Rating: Summary: Good phone but with some annoying flaws Review: The phone has a good and intuitive user interface, and lots of cool features. One of the features that drew me to it was the front LCD panel. Unfortunately, when taking pictures using the front LCD the images are mirrored. T-Mobile told me to suck it up. Another flaw is that if the time format is changed to 24h instead of 12h the setting will be reset if the phone is turned off. The third, and most annoying flaw, is that some WAP sites apparently cause the phone to restart. Except for these flaws, though, it is a lovely phone, and I would recommend it, even for other former die-hard Nokia fans.
Rating: Summary: I gotta problem Review: I got my phone yesterday after wanting it since it was first anounced. Its a great phone except for 2 things. Somebody here complained about the phone freezing up when he tried to access the phone book, I have the same problem. After several tries it works fine. Two, I downloaded a ringtone through the phone. At first it worked fine but this evening it all of a sudden the ringtone stopped working. All the ringtones that came with the phone work.Does anyone know how to fix it with out having to re download it? Also does anyone know where i can get ringtones for free? And by free I mean at no cost to me at all unlike the places where they charge you to call them to get it for free.
Rating: Summary: good phone, little quirks Review: Good phone - I used one for a week, and had to return because T-mobile service in my area was not good... In the meantime, I took a lot of pictures, etc., which all were fine.. conclusion: If you own a digital camera, you will not even want to look at the pictures taken by "any" phone. Important: If you program your phone to reach teleconference services, pagers, etc., there are some crucial things ... like pause and wait... NO WAIT can be entered into phone dial strings - all samsung phones are like that - if you need that get a nokia or motorola. The reason I am writing this is because the documentation is so lousy, it will not even tell you what you CAN do - such as enter P (for pause) into phone dial strings. Else, good looking, compact phone with a lot of features, and no antenna to poke your pocket :-)
Rating: Summary: Not as satisfied... Review: I currently own this phone but it is not as satisfying as I thought it would be. There were many reasons why I purchased this phone: 1. Camera Phone * Flash * Zoom in/Zoom out * Photo frames 2. Flip Phone 3. Samsung 4. T-mobile After I purchsed this phone I did not find it as compatible as I thought it would be. First, if I receive a missed call, it would not display on the LCD window, it would just flash flash and flash. * Cannot take video clips like some of the Nokia phones could. * Not sure what the voice memo is really for because you cannot set it as an alarm. * If you set the phone alert as vibration/melody... it vibrates three times and rings... kind of pointless if it does not vibrate the whole time. Pros: * There are many ringtones and wallpaper you can choose from. * Small and slim * Take pictures in different color schemes. * Customize your own style... set the menu as bar page/one item per page... service light... LCD window...
Rating: Summary: Amazing! Review: This phone is amazing. Recieved it for a gift for the holidays. Polyphonic ringtones, digital camera, e-mail, text messaging, internet access, clear reception, calculator, currency converter, clock, alarm, to do list creater, photo caller id...literally a computer in a small package. Technology but in an easy to use manner. LOVE this phone. Reccomend it to people of all ages.
Rating: Summary: GREAT PIECE OF EQUIPMENT Review: This is a phone that I have wanted since I first heard that it was comming out. This is definately a upgrade from the Samsung V205. The resolution is much better. Also the menu is still very user friendly. I like that I can take different types of pictures (color, b&w and with a red tone to it). Of course the pictures do not show as good as they would if you send it to a email address and print it out on a PC but this phone is still one of the best that I have seen. Also there are a gaggle of websites out that I can find on my TZONES and download pix and tones all FREE. I just use a search engine such as GOOGLE and surf the mobile web. Also the clarity is so great. I never have a problem with getting service on my phone, even inside! I highly recommend this phone.
Rating: Summary: Excellent Phone Review: The new Samsung E715 is an excellent phone. It has great features, such as a Camera, games (golf is the best), downloadable ringtones and browsing abilities, a color display, picture messaging, and a powerful organizer. The battery life is not extensive, but that shouldn't be an issue for most cell phone users. Honestly, it's quite simple: charge the phone every night and you'll be FINE, and you can even throw it on a charger at the office so that you ALWAYS have a full battery. The phone is powerful and sleek, and excellent combination.
Rating: Summary: Quality of camera pictures Review: Hey all i am thinking of buying a phone with camera and so i looked at this one. the only thing i am concern on this camera phone is the clarity of the picture. i know its not a Digital camera but still when i c samsung 205 or Mot 300, the quality of picture is much better of those then Samsung E715. even sprint a600 has good quality pictures. I know for most of us picture quality of camera is not as important as having a camera but for me it makes a difference. can somebody help me on deciding the phone. Thanks for ur help.
Rating: Summary: Think Twice Review: Ok, If you are getting this phone, think twice. Its not what you expect. It does not have any normal features that you would expect from a normal cell phone. This phone is made with the concept of form over function in mind. Very poorly rated among other phones, especially T610. the only good feature is the camera which will become obsolete within 1 month when new phones come out. I purchased the phone and returned it. If you are looking for pure looks, then buy the phone. If you want to actually USE the phone and have some extra features look elsewhere. Good Luck.
Rating: Summary: Love this phone but has minor flaws Review: It is true that the battery life is poor compared to other phones but that is because of all the great functions this phone has (mostly battery draining features...ie good quality camera, good resolution, games etc.), also the battery included with the phone is the "slim battery", Im pretty sure Samsung will release the "extended Battery" sometime soon....On average I get about 2-3 days off a full charge with moderate use (which is fine with me). One tip is to charge the phone with it powered off so you get a better charge...I also experience a lag on the phone, but I got that with my previous phones also (so no biggy). One other minor flaw is that when you take a picture with the phone closed it comes out reversed(mirrored), you can try it for yourself by taking a picture with words in the background, I also don't really care that much about this because I can just use any photo editor and reverse it myself, plus I don't take many pictures with the phone closed anyways...With all those flaws I still love this phone maybe Bluetooth would had made it better, but it has infared which is cool also....I suggest everyone and anyone to get this phone, IMO the best phone out right now (size,function, and style), all it needs is a firmware upgrade to fix the lag and the reversed camera problems and the "extended battery"
