Questions answered;
- the speaker volume is pathetic. Horribly pathetic
- No, you cannot install fm radio on this phone
- Use the wheel to zoom the camcorder (very crappy zoom at that too)
Another annoying feature of this phone is the restrictions when saving to your sim card. i.e - your contact list: it won't allow you to have a 'group' contact list, unable to assign a picture to a caller ID...the list goes on. Therefore you have to save everything to the phone's memory (a measly 40MB)to enable these functions. What's the point of an expandable memory card slot if you have to save pictures to your phone memory to assign a caller ID???????? Therefore, if your phone decides to die, you lose ALL the info (yes I know you can save a copy of your address book to the sim card, but that then means you have two entries (a duplicate) for each contact in your address list when you flick thru it. How ridiculous.
The only good thing about this phone is it's looks
The fact you cannot assign your own message alert tone (except 'midi' files) is extremely frustrating.
The touch buttons seem to work better when you don't mean to press them and you end up cancelling a function accidently.
Why the U700 has all these options but make it hard or innaccessible to utilse is just plain dissapointing for such a modern looking phone in a competitive market.
I've swapped back to my Samsung SGH E730.
It has FM radio, 100MB phone memory, superior camcorder (by a long way), preloaded games, superior battery life (still getting at least 3-4 days to each charge after 3 yrs), more compact design, a selection of 'skins' (or colour schemes) and all this was released nearly 3 years ago!!!!!!!!
What were you thinking with the U700 Samsung????????????
Avoid the U700 like rabies unless you only have 1 friend and need to answer, talk and hang up when he/she calls. Nothing else.

Ive had the phone for a few days now and I find it fantastic. I have the black version and from what I heard it doesnt have the paint peeling problem. Yes speaker isnt too loud but I use my Ipod for music anyway. To be honest the touch buttons are really good when you get used to them. The scroller is also quite comfortable and I prefer to use it instead of the 4 way navigation keys.Camera is also fantastic although video could be better. Overall very ood phone.
P.S. Does anyone know how to change the default storage for bluetooth recieved files to memory card instead of phone?
Thanks.

Hi, I've just got this phone and I have a few questions about connecting it to the computer.
I've installed the usb drivers and the pc studio and they were installed correctly. But when go to plug in my phone via the usb cable, my computer CANNOT detect the phone. The phone did not show up on My Computer and the pc studio couldn't detect it.
I also tried to remove the usb and re-insert it after 5 secs (while running the pc studio) like someone said in his posts. The pc studio couldn't detect it neither.
What can i do pls???

this phone looks really nice, but two of my friends have this phone and they are disappointed at the paint job. It wears out too quickly.

My man got me the phone. I was so excited, didn't know much about this U700 - until I found that it has no FM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love the buttons, I can work with them. I love the look..... but that love is overshadowed by the fact that it has NO FM!!!! Really now....
And that you can't use your own mp3's to personalise your incoming messages...
The ringtone on its max is stil low...
BUT IT HAS NO FM!!!
WHY??
So, I HATE IT... I have to change it...
its like having a good looking man who is just that, ONLY good looking. Nothing more, nothing less.
Can't work with that!!
I still love my Sony Ericsson, thank you very much!
