User interface is smooth and fast, and the sound quality is exceptional. Overall, I think this is a very nice phone, and in a much more appealing form factor than the enV, which we also considered. ]]>Feb 28th 2007 10:27AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/02/20/samsung-sch-u740-hands-on/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/02/20/samsung-sch-u740-hands-on/My main complaint is that there is no external location for headphones, but I use my iPod, so it's not a big deal. And this is definitely not for someone looking for Blackberry functions -- but it's fantastic for someone who texts a lot and needs to occasionally glance at and respond to email.]]>Feb 28th 2007 5:29PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/02/20/samsung-sch-u740-hands-on/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/02/20/samsung-sch-u740-hands-on/Mar 5th 2007 9:56AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/02/20/samsung-sch-u740-hands-on/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/02/20/samsung-sch-u740-hands-on/Mar 4th 2007 8:51PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/02/20/samsung-sch-u740-hands-on/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/02/20/samsung-sch-u740-hands-on/Mar 30th 2007 11:50AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/02/20/samsung-sch-u740-hands-on/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/02/20/samsung-sch-u740-hands-on/

enV Bluetooth 1.2 > u740 Bluetooth 1.1
enV 2.0 mp cam > u740 1.3 mp cam
enV has much larger more spaced apart keybad > u740 tiny crowded keypad

I'd gladplay pay $100 more for the enV if I had to, it's also a lot more durable than the u740.]]>Mar 31st 2007 9:52PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/02/20/samsung-sch-u740-hands-on/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/02/20/samsung-sch-u740-hands-on/Name

When I bought mine, the black was also
available but I chose the champaign. The black had kind of a plastic look that didn't appeal to me.
The keyboard:
Is not that bad to use (and I have huge fingers).If I were going to be texting all day long I might have concidered the env, but since I only text lightly with my daughter who is in collage, the env wasn't worth the extra bulk. I have been carrying around a Treo 650 for the last two years and
definately wanted something that was more pocketable.
The camera:
yes it has a lot to be desired, but if you want to take decent pictures, get a real camera. My Sony T1 way way out performs the env's camera and it's not much bigger the the u740. If you want some quick photo's of the damage that some idiot just did to your car, the u740 will do just fine. About the only thing that irritates me slightly about the u740 is the fact that Samsung for some odd reason decided to leave out A2DP support (for bluetooth stereo). Other than that, I'm very happy with it.]]>Apr 28th 2007 11:09AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/02/20/samsung-sch-u740-hands-on/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/02/20/samsung-sch-u740-hands-on/Nov 29th 2007 10:50PM
