    Razr thin, but sidekick style, sch-u740

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  May 24, 2007 | 12 out of 14 found this Samsung SCH U740 Alias review helpful

    Pros: Light weight, thin, sensor buttons, GREAT camera, screen, looks.

    Cons: Hard to first get used to, but really easy once you do.

    I got this phone as an update and let me tell you, it is the most AMAZING phone EVER!! i thought the env was way too big so i got this cause i am a texting machine! it was at first hard to get used to the buttons, but honestly after a day, it was all... ingraved in my head. It gets no fingerprints unlike the chocolate, and still has music and all the looks and style of any other phone. The speaker phone is GREAT! it is clear and the phone has a lot of memory to store all of your favorite photos or music. It also has a flash which comes VERY much in handy. All in all, this phone is worth the day to get used to, and at 100 bucks, it is a bargain!!! Read more Less

    Pros: Full Keyboard, still has flip, looks amazing

    Cons: keyboard takes a little getting used to becasue the keyboard is small.

    i got this phone for 70 bucks. i love the full keyboard, and you get v cast and the internet for a month for free which is nice. texting is so easy and so is calling, that was why i got this over then envy, when im on the phone i like it to actually ...reach my mouth and not have the speaker be on my cheek. oh yeah and this is SUPERR thin. the pictures are ok, and the video is only 15 seconds but its all still good. buy it.

    LOVEEEEEEEEEE IT!!!!!!

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  May 31, 2007 | 4 out of 4 found this Samsung SCH U740 Alias review helpful

    Pros: Overall look, full keyboard, thin, lightweight

    Cons: A little tricky to use, but easy once you get use to it

    I love this phone I got it almost three weeks ago & was so happy that they came out with an all black one cuz the gold was kinda cheesie to me. I liked the whole aspect of the dual flip and the camera was great. But, it was a tad bit hard to figu...re out at first but now I'm a pro. Read more Less

    Great overall, lacking some features.

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jun 8, 2007 | 3 out of 4 found this Samsung SCH U740 Alias review helpful

    Pros: Small, Light, qwerty keyboard, Nav system

    Cons: Texting takes a while, VERY Fragile.

    After using this phone for about a month I have only 1 or 2 real complaints about it. I love so many other features I'm just gonna suck it up though! I switched from a Palm Treo 650. The issues I have with the SCH-U470 is the lack... if a "recent texts" feature. My treo had a window that popped up when you composed a new text or placed a new call that would show you the 10 most dialed or most texted contacts. This was so useful, it really sucks not having this feature. It takes forever to compose a text message with this phone! It takes an average of 10 key presses to compose a text!?!? There is no way to assign a shortcut key for a new text message, only for the inbox! The other issue I have is when you "reply&a
    mp;quot; to a text message you cant see the message you are replying to! The phone only shows you the message you are currently composing! These are pretty annoying oversights by Samsung especially considering the emphasis they put on texting with this phone? Oh well, the good still outweighs the bad so I'll keep it until handspring comes out with a treo worth buying.     Read more Less

    Love it!

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Oct 21, 2008 | 1 out of 1 found this Samsung SCH U740 Alias review helpful

    Pros: Keyboard, slim, double flip

    Cons: Questionable durability, keyboard takes some getting used to

    I love this phone. However, I had it for 11 months and the audio stopped working on phone calls, but the speaker phone worked. So I question the durability of the phone a little but. Verizon did send me a new one because it was still under warranty, ...so that was good.I would definitely recommend this phone. Read more Less

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Oct 8, 2008 | 1 out of 1 found this Samsung SCH U740 Alias review helpful

    Pros: Most everything

    Cons: Battery

    This is a great phone. I like the design, ease of use and the way the keyboard flips each way. It makes texting much easier and faster. The battery doesn't last as long as I would like, but buy it, you will like it

    schu740A.K.A THE ALIAS

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jul 7, 2008 | 1 out of 1 found this Samsung SCH U740 Alias review helpful

    Pros: v-cast,great mem-dual flip ,

    Cons: 15 sec video,record time

    BEST PHONE I EVER OWNED first of all i loved the picture quality right down to prints the micro sd card easily goes into the laptop and your videos and pics show up in under 3 secs.with all kinds of editing tools.And the picture quality from plugging... the micro sd card into a color printer is amazing.The dual flip is great for texting or talking seperating the two functions.The v-cast music player is great with clear sounds and easy use. overall dont pass it up if your a text master .I went into the store to buy the envy and saw the aliasand asked about it the sales people told me not to buy it cause it looks fragile and i would say if u have young kids get insurance if u decide to buy..so i weighed the options and the size and purchassed the winner by a mile the ALIAS sorry Envy..

    Questionable

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Mar 13, 2009

    Pros: Clear pics/video

    Cons: Keyboard, microSD capacity low

    Verizon sold me a dud of a phone! The microSD card can only be max 2GB, and nowhere in the specs or manuals doees it tell you that. Went out and wasted $35 on a 4GB card for nothing. Doesn't play video as promised either. Use of the keyboard woul...d take a rocket scientist to use with all the switching and back tracking on the keyboard. I bought it for easy use and a TTY capable phone but got robbed! Stand-by time 8.3 days? Not even close! Have to recharge after 8.6 hours being on and not being used. Read more Less

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Mar 5, 2009

    Pros: slim

    Cons: breaks easily

    I love my phone, but its was in my pocket and i managed to bump something, now u can't read the front screen and i hate that , but it was my fault. I really like this phone especially because every letter has its own key.

    suck

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Mar 2, 2009

    Pros: it has a big screen, pic takens good,skinny

    Cons: its front screen flashes yellow when the buttons are on lock and if you barley push the audio buttons, takes a bit to get used to texting,sometimes it screws up your mesesges,you got to take a big enough pic to fit both the screen in landscape and in portrait mode but still cuts some of the pic out.

    Ive had the phone for a while. It ain't all that great cause if you don't be real real careful you will break the battery port. i had to get a new alias cause the batt port broke. I hate it after a while it get really annoying the back of it ...where the back that holds the batt in pops my speaker button broke off, SOOOO all im saying is get it if you wont but theres better phones out there this 1 is like lil brats to have 1 to show that they can show something off not me cause it was new and i try to try out all the newer phones to see how they r Read more Less
