Samsung Glyde Review

The Glyde U940 is Samsung’s first touchscreen phone for Verizon and is in direct competition with the LG Voyager that was released almost 6 month earlier. It is based on the GSM Samsung F700, with similarities in style ...

13. hate is a strong word??

30 Jun 2009 by kello

33.3%3.3out of 10

I HAAAAAAATEEEE this phone. I replaced it twice. The touch screen was..just a screen since it didn't respond. It is a very good anger-using-device though because i get to throw it against stuff.
Camera didn't really work for me either. It would do the auto-focus thing and take pictures out of focus. Ironic much? Also when using the keyboard, it would randomly have the cursor jump around which..didn't make sense at all so my texts would come out looking very jumbled. All and all, I hate this phone.
Also, this phone gave me low self esteem. (well, not really but I have a point) The keys on the keyboard were very small and...flat, for lack of a better word, so I felt as though I had very fat fingers as I would press two buttons at once.


I'm even back to my old enV. The original enV.





i now get to kill it.
the non-touch screen, the camera, the keys...darn near everything

14. worst phone ever. literally

26 Jun 2009 by mel

30%3out of 10

There aren't enough bad things I could say about this. I've never had so many issue with a cell phone.. it's so bad... i'm getting used to NOT USING MY CELL PHONE! That's how often it works. Touch screen: horrible. And obviously it's not just me.. all reviews on this phone say the same thing.. the sensitity on it has a mind of its own. I have to literally fool with it, clean it, fool with it, clean it for about half an hour before I can send one successful text message. This phone is a joke. Seriously.





it has a keyboard. it's touch screen (high tech)
sensitivity on touch screen is a f reakin nightmare. The phone has a mind of its own. It calls people on its own.. it jumps around from screen to screen on its own. While i'm attempting to write a text it'll jump to antoher screent. It literally has a mind of its own..it doesn't need an owner to function. Just sitting still it picks up commands!!!

16. horrible phone

9 Jun 2009 by dantomjoe1

13.3%1.3out of 10

i've had this phone since nov and nothing but troubles! first the battery didn't work, so i had to buy a new one then send in my receipts to samsung to get reimbursed. then the screen detached from the ribbon. verizon was gracious enough to give me a new curoisty phone. then the touch screen decided to do its own thing whenever it wanted to - i pressed contacts so the phone decided to go to the web...so i sent it back for repair and it came back worse than ever. i called them and they said it must have gotten wet or dropped for this to happen, but i can promise, that this is not the case. i've been dealing with it and now the screen detached yet again from the ribbon. so, with a phone less than 6 months old, verizon can't help me and now neither can samsung...i spent over $200 on this phone and i'm now going to write to "mr. samsung". what does one do now when no one will honor this phone? i see by the reviews and 99% of the folks who have bought this horrible phone have all the same issues that i have, so it's not me....

Thsi phone looks real sweet but it has so many glitches. First. it calls about 4 random people atleast each day. Then the battery is so bad that it will be fully charged and i might turn it off at school and after school it will be dead or have like 1 or 2 bars. then it will sometimes the touch screen wont respond when you press send message or it will hit the wrong one. Finally it makes me want buy a ringtone the screen never responds unless you touch it like 60 times. I've counted.

19. UGH!

56.7%5.7out of 10

I've had this phone for about 6 months now. Worst 6 months of my life. I was so excited with the design and idea of this phone. And when I bought it, it seemed to work fine. A month went by and the glitches started. The touch screen is dreadful. Especially on low battery. I can't even function without the keyboard because texting and even calls are impossible with the touch screen. The update helped with the precision of the screen to a POINT. But it's still frustrating. My battery only lasts me for the day, so I can't even leave the house without my charger. You have to press the screen with your fingertip because it's not sensitive enough to press with your nail like the DARE was. But the keyboard is nice, and perfectly sized, though adding special characters takes a little extra effort. Over all, this phone is not worth your trouble. Invest in an LG DARE. All of my friends love it.

20. Heavenly appearance, satanic phone

27 Apr 2009 by I HATE THE GLYDE!!!

40%4out of 10

well lets see where do i begin.  i honestly somewhat like this phone but at the same time i am currently trying to find a new phone to replace it.  i bought this bc my cousin had it and i used it a few times and i really liked the keyboard and the touch but now since i own it, it is just terrible.  The touch always messes up, you press one thing but it always hits the 'back' or the bottom where all the icons are when ur at the main screen.  overall design nice everything else BAD.  i highly recommend that anyone looking at this phone to buy, not to buy, u will thank me and all the other people that have to go through with this phone.  *oh just remembered it calls people in your pocket and if u have a really obsessive gf dont get bc im sure ur gonna have other girls in ur phonebook and it will call them then u will get in trouble like i did*





design
everything else
lock button and a higher performance touch screen i think would solve all of the problems
