Samsung E720 - User Reviews

  • It was great phone ,no doubt about it

  • I actually used to have a toy Samsung E720 (same design but it's a dummy phone) back in 2006/2007 to 2013! So much memories!

  • Its a great phone even in 2018 but one thing i hate about it that the date only goes to 31/12/2016 (is there a way to fix this)

  • Used this phone from 2006 - 2014. Great phone! Has been dropped countless times, but never failed me.

  • vreau sa iau

  • I had this phone since it was released and it's still going strong, it's my spare phone so last 6 years about 10 of my friends were using it. For those who can't find data cable, why don't you just use bluetooth? Samsung PC studio software is easy to find.

  • I had send my comments on 23-11-2007 & today i am again sending my comments that i am using this phone near about five years. The only thing bad is that i have't it's data cable. I found this phone very good.

  • i want to buy it in bangladesh in dhaka city. but how?

  • Hi there ... does anyone know if I can permanently change the font size to large on the samsung e720, as it only lets me change it for one message, then reverts back to the small text size?

  • Good quality phone ! Good ergonomics & performance. The only bad thing is - battery. Cannot expect more than 3 days ( even with the new one ). It drains out even if the phone is switched off.

  • at it's time it was revolutionary; for me at least; I love it so much...this is the best looking phone ever....I just bought it again and I am loving it more than my iPhone

  • I love this phone...My uncle gave his E720 a few months ago and its amazing. I recommend it to kids. It doesn't break easily and it has all the things you need.

  • had this phone a long time ago and had to revert back to it due to malfunctions with newest phone. i forgot how fun this phone really is, for a 1MP camera, its fantastic quality even compared to the up to date 8 megapixel camera's. it does everything necessary for a phone plus a little bit more for fun!! fantastic!!

  • it was the best handy, i ever had. It works every time.

  • hello??a little hepl pls.. oppinion pls...

  • hye..i own this phone long time ago..but i'am still using it..and i want to change new cover can someone tell me how?or want to suggest something??pls.....pls...as soon as possible.

  • Yes it`s very strong in every way, (sorry for my english) but I somehow menage to break it :(. now I have blackberry but I still won that phone.

  • When charging my mobile phone on the power point,it swiches off after severals minutes (30 min.) Why that? Thanks.

  • this phone is too strong

  • this was a great mobile. i loved the screen,even though small but still very clear.and the 1 meg camera took surprisingly good pictures because of the really bright led flash. the mp3 buttons and front screen really rocked.great phone.shame i still like it today, wish i kept it,for keeps.well done samsung

  • i ve used ds mble n its gud bt the worst part s i we cnt changed its bdy like nokia ones it get scratch. orels strong phne.

  • this phone is very strong!

  • Yeah you're right! Too bad for you that u broke it :P

  • Great phone, I had it like 3 years. The camera quality is actually pretty good for such an old phone. Though the performance and handle is great aswell. Too bad I broke it by accident...

  • Thats best mobile what ever i have here is 90MB.omfg.

  • Since it is not yet 6 years since 2005, please come back in 2 years time and try again.

  • Can this unit download java apps. bigger than 300kb? Not just an little small java, useless!

  • Can this unit download java apps. bigger than 300kb? Not just an little small java, useless!

  • Nice Basic phone & Nice Look. Have Some problem in Blue tooth & Battery. otherwise this is GOOOOOOD

  • best phone i ever had,over 2 years i used it,nowi'm changing it becouse it's just old..:)

  • This is a great phone !! had it for 2yrs almost and NEVER EVER gave me trouble. Dropped it quite often but still remained functional.... the reason why i'm changing it is now the buttons are getting stuck and it takes like 5 mins to write a msg, especially the HESH key.

  • Excellent flash!

  • Stupid phone it is easy to lowbattery

  • it great phone, i have one and its still has great looking

  • nice looking i liked mine. not bad camera pictures. good little phone. still looks good. nice buttons for mp3 on the front.

  • Stupid phone it is easy to lowbattery

  • It has past 3 years but still is the best looking clamshell .

  • Absolutely legendary phone, had it nearly 4 years, its been bashed and droped on building sites and always stayed strong. But it finally got killed by a bottle of sprite last week. R.I.P E720

  • Fantastic phone, I've had mine for over three years now, and I'm almost tempted to buy a new one now that mine is finally giving up, instead of upgrading to a newer phone. I make a lot of calls, and the battery still lasts for almost a week. The design is fantastic, and all over I sometimes find it hard to believe this phone was actually bought in 2005, cause it's better than lots of the newer phones.

