Samsung Galaxy Ace GT-S5830I - Onyx Black (Unlocked) Smartphone

Galaxy Ace

The phone is fine and works very well. The screen is sharp and easy to read although the onscreen keyboard is a little small for my fingers.
The battery life is however poor and requires charging sometimes twice a day depending on use.Read full review

Galaxy Ace with limited use.

This Galaxy Ace comes with an almost full memory, therefore its impossible to download any further Apps, this means your limited use to whats been loaded into the phone. The additional Apps I needed for companies and communication cannot be downloaded due to the full memory, and removing existing Apps from the memory will effect the phone,s operations. The phone has originated from outside the UK and on start up need to have the language changed to fix the settings.
The phone is basically limited to making calls, sms and emails and with an added SD card photo's and video. In conclusion, to have access to my App requirements I should have purchased the Samsung S phone instead.Read full review

Good for calls and texts

Compact easy little phone for calls and texts. BUT phone memory abysmal - bear in mind it was discontinued a while ago. For example you won't be able to download WhatsApp messenger. Applications can't be transferred to SD card without reprogramming the device, which invalidates any warranty. Photos etc CAN be sent to SD though. Cheap and cheerful phone, but you get what you pay for!!Read full review

Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830i

Nice looking product with an affordable price. It's ideal if you wish to have additional features not found on ordinary mobile phones. It requires a micro SD card to hold photographs and music files which does add to the cost. It's worth downloading the PDF manual. You may find that certain features mentioned in the manual are not available on your version of the phone & some functions that are are not covered. The phone may keep presenting warning messages about lack of internal memory. This necessitates uninstalling any unwanted Apps & data. Additional Apps can be downloaded but you may find that some are incompatible with the version of the Android operating system that is installed.Read full review

cheap phone but old model

very old model so android is also very old. as a phone works ok. but had to get larger battery for it.another problem it kept switching off wifi and had to keep rebooting it, same problem on most old samsungs apparently.
all in all it did what i wanted at a very cheap priceRead full review

Cute Compact Samsung

Pleasant surprise, a phone that delivers more dependability, stability and longer battery life than more recent products. I only need Facebook messenger, and this installed flawlessly. So it is the ideal device for daily communications. Really rugged & well finished, a pity it's memory is restricted by limited capacity. Have installed a 16gb micro sd card, which can handle my photos and music. But 512mb RAM restricts adding any apps other than the default.Read full review

Great!!!!!!!

Love this phone. Is compact and easy to navigate around. Easy to use too. Can have all my photos and music and con acts (phone numbers and emails) etc all on one device which is fantastic! The best features in my opinion is the alarm clock, memory pad and calendar (for reminders etc).Read full review

OK for a beginner

Bought this product thinking it was new as advertised but, it's used. When I started it up it was in Russian and the memory was not good. I managed to convert into English and remove the number which was stored in contacts. Memory was hopeless so I had to buy an sd card to improve the overall functioning of the phone, which was an added expence and a bit of a nuisance. The phone works OK although a but slow. A new phone contract may still be a better option. Time will tell. A not bad phone for a beginner though as it's easy to use.Read full review
