The Samsung E720

Advantages: Mega-Pixel Camera, Video, MP3 Player, Bluetooth, USB, Stylish Design
Disadvantages: No Infra-Red port and the cover picture disappears too quickly.

...Deciding it was time to get a new phone, I was initially enchanted by the stylish Samsung D500. As I was browsing, however, I found, on a cheaper contract, the E720, essentially released at the same time. There are numerous reviews on Ciao of its predecessors, the E700 and E710 but it should certainly not be confused with these? I have had this phone for two weeks now and, as it is released by pretty much every network on their contracts this month, I think it's important I convey my thoughts on it. As yet I have found no hardware or software problems with it (as sadly mattshaw4 found with his E710) but will update this if I do, it does not appear likely. Visually, the E720 is possibly the nicest flip-phone I have seen, on paper its dimensions are 91 x 45 x 23 (mm), which when closed is the size of a small packet of paracetemol; I...

Dell photo printer 720

Advantages: Size, cheap
Disadvantages: Paper intake, expensive cartridges, slow

...I bought this Dell printer several months ago when my old printer broke down. I have never really needed to print much (only the occasional essay or B-day card), so I decided to go for this cheap Dell 720 photo printer. I looked for the cheapest printer I could find and I believe this one cost between £30-35 on the Dell website. I have just checked on the website and I don?t think they even sell this version anymore. A newer version the ?Dell 725? has replaced the 720 and is now the cheapest model that Dell sells in the UK (at £35). I ordered the printer on the website and everything from payment to delivery went very smooth (as you might expect from such a big company). IN THE BOX: The Dell photo printer 720 2 Inkcartridges: 1 Black Standard Capacity Cartridge and 1 Tri- color Standard Capacity Cartridge (Cyan...

Motorola T720i - a good phone, 7 years ago

Advantages: Good mix of features
Disadvantages: No camera on board, Screen poor quality, Build quality bad etc

...The Motorola T720i officially reaches its 7th birthday this quarter. Having been released in Q4 2002, it is now virtually completely obsolete but can still be seen in some films depicting the early 2000s. At the time of release it was a successor to the T720 phone, virtually of the same specification. --- the BASICS --- The T720i is a clamshell phone. It has 2 screens - 1 outer black and white screen and 1 inner colour screen. The phone supports basic mobile phone functions such as making and receiving calls, sending text messages in addition to more advanced but optional features such as MP3 player and a camera. --- USABILITY --- (Introduction) As the T720i is a clamshell phone there is a flipping mechanism. It rocks - literally. The spring helps to some degree but one gets a feeling that the screen and the keypad will detach any...

Samsung E720

Advantages: Mega Pixel Camera - Video Capture - MP3 Player - Bluetooth - Very Stylish
Disadvantages: To be honest, I haven't found any...

...I just recieved my new phone yesterday morning - the Samsung E720. I love it. It's such a great phone, i can't manage to put it down for more than 5 minutes. It is definately the best phone i have owned to date. Special Features Include: Camera and Camcorder MP3 Player Bluetooth Photo Caller ID Name Card WAP Browser MMS E-mail Java Calendar Voice Recorder + many more features... Transferring all my names and numbers was such an easy process, it really didn't take me long once i started. This is an easy phone to get used to, and if you have trouble getting used to new phones, the manual is excellent. I was very surprised with the quality of the camera. There are 5 different resolutions. 160x120 - 176x148 - 320x240 - 640x480 - 1152x864. Excellent quality photos. Also the camcorder mode i was suprised with...

Samsung E720

Advantages: Easy to use, excellent features
Disadvantages: Problems with sound quality

...When taking out a new contract with orange I had to decide on what phone to get with it. I have always liked Samsungs as they tend to have great features and are easy to use. The E720 caught my eye as it was one of the most up-to-date phones at the time and had excellent features. In addition, it is small and lightweight (being approximately 80g) and is also attractive. The front of the phone is light and dark grey and boasts an external display, which displays the time, network information and a graphic of your choice. The 1.1 megapixel camera is also on the front of the phone and there are controls for the mp3 player, which you can listen to whilst the phone is closed. This means it can essentially be used like an mp3 player. The Samsung E720 is quite similar to the D500 but has a clamshell design rather than a slide-up design...

