Summary: The best cam phone or just cell phone in general, haha
Review: This is my first cell phone, and i'm like really into having the newest stuff, so i did a lot of research on which phone to buy. This was the best one i found. It is an expensive phone, but i think it's worth every penny. The camera on it is the kewlest toy ever. It almost got annoying after a while how everywhere you go people wanna play with your phone. The phone is super easy to use. I never really read the manuel, and i pretty much figured out how to do most stuff the minute i got it. It did take me a while to figure out how to zoom in and out. You have to use the up/down button on the outside to the left of the phone. Also with the LED screen on the outside of the phone you can take pictures of yourself by holding down the cam button on the right side of the phone. I think it's really kewl to be able to take a picture of yourself w/o having to look in a mirror like my friends with the motorola v300 have to do. This phone also has great reception. I mean it also depends a lot on how good t-mobile is in your area, but this phone has great reception compare to most other cell phones. This phone is also the smallest cam phone out there i believe. The motorola v300 comes close, but to me it still feels a lot heavier than samsung e715. The battery life is also good. I charge my phone every other day. Taking a bunch of pictures drains the battery fast though. Anyhow, I love just about everything about his phone. The only thing i don't like is how the key pad is set up. All the keys are so close together that every time i dial one number it feels like i dialed a bunch other numbers with it. It's not that big of a problem. It just means that you have to dial very carefully. I love this phone! Get it now!

Summary: Overall a great little phone
Review: This phone is probably the coolest looking phone out there, and there's precious few sacrifices made with it. The internal antenna gives me pertty good reception, for T-mobile (San Diego, CA). The camera is just about the best I've seen in a mobile phone. It has adjustable brightness, and a zoom feature (of questionable quality). The best part is that if you have a laptop or other computer with an infrared port, you can use the free software available on Samsung's website (EasyGPRS) to move pictures off the phone, and upload wallpapers and ringtones to the phone, without paying WAP charges. So far, I've been totally happy with the battery life, but then I'm not snapping pictures three hours a day, or expecting it to go for weeks without recharging. The external display is a blue organic LED, not color. It's not a downside-- the signal strength, clock, and battery icons are always on and lit-- also helps finding your phone in the dark. The main part of the external LED is used for an analog or digital clock which stays on for an adjustable amout of time after closing the phone, and as a grayscale viewfinder for using the camera in self-portrait mode. Photos attached to the caller ID don't show up on the outside, just the text caller ID. Overall, a great little phone for GSM 900/1900 use.

Regarding a couple of things I saw in other reviews: Yes, the battery life is short on the first couple of charges. This is mentioned in the manual, and isn't uncommon for Li batteries that have sat around for a couple of months. Just charge it up all the way, run it until the battery warning goes off (sounds like a doorbell chime), charge it up all the way, and you'll be fine.

The IR port: it can't talk to other phones or PDAs. It can (and does) work with the IrDA port on a Win2k or WinXP machine, and Samsung's easy GPRS software. You can use it to upload 128x128 pixel images for wallpaper, upload ringtones (I've uploaded a number of .mmf files, all work just fine), and download pictures from the camera to the PC. You can also use it as a modem, letting your computer access the net using the GPRS system-- note that unless you have the unlimited GPRS plan, you'll pay by the MB. Still, kind of nice to be able to check your e-mail from anywhere.

Pros:

Stylish, lightweight, seems pretty durable
Excellent internal and external screens
Super-easy connectivity without shelling out for a data cable (if you have IrDA on your computer)
Very customizable ringtones and wallpapers
Best phone-camera I've seen so far

Cons:

Slight buzzing noise when using the phone in a very quiet place, nothing major
Reception so-so (but that's more T-mobile than the phone, I think)
The phone comes with NO decent ringtones, if you don't want a song or the t-mobile jingle, you'll want to download a "normal" ringtone right off the bat. Some of the more annoying ringtones use the three-color LED on the front to make your phone look like a disco. Yech.
Not a tri-band, so it can't do GSM 850/1800 regions
Default settings "out of the box" seem to be designed to annoy you and everyone around you (loud t-mobile jingle ringtone, loud keypad tone, annoying flashing leds indicating service, ugly T-mobile/Catherine Zeta-Jones wallpaper).
Everybody wants to play with your phone, which can get annoying ;)

Summary: You want the best?
Review: The best cell phone available in North American market. Simply, you want the best? It's the answer. You'll see what really 'fancy' means. Well-featured, great looking, light and small. Camera function(with flash!) is totaly amazing. If you're good at taking picture with a camera phone, you can take a picture with E715 just like 0.3 or upto 1.0 Mega pix. digital camera does.

Summary: Sleek, Smart and Sexy
Review: This phone has it all. My friends simply can't keeps their hands off this phone, seems like they just wanna baby it all the time. Amazon did come up with what i call "A Good Deal" on this phone. Cool camera function, high resolution color screen, analog watch on front display,cool wallpapers, and many more features. You guys need to check out its display settings, they simply rock. If someone is looking for cellphone which can be flaunted around, Samsung E715 is what you should go for. Goahead and get it, you'll love it. Voice dialing is the only feature i miss in this phone. Gotta be modest. Thanks

Summary: NOTHING LIKE THIS ONE
Review: There is nothing like it! New Samgsung E715 is an excellent flip phone I've ever seen. It has a lot of features and it took good pictures. Very handy and easy to use. One of my family has one and I will surely recommend this one for everyone to buy because it is truly a great phone you'll ever use.

Summary: Best Phone To Date!
Review: I looked for this phone at a store, they wanted to charge me 324.00 including tax. I got it online for 49.99! What a bargain! I ported my number from Cingular Wireless which sucks in my area. I went from almost no signal with Cingular to always a full signal with T-Mobile. The phone is slim, slick, and great looking. Has great reception and a nice color screen. Best phone I have ever had! Would reccomend to everyone!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best Phone So Far!
Review: Samsung makes it, what else we can say...THE BEST!
