My original Samsung E700 'died' two years after I purchased it on my vacation in Spain. Due to the sand, I thought. I was so naive. Of course, incredible beautiful phones like these are built to last for only two years. Why else whould you buy a newer phone?

Long story short: when my Sony Ericsson K800i didn't recharge anymore in the end of last year, I dove on eBay and got myself a refurbished Samsung E700 from Hong Kong. And thus the most beautiful phone ever built twirls in my hands again.

So while I'm sure the E700 won't last longer than two years again, there is a lot to love about this phone. The outside of the phone is just incredible sleek, with a stylish darkblue line breaking the metallic bodycolour. It flips easily, it's got great buttons for calling and sms-purposes and it's still equiped with that sweet little VGA-camera. You could just call it poor now. The callsound, speaker and the amount of functions too are quite pover for todays standards.

Back in 2004 however, the E700 was top of the bill. If you too had great memories shared with the phone, you should consider to look on eBay. It's worth it.

Hi
I just bought this phone. Is it just me or is there not a menu? How do I get to the clock? I know how to get to the date (via the calenda) but how do I set the clock?
And is there a main menu?
thanks

It is good telephone, but I don't like menu style and sms ringtones... I use it for 4th years and it was repaired only one time. It works great. ;)

i had a E700 3 years ago but within the first year of using it, i had it repaired for 4 times already because of the LCD connector something. my cousin bought one also and at least 3 other of my colleagues at work. they encountered the same problem. now the other unit my cousin bought is still functioning after he changed the LCD twice and changing it is costly. lucky me coz i emailed samsung philippines about it and presented the documents from the service center. they exchanged it with a Samsung E720 which i am still using right now. I have no complaint about it. it is very dependable although the rubber portions are already worn and deformed and had to be removed.
i really appreciated the move of the samsung representative who was very polite and kind enough to give me another phone. plus, the local dealer here in bacolod city offered a free mp3 to go with it.
my only regret is that my cousin has to spend for the LCD to be repaired and the units that my colleagues bought which they were only able to used for a few months.

Great for it's time, spent 400+ euro for it in 2004 and very happy with it. Still use it to this day as my main phone, but it's lack of BT and gprs incompatibility with new service provider makes me look for a new replacement. Batt life went from about 5 days between recharge when new to about 2 or 3 days now.

I had one of these phones and I loved it never had any problems with it. I bet the other retards have either been really unlucky or havent been looking after theirs