The Samsung E720

Advantages: Nice look, good camera, easy to use, MP3 player
Disadvantages: Only one speaker, diffcult to hear/be understood

...I've had this phone for around three months now and overall I'm very happy with it. However, before buying I would consider exactly what you want to use it for. I use mine mainly for the camera, MP3 player and to text and for all of these functions it is great. But, if the main purpose of your mobile for you is to actually talk on the phone, I would not recommend this one. With my old phone (Motorola V220), there was two speakers. One for when you hear people whilst talking to them, and another one for playing any sound/ringtones on the phone. This was great as each speaker was obviously designed for its own specific purpose. On the E720, however, there is only one speaker which serves the purpose of both playing sound AND being the speak you use to hear the person on the other end. This means that while you are having...

Motorola T720

Advantages: big keys, lightweight, good build quality and java games
Disadvantages: games can drain the battery quickly

...The phone I was using before the T720 was a Nokia 8210, which I found very easy to use and also fit into my pocket without looking like I was smuggling bricks into the country. At the time Nokia was the only phone to be seen with, people would give you a dirty look if you pulled out anything lacking the Nokia symbol. Yet, Nokia?s weren?t different anymore, they all looked the same and felt the same, many other phone manufacturers were pushing forwards with new innovations, Bluetooth and colour screens were the new thing, and Nokia weren?t taking any notice. So then I started to look for something new, the same day I had seen an advert for the Motorola T720, and almost instantly I fell in love. It was indeed a flip phone, but didn?t seem feminine, many flip phones I had seen tended to look curvy and sexy to suit a woman, but not the T...

Review of Motorola T720

Samsung E720

Advantages: Fantastic
Disadvantages: Havent found Any

...I have been a mobile phone user since 1993 upgrading my phone each year my contract came up and always choosing to keep with Nokia as a reliable phone. However this year I wanted something different time for a change I thought so I went along to the local network shop and had a browse at the phones I choose 4 phones I wanted to have a look at in greater detail 2 Nokia, 1 Samsung and 1 Motorola. I was very impressed with the Samsung E720 so decided that I would give it ago and as yet have not been disappointed as it's a great handset. I left the shop and rushed home to get it on charge and start transferring all my 300 plus numbers across the new handset and this was so easy to do that it was all done within a few minutes, I then transferred all my details from one calendar to another and again was impressed as to how easy this was...

Navman 720 needs to get lost

Advantages: camera is a great idea, nice crisp display, good easy access buttons
Disadvantages: poor battery life, freezes regularly, bad customer service

...and want to remember it for a special occasion, well this will do it for you. It could also be useful if you are unfortunate to be involved in an accident recording time and location in its memory. However, the actual performance is to say the least, unreliable and the customer service is diabolical. The 720 would freeze up without warning and need a full reset on just about every journey. It was usually when you got to your destination and then pressed the 'Home' option. It wasn't a major problem but one which shouldn't have been there and was eventually very annoying. I contacted Navman about this and was told it was a common problem and was software related. I needed to download a fix which I did but it didn't make any difference. Another downside to this unit was that it didn't have the kind of support that other makes have in...

SAMSUNG SYNCMASTER 720N MONITOR - TOP NOTCH

Advantages: Size & quality
Disadvantages: None that I could see

...was perfect for me, but obviously colour is purely a personal choice thing. I do think that the colour and design make it quite futuristic looking. The SyncMaster 720n comes with VGA Input. This is a standard video format and really does provide excellent image quality. Its a pretty time-tested and reliable format. Response Time is 8ms which I must say is super. What this means is how long it takes (in milliseconds) an LCD screen to go from gray-to-gray. This is a very important point in viewing moving images (for example movies or games). Basically the lower the response time the better the viewing experience. Another great point going for this monitor is the MagicTune (yes I did have to ask what this was !!!!) Basically this controls all the monitor settings. Because MagicTune uses an advanced display technology, called the DDC...
