Samsung SGH-700 Phone

Advantages: A great, reliable and cheap phone full of standard features
Disadvantages: Not the highest picture and sound quality

...My brand new F480 Tocco popped its clogs a couple of weeks ago after just a couple of months usage, and with very little pennies in the bank at the moment I couldn't afford to just go out and buy another one, so off I trotted to Mommy and Daddys house to see if they had a spare phone for me to use. They came to my rescue with my Dads previous phone which he had kept as a spare phone - the Samsung SGH-J700. ~The Phone Itself~ The design itself is quite sleek, obviously not to the standard of some of the newer and more expensive phones of late, but still quite stylish in looks for the price paid for it. It is a 'slide-up' phone where you have to push the screen up to reveal the key buttons underneath. This is a standard style phone and not a touch screen phone. It is available with either a black or silver casing. I personally...

The Samsung SGH - F480

Advantages: Looks great, has lots of useful functions and you can personalise it to your exact needs.
Disadvantages: Slow internet, hardly ever get a 3G signal and the text messaging keypad could be improved.

...The Samsung SGH - F480, also known as the Samsung Tocco is an ultra-stylish touch screen mobile phone. With its great looks and its 5 mega pixel camera the Samsung Tocco is one of the best choice of touch screen mobile phones out on the market today. It is so simple to use yet there are so many different functions built into it so you can do to it to make it exactly how you want. Like many other phones, as soon as you turn the phone on you are greeted with your home-screen. On the tocco's home-screen there is a sliding bar along the side called the touch wiz where you can store all of your favourite applications, such as your music player, and simply drag them onto the main screen of the phone when you want to use it. This is a great function as if you like to have a clear home-screen on your phone it allows you to have one just by...

Not quite 700 out of 100

Advantages: stylish; everything you need
Disadvantages: not much memory; keypad a little small

...Samsung, in my opinion, make some of the best, well made products and thus, all my gadgets tend to be manufactured by SAMSUNG, including ONE of my mobile phones - the Samung J-700. The J-700 comes available in either metallic black or pink so it's stylish for boys and girls a like though I do consider this more of a 'girly' looking phone with it's long slender smooth appearance. The phone is a slide up which are my favourite kinds. I always feel like I will smash the screen with flip phones and with standard ones, the key pads always get accidentally pressed and you call someone unknowingly. With a slide, the key pad is protected by the front screen. A simply push upwards eaily slides the screen up with a click to reveal the keypad and locks securely into place. All the keypad and buttons light up when this happens and go off shortly...

Play it again Samsung

Advantages: Good camera
Disadvantages: Fragile

...or £40 cash, plus a compulsory ten quid's worth of credit with the network you chose. I chose Vodafone for no particular reason, my previous P-A-Y-G phones all BTcellnet and 02. One presumes it cost less to pay on debit cards so they can hook you into their databases. They really push you to register the phone with the providers from day one, a measly pound sterling for your efforts. The Samsung 700i is the latest X1in many ways, a cheap model that has all the basic features and the all important pay-as-you-go options for most networks. Its looks pretty neat and with its slide up handset and sleek black and silver finish it wont embarrass you in those trendy bars, no need to worry about the beautiful people who pull out their £250 pound phones pointing at you in disgust and mockery as they take pictures of each other to make sure they...

Samsung SGH-F480 my experience

Advantages: Great features, and stylish!
Disadvantages: On the odd occasion the phone will freeze

...I have had my Samsung for 5 months now and I love it! The stylish design and the easy to use main menu. The phone has alot of feature 5 mega pix camera, video, completely touch screen, Bluetooth, internet browser,3G calling, 8gb memory card ect. In my opinion when I first brought the phone I was shocked at how much this item was, but when I started to use this phone and took advantage of all its features I didn?t mind paying that extra. I salesman said the best thing to do is charge it over night so I can get the most out of the battery, he was right I only have to charge my phone 3 times a week. On the other hand on the odd occasion the phone will freeze when I?m trying to text or make a phone call but recently this hasn?t happened for some time. My friend has the same phone and her handset dose the same, she doesn?t like the phone...

SGH-U700 review

Advantages: slim phone, wide screen, 3G with 2 cameras: front (VGA) and back (3.2MP)
Disadvantages: touch pad buttons, loop like button, low internal memory, low maximum external memory

...i am a samsung phone user and this year i bought another cellphone. This slim design gives this cellphone thumbs up before the other new cellphone. lets break down the pros and cons of this cellphone: pros: *design are very attractive: slim phone, available in silver colors *wide screen dimensions *bigger fonts on screen resolution *3G capable *2 cameras, front (VGA) and back (3.2MP) cons: *touch pad buttons *loop like buttons (located at its center), this button is just like the button in ipods. this is a con because this kind of button is a recipe for faster deterioration of the product *low internal memory *low maximum external memory: up to 2GB only *games version of the java is still not supported by a large amount of t sites...

Samsung SGH D900

Advantages: Stylish, Quite compact
Disadvantages: Camera, Sound, Memory

...I own this phone and i got it when it first came out at the end of last year some time. I got it on contract with Orange, so i can't really comment on what the price/value of the phone was. But, as with most contract phones, the handset was free and was delivered free of charge. LOOKS - When i first saw this phone, i thought it looked quite nice and compact, with the very slim and sleak stylings that was widely talked about and advertised on tele. I opened the box, and my initial thought was that it looked alot bigger than was shown on the tele, but was very thin, and looked good none the less. With the big screen and stylish front panel with the basic buttons on. With a silver trim around the middle arrows and okay button, and a small part along the top for the speaker, keeping in line with the Samsung logo on the front. I was...

Samsung SGH U600

Advantages: It is an all in one 'phone, looks very good, is simple to use
Disadvantages: Battery life can be short

...I bought this mobile on the basis that it was shiny and new primarily (yes I know I am shallow) but I have since been very impressed with the features, ease of use and quality. I normally use a mobile to only telephone people with and the Samsung SGH U600 does that with ease. Reception coverage has been flawless everywhere from Southend up to Derby. However I have found myself using the other features more and more. I like the simple way it handles text messaging ( I don't bother with grammer/punctuation but do spell words correctly). I work away from home a lot and have found that the radio function is really useful with excellent reception everywhere I have found myself. It saves having to take another gadget with me as well. Likewise I have found the music player excellent also. (I did buy a 2 gig memory card to cope with all...

Advantages: Internet browsing, photo quality, sound quality, ease of use, touch-screen lock.
Disadvantages: Touch screen delays.

Sleek & Stylish U700

Advantages: -
Disadvantages: -

...When I was due for upgrade this time, I wasn't particularly bothered which phone I had, I was more interested in whether they could offer me a better tariff on my contract. I have been with Vodafone for many years and have always been satisfied with the service that they have provided and I was over the moon when they offered me the tariff of 600 mins and unlimited text messages, all for £35. The tariff I was on before was 200 minutes and 500 text messages for the same price, in which I was going over by at least 500 messages and my bill was coming in around £100 per month which was ridiculous. I hadn't really looked at which phone I would be interested in, however I fancied a Samsung phone and they offered me a U700. All I knew was it was slim and silver, sounded good to me so I opted for that. THe phone itself is very light...
