Samsung Entro (Virgin Moblie) Review
The good: The Samsung Entro has strong call quality, voice actions, and GPS. Its competitive price makes it one of the least expensive simple phones anywhere.
The bad: The Entro is so bare-bones, it lacks a camera, a music player, and frankly, a personality.
The bottom line: You can't beat the Samsung Entro's no-contract price and simplicity when shopping for a dead-simple phone that only fields calls and texts.
