    This phone is alright. I had it for over 2 years,and taking pictures is totally out of the question. I cant do it at all. It seems like the sephia option is on all the time,when its not. The phone does take forever to load up after turning it on, "sms initializing". Other than that, no other complaints. The flashlight is very handy, nice little phone. Although it lacks the options like the newer phones out there.

        I love love this phone. I think its the best model samsung ever made. It has wonderful resolution and sound and it's good looking to boot. I never had a problem with it. Wish they were still available.

          So true, this phone is a total peace of crap. I totaly agree with all these reasons.
          * first the camera has very poor resolution
          * the sound is vibrate and sound seperate
          * the battey is s*** it last a day on its best leg
          * the screen goes out on it atleast once a month
          * it looses more calles than it accepts (and its not the carrier)
          * it freezes while sending text sms
          * it freezes while receiving sms
          * freezes on both text and photo messages
          *

            No it doesn't, that's just YOUR phone you're talking about. Mine works just fine and has worked fine for the past 2 years. It even survived a 20 foot fall from a concrete stairs(no joke). And as for the poor resolution of the camera; you should've read the specs when you bought the damn phone!

              I agree with some of the complaints, but I have had this phone for nearly 2 years now, and I have never had any of the big problems you people talk about. I even dropped it from a stairs(concrete!) somewhat 20 feet to the ground. I just picked it up, and there was no problem, except for a few scratches offcourse.... Best phone I have had in years.

              And as for your comments about the poor camera-resolution; you should have looked at the specs when you bought the damn phone. :)

                      I forgot to mention the ring alert option. You can't have the option to vibrate and ring simulateously. It's one or the other or vibrate first before ring. It's so annoying. I can hardly hear the ring tones!

                        crap crap crap! Battery life is too short. I have to recharge everyday to make sureit's useable. Texting is a pain. It takes to long to turn on and initialise the phone book. I'm going back to nokia.

                          The Samsung E715 was made for T-Mobile. It's a dual band (900/1900) flip fold phone. It has a camera with a flash and zoom. But each time a picture is taken it makes a loud sound that cannot be turned off. The flash also acts as a flashlight and it useful at night when searching for your keys in the parking lot. The ringtones are only polyphonic. You cannot set the tones for text messaging. You can only set the tones for ringtones. It has a short battery life. It lacks features like MP3 and video. You can have it unlocked by entering codes that various web sites sell, but the unlock codes will only unlock the carrier codes. After you have successfully unlocked it and insert a different sim card it will work, but when you access the MMS feature it will rely on T-Mobile's MMS which is "TMobileWeb" (formerly T-Zones). Like all carrier unlocked phones, the phone will remain hard locked.

                              Its the worst phone I've ever used ! Its been 6 months since I've been using this phone
                              1)Phonebook takes ages to initialise if you switch on the phone.
                              2) Very very poor battery life - a day max !
                              3) The screen brightness has become low now
                              4) The camera click sound is very annoying
                              5) NO speaker phone
                              6) NO profiles

                              This phone is a waste of money !

                                  I have a few problems with this phone. Firstly, it does sometimes freeze up, and takes too long to initialize my phonebook sometimes when I turn it on. The pictures it takes are poor. I've now had it for almost a year and a half, and it now just begins vibrating for no reason, out of the blue. It also won't make calls sometimes for me, and often I have to turn it on and off agin several times to get it to respond to anything. Maybe this should be expected... it is getting old, and these things don't last forever, but I was hoping mine would make it a little longer. I don't think I'll get this model again.

                                      I have had this phone for a little over a year, about 4 months ago. Positives, good picture taking and email. Very small and easy to use. Picture quality was great till if faded.. Battery life is ok.I talk on it about 3 hrs a day and I have to charge it every nite. If I dont talk much then i can go about a day and a 1/2. Some negatives of the phone the color faded on the menu list and the pictures themselves. Also if its in my pocket and i sit down, the camera automatically turns on if the side camera button is pushed, it starts taken pictures on its own. If i am in a loud setting i can't hear the camera go off so i have had to erase many blank pictures. Also when I want the sound off there is no way to turn off the sound of the camera. Recently my picture taking will not work at all because when i turn on the camera all i get is pink and green tones.. i can't even take a picture at all now. I do think it was over priced.

                                        I've had this phone for a few months and it replaced my Samsung V205. I had to get used to the texting on this phone, because if you press the camera button on the side by accident the phone will not respond to keystrokes. The screen is okay and is bright when you need it to be. Picture options are thrilling compared to the V205--it offters black and white, sepia, negative, embossed and sketched. It also has a nice flash enabled for the camera to take pictures in dark places. Also, if you hold the left volume button the flash will turn on and act as a flashlight.

                                        The only problem I had with this phone was when I bought a cover from E-bay and changed it. When I changed the cover, the camera feature stopped working all together. I thought I might have hit a wire when I changed the cover, but when I replaced the original cover it magically started to work again.

                                        I wouldn't reccomend this phone that highly because I personally believe it is overpriced, but overall it quite functional.
