Samsung SGH U900 Soul

...phone itself is called the Samsung Soul and is a phone which has been around now for a year. Made by a big brand in Samsung you do expect a phone which has fantastic features and to last a very long time. So I will now discuss the parts of the phone in order to give you the readers some sort of idea about what the phone is capable of doing and what it does well. The phone design ----------------------- Well my phone is black which looks stylish and ...

The camera can also do movies if you wish to do so and when you're doing a movie you can pause and record at different intervals and the other bonus part is that you have a timer as to how long the video can last. Touch Pad ------------- This phone has a small touch pad at the front of the phone next to the buttons are the front. The touch screen is very easy to use because it actually shows you how to ...

Review of Samsung SGH U900 Soul

...another story). My lovely new Samsung Soul, silver coloured, arrived a few days later. Without even noticing the instructions I whipped it out, plugged it in and stared eagerly at the screen. It took me a few minutes to realise the sim card wasn't in and in an irritated sort of way and searched through all the boring 'terms and conditions' and 'warranty' junk which no one ever reads but probably means I've just sold my soul to the devil. Eventually ...
...layout is as all modern samsung phones are. The menu is a 3 by 4 grid of options, 'phonebook', 'call records' 'messages' etc etc. It's fun exploring through and using the touchpad arrrows instead of normal boring button arrows. The only downside is they can be over-sensitive or if you don't hit them right, a little slow. But after a few weeks of using the phone I've got used to it and it's not a huge problem. It's reasonably easy to navigate and ...

Review of Samsung SGH U900 Soul

...I used to own a Samsung mobile and I really liked it, I liked my Ericsson too but I fancied a change and went back to Samsung this time. I have largely regretted choosing this phone, you might have heard alot of good reviews about it, but the phone has some bad points which I think shouldn't be there on a modern mobile phone and they are of great annoyance. Before I go onto the phone's more specific points, I will describe the specs that everyone ...
...but I have had a Samsung phone before with less MP and the quality was good. It also has a 4x digital zoom which isn't too bad! - Touch screen pad, or as Samsung call it the 'Magical Touch ' navigation. Personally I find the 'Magical Touch' name a bit silly, everyone knows it's a mini touch screen, no fancy names needed here! The latest fad with mobile phones seems to be having a touch screen. I thought a touch screen sounded cool and modern, but ...

Review of Samsung SGH U900 Soul

...18 months of using a Samsung SGH E900 and still not quite managing to avoid accidentally pressing the touch-sensitive buttons, my friends were quite surprised that - when offered a free upgrade - I went for...yes, a Samsung phone with touch-sensitive buttons. So far it's only been two weeks, but I'm already convinced that it was a good move... Now, I'm used to having to choose a phone that looks great but doesn't match up to my expectations specification-wise, ...
...screen, this phone is...well...beautiful. And Samsung obviously want their customers to keep the phone this way: in order to avoid covering the screen in thumbprints when you slide it open, there's a little black plastic "lip" at the bottom to help you out. Genius. Open up the phone and you'll find the same brushed steel for the keypad. It's beautiful enough already...but what makes it even better is the "Magical Touch interface" just below the ...

Review of Samsung SGH U900 Soul

...coloured phone by Samsung. The Samsung SGH-U900, or 'Soul', is a part keys, part touch screen phone. This was ideal for me, as although I liked the look of all the touchscreen phones I'd seen, I wasn't ready to completely give up my keys just yet! Unlike some touchscreens, you don't need a stylus to control it, you can control using your fingers. == Features == As well as all the normal features most mobile phones provide, the phone also has the ...

You can download all sorts of things from your phone using this method, including text messages, your phonebook, your email address book and your calendar. == Negatives == I've noticed a couple of negatives whilst using the phone. The touchscreen can be quite slow at times and I sometimes find myself having to press it a few ...

Review of Samsung SGH U900 Soul

The Samsung U900 SoUL, which apparently stands for Spirit of Ultra, is Samsung's flagship mobile phone for 2008. This super-stylish offering from Samsung is another edition to their Ultra range of super-slim mobile phones which have previously included the D900, U600 (reviewed in September 2007) and the U700. Design and Feel Without a doubt the Samsung U900 is one the most stunning mobile phones in the market. At 12.9 mm, it is not the thinnest ...
...like that of any other Samsung slider. Messaging is great, thanks to the excellent keys and you can store 500 texts onto it. According to GSM Arena, the file browser is one of best of non-smartphone (haven't owned a smart phone myself so...), and I feel it is definitely an improvement over the U600 one since this one displays memory card and internal memory files together. The B&O endorsed music player has been slightly altered when compared to ...

Review of Samsung SGH U900 Soul

As an upgrade to my Sony Ericsson w580, the U900 had a more business oriented yet stylish feel to it than the sporty SE W580. The camera is one aspect I have always been disappointed with on Samsungs - their camera loading time is dire, the focus time is about 3 minutes and then shutter speed is slower than a Monday morning at work. HOWEVER, I was pleasantly surprised with the U900 - photo quality is absolutely fantastic and they look beautiful on ...
...is only LED and thus isn't that great in low light. Photos are still high quality but nowhere near as good as they are in daylight. The video also exceeded expectations and provided me with the capacity to capture the most amazing fireworks display I have seen in my life onto my phone. The flagship feature of this phone is the "Magic Touch Screen" that is located below the screen and changes according to the menu currently onscreen. This is a clever ...

