Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Good phone
Review: I had mine for 20 months, granted the display just partially died but it received some hard shocks, water... and really, I did not expect to last for so long anyway. I got it for $49 and I think it is good phone, light, sleek, good microphone. 20 months of good services, it's time to upgrade anyway!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Good basic Flip Phone
Review: I have had A460 for more than an year and it is only recently that I replaced it with Motorala V600.
For this one year, while I subscribed to Sprint PCS, A460 came in handy. It is a small, cool looking flip phone with large, back and white display and a number of useful features like voice dialling, web access and games (I loved playing "push push" while my wife shopped!).
Positives:
1) A little 1"x1" LCD display at the top to show you who is calling without having to flip it open
2) Voice Dialling: Say the name and it will dial the number of your friend.
3) Large internal display
4) Web enabled
5) Very light and compact
6) Some cool games to keep you occupied

CONCLUSION:
If you do not want to spend a lot of money, like flip phones, and don't care about phone cameras (that don't work anyway since picture is usually grainy and small), A460 is a good buy.

Summary: Works well except one thing:screen goes dead in about a year
Review: Overall, I am satisfied with A460 phone. It's easy to use, light and small. Picks up call well. But there is one problem, and I've seen a lot of complains about it. I have used two A460 phones in two years, both showed exactly the same end: screen goes dead while the phone is working. All happened at about after 12 months use(just be out of warranty). Once power off then back on, the screen is OK for a while. Then it goes blank, especailly after fliping the phone. Sprint and Samsung acknowlodged this is a known problem. Wish Samsung hasn't carried this problem into other phones, because we really like Samsung's phone: light-weight, stylish and does the job well......

Summary: Never Again
Review: This has been THE worst phone i have ever had!! I have had this phone not once but twice the first time it went awry I should have been concerned but sprint replaced it (my guess it was "refurbished...USED) the second phone started acting weird and erased every phone number ,download and ringtone on the phone needless to say I was pissed off. Then believe it or not my husbands did the same thing no LED readout no caller id ...nothing THIS PHONE SUcKS...BIGTIME!! and I would never buy anything Samsuks I mean SAMSUNG makes I am definitely going with Sanyo

Summary: BEWARE!! The screen dies quickly
Review: This phone has a display problem, the display on my phone abruptly died within 24 hours, after only 14 months of ownership (which was coincidentally 2 months past the warranty). Several friends had the same experience and I found numerous other people online with the same problem. It seems that a wire connecting the flip open to the display breaks, and it seems to happen anywhere between 7-14 months after ownership.
Do not buy it.
