The SAMSUNG SCH-U340 is a great entry-level phone for people that do not need all the bells and whistles; perfect for the preteen or grandpa. It is a simple flip phone with a VGA camera and texting, nothing else. Phone is compact and lightweight, has an internal antenna, with the camera lens at the top of the front flap. Fits nicely in pocket. External display (size of a postage stamp so grandpa had better use his glasses) shows date, time, battery life, signal strength and caller ID. Screen is monochrome and acts as an acceptable viewfinder for the camera, which does not have a flash. Internal display is about 2 inches and is a basic 65,000 color screen. Color resolution is okay but graphics are a little course, but display overall is respectable. The SCH-U340 uses a Samsung menu rather than a Verizon, which I rate as a plus. You can change the color, font style, contrast, and the backlight time. Controls are easy to understand. Keypad buttons are slightly higher than the surface of the phone with large backlit numbers. I like the fact there is a little separation between the buttons. Overall, it makes for easier use by a younger person or older person, who has a bit of a hand coordination problem. You can enter 500 contacts into the phone book with room in each contact for 5 phone numbers and 2 e-mail address. Your preteen will love this feature; grandpa will care less. Other features are vibrate mode, text messaging, voice command and dialing, calendar, 3 alarm clocks (good for the preteen so she is not late for class or to remind grandpa to take his meds), a calculator, notepad, speaker phone and “ICE” (In Case of Emergency contacts – perfect if grandpa wanders off.) Reception is good (this is a tri-mode phone), voices loud and clear. Speakerphone is a touch off, but adequate. Battery life is what you make it, like on every other cell phone. You should be able to pick up this discontinued phone for about $10.00 to $15.00. Do recommend you buy a new battery, as used batteries can be very chancy. For what it is, an older basic camera phone, I give it 3 stars out of 5.Read full review
The Samsung U340 phone is a great buy and a very practical phone to own and use. I originally wanted to find a replacement phone for my motorola phone (which I recommend for anyone with a motorola phone) and found this phone. i was little skeptical of losing some of the features that the phone carried, but it is very nice to have a phone that has a battery life longer then a few hours and sounds and works seamlessly. Functionally, the phone is great and has your most basic functions such as texting, world clock, camera, media gallery for photo effects, calculator, voice commands, and notepad. The only drawback is not having V-Cast or access to the internet for downloading games and ringtones. If your looking for a phone that is sleak, functional, and retains great battery life this one is for you!Read full review
I bought this on a whim, my phone died and I needed a cheap solution and fast without signing a dreaded contract. I got very lucky with my choice. I am very pleased with this Samsung "Snap" as it is called. I especially like the improved reception with this phone, it gets clear reception in areas my other phones never have, and this is very important when you live literaly in the northwoods of Wisconsin. I wanted a plain/simple phone, which this is, maybe even too simple-I would like to be able to set the primary buttons to what I want and there are little options, phone book is a little un-friendly as it doesn't show number without clicking into another screen. However, the reception superiority compared to that of other phones makes up for everything that it is lacking,and believe me I have tried SEVERAL other phones. THIS IS A VERY NICE LITTLE CAMERA PHONE.Read full review