  • got it 2006 and still kicking well...usual weak battery but software fast enough...gonna get a newer phone with sd card for technology sake gotta move on...if avilable buy it..hahahaha

  • have to agree with anon below me, amazing phone thank you

  • I have had this phone for three years, it is easy to use, and has everything you really need. the number of times i have dropped it and even dropped it in a lake and still works perfect. The Camera isn't great but it is sufficient. A phone i would definatly recommend

  • This is a really good phone! spent my money wisely on this one, had it 3 years and its never failed on me. Dropped it countless times both when closed and open, never froze... Sadly the end is near, the reception is dying slowly, he's had enough :P G900 for me Thank you E720 !

  • actually i had this phone three months ago... Now i have a problem with this unit..Why? this is because it will now automatically answer calls even i am not pressing any buttons or i am not opening this flip like phone.... does any one know how to disable this feature? Please help me..... tnx

  • I've bouth this phone yesterday. And can some1 tell me where i can DOWNLOAD FREE GAMES for this phone and TRANSFERE it whit bluetooth can i ? Thanks contact me : [email protected]

  • Iv had this phone for years now and it is brilliant. I mean gawd u all seem to have soo many problems. If you want it to go silent hold down the frickin hash key where u wud usually dial a number. It has a good camera, good mp3 player, good headphones, good memory space for a phone without a memory card. easy to text and phone people on. Easy to store numbers in groups and that kind of thing. buy it if u want a simple to use phone that is pretty resistant to being dropped but still has technology like bluetooth!

  • how can I silent the ringtone without rejecting the call? sometimes I want it to stop ringing, but I don't want to reject the call 10x

  • Hi, I am using Samsung E720 for the last 2 years and find excellent, but I have a problem and find no solution. Actually I�ve misplaced my data cable so it�s a bit problem 4 me cos I got nowhere, if any friend could help me in this regard I'll be thankful. Thank u

  • I've been using this phone for quit sometime now, to me its just perfect. The camera is beeter that all those more expensive or so to say better feature phones.

  • I tried charging my E720 with my LG charger (why do they have the same connection?) I wondered why the torch light was on, then realised that I had used the wrong charger and quickly unplugged it after about 5 mins, but the E720 seems dead now. Does anyone know a fix, or have I fried the battery? Have I fried the phone too? Email answer to - [email protected] Need advice asap thanks all.

  • Hi, I have this model phone and I'm very fond of it. It has a wonderful design and I plan on keeping it for much longer. I only have one problem.. I cannot add music or buy ringers. I understand to put music on via bluetooth it must be MP3 and I only have itunes so I would have to convert them. What I would like to know is if there's a way i can buy ringers ON my phone...can anyone help me out?

  • I really like the design of this phone and I want to buy it. The only problem is that I saw is in the shop today (it cost about 150 euros) and the keyboard had normal letters ("abc") as well as some other symbols (most probably Korean). Is that normal? I've never seen such a thing before. Thanks for answering!

  • Hello! PLS help me if you can - the ones that bought it. Can you assign mp3 as ringing tone at this phone? Thank you very much.

  • hey guyz i hav been uzin dis cell 4 over 1 year n no complainz here.....................da fon completely rocks!!

  • to get the phone off quiet mode just hold down the # key for 5 seconds

  • i relly need help for any who has the samsung e720 plz tell me how do you get the phone off quite mode

  • i really love this phone. i've had it for 4 months and dropped it like 50 times. it's pretty and works very well. i wouldn't trade it for the N95.

  • i had this phone for about a year now and it never give me any trouble the features is great. the phone have everthing that a man could ever had

  • I have the E720 for 3 months now and I must say it's a beautiful phone and it works fearly well. but I do have some isues with the reminder (organizer)feature.It's very cumbersome to work with, it requires you to punch in so much information for a simple reminder, unlike Nokia which goes straight to the point, date/time and done, and on top of that there is't a option where I can repeat the same reminder bimonthly. Does anyone know if there is an option where you can reprogram or modify the software on this phone so I can customize it to meet my needs? If not, I will have to change back to a Nokia. Sad though, because its a beautiful phone.

  • This is a great phone. I like every bit of it apart from the fact that it can't change message tone. Assist me on how to get its USB cable.

  • I have had this phone for 2 years it is wonderfull .عاليه,every tume ilook at it i feel love it still even i cant determine to change it and i wait for same model of samsung which look like it but if any one knows the code of install java games tell me please because u have not the code to install gava games please help me.my email: [email protected] tanx.

