Samsung Type-C Earphones - Black

Excellent quality headphones, equal to the original set of headphones you receive originally with your phone. Top quality sound. Much better than the OEM version. The sound is crisp & clear, no delays. Good headphones for those people who don't mind the wired variety- excellent back up for wireless headphones incase they run out of power - as these don't require power to work, they run off your phones internal power. Its always handy to have a wired set of headphones as a back up especially when travelling. We love PB Tech & how it has bought quality products to NZ at very fair prices. Thanks PB Tech

Broke after 3 months due to water damage

Be warned. Samsung advertise this as "Designed to be sturdy and reliable" In my case it was neither of those things. Purchased in June 2021. Stopped charging in September 2021 due to moisture detected in charging port. Sent it off to Samsung who advised, it had signs of water damage and as a result the warranty is voided and it required a new screen (battery included), main board and charging port. This damage appears to have been caused by watching a film in the bath . Dropping it in the bath with water. (*IP68 rating deems devices fit enough to withstand dust, dirt, and water. Water resistance rating is based on test conditions of submersion in up to 1.5 meters of fresh water for up to 30 minutes. Not advised for beach or pool use.) Please add bath to this list.) ... MoreBe warned. Samsung advertise this as "Designed to be sturdy and reliable" In my case it was neither of those things. Purchased in June 2021.

Spent £450 pounds when buying and now told it will cost 250 to repair the above after 3 months of use. Samsung do great TV's and Phones but the tablet that is advertised as strong enough for tough environments could not survive my bath.

Came on time

Came on time is the only good thing I can say about this product. The bass on your phone or device need bumping up to be heard, the mid-range is middling at best, and the only thing you're likely to hear is the treble. Now I tried all three sleeve sizes and didn't get a quality fit with any of them. I suspect that these might be fake and Bestbuy just doesn't know. I cannot stress enough that these are a horrible product. Steer clear.

Great phone for outdoor activities

This phone is an excellent option if you are someone that likes to go out running or doing other activities. When it falls down, don't be scared, it may have a scratch on the built-in cover but nothing else. I love this phone. But if you would like to have a phone that is great with performance and display quality with the 120hz, I wouldn't recommend this phone. But like I said if you're an adventurer then this is the phone for you. Thank you Samsung for doing such greath phones.

Great phone for the price

Its not as bad as they say, the cell works fine if youre banking, surfing and doing other stuff except gaming. I put a 512 Kioxia mSD in it and got plenty of space for saved clips, photos and other media. Samsung keyboard sucks as some reviewers point out, but eg. Gboard with a proper layout works very well. The camera is poor. In broad daylight it works but with less light the photos suck and the focus struggles quickly. The earpiece isnt the loudest but as a work phone you probably prefer a good BT device anyway. It lacks biometrics (fingerpring) but otherwise it is a good rugged cell!

It's not dead yet

I brought this phone from Samsung 12 months ago. I have had one issue with the USB port not charging but Samsung fixed it and returned it within a week. The phone has lasted well. I am a farmer so it gets bashed about quite a bit. I have bought a extra case for it for added protection which has helped save it the few times its fallen out of my pocket onto concrete. The water proofing works well, you can use it in the rain without the screen freezing, the graphics are good as are the speakers. I am running 2 sim cards and forever dropping in and out of signal, between WIFI signals and on and off blue-tooth but still manage to have 40% battery at the end of the day with moderate use. The only down side is the lack of wireless charging and the fact that Samsung don't ... MoreI brought this phone from Samsung 12 months ago.

Poor choice if yours has the same issues as mine.

Disappointing on so many levels. It's a Telstra Blue Tick phone but loses signals when all around it other phones are working. It has been returned under warranty twice but as the testing it passed confirms, signal strength reception isn't tested. So issues with service as well as denial of being not fit for use. Not sold through Samsung but via 3rd party online stores that then subbed out the sale to another entity. No way to have got a refund when first I realised how poor the phone was: at least this example anyway. Only phone in 26 years of having a mobile that has ever been damaged, dropped from seat height and the main camera is now out of focus.

Superb wee model

Bought mine about 18 months ago and it hasn't missed a beat since. Wonderful, compact wee model, durable, easy-to-use and great value for the price. Plenty of on-board memory for everyday purposes at 64Gb. Love the old-school removable battery and dual SIM features; also the fact it's so compact and fits easily in the palm of my hand or pocket, just as a 'mobile' phone should be. There really ought to be more models of this size - I'm not a fan of anything with a screen larger than 5. 5" as the screen becomes too prone to breakage and too bulky to fit comfortably in my pocket (if I wanted a tablet I'd go out and buy one instead). Honestly don't see where the haters are coming from. Best phone I ever owned

System error that won't clear

I've had trouble with this phone saying that there is moisture in the charging port even when the phone has been bone dry for a week. Due to this I cannot charge my phone unless I turn it off - what a pain. I've taken it into multiple phone repair shops and they have all said that the only thing they can try is to replace the internal charging port, apparently the spares are not readily available for this and they need the phone for a few days. Other than that I'm reasonably happy with the phone - my only complaint is that I wish the speaker was louder/clearer.

USB 2.0 is just not good enough these days!

The good: grippy, and nice ergonomics with the various programmable buttons The bad: (Google's fault, not Samsung's) - this new Android file permissions / access policy ("Scoped Storage") that does not let me access my own files is pretty horrible; I appreciated it's there for my own security... but that does not change that I am feeling locked out, and have had to come up with time-consuming work-arounds to manage my own content. The ugly: it's only USB version 2.0 - seriously, Samsung? This is just not good enough these days, particularly not for a phone that takes SD cards up to 1 TB!
