by Suzer Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 100, Apr 27 '03
Pros: Cute, stylish, very good reception, feature rich

The sad story. I was so happy and satisfied with my Kyocera 2135.

Alas, an incident occurred where the phone's antenna had an unpleasant interaction...

OK, I can hear you stop asking already!

by Abraxmed , Jan 24 '04
Pros: Good reception, relatively cheap, won't break and Verizon has a huge coverage area.
Cons: Limited extra features like new rings. No camera or color screen.
I was an avid cell phone hater for years. I thought they were stupid and useless. That was until I bought a pager. It was sooooooo annoying to get pages when I was away from a phone. Especially when people would page me, and than when I ...

by Romilayu , Jul 01 '03
Pros: Sleek design, light-weight, clarity, great colors, external caller ID

Possibly, as another reviewer said, the last great non-color phone is indeed the Samsung SCH-a310. T ...

The last great phone without a color screen

by college107 , Apr 13 '03
Pros: Call Quality, lots of features including a Planner, Durable, E911, built-in answering machine
Cons: A few quirky design flaws, ring options, menu system is more complex than needed
I purchased a Samsung A310 in November of 2002. I consider myself a light user, but I like to use features to the fullest. This is a Verizon Wireless exclusive phone although I think that it could be used on the Sprint CDMA network.

Average phone with poor features

by outofline , Jun 08 '03
Pros: Web access, large screen, external caller ID
Cons: Poor selections of ring tones, weak volume, lack of customization
I wanted to like this phone. I picked on up for my girlfriend and myself when we switched to Verizon. Unfortunately I now miss my old Nokia 3360.

The Samsung SCH-A310 just comes up short in my book. It has poor call reception, average...

A good phone for people who simply use a phone for talking

by rwcat , Apr 09 '04
Pros: Reliable, durable phone with no wasted frills. Long battery life.
Cons: Somewhat difficult menu, minimal ringtones.
I bought my SCH-A310 in Jan 2003 (13 months ago) and it has been great. I like the flip-phone design and this one is sturdy. This is my first flip-phone because I always thought I would break them. Then I got tired of trying to fit a larger phone in ...

Samsung A310 - Looks can be deceiving.

by slofiend , May 09 '03
Pros: Small, cool silver color, external display, awesome blue backlight
Cons: Poor wallpaper displays, horrible ring tones, no download capability.
I went looking for a new cell phone about six months ago and saw a lot of options, when I found the A310 I was amazed at how sweet it looked, how light it was and above all I loved the completely blue backlight keys, and screen. It had a vibrating body,...

Don't Do It

by ann13820 , Jun 28 '04
Pros: Cute, fits easily into pants pockets, makes you look and feel cool. That's about it.
Cons: Defective casings, horrible ring tones, buggy interface, functional nightmare, useless documentation.
I really wanted a small flip phone that I could stick in my front pants pocket or slip into my purse without adding a lot of extra weight. Physically, this phone fit the bill. And it truly looks cool. But that's where it ends. Both my husband and I have ...

overall a great little phone

Pros: Virtually everything, except...
Cons: the ring tones are revolting & you can't download replacements.
DH & I had StarTac's for years, then his was dropped one too many times & needed to be replaced. I like for us both to have the same phone, so that we can share accessories. The verizon store was having a 2/$50 special on another phone, which was sold...

by weezul1031 , Mar 11 '04
Pros: color screens, individual ringtones, several #'s per entry
Cons: poor battery life,no download ringtones, games, flimsy flip part
This Samsung SCH-A310 mobile flip phone has all the capabilities in a cellular phone that I wanted. Now I know that it's cool that you can take your number anywhere now with all the mobile companies, but what you need to find out, is if they take your ...

Perfect for spies, commuters, and Howard Dean

by beegs , May 19 '04
Pros: whisper mode feature, caller id in flip with customizable colors
Cons: ringer, menus, reminder tones
This phone has one utterly fantastic feature: "whisper mode." Mine is set to use it all the time. I can whisper, talk normally, or shout, but I always sound the same on the other end. This means you can speak on the phone virtually anywhere and in any ...

by marble03 , Mar 01 '05
Pros: Alarm, calendar, voice-dial, light-weight, color changing front, and front display caller ID.
Cons: Battery doesn't last the time stated and no ring plus vibrate feature.
I am through with this product. I have had two phones of the same kind and it has changed my mind about flip phones. The first phone I had lasted one year and then the hinge broke from normal wear and tear. I replaced the phone through my insurance ...

by davigna16 , Jul 15 '03

Cons: Ringtones are enough to make you want to throw the phone away.
