Samsung Soul U900

the samsung soul is a smart looking phone easy to use and to navigate around the functions you want to use it dosen't take long to get use too using thanks to the menu on the touch screen bring everything up at once if you want to send a message it's there straigt away brillant phone for me.

only thing bad i'd say about the soul is the battery last's forever if you don't use it if you use it for phone call the battery only seem's to last five minites wish the battery lasted longer when you use this phone as it was made to be used.

i love the desighn, never had a touch screen before and the vibration feed back on the touch mad is great have never seen a phone with that a unique quality as far as i am concerned, i love the way the menu is set out and the key pad is better than i thought it would be, it's definetly one of the best phones i have ever tried, it took me about a day or to, to get completely use to it but once you no how to use it it's perfect

the baterry life if you put the vibration back onto it then it will drain part of the batterry and cause it has been made to look good unfortunately like every phone you have to be careful no to scartch it, where i use to chuck my other phone about you cant do it with this one cause i'm scared it's gonna break, the phone charging hole could be in a better place and i dont think this phone is built to last but only time will tell

Creating your own coloured theme for your phone is excellent. You just pick a picture (either from what's already on the phone or one of your own you've put on) and you can completely change the colour scheme and change your font colour etc to match it or completely contrast with it, and you can change the colour and the hue of the touch sensitive pad too. The camera quality is just brilliant! Just before i had the U900 i bought a 7 MP camera. I needn't have bothered. The photo quality of the U900 is so clear my camera's just been left in the box

Hmmm, well with the good there's always a little bit of bad. Firstly, the ringing/message volume is not very loud at all. Even on the highest level 7. And yes..i do know that if you use MP3 there are different sound level qualities, but i'm talking what's already on the phone as it comes. The volume when you ring someone too varies. Sometimes you can barely hear that you are ringing someone then it suddenly gets louder. Secondly, the battery life isn't that great. I tend to make sure that i charge overnight. Assigning a different txt message tone is quite a complicated process, i had to ask advice on a forum how to do it & it wasn't as straight forward as you'd expect. Previously owning the U600 and having my menu options as a list i tried to find out if this was possible instead of the icons on the U900. If you can change it i haven't found out how yet. In comparison to the U600 with it's smooth slide and simple navigation, the U900 is slightly more chunkier and not as smooth and simple. But it's a gorgeous looking phone with great features and a fantastic camera!

looks great, nice and slim, easy to handle.

you have to be very careful when using the touch screen as it is very sensitive. often i have sent a text when its not complete.

Great phone easy to use

battery life is really short

no loud ring tones. not user friendly

the phone looks really good and i like the 5mp camera

the battery bleeps low and then the phone is switched off within 5 mins, which is quite bad as i need my phone at work etc, also the video camera will only record for thirty seconds at a time.

Great camera, good looking phone, expandable memory (8GB MicroSD)

Battery life is terrible. Phone scratches very easily.

Looks good.

Poor bluetooth connectivity, inability to synchronise with pc studio software, less intuative to use than old SGH D600... also display not as good. Touch screen a pain to use as it often has a mind of its own!

Not much :-(

Battery Life Sound Quality Re-boots itself all the time beacuse the battery doesn't fit Can't see screen in sunlight

looks good, cool picture editing abilities

rubbish battery life. Alarm doesn't work in silent mode, can't silence in-coming calls.

Its slim, good looking, has good features and bluetooth is fast and efficient. Your can customise it to your own style and the camera is excellent.

It has awful battery life - lasts only a day or so before it just gives up on you - Im having to charge it nearly every day, which Iv never had to do with any other phone - and once the battery life drops to one bar, you've probably only got an hour left - the bars are a poor indicator really. The internal memory is poor, I can only store about 10 songs and 10 pictures before the memory is full.

everything

screen scratches very easily

the good points is that it is slim and always turns eyes at my phone

is that i cannot and a couple of others i know have the soul phone is that they can not get on to pc studio

Good looking and design, its easy enough to use.