  • This phone is amazing, ive had it for a year and a half now and havn't had one single problem with it!! I have droped it hundreds of times and nothing has gone wrong. The camera and video quality is great and it has loads of memory so you dont even need a memory card. It is so simple to use also with very good keys to navigate around the features. The phone is ideal for anyone its a really tough phone with great flash which i use often as a torch as you dont need to be on camera or flip it up to use it. The battery life is really good it lasts me 5 days and i use the phone alot!! Anyone who has said anything bad about it or has had any problems has obviously got a defaulted phone. This is a fantastic phone i also take all of my photos with it as its very good quality for a phone. So go out and get yourself one!!

  • great phone only thing wrong with it is that i can't seem to change the message tones from the pre programmed ones would like to put some downloaded tones on it for messaging does any one if it is possible and if so how to do it?

  • my phone is displeying wrong sim this just happen when i was making calls it just hook then i try to put it off it refuse i now refuse the battry after i on it.it contineun diplay wrong sim so what would i do

  • Hey, I got the e720 its am very beutiful mobiele i love it

  • Yeah, this phone is good. I've lost count on how many times I've dropped it and it still works. It's the strongest and best phone I've ever had.

  • I have this phone for 6 months, and the single inconvenient is that it can`t ring and vibrate at the same time when a phonecall comes in. Oh, and it doesn`t have a memory slot, but it has 90Mb internal memory. The battery life is quite good (3 days in average). Above all these, it is a great phone!

  • does anyone know how repair or reprogrammed the samsung e720? please email me.. thanks

  • Wow!!!!! lt is realy good phone. l do not see anything strange in it since l bought it 1 year ago. l dropped it 3 times but nothing happened and still working properly. Thank you guys for nice work. l recomend other to go for samsung.

  • Hmm... Good phone indeed. It's strong too, once o spilt my toner on it, but after i dry it the phone can be used again.. I said wow..!!! amazing man.. i love this phone, and it is the first phone i have with external MP3 keys.. well, wht can i say ? GOOD..!!!!!

  • goods: robust shell, resistant to abuse of asphalt, walls, rain and sweat. solid features for a 2 year old. camera flash is a great plus in the dark. battery life is 3 days of light use. pleasing to look at. manly. errors and malfunctions free for two years now. bads: sound of the speaker is awful, i have trouble hearing the person I talk to 60% of the time. battery drains fast when I use mp3 player or write text messages much. I would prefer a larger screen as well.

  • This is a very strong phone, i dropped it in a wet drain, left it in the wash twise n left it out in the rain, And it still worked perfectly, the only thing is the software but its easy 2 use once u no how. ANd the tinny speakers. Overall a good phone

  • Such a brilliant phone...I've had it for a year and a half now-it's excellent in every way!!! It's got so much memory-I've had 1000+ photos on it for ages!!!! Great quality for a 1mp camera! It's very well built too...I've dropped it loads and spilt water on it, but it still works perfectly! A great phone!!!

  • Aviod! i had to have the phone repaired 6 times. Terrible software, aweful customer care. Is a great phone when its working but turns off randomly and the call and msg functions fail constantly, do not buy samsung, all their phones have flawed software! Avoid!

  • used this phone around 6months.. so far no problem with this phone. pros. -good screen resolution -nice external OLED screen -user friendly cons. -no radio -poor voice clarity -low ringing sounds -can't assign. mp3 o downloaded sound as msg tone

  • It is really a great phone!I've had it for a year and I wouldn't trade for any phone in the world!Buy it and you won't regret it!

  • Wil someone please help me with the following questions. I will really appreciate it. Ques 1:How long do you have to charge a NEW phone? (my charger remains red although the battery life is full). Ques 2:When someone call and they name is in your phonebook, does the name show on the screen? (only the number is showing up). Ques 3:What can I do to get the person name to show? Ques 4:How do I download ringtones, wallpapers, music etc.? Ques 5:What site can I download ringtones, wallpapers, music etc. from? Thanks in advance. SF

  • My Father have bought an E720 and i have also used it. The result of Camera and video is very good. flash is very usefull at night time.

  • omg ive had this fone for jus ovr a yr nd it turns it self off randomly nd the call quality is rubbis. avoid!

  • You can get this phone at Quazzu.com for US$167.99. This is the cheapest place I saw this phone and the cutomer service is way beyond excellent. The prices are really good on that site.

