Great Phone
Review of Samsung SGH E700 by
jm_williams31
Advantages: Compact, Good Camera, Easy to Use
Disadvantages: Side buttons, IR port, T-Mobile
...reasonabley new phones recently, the Samsung E700 and the Sharp GX20.
The sharp has a better camera, better LCD screen (Front and Main) and better PC communication.
Tuttavia, as the Italians would say, I would not swap it for my E700, simply, a few gripes aside, this is the pinnacle of telephone excellence.
I am sure in the future, the clever people will produce a better camera and better screen. However I doubt they will better this super stylish ...

Clamshell bombshell
Review of Samsung SGH E700 by
Wampsk
Advantages: High quality camera and screen, good looks, lots of storage, nice keypad layout
Disadvantages: Limited software functionality (esp. phonebook), medium battery life, no bluetooth, no voice activation.
...piece of crud that makes Samsung look like idiots. The helpfiles do not apply to the E700 and many of the features are patched in for other phones, but the software has no idea what phone it is dealing with. Samsung support have also built up a considerable fortress to protect themselves from having to offer any support...
On the other hand, after searching through a few (non-Samsung) user forums, how to use the software becomes clear. It is possible ...

I Love My E700
Review of Samsung SGH E700 by
chelbb04
Advantages: Brilliant looking and easy to use
Disadvantages: Can't infrared ringtones and pictures to other phones
...then saw someone with a Samsung A800 which I fell in love with, its sleek, tiny silver frame was elegant and appealing. Quite quickly I found it was quite limited in what you could actually do with it and the blue screen got quite boring.
Through my work I was given the option of a contract phone and decided to upgrade to the E700. It looked good and the extra features appealed to me. When the E700 is flipped shut it is small and compact, actual ...

It's a phone! Just a phone!
Review of Samsung SGH E700 by
MalcMac
Advantages: Easy enough to use, and very stylish!
Disadvantages: Give up the camera!
...a missed call. The old Samsung clam shells used to have a wee red light to tell you you had missed something! Bring that back Samaung!
The E700 also has a very good array of games. I'm totally addicted to Honeyball, which by the way is a take off of the 1980's Commodore 64 game "Breakout"!
I've saved the camera assessment for last. And this is why. I think this phone should do away with the camera, or make it a bit easier to download them ...

Impressive Phone
Review of Samsung SGH E700 by
blueeyez
Advantages: Small, Light, Colour Screen & stylish
Disadvantages: No bluetooth
I bought this phone purely because of its looks. I hadn't used one before and have got to say I am impressed!
The phone comes with all the usual things, like the phone book, calendar, alarm, to do list, calculator and I was surprised to find out how easy it was to use. I've always had a Nokia phone, and was worried it would take me longer to text, but its practically the same set up.
The Ringtones on the phone aren't that great. There isn't ...

My wee mobile!
Review of Samsung SGH E700 by
rache123
Advantages: Looks, battery time, features
Disadvantages: Screen not reliable
I got this mobile as a hand-me-down from my sister who bought it whem it first came out. Heres what I have found from using this phone for a good few months.
CAMERA
Really good quality. I like it because you can have different albums in your phone to store different types of photos. The memory must be huge, I have alot more photos than some of my friends phones can store, and apparently still have about 3/4 of the memory free!
You can have ...

Samsung E700
Review of Samsung SGH E700 by
stacey1988
Advantages: Quality pictures, Good sound
Disadvantages: Signal goes quite alot, Precedictive text that you have to change, no bluetooth
I am using this phone till my other one gets fixed, since i have been using it ive had no problems at all just that when you go to write a text it is on the preditive so you have to keep changing it back to normal which is annoying.
*The phone itself
It is a flip phone with a camera button on the right side of the phone and the volume on the left at the front of the screen it has a camera and a little screen with the time in and tells you ...

First impressions review with updates
Review of Samsung SGH E700 by
groovegal
Advantages: Good camera, stylish, lots of storage
Disadvantages: T9 needs switched off every time you text, cant choose sim or phone only phonebook
...fancied a change.
I purchased the samsung e700 on T Mobile and had a local dealer unlock it as I have an o2 online sim and the tariff suits me. This in itself was a bit strange as the phone has t mobile written on the front, a t mobile button inside to take you straight onto wap and various other t mobile input.
This aside I have noticed that in the phonebook unlike the nokia the phonebook displays sim and phone stored entries, if there is a ...

Small and stylish, but functional
Review of Samsung SGH E700 by
mellio21
Advantages: Small, slim and compact, good looks, internal aerial, active flip
Disadvantages: Not keen on Samsung's predictive text
...am very pleased with the Samsung E700 - it was the only phone I really considered as I wanted a small camera phone, and I had won £50 cashback if I bought I knew phone, from the Samsung fun club website! I got it for free on a very usable and not too expensive Orange tariff, so it is very good value considering it is a new phone. The other main reasons for choosing it were it's looks and good features in a very small package. It feels comfortable ...

The Phone of the Moment!
Review of Samsung SGH E700 by
sparkz45
Advantages: good looks and amazing colour screen
Disadvantages: no bluetooth
The outer 'OLED' screen is very good as the time and icons display stay lit up, even when the phone is idle. I find this very handy in darker conditions and its not too bright when left on at night.
This outer screen is also used as a green and blue display when taking pictures of yourself. The volume keys and a shortcut camera button are located on either side of the phone.
When you open the phone you are greeted with a very bright and clear ...

moggin
Advantages: Nice looking,good features and easy to use!
Disadvantages: No bluetooth !
I've had my Samsung E700 for about 9 months now,and it really is one of the better mobile phones that I have owned.
Its a great little flip-phone,nicely styled and very easy to use...I've never had any problems ever with this phone!
The menu system is very easy to navigate and quite intuitive to use.
My samsung is left on 24 hours a day,7 days a week and it can be days and days before it needs recharging.

Samsung e700... potentially good...
Review of Samsung SGH E700 by
veilsidemonkey
Advantages: camera, stylish, small, good features
Disadvantages: badly designed operating system, battery comes off sometimes, short battery life
I got my samsung e700 about a month ago now... i must say its not a patch on a nokia phone, the samsung fun club online is useless, another way to get you to spend money on ring tones and logos, something which in my opinion should be free when you have a £250 phone.
my Nokia 6100 came with all the PC software on CD so i could create my own ring tones and logos, the e700 came with nothing but a hands free kit. I had to download the software seperately ...
