I have lived in 2 different areas where my Samsung SGH-E335 and my SGH-T109 both had poor reception.  I constantly had problems with dropped calls, poor call quality, etc...  The SGH-T109, which I was still using and still works, also had a very poor headset which I lost.  The replacement headset was even worse.  See my review at Wireless Solutions Earbud for Samsung SGH-T929 Memoir, SGH-A877 Impression, SGH-T119, SGH-T109.The SGH-T109 reception got so bad I finally had to replace it with this Nokia 2720 S40 unlocked phone.  I had previously called T-Mobile and they wanted me to sign a contract for another 2 years for yet another Samsung phone and, for some reason which I am not sure why, another SIM card.  BTW, I bought the Samsung T139 Prepaid Phone (T-Mobile) as a gift for someone else and it has the same problem, poor reception.  WHEN is Samsung going to make a basic flip-phone which has better reception?I took a chance and bought this Nokia 2720 S40 unlocked phone and it works... basically.  Now instead of having no bars, at least I get 1 or 2 bars and the other party can understand me.  The Nokia is also a better looking phone with silver buttons and a blue case.  Unfortunately, the Nokia, compared to the Samsung, has a strange menu system where it is difficult to find basic setup commands or the settings don''t exist at all.  Also, when I have the phone open, the timed backlight goes off and when I press any button to make it go back on, the button registers on the phone as a command, forcing me to exit whatever I entered.  I find this most irritating.There is no mention of a headset on the Amazon description page but a wired headset is included.  The Nokia wired headset is better than Samsung''s with clearer sound.  All I need is a basic cellphone.  I don''t need a worthless, lousy, 1.3 megapixel cellphone camera since I already have a Canon PowerShot SX210IS 14.1 MP Digital Camera with 14x Wide Angle Optical Image Stabilized Zoom and 3.0-Inch LCD (Black).  I''m not going to pay megabucks to access the Internet with my phone because I have a laptop and a desktop for that.  When I''m traveling, if I want to access the ''Net, I can get FREE access using my laptop and WiFi at most motels, many coffee shops, and many small restaurants.  I also do not use texting because I don''t want to pay 15¢ per spam message.  I use FREE emails instead.I hope this Nokia will last for at least 3 years.  I''ll never go back to Samsung cells again.  I doubt Samsung will ever get their act together regarding basic flip-phones.  BTW, Samsung doesn''t really like even remotely, partially (3/5 star) negative reviews of their products so they don''t always post them on their own website. They like positive, happy, reviews. Just wanted to let you know.See my PIC''s and notes in this product''s image section.
