Samsung SCH-U740 Review
After reviewing the LG enV, we had high hopes for the competing Samsung U740, since both devices offer a QWERTY keypad. Unfortunately, we came away from the U740 with a feeling that Samsung dropped the ball when designing this phone. The U740 shares none of the “high end” features found on the enV, and even the QWERTY keypad is difficult to use. The camera is only 1.3MP, the internal display is not QVGA, the stereo speakers are distorted at high volumes, and the keypad buttons are tiny and crammed together. The call reception ...

51. Samsung-u740

Just traded in my LG en-V for this phone, it really isn't any comparison I liked the LG BUT it is too large, and for me I find the U740 a better size, ease of texting and the voice to text is great. Quality wise the LG has it over the u740 but again the design of the u740 will out sell the LG, only downfall in design the way the numbers are laid out, other than that great phone, reception same as LG. Durability is a question, if you are a gorilla on you phone it hasn't been in the market long enough to rate this, I would keep this phone purchase for responsible phone owners.

I got my phone about a week ago and I've had no problems at all!. (There is a vibrate option your just a fucking retard) Great vibrate really powerfull camera is a bit week but hey if you need a camera go buy one. Dual screens are great and the hinge is very solid! I would highly recommend this phone, Verizon does not have the best service in my area but that's not the phones fault. great phone over all!

OK so I have had four phones in the last couple years and this one seems to bee the best. I didnt want the EnV because of its $200.00 price tag. So this is a good alternative. I feel it is perfect for my needs and has everthing I need. Music, Text Messages, and a good signal. Overall it has pretty good features and saticfied me greatly. The overal rating is a 9!

I've had this phone since the day it came out 3/14/07. I have not encountered any problems, yet. The speaker clarity is great and the vibrate mode has no problems. Even the battery life has tripled my previous moto crazer. The only draw back that I see with the phone is that the number buttons are a little bit small. I would def. recommend it anybody.

55. A Nice phone with no features

Although this phone has and impressive dual flip mode and is realtively small it has major problems. First off there is no vibrate mode and it cannot picture message. Also it is shaped. Overall fine for a beginner phone but realively useless with any special features

The idea for this phone is nice, but I can see this phone coming apart at the hinge due to inproper use by the owner. If you can care for it the phone will be great and offer alot of use out of it. Texting will be especially fun with either the qwerty keypad and Samsung's Speech to Text feature.
I'll keep my LG-VX9900 thought!!!
