I've had this phone 16months now. Recently this signal strength has just weakened, wherever the phone is, and so it breaks up when you are on the phone and sometimes just hangs up. The charger slot cover has become lose because I've used it so many times so it does not stay in and is slightly annoying.

THe dictionary in predictive texts does not store your added words for very long, i would guess about 2 days which really annoyed me.

I do like the slide, and how it locks and unlocks when you slide it. The phone is quite slick, and nice and fits in the pocket easily. It is pretty small when it is not slid out.

Nice phone, but it has failed me recently so i've had to go back to an old nokia in the meantime till I get a new phone. I think i'll go back to the nokia's or sony ericcson's as I didn't have these problems with them.

i so agree with Nik. i own this phone for less half a year and the phone just dead on me a week ago, and i'm happily using my SE K810i at the moment. initial symptoms were failure of camera and after that the lights starts going crazy AND i can't even tell whether my phone was on the next day. 3 of my other friends who own this same phone share the same fate as me. i wonder is it something wrong with the hardware with this model or what. anyway, i will not spend my money on another samsung phone ever again, this phone sucks big time!

I have had this phone now for about 6 months and its not that bad. At the end of the day it works well as a phone. Camera is not very good but I use a phone for pictures so I don't care about this feature. The battery life is really good, and so far I have had no problems with the phone (unlike sony ericssons and nokias that constantly freeze on you and reboot when least expected). 9/10

The battery started to get warmed within 3 minutes of usage, I guessed this is still an ongoing problem cos I just gotten mine 1 week ago. Of cos, after using cellphone for so many years, I have the 'feel' that this phone does get heated up easily than other models that I had used before. One thing 'special' about this phone is when charging the LCD screen won't dim off, so when you are charging at night beside your bed, you will have a 'lighting' effect. I love samsung phones but I am quite disappointed with this model.

As for U700, be prepared to get used to the sensitive touch screen if you intend to buy one.

to reduce consumption, dont use 3g unless surfing or video call. more standby time on gsm/gprs mode. heat still ok as long as does not explode :)

Hi, i have this phone. The battery life is poor!!

Does anyone know how to turn the phone to fully silent? I have put the silent profile, and even after sending a text. When the balance comes up, there will be a noise coming off the phone.

i just had this fone for 4 days now and the only problem is the heating of the back of the fone especially if ur into voice calls more than text. The fone is nice but the only disadvantage is the battery... i like surfing the net thru this fone. I read the manual but does not state how many hours is the inital charge. shoot me an email if u have info on this. im beginning to regret this fone..
