| Features | Review | User comments | Write a Review
 Samsung Serene is announced in 2005
Design
The black and white display is ideal for text, messages and simple pictures like logos and picture massages.The display resolution 240 x 320 pixel ideal for small and smart phone.
The left side of the unit holds a spacious volume rocker, while on the other side we find a dedicated camera button.There is nice LEDs which notify users of new messages, active network and missed calls. This is not common for all Samsung handsets and is not necessary to pick up and activate the device to see whether any alerts are waiting.
Ergonomics
The Serene is not comfortable for hold in ones hand because it is too wide.Sporting a simple and user friendly menu in style with other recent Samsung handsets.The plastic keypad has good placed keys, giving it a cheap feel while oddly designed buttons, with the comfortable center keys, make the phone easer to dial.And last,but not least, a simple two-way navigation buttons centered below the display.
Features
In the WAN department, the Serene boasts healthy support for Tri-band 900/1800/1900 MHz, as well as GPRS, SMS, and a range of applications such as Java MIDP 2.0, 12-channels polyphony, all of which laptop and handheld users will be pleased to learn is a breeze to utilize either by means of bluetooth high speed small range wireless device.GPRS support is the fastest way to download files with your mobile, and spacious phone book.
As previously mentioned, the Serene is also equipped with a 0.3 megapixel camera support for picture-taking .
Performance
Audio quality on the Serene was crystal clear, and signal quality was good. The removable 800 mAh Li-ion battery is rated for 3 hours talk time or 250 hours standby, which is quite low given the battery's theoretical capacity. Charge time is about 120 minutes.
Availability
The Samsung Serene is now available throughout Europe in some language version.
Conclusion
Samsung Serene is a beautiful phone to hold and use, and it's quickly won our hearts. The typical Samsung design flair is present in abundance, with all the requisite consumer features to back it up.But love doesn't notice such little flaws. |
