Positives: - One of the best looking phones out there - Very quiet vibrate - Loved the external screen - Decent initial selection for ring tones and such Negatives: - poor reception (had full bars but would still hear crackling) - poor picture quality, yes, even for a phone - very quiet speakerphone - crackles badly Switched to the Sanyo MM-8300 during the first two week trial and I am very happy with this new phone. Although the Samsung was a very attractive phone, it's reception was too aweful. Sure a phone is great for pics, internet, etc... but when it comes down to it .... you need the reception.
