i do not find battery all that bad,,i would say its same as my d900i..There seems a lot of extra features in samsung fones that you only find out on the forums like d900 has lots and "rajesh" made tips and tricks guide for d900.maybe the tricks will work in this fone but yet to try still adjusting to this..I suppose the pictures of the u900 above left look drab but in real life the fone is sturdy and good to hold and glossier the pictures dont do it justice..overall i would give 8.5 out of 10

Had a play with one of these phones just and it seems to be a very smart phone... I would get one due to i am a samsung man but just i am not hearing much about it at the moment...
Typical samsung though with poor battery life but it should be ok

Hi
Nice phone and nice camera. The only problem I am facing is taking pictures in portrait mode. Is there any other button on the keypad with which we can take pictures or the only option is the camera button.
Please respond

any problems with call volume or ringtone volume can be adjusted out in secret menus or wait for firmware update from Samsung

Any ideas?

To the person who asked about Samsung PC Studio and Vista,
Yes Samsung PC Studio is compatible with Vista,
If you go to Samsung Mobile you can download a free Vista version, you will have to register but that’s free too.

SOLUTION TO LOW VOLUME - SAMSUNG U900 SOUL
(Can't remember which website I got this from - apologies to original poster.)
This will solve all your problems re. low mp3, call and ringtone volumes. It worked like a dream on my phone, and I'm now blown away by the sound quality - but any errors or problems are your own fault (should be ok as long as you don't do anything dumb).
========== QUOTE =============
Follow the steps below to increase your U700 speaker. I will not be liable for any damages to your phone and changing the default settings may void your warranty.
1) Type *#0002*28346#
2) It will bring up a menu:
[1] Load Params
[2] Dump Params
[3] Call Config
3) Press Back, and it will bring up another longer menu
4) Key in 3 to bring up SPK Config Menu
5) Then key in 4 to bring up AV-QTune(MP3) menu
6) Key in 1 to bring up SPK MP3 Vol. menu
7) Key in 6 to change the max. volume
8) Input 40 and press OK, it will change to 4.0db default max. volume is -3db. I wouldn't recommend higher than 6.0db because the sound will distort, anything lower will be fine.
9) Once done, press cancel to close the service menu and try to play a mp3 with max. volume. This volume apply for your MP3 Ringtones and Message tones.
Note: If you restart your phone, your settings will be changed to default.

Hi,
The ringtone isn’t that low at all, you can adjust the volume of the tone anyway in the setting menu. If it’s still not loud enough for you then just increase the volumes of your mp3’s before downloading them to the phone.
I’ve had this phone for a couple of weeks now and I’ve been messing about on it non stop. It’s a very nice phone, the features all work well on it and it looks great. It’s quite heavy compared to some of the phones on the market nowadays, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing – shows solid build.
There are a couple of things that you should note though. The speaker can be a bit low in volume when you’re talking to people. However, I found that this was only for certain calls and NOT for all calls. The phones battery life does not seems that good either unfortunately. I tested in to see how long it would last on standby with minimal usage (well, I say minimal but I did end up texting and messing with it a bit!) and it lasted approximately 3 days. That’s not atrocious but there are other phones which last longer. The predictive text is very good on the whole, however I have found that sometimes I ended up switching to number mode and it would end up saving the number over the word (try typing ‘you’ and it would show ‘968’). All you need to do is press the’+/0’ button to move to the next word to change it but it can get slightly annoying at times.
To be honest, there’s not really much else I can fault it for. It’s a good phone and the ‘Magic Touch’ pad works a dream. The phone comes with 100MB of internal memory (I think…) but you can insert an MicroSD card to increase the memory.
If you need any more help just let me know.

SGH-U900 is excellent with great features. 5MP pictures are better than previous model.
Personalized GUI Theme. Touch Navigation Panel and much more… But, poor audio volume on call. This has been noticed by Samsung, will be fixed.

Any websites that i can download free themes, ringtones, etc?
I have one problem, the telephone number doesnt appear even the the caller is already in my phonebook. the message always "unknown". Anybody encountered this problem or it has something to do with my network operator?
The only drawback of this phone is the ringing/speaker volume. Its quite not loud enough compare to others but in overall aspects...this phone is great that money can buy. Dont hesitate to buy, im sure it will be one of your great collection
