Hi
I was thinking about buying this phone because on the specification list it says it can play real video player. Has anyone tried downloading video files from the computer to the u700 and can tell me about the quality of the video and whether you can watch it horizontally.

    I have had this phone now for about a week. Certain bits of it I love, the camera, the music, the lightweight. I am even getting used to the sensitive touch buttons.

    I do have two complaints though and I did ring Vodafone and they were not sure about the answers to these so have recommended me the G600 instead.

    My two complaints are.....If you listen to the DJ music (not the mp3) then you are not alerted to incoming calls. In addition to this the person calling you receives and engaged tone.

    Secondly, if I dial an automated phone, as in..press 1 to...press2 to... press3 to... and so on, then when I press the numbers for the different services the phone thinks I am dialling another number. It then says wrong number and cuts me off. Very frustrating.

    Vodafone were not sure if it is a fault on just the one I have or not.

    Soooo stick with it and put up with the two problems I have or change to the G600. Few days left to decide....

            This is by far the WORSE phone I ever got.Why?
            1.After two weeks the scroll wheel lost its function,
            2.The battery is disaster...200 h stand by?What kind of hours?Of 10 minutes each
            3.Like many others users, the paint on the side is coming off .
            4.The volume on the ring tone....the impossibility to read the screen in sunlight ...etc, etc, etc, etc.
            Oh and I forgot to mention, I sent the phone to repair at a Samsung center in Milano(i bought it in Italy), had to pay 30 euros...for shipping and guess what ...?after 3 weeks ..came back nice and sexy..exactly like I gave it...but with a nice sticker saying "warranty seal"....
            Samsung sucks big time..at least with this phone.....definetlly a no-no...

                  One other thing, does anyone know if there is a way to save the user name and password with the built in netfront browser for sites such like gmail and yahoo mail. It is such a pain to have to input it every time >

                    I just got the phone 2 days ago. One thing I noticed is there seem to be a maximum length to the emails you can download with the built in pop client. Even if I set the max download size to 500K, a simple text email only a few lines still gets cut off near the button. I can't seem to find the setting to change this anywhere, anyone have any ideas?

                      Does this phone support WLAN connection? I have controversial information about this point. Can anyone give an answer?

                        I have had the phone for 2 weeks and it's great to have. Stylish & fully loaded at the same time. Although, speakers are a bit soft but music sounds real good with headphones. Camera quality is excellent as well, but is a bit slow. Picture is saved after a slight delay after pressing the camera button, so one has to hold the phone still for a second or 2 after taking the picture. Touch keys are a bit more sensitive, but are fun when u get used to them. All in all, guyzzzz buy n enjoyyyyy.

                          Im a salesman in the mobile industry and deal with phones on a daily basis, and i think this phone is not as good as they make it out to be, 1. the interface is slow, 2. the crome effect (well thats excatly what it is "effect") i got the phone a month ago and most of the paint has come pealed off and the screen scratches easly, 3. The music quailty is not the best (very quiet), 4. You cant use mp3 as your message alert tone only the default tones, 5. I think the touch sensative buttons maybe to sensative.

                                        Silver paint coming off
                                        ========================

                                        Hi all,

                                        I was wondering if someone else is facing the same problem. I've had my phone for about 3 months now, and last week I noticed that the silver paint (mirrorish looking paint) that is on the left and right side of the screen is coming off. It's not so much scratched. Instead, it looks like small pieces of the paint are coming off. I am surprised by this, since all my older samsung cell phones didn't have such issues.

                                        Just trying to figure out if this has happened to others as well.

                                        Thanks,
                                        Mike
