Product Description
Design and Highlights
How about a design that offers a great price-feature ratio? The Samsung M240 for Sprint comes with awesome features for the dough it makes you dish out. You will love its cool way of simplifying everyday chores. For instance, access its speakerphone or voice dialing option for a handsfree conversation. What’s more, you can literally stretch your tête-à-tête to an unending length all thanks to its battery life that offers a 6.5-hour talk time! The good-sized keys will make you fall in love with typing all over again. Multimedia messaging reaches a new dimension too on the M240 (keep track of conversations with its threaded text messaging format). Now how cool is that!
A no-nonsense blueprint comes to fore as you handle the Samsung M240. Although at first glance it may seem slightly similar to its other newly-launched Samsung siblings, it is a tad different. The sophisticated pewter-like silver and black exterior is streamlined and palm-friendly. At 1.9 x 3.6 x 0.7 inches this flip phone weighs a mere 3.0 ounces making it great for nifty pockets. Beware, sometimes you may feel like tossing it without care! The textured back is something to rave about too (gives you this unfailing grip). The curved sides boast the 2.5-mm headset jack and the micro-USB port for your additional fittings.
Display
The Samsung M240 comes with vertical display which is a whiff of fresh air (after all the earlier monotonous squarish or rectangular ones). It adds to M240’s clean-lined design appeal. You can set the date, time and numeric caller ID on this view slot. Its nearly 2-inch, bright TFT-LCD color main display supports over 65,000 colors and delivers great picture, color and graphic quality. This obviously means all your off-the-Web images are vivid and radiant. The menus too are user-friendly and alterable. You can tweak the backlit time, the font size or the brightness factor to personalize the phone. Last but not the least, the menu offers a choice in languages—English or Spanish. So if you are a globe-trotter and a linguist, let this feature work wonders for your image.
Navigation and Keypad
The phone’s user interface lets you activate functions with a quick push of buttons. Samsung M240 comes with myriad keys, which are touch-sensitive and intuitive. Its smart toggle key and roomy alpha-numeric keys let you have a way with style and functionality in one breath. Customize the toggle by creating your own shortcuts (to apps, messaging or contacts) and navigate effortlessly. Furthermore, the keypad comes with this excellent predictive text (T9) technology that makes sure you do not go wrong with messaging anywhere, anytime. Typing or navigation at night or in the dark is a cakewalk too, kudos to its bright backlighting. What more can you wish for?
Personalization
In addition to design and navigation, the Samsung M240 allows phenomenal customization. You can make the phone an extension of your personality. Adjust the call settings according to your choice. Choose from a range of ringer profiles, select one of the 32-cord polyphonic ringer tunes (literally one for everyday of the month!), assign photos as caller IDs or make call groups to simplify your work. Clock and calendar styles can be transformed too. You can even have a blast with the screensavers, alert tones and welcome notes.
Strengths
An ample phonebook capacity defines the Samsung M240. You can store up to 500 personal and professional contacts. There is room for entering five additional numbers, an e-mail address, postal address and personal details under each contact. Moreover, its built-in GPS services support with E911 emergency location compatibility will definitely hike up your sense of security. Its other advantages are voice dialing and recording for handsfree and hassle-free communication. Choose any of the Sprint’s voice, data premier, talk and everything plan options to slash costs. Another good feature is availability of organizing tools like memo pad, calculator and what have you!
Leisure
When a CDMA phone offers lightning-fast internet downloads, what more can you ask for? With the Samsung M340 you can satiate your creative urges by downloading hip wallpapers, ringtones, games (demo versions of a few java titles are pre-loaded) and other interesting apps. Customize the graphics to make them your own. Save your favorite ones as menu backgrounds and screensavers. Utilize one of the many options and plans to request additional services.
Messaging
This flip phone facilitates easy messaging. It boasts threaded chat-style viewing of short text messages (SMS). You can view this thread on the screen in one go! For news, shopping alerts, weather reports, stock news and more, surf the mobile Web. A tip: Use this feature to send a few downloaded jokes, quotes or still images to your friends and family. Of course, you may have to use Sprint messaging plan options to optimize costs. Seems like this simple phone is certainly all set to rock the world of simplified cellular phones!
