Samsung E2252 Review
Samsung does know how to keep its fans intrigued and this time with Samsung E2252 it has shown how technology and art blend together. From the looks of it, it sure is a simple candy bar phone, but that’s not all. It belongs to the Samsung Duos family also featuring ChatON, which means this phone means serious socialization.
The hardware is not that beefed up, but still it does the job. The smooth curvy body, vibrant 2 inch TFT screen and soft keys all define the presence of Samsung E2252. In addition, it is quite lightweight weighing below 80g. Still, it packs a 208 MHz CPU in it making moving around the menus a little more responsive. The internal memory is limited to 20MB, though extendable through a microSD card slot upto 32GB, which is a good move. It would have been better not to place a camera than placing a VGA one on the back of it, and don’t expect much from it either even if it is there. Still, the overall shape and features are lovely.
Coming down to the interface, much of the things are the same with same old menu layout and color themes. The sound quality from the loudspeaker is not that impressive, however you are going to love the quality from the headphones. In addition to this, the voice quality and signal reception is quite reliable. However, the GPRS is lousy. First, there is a lot of fuss connecting to the internet and once it is on, it is like going through hell using it. Samsung E2252 comes with SNS and browser integration along with ChatON, but it is not much of use. Still, one thing that you are going to adore about this phone is its battery life, which does lasts over 2 days even with above average use.
Overall, a nice low cost and sleekly designed dual sim phone. However, when it meant socialization, it went overboard with the claim.
