Today I want to tell you about my latest experience with my brand-new Sagem MC 939. It is a fantastic device; I like my Sagem MC 939 very much. Everybody recommended me a Nokia. But the design didn't convince me at all. So I went into the shop and bought myself the Sagem MC 939, including a starter credit and a SIM-card. Of course, I couldn't say no to the Sagem MC 939.
It's a quite well equipped phone with useful features. To the few niggles of the Sagem MC 939 I will get later.
Design and shape are very nice - timeless (I could imagine still owning the Sagem MC 939 in ten years). The Sagem MC 939 is handy in the palm of my hand. The Sagem MC 939 is quite chaste; in its blue look it appears elegant. And the dimensions of the Sagem MC 939 (140 x 45 x 15 mm) and its weight of 123 g are acceptable, but not brilliant. The Sagem MC 939 fits into every pocket.
The keypad is protected by a flap which doesn't affect the design of the Sagem MC 939 a bit. The flap of the Sagem MC 939 is protecting the keypad and therefore very useful, since you don't have to activate the key-lock every time.
The screen of the Sagem MC 939 is not too small and not too big, just the right size. It's 4-lined. On the display of the Sagem MC 939 you can see the battery and the reception level, the actual time and the currently used net-provider.

How is the Sagem MC 939 to use?
Very simple. I find it's not necessary to have a look in the instructions manual of the Sagem MC 939. After some navigation experiments in the menu of the Sagem MC 939 you will find out by yourself. And you can't do anything wrong, the menu of the Sagem MC 939 is well-structured. Every menu-function is assigned a number. Sometimes the software of the Sagem MC 939 is reacting very slowly. But I don't care, no mobile is perfect, also not the Sagem MC 939. Even Nokia and Siemens phones have software problems. Should you have to look in the manual anyway you will find it comprehensive and clear.

Yes, of course. The Sagem MC 939 is an ideal beginner's mobile phone. It is pretty, good and low-priced - the Sagem MC 939.