The touch screen has a delay and its too easy to send an unfinished message by mistake when using the touch pad whilst composing a reply.. The ringing is too low even when turned up full as is the actual mp3 player itself and theres no proper smilies like on previous samsung phones.. The battery life is terrible, and the camera is'nt upto much, pictures often turn out blurry, trying to keep the phone still enough to take a decent pic is near impossible.

design

ring tone not very loud

For me this phone is ideal. It is small and ergonomically a pleasure to navigate around. I have had no trouble finding my way around the phones different abilities and have found all of them to be perfect for my needs. The small "Magic touch" pad at the bottom is not so small to make somebody with large appendiges struggle and makes using the phone, again simple, but also just extremely nice. The music playback features are very good and the camera/video functions are outstanding, provided you use the correct settings. This is an all round very good phone which doesn't excel when compared to specific functions on other models, however put into one package creates an overall feeling that you have all you need and far more.

There are really only two bad points that i have found so far. First is the memory, which is a little bit small for a phone with so much to offer. This can always be partially remedied by purchasing a memory card but with other phones out there with far exceeding onboard memories, it will always be in their shadow. Secondly if you like playing games then this phone may not be for you. It is ok for simple games, but i found it difficult to use games which require faster button pressing. The touch pad is too slow to support quick changes and the keypad seems too fragile. You do need quite a gentle touch to use it.

The phone looks good, has good picture quality with large screen.

Sometimes the touch screen is over sensitive. Signal not good but that may be the area I live in. Instructions not clear or easy to follow, had to find things by trial and error.

overall excellent, love touch screen (takes alittle to control it!) love the camera ,again when I got used to it. music player great organiser great

BATTERY!! BATTERY!!

Easy navigation,

texting to multiple recipients restricted, touch screen not ideal for my fat fingers

I like the touch screen navigation system. Quick and easy to use.

Battery life not has long has needed.

Great looking phone. Slick and slim and there isn't much like it around. HSDPA makes it a great buy.

The quality of sound during a call leaves a lot to be desired. Battery life is rubbish! Absolutely despise the heavy branding by Vodafone. The default Vodafone browser is atrocious. Best to download Opera Mini. Lack of wireless.

stylish and easy to use.

touch screen can cause you to select options that you didn't want.

Lovely funky looking phone, but over sensitive buttons are a nightmare!

i like the phone, i wanted it as soon as i saw it

the screen, finger prints

It looks cool and I like the vibration

The message sending to multiple people is tedious, my old Samsung I could just tick the ones I wanted, unless I'm doing it doing it wrong. Also, in the adverts it has a nice screen saver with the clock in the circle - try as I might - I can't find that either.

easy to use light to carry and very good photos

battery doesnt hold charge as long as i had hoped

the ohone looks great and the touch screen is really cool! It has a good sound from it also

no matter how often i charge it, it seems to have a poor battery life!

looks good and does what i want it to do comera is fab

navigation is very sensitive

Looks fantastic. Easy to use. Makes other people jealous !

none that I can think of.

Design

Volume is ridiculously low and the vibrate is not great. Battery lasts a day at maximum.

Very easy to use

Volume on ringtone could be better

Good camera

Really low ringtone, even when the loudest setting is on

just an all round great phone

some ring tones cant be heard to well even when volume to its highest

EXTRA SENSITVE TOUCH KEYPAD

I like the touch screen, and the quick use menu

not everything was explained well in the information book

easy to use even the touch screen pad, it looks good and takes good pictures.

phone is quite quiet ringtones/music etc. and it scratches easily

everythings good, brilliant phone, reccommended

Good design

Touch pad is very sensitive. Also the ring volume is low and when talking the sound seems to be low also

picture quality is really good

its a good phone it just needs to be a bit louder because its hard to hear people sometimes

compact and easy to use

music sound not good quality

very easy to use

battery life is not that great if you are making a few calls

Good looking phone with great features.

