Samsung C3060R

 Samsung C3060r Discontinued
14th May 2009

The Samsung C3060R is a simple mobile phone aimed at those people who may struggle with over-complicated technology.

Using a combination of straightforward design, simplified menus, large text and lots of online help, the C3060R has a certain appeal. The menus have just five items on them to make them easy to use, and the C3060R isn't over-burdened with features either.

Samsung say in particular that the C3060R is suited to older customers, but the large fonts and clearly labelled keys may be useful for those with some visual impairment, and even the most ardent technology fans sometimes want a phone that is easy to use.

One neat feature is a red "SOS" button displays five emergency contact numbers which the user can then select from. If the SOS button is pressed down for a few seconds, then it will automatically dial the first number. This is a good idea, but the main drawback is that the button itself seems quite small.

It's a fairly normal looking phone, which is good. Many "easy use" phones look rather silly, but the C3060R looks just like a standard handset. The feature set overall is modest but useful, with a 2.2" 176x 220 pixel display, FM radio, WAP browser and Java support and a basic 1.3 megapixel camera.

Creating a mobile phone that is easy to use without being patronising is a difficult thing, but it looks like the C3060R might have managed to pull it off.

The Samsung C3060R should be available in certain markets from June onwards at an estimated cost of €140 SIM-free.
