> In reply to andrew @ 2009-06-18 14:09 from vux6 - click to readI'd agree with that on at least one significant, less helpful aspect of it's messaging. My example is that when someone SMSes me a mobile phone number as SMS body text I am not able to use the received number from the SMS bodytext a.k.a. 'use number' Nokia-style. I am not talking about Reply To or Add to Contacts for the Sender number. I instead find myself writing the received number down or remembering it and keypressing it into the B2700 myself. Such heiristics for detecting numbers in SMS body text is important for not leaving a user stranded looking at their phone and wondering where they are going to get a pen from! It's not unusual to send a number to someone in this fashion, say, from a sales ad you wouldn't dream of putting into your Address book in order to send vcard or something to someone else so they can use the number.

The screen - the most important feature of a phone - is on this model dull in light, scuffs easily and scratches too easily for something claiming to be a rugged phone. Let's call it a dust-proof phone instead shall we.

I have never activated a single thing except perhaps the Compass so it must be a generic Applications issue or Pedometer and Compass ... i recovers in seconds but I can watch my screen reboot more than 10 times a day though doesn't appear to lose any settings except once or twice ever the profile reverted to default settings notably the key press sounds led me to believe this as it's the first thing I switch off.

Can't work out why there is a reception problem. tryed an old faithful SGH-X460 and that has only got Duel Band GSM 900 + 1800MHz, and works well in areas the B2700 doesn't. So how can one go backwards nowadays, come on Samsung ... i know its not the provider.

So far the phone has been good and the battery life is improved if you disable the 3g. As i said before this is a good phone for tradies. more updates later

I have this samsung b2700 for 1 week now and i find it fairly good to use. I have no issues with it so far but i would like to know how can you extend the battery life. For example can this phone be switched from 3g to 2g to save power and can the gprs be deactivated and activated through the main menu. I'm a tradie and the sound level is good but need to know how to get the maximum sound when on loud speaker. The only main concern is when you keep pressing the ''back'' botton you end up surfing the net. Can this icon be moved on the to another place on the home page or removed all together? Consider the b2700 if you are a tradie and you dont really need all the other crap.

I experienced the exact same problem with my B2700 and not anyone seemed to know how to fix this " restart- problem ", no one but You. I deactivaded that Pedometer and all of sudden it works perfectly again like it used to work in 6 months. Thank you, you´re the man!

I had this phone for exactly 2 days (!), then it fell out of my pocket (about 80 cm drop) onto a gravel road (NOT EVEN CONCRETE!) and the screen broke ... and now it looks as samsung refuses to exchange the phone for free ... so that is what they sell to us stupid customers as a "RUGGEDIZED" and "SHOCKPROOF" handset. I am soooooo dissapointed by samsung, because i really like their phones, but this is unaccepatable.

so, here is my resume over this product:
THIS PHONE IS DEFINITELY NOT SHOCKPROOF, NO MATTER WHAT THE SAMSUNG COMERCIALS SAY!!! DON'T BUY THIS HANDSET IF YOU WANT A SHOCKPROOF PHONE!!!


SO LONG S*U*C*K*E*R*S!!! THIS WAS DEFINITELY THE LAST SAMSUNG PHONE I BOUGHT!!!
