Verizon Wireless Service
With this GPS-enabled phone, you'll be able to access the Verizon Wireless VZ Navigator service (additional charges applicable) for voice-prompted turn-by-turn directions, heads-up alerts, local search of nearly 14 million points of interest in the US (such as landmarks, restaurants and ATMs), and detailed color maps. And the Chaperone service lets you easily locate your loved ones from your Verizon Wireless phone or PC in real time. After defining a zone, such as an area designating a school or summer camp, you'll be sent an alert via text message when the Chaperone handset enters or leaves the zone.

Getting on the Internet is easy using the Verizon Wireless Mobile Web 2.0 package, which allows you to read and send e-mails, exchange instant messages and view your favorite web content on your phone. The Verizon Wireless Media Center wireless download service is also fully compatible with this phone. This pay-per-download service features application downloads, games and productivity tools. You can also personalize your handset with ringtone downloads using the Media Center service.

3 out of 5 stars Good phone but needs stiffer side buttons September 27, 2009

Reviewer:  J. Friede "john8791" 

This phone was the "free" upgrade from Verizon so I can't complain too much.

Pros: Good battery life, good reception and sound quality.

Con: This is a big one for me. The side buttons actuate if you just breath on them. Unless you pull the phone out of the case with the tips of your fingers to answer a call, you almost always press the button that mutes the ringer.

5 out of 5 stars Best Basic Phone I've Used December 29, 2009

Reviewer:  Troy K.  (Anaheim, CA) -

I am a cell-phone addict. I change my phone about every couple of months and have used everything from prehistoric Nokias to iPhones and now to my current phone, the Motorola Droid. However, the Samsung Smooth has been my most reliable and longest-used cellphone in about seven years. It is very simple to use, constructed to be extremely durable (I've dropped it many, many times), and has more features than you'd expect in an entry-level phone. It's lightweight and small dimensions makes it unobtrusive in the tightest of jean pockets. One feature that many don't know about is that you can read incoming text messages on the external display without having to open your phone. If you are looking for an inexpensive phone that can take care of your basic needs (calls, SMS, MMS) then you can't go wrong with the Smooth.

5 out of 5 stars GREAT CELL PHONE FOR SIMPLE USE November 2, 2009

Reviewer:  O. Bright 


RESEARCHED ENOUGH VERIZON CAPABLE CELL PHONE BEFORE CHOOSING THIS ONE. IT IS CUTE AND HAS GREAT BATTERY LIFE. ONLY NEEDS CHARGING EVERY 2 TO 3 DAYS IF NOT USED MUCH. BEING OVER 5O I DON'T TEXT OR DO A LOT OF OTHER ADVANCED USE. CAMERA MAKES VERY GOOD CLEAR PHOTOS. YOU CAN PROGRAM NICE KEYPAD DIAL SOUNDS.ALSO UNIQUE RINGTONE FROM 80'S DISCO IS MY CHOICE.

2 out of 5 stars Definitely not smooth! October 15, 2009

Reviewer:  Luigi  (NY United States) -

This phone is slippery, hard to open, side buttons get in the way, signal strength is weak (1-2 bars indoors) and reception has a tendency to skip and breakup alot (choppy).

4 out of 5 stars I AM HAPPY September 19, 2009

Reviewer:  C. Jarecki  (Seal Beach, CA, USA) -

I purchased this Samsung to replace my aging Razr. The first one I got had battery problems (heated up), returned it and got another. It is really cool, small and with excellent features. Two things, it is slippery to hold and not easy to open. These do in no way outweigh its many pluses, but wanted to give an objective review. Well worth the price or upgrade.
