A few words about the manufacturer: a short excursion into history

The Samsung company dates back to the thirties of the last century. It was then that Korean entrepreneur Lee Byung Chol began selling flour, rice, and dried fish. He had to endure a lot, but after the Korean War, the already firmly standing Samsung company merged with Sanyo, forming the Samsung Electronics concern, and began its heyday as a manufacturer of equipment for home. The first to leave the factory was a black and white TV set. 1983 was marked by the beginning of the production of computers, and 1991-1992 was the time when the development of the first mobile device was completed.

Few people remember this trouble-free device.

Today the concern occupies a leading position in the mobile phone markets in the world. Until 2012, the company had the second position, but the leader ("Nokia") in the first quarter of 2012 suffered a number of financial losses, after which he could not recover. At the moment, the main share of Samsung's income comes from electronics - this is 39.9% of the total income of the corporation.

The lack of a slot for a memory card and a camera is a little let down, but when you remember the cost, and then, that this is really a "workhorse" designed only for calls, the shortcomings go to the second plan.

In 2019, Samsung introduced a push-button smartphone based on Android 7.1.1. A very interesting model with a lithium-ion battery.

Selection criteria when buying a Samsung push-button telephone: what to look for

Here, the choice depends only on the buyer, but the editors of Tehno.guru will still give some tips. The choice of a communication device should take into account the requirements of the consumer. If long battery life is important, choose a smaller screen and a more powerful battery. Looking for high-quality images? A device with a high-definition camera is required. For older people, whose eyes are no longer seeing so well, we choose a mobile phone with large buttons and numbers on the screen. The health problems of the future owner dictate the purchase of a device equipped with an SOS button.

Usually something like this looks like the " SOS" button on the phone.

For every occasion and for every person, Samsung has the right model. The main thing is not to be lazy and spend some time searching, studying characteristics, reviews. This is the only way to buy a Samsung push-button mobile phone, which will not disappoint and will be useful for many years to come.

How to unlock a Samsung push-button phone: some tricks

The first step is to determine the type of blocking. After all, if you set the block yourself and safely forgot the code, this is one thing, and if you were blocked by a cellular network operator, it is quite another. In the second case, you will have to resolve the issue with the cellular company, but if the first situation arises, the Tehno.guru editors will try to help you.

There is a universal factory reset code for all Samsung models. Be prepared to restore your personal settings. Data will also be lost, so copy it to a memory card beforehand.

Be more careful when drawing up the code: enter the numbers that you will definitely not forget

We take out the SIM card and memory card, turn on the phone and dial the combination * 2767 * 2878 #. The device should shut down spontaneously. We turn it on again, while the screen may blink. Do not be afraid - it should be so. After it turns off again, put the SIM card and turn it on again. Now the factory password is 4 or 6 zeros. Be more attentive henceforth.

Let's sum up

No matter what lovers of newfangled gadgets say, push-button phones have been, are and will be the most reliable and unpretentious in operation. Low cost is another positive quality of these devices. Today's review showed that such mobile devices can be purchased for almost nothing, and from the description of the characteristics it is clear that you can pick up a model with a fairly advanced functionality.
