Samsung F700 Review
Samsung F700
18 January 2008
| Avg user rating:
The F700 sports a large touch-screen and slide-out QWERTY keypad. It may be on the chunky side, but it still looks and feels great - even if it is something of a poor man's iPhone.
The touch-screen interface is somewhat unresponsive, so the QWERTY keypad will come in useful. When the keypad is pulled out, the screen automatically transforms into landscape view. A virtual shortcut button in the centre of the screen leads to a host of different functions.
A speedy HSDPA connection, full slide-out QWERTY keypad and a three-megapixel camera, complete with auto-focus, makes the F700 a beast of a phone. It also boasts Google Maps and YouTube, found under the Applications section of the Entertainment menu button.
While there's no built-in GPS, Google Maps should get you close enough to your destination to ask for directions. Built-in HSDPA means speedy downloads and the camera is more than capable. The QWERTY keypad is a joy to use, but the touch-screen can prove a tad frustrating.
With a talktime of 270 minutes and a standby time of 300 hours, the F700's battery life is more middle distance than marathon.
Pros: The F700 houses a strong music player, a decent camera, comfortable keyboard, and the HSDPA connection is great for downloading music.
Cons: The lack of Wi-Fi is disappointing, as is the touch-screen.

Verdict: Its speedy connection makes downloading music easy and browsing the web fast. The touch-screen however, comes in a poor second to Apple's iPhone.
