and I got a obviously higher end phone and 2 standard batteries in the box(standard retail package). The nice blue back light is a very nice touch too. You can feel that this phone not all plastic. If you know a bit about computers you can even find a data cable and software for sync this phone to outlook!!! 50$$$$$!!!!!
bells $50.00 phone.
The phone itself is fun, the menu keys are sometimes tricky to find a specific thing but once you get to know the quick key option you get faster with it. The Openwave internet browser is where I have the most trouble, its hard to get back to previous screens. The service area changes constantly which can be frustrating if your in a building but outside the service area will remain strong.
