Nice but slightly lacking

I'm a big samsung fan and overall I love the t429, but it definitely has its faults. A great design, easier to dial/type than most other slider phones I've handled due to the slightly raised keys. I've heard complaints about the phone feeling flimsy and toy-like, although I haven't noticed that myself. It is lightweight but I consider that to be a plus personally. If the number you want is in your phonebook or the recent calls you don't even have to slide it open to use it which can be useful when your hands are full, mostly because sliding it open with one hand isn't always easy, that being the only slight issue with the design. The display is nice and clear, I've heard it doesn't have quite as many colors as some other phones, but I wouldn't have even noticed if I hadn't been told that, it looks great to me, just under direct sunlight though, it's very difficult to see, no matter what angle you hold it at. Nice camera especially for what it is, all the standard options, no video though. The sound is also fine, I haven't had any real problems with signal strength or loudness. As for features, it could have more, this doesn't bother me so much but I understand it's important to some people. You can't do as much in the way of internet, though there is instant messaging and downloadable ringtones and games, which there aren't many of to begin with. No video as previously mentioned, and one thing I actually do wish it had that it doesn't is voice dialing. This somewhat defeats the purpose of it being bluetooth enabled. But, besides those few missing features, it's a nice phone at a decent price. I'd recommend it.

This phone is a pretty basic sleek slider phone, it has really good signal and clear screen resolution. The camera cames out really good although it does not have video. But overall its a pretty decent phone!
