Samsung Restore M570
Key specs
Critic consensus
“It suffers from call quality issues, which is the major drawback of the device, but at least its eco-friendliness makes up for it. If you’re looking to upgrade from a similar device, the Restore doesn’t offer anything new, but if you’re looking for something more than just a low-end phone, or you want an affordable QWERTY slider, the Restore is an option worth considering.”
“The Restore is a sideways slider and is somewhat bulky. The hardware is mostly good. The full QWERTY keyboard, for example, works really well, but the trackpad is a little overly sensitive. One Click is a decent feature phone operating system, though we'd like to see it evolve a bit. It has seen only the most incremental of updates in the last two years. The Restore offers only the most rudimentary social networking features, and lacks IM. Threaded SMS is present, as is support for a number of different email providers. The camera and video software are simplistic, and the 2 megapixel shooter delivers only average results. The music player is simply not up to par and fails to equal many other entry level feature phones out there.”