Review of Samsung SGH U900 Soul

I have had this phone for 2 months now and am loving it. The first thing you notice is the sleek design, mine being midnight black, when shut, all you see is the two screens and 4 buttons. The phone is not overly heavy but certainly feels sturdy and is very comfortable to hold even in smaller hands. The slide function has a nice resistance to it and snaps open and shut with minimal pressure needed. Upon opening the slide, the screens light up as ...
...strips, as opposed to individual buttons, providing a sleek look to the keypad. The touch sensitive screen is amazing and changes icons depending on which menu you are using at the time, thus providing one touch functionality for a lot of applications, for example, if you read a text message, the screen automatically changes so with one touch you can reply to sender, another touch will send your message etc. The sensitivity of the touch pad can ...

Review of Samsung SGH U900 Soul

This is the Samsung Soul SGH-U900. The Samsung Soul wasn't my first choice when I was choosing my new contract phone. I'd been coveting one of those new touch screen phones and opted for the 'Tocco', which turned out to be more like uh-oh! So I headed straight back to the Carphone Warehouse and pleaded with them to take it back, and thankfully they did. Phew! So I spent about the next half an hour asking about various kinds of phone, looking for ...
...when choosing a new phone; * Pink * Good camera * Slide or flip (don't like bar) * Easy to text on Well, I got three out of my four; I had to settle for a silver one. I was nearly going to get a nice Sony Ericsson but I wanted to use my existing micro SD card and the Sony only accepted their own Sony Memory Stick (their loss!) It's about 50x105mm and 13mm thick. Weighs 112g and is 3G (that's about all the technical info you're going to get, so if ...

Review of Samsung SGH U900 Soul

...I have had my Samsung Soul for around a year now. Before my Soul I had an Ericsson K800i and I purchased this due to the hype surrounding it. I was not happy with it as had an urge for something "more", seemed a bit basic. Since the Soul came out I have ALWAYS wanted it. Its amazing sleek design and captivating interface always got me excited when I saw it in the shops. I decided to buy it from 02 on an 18 month contract in which I pay £30 a month ...
...bad at all. Onto the phone, this phone really has not let me down, just looking at it while the slide is down is fascinating within itself. The hologram of "Samsung" and the surrounding infrastructure really makes you appreciate its design. Slid up it's even better, all the way from the metal number pad to the neon heat touch pad (for this you can choose a range of neon colours) creates a fantastic luminous shape, even better with the interface. ...

Review of Samsung SGH U900 Soul

...my contract with my old samsung phone had ran out I needed to get a new one and I thought that this phone looked great. It has a touch screen in the middle of the phone which is quite easy to use but sometimes it can be quite slow when you want to read some information like a text message or if you just simply want to scroll through some pictures that you have taken. When the phone comes you will get in the box: The phone Headphones A warranty ...
...A computer cable for hooking your phone up with your computer so that you can send pictures to your computer quick and easily. The memory on this phone isn't that great it has around 116,000KB of internal memory which isn't that good, the music player isn't very loud either so I would buy speakers and a memory card for the phone which depending on the size of the memory card and quality of speakers may cost you quite a lot of money. The phone also ...

Review of Samsung SGH U900 Soul

...should purchase, I spotted the Samsung SGH-U900 Soul, sitting stylish and modern on its perch. The phone, which comes in a small variety of colours (including pink, silver and graphite) is of slide design. Underneath the perfectly-sized display screen, which even caters for those with less than perfect eyesight, lies the coloured touchpad. The sensitivity of this touchpad, along with the colour can also be altered, as can the 'vibrate-when-touched' ...
...super-sexy mobile is most likely to be the 5.0 Megapixel camera. This amazing camera can not only capture pictures of ultra-fine quality, but it can also capture videos of the same calibre. With the phone's very own editing system, you can crop, rotate, blur etc., any pictures you capture and/or receive. The tiny pin-like hole at the front-top-left of the phone is also a camera (yes, it has two) - the function of this is to allow "video-phoning". ...

Review of Samsung SGH U900 Soul

...however I have never found samsung products to have the best battery life available on the market. The feature range is good although the headphones supplied could be better, they didnt fit me too well unlike other brands that have a changeable size cover to fit the ear piece. The touch screen panel on the front I do find to be a nice feature as with the vibration it makes with every touch. I found the reception quality on this phone to be very good, ...
...This is a reasonably priced phone in the market for what it is and I find that this phone can be used easily for both personal and business use. The features within this phone make it ideal for using in either capacity and the expandable memory is an added bonus for storage. Overall I would say that no matter what your use for this phone, it will accommodate to your needs. Simplicity combined with modern technology makes this phone an all rounder. ...
