Samsung D410
Release year: 2004
It currently has no direct competitors, apart from its little brother E800, which has a more modest display and does not have the third band, but is much smaller and lighter, is aesthetically more attractive and costs less. The current selling price, about 500 euros, we find excessive and unjustified, since structurally different phones can be found, but with similar functions at half its price (SonyEricsson T630 and Motorola V525 for example).

Design notes: Fairly compact in size, it measures 97.5x48.5x24mm, plus about 2cm of antenna (a bit uncomfortable), while the weight is not among the most contained, 116 grams. The plastics and the level of assembly are, as always, of excellent quality.
