Answer 1

You might consider asking in the CELL PHONE forum.  Not too many people look in the LAND PHONE forum for questions about CELL PHONES.

Answer 2

In a nutshell: The E390 takes the extremely popular slider design that Samsung have virtually perfected now, and provides all of the most popular features that users expect from a phone in 2007 - a decent camera, an MP3 player, Bluetooth wireless connectivity and an expandable memory. It's very lightweight and compact (although not ultraslim) and is priced very competitively. If you like Samsung's slide design and are in the market for a mid-range phone, then this is the one.

The E390 is now no longer available, but the new Samsung Soul and Samsung Soul Pink are available from Dial-a-Phone.

The E390 is the follow-up to the very successful E370. This mid-priced range of slider phones from Samsung just keeps on getting better. Each Summer, Samsung introduces a new one with the same basic design but enhanced features. The E350 was the first in 2005, followed by the E370 in 2006, and now in summer 2007 comes the E390. The E350 was rated 5 stars by our users and the E370 was rated 4 stars, although we rated it 5 stars ourselves. So you can see that everything bodes well for the E390, and it doesn't disappoint.

The E390 is a classic slide design phone. Samsung have really cornered the market in sliders and have had plenty of time to perfect the design. The E390 glides smoothly up and down, and is a perfect example of why the slide design is so successful: 1) it's great fun; 2) it makes for a very compact phone with a large screen; and 3) it's just so easy to use, since you can unlock the keypad or answer a call just by flicking the phone open. The E390 is perhaps perfectly sized too - it's not ultrathin, but is a good size to hold in your palm, and is not as wide as the ultra-slim range, so it's much easier to hold. It's extremely lightweight too (just 84g) and has a lovely ergonomic keypad.

The display is an improvement over the E370. It's a bright TFT screen that's easy to read. It doesn't offer the 262k colours or high-resolution of the more expensive Samsungs, but for the price it's acceptable. The camera is also definitely not a high-end device, offering 1.3 megapixels with a digital zoom but no autofocus. It takes pictures that are good enough for viewing on the phone or maybe for printing if you've got good lighting conditions and a steady hand, but it won't replace a dedicated digital camera. It can also take reasonable quality video clips.

The E390 has a music player that is quite well featured, with support for playlists. Once again, we have to point out that this is not up to iPod standards, and audio quality through the speakers is a bit tinny, but with a pair of stereo headphones audio quality is good enough. A wireless Bluetooth stereo headset is available as an optional accessory. One of the key improvements over the E370 is that the E390 supports MicroSD™ memory cards, so you can expand the phone's memory to enable storage of 100's of songs if you like. Memory cards are pretty cheap - a 1 Gybte card costs under a tenner.

The E390 offers most other features that a typical user might want, e.g. mp3 ringtones, Java games, a speakerphone, fast EDGE internet access, multimedia messaging, email, flight mode and quadband. Battery life is good too. There's really nothing not to like about the E390.

We recommend the Samsung E390 if you like the slide design and are looking to spend under £150 on a phone. Before buying you should also consider the Sony Ericsson K550i, which is a conventionally-shaped phone but offers more for your money.