Touch screen can be a little too sensitive at times, trouble getting it to synchronise with my laptop via bluetooth.

i like the samsung soul due to its size, it fits nicely into my hand.

battery life

Looks good

Very quiet phone ring tones etc, camera not very good

like the options for colours on the key pad. music player is good.

screen too sensetive even on low setting, often going into unwanted menus, which can them take some time to get out of and back into the right one. Also limited short cuts. Personally i much prefer the W850i, which i had before.

there are non

the touch pad doesnt work well with the keys

The touch screen takes some getting used to

it looks good

it keep switching itself off when i close it its not loud i cant choose a message tone for it and it only rings 5 times then clicks into the answer phone

The camera on it is very good. menus are easily navigated.

ringtones are very quiet. the battery life is short before having to charge it again.

Looks great and quite easy to use.

You cant turn the ring volume up very loud.

It looks very nice, its small and compact. The 5 pixel camera is excellent. You can download and listen to your tunes and it has a built in radio which is great !!

The only problem I have with the phone, is that, because it has a small touch pad, if you even gently touch it by accident, you could be texting or emailing someone you dont want to !! It is very touch sensitive.

all good

nothing bad

It pretty good all round, looks qualtiy, good cam & pretty good UI. customisation is also very good.

Memory card access leaves a lot to be desired, & the touch screen needs a delicate touch.

easy to navigate. good quality camera

slow while texting.doesnt respond sometimes. still not found the apostrophy!

gorgeous

a nightmark to text on

Easy to use

Battery life is not long

Music sounds good. camera is excellant phone looks good, slim design

nothing really

looks good - can do lots of things for you - if you can work out how

keypad / touchscreen not that easy - navigation around functions not logical to me

looks good ....

the ring tone volume is the worst iv ever had .i can never hear my phone i always get missed calls. i thought the stand of this phone would have bin better cause of the big hipe about it .very disapointed with it.

smart looking easy to use after a few tries. great camera fantastic photos

very low volume hard to hear ringing tones

clarity and funtional

heavy and brick apeal not small and compact software issue when you dial by entering number from key pad phone turns off

lovely design, touch screen is great

the signal on this device isnt very poor compared to the nokia devices

the battery life, the sound quality, the slider has become wobbly already and ive only had 6 weeks

Touch Screen, Camera, Micro SD

Everything Else

Good New design and very easy to use. The touch screen pad is very easy to use.

The battery need to improve with the next samsung, im having to charge my phone up every night!

Good quality,good navigation

Battery life

It looks good got quite alot of memory camera quality is good

its not very loud for music scratches very easy the keypad is confusing the battery doesnt last very long

Looks great, easy to use, fab camera.

Battery life is poor, feel like i'm always having to recharge! Navigation touch screen is very sensitive i keep sending texts too soon!!!!

I took my phone on holiday - and used the camera for all of my pictures. The software to upload them onto my computer was also really easy to use.. And I'm no wizz kid on a computer!

The battery is not brilliant, and could do with lasting a bit longer - a tip is to take the vibration down to minimum. Also I have had problems with using the touch screen when sending texts - it's easy to accidentally hit send before you've finished.

very clever phone with lots of customising possibilities. high quality camera. looks great and feels stirdy whilst not being too cumbersome

difficult to send txts when not using predictive texts. it is too easy to send the txt by mistake with the touch panel. another negative is the lack of free games.

Love the theme option of creating your own Music plays well Calls are clear Easy to use

Battery Life is really bad Because of the shiny design, scratches show up easily

touch screen

cumulative call numbers/duration

plenty of different things on the phone, took some getting used to but enjoy using it now, takes good photos and thw music sounds good too.

the battery doesn't seem to last long i seem to be having to put it on charge a lot

It has features installed in the phone dont even work and are not yet compatible with the phone, plus the battery life is terrible
