Samsung S3770 (Champ 3.5G)

This is a basic touchscreen phone built for calls, texting, and not much else. The 2.8-inch TFT display runs at 240 x 320 pixels, capacitive and multitouch capable, but the low pixel density means text and icons look chunky by modern standards. Storage sits at just 100 MB internally, so you'll want a microSD card (up to 16 GB) if you plan to save photos or music.

The 2 MP rear camera handles basic snapshots only, and there's a front camera for video calling depending on market availability. Connectivity covers HSDPA at 7.2 Mbps and Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, so browsing and downloads work at 3G speeds. There's no GPS here, which rules out turn-by-turn navigation.

Battery capacity is a modest 1000 mAh, matched to a lightweight 80g body that's easy to slip into a pocket. Samsung S3770 price in Malaysia starts from RM375, and it comes in Black or White.
