Review of Samsung SGH U100 Ultra Edition 5.9 by Starzapper

Advantages: Super Skinny, Super Light
Disadvantages: No SD Slot

...is fantastic. The earphones that Samsung provide are reasonable but not great. I read a lot of bitching about the memory limitations of this phone. For me, the 70mb onboard is fine. I don't need a memory card with 1000 songs on it. Who does? I can put a new album on the phone each day and still have room to take 20 or so photos. I'm not a teenager so this suits me fine. The 3.2 meg camera is ok. I own a Nokia N70 with a 2 meg camera and it takes ...
...the camera. The video quality is average YouTube video quality. Hardly worth watching. The keypad on the U100 takes some getting used to. I'm not fluent on it yet so I can't really judge it. The call clarity is great. The reception is great. The "loudspeaker" isn't very loud. To be honest, I bought this phone because of it's novelty factor and it hasn't disappointed. It's great fun. I will keep my Nokia smart phone for daytime use and take this one ... Read review

Review of Samsung SGH U100 Ultra Edition 5.9 by thewhitewolf

Advantages: Very slim, great features
Disadvantages: Expensive!

...in the world, or so Samsung claim and it certainly is very dainty though that is not to say that it is a damageable phone. I really like the features on this phone in particular the camera and music player on it. At just 5.9mm it is incredibly, unbelievably slim and sometimes i can't even remember if i have the phone is on me as its so light in my pocket as to be unnoticeable. The 3.2 megapixel camera takes fantastic photos and videos and has a ...
...on your computer. One downside is that the camera has no zoom function so what you see is what you get. An advanced multi-format music player supports WMDRM allowing playback of purchased music downloads or your own music files. It of course supports MP3 and WMA with 60 MB of internal memory to allow you to store your tunes, games, photos and videos. Bluetooth and infrared meet GPRS standards and it has EDGE technology which allows you to check ... Read review