  • does the phone have usb cable? Is it included in the phone�s kit? If yes, why is it not included when I bought the phone? If no, where can I buy one? thanks. =p

  • I brought this handset over a yr and a half ago and it is the best handset i have ever had, The battery is excellant, the mp3 and camera are wicked. And the handset is sooooo strong. I have dropped it on concrete so many times and have also dropped it down the stairs and it has had no effect on the quality of it at all. I work with handsets and have never had a call about anything bad with this handset its 150% Fantastic.

  • the title 'multimedia phone' fits this phone perfectly. it is absolutly perfect in terms of its extra features (ie video, mp3, java etc) but lacks common essentials. (ie vibration and ring, POOR sound quality etc) i wouldnt recommend unless you use your phone only for txts.

  • Ive had this phone for a couple of weeks now, but i cant figure out how to transfer videos from my pc to my phone. i know the video has to be an mp4 file,but it still dosent work. if anyone could help me, i would apreciate it a lot.

  • hello i have the E720 it is a great phone but my mate sent me a media message i tried to retreive it but it keeps failing how do i set it up.....can some one plz help me!!! email me with advise on [email protected] thank x

  • it is a really great phone.you can put everything on it:music,pictures at very high quality,mp3-wich sound preety good,and baterry lifetime is excellent.i'am using it a lot.honestly the problem regarding conversation qauality depends on the network.if you have vodaphone it will a great job.it's very easy to connect it to the computer.

  • How do i transfer java games from my PC to the mobile?

  • i really like this phone never had any problems all barring one! when you go to send a message it gives you the option to send to recent recipiants which is fine but my list is so long now and some of my friends have changed there numbers but there old number is still in the recipiants list all i wanna know is how do you delete them? anyone help? thanx.

  • i have a d410 and a e720.The old d410 has a better sound in conversation.e720 has great features.many of you noticed that e720 has a poor sound in conversation.it,s true.i noticed something else:view angle of dispaly is also better on d410.Conclusion:after almost to year d410 remains a gorgeous phone!

  • i can't get my photos from phone to pc......have got usb cable but nowt happening.....im not very good with phones so if anyone can help?????

  • it's an exeptional phone, dude if u have money for it, don't hold ur thoughts, its great, but when ppl call u u hear them bit hard, but the mp3 are great on the speaker, no problem at all, pictures are awsome, and u can put 22 songs and 2 clips of 1 min on ur phone as i had, but thats the memory full so no space for pictures. games rock, aplciation rocks, what's not to like? :)

  • I need help plz!!! I have a problem with this phone. I can't download any ringtones. when i try to got to the internet it said service restricted. I can't send pic or videos either.

  • Pretty good phone except for one MAJOR difficulty. How do you get it to stay on predictive text?????? Drives me crazy every time I send a text to have to fiddle around for ages getting it on to predictive. Also, the previous model had the facility to set the alarm for a week ahead. This one is 24 hours only. Very annoying. Another step backwards????

  • BIG SH...T :(( Very poor reliability (second breakdown just out of the warranty, i just have to trash it...), bad sensibility, bad speaker, it's such a deception !!!

  • this phone is sh...t ! i've had it for almost 2 years now,and the micro and speaker quality is the worst ever, even the guy of the shop tells me it's too bad to be normal,.for example,when i speak,not shout,people can barely hear me,and i can't understand what they say coz the sound is so muffled,so i sent it back to samsung,and they re sent it to me ,saying it's normal.so they only reseted the memory,didn't change the speaker AND DISACTIVATED THE MICRO,i had to send it back again. the two times they sent it back to me in a paper,no box,with a wire around it, samsung is a joke, i'll never buy samsung again.

  • I want to get this phone but i see alot of good comments and some bad comments about the sound quality. well i was wondering if someone can tell me how many pictures and mp3s it can hold bc i dont want to buy it for no reason. email me [email protected]

  • Well ive had the E720 for around a couple of weeks and i LOVE IT! Its so stylish and has great features , Bluetoothing Pictures takes Seconds! , Videos take a little longer. The only problem i have found is i take several black pictures in my pocket because of the button on the side! Reading Previous review people have noted that the Sound quality whilst talking to someone is poop on the other end. Well Just for the record mine is absoulotley fine! Hope this helped! xx

  • i'v had the E720 for just over 12 months and recently have started having problems with it. none of the buttons are working when i switch the phone on. this is really frustrating as i cannot use the phone anymore, i can't even receive anything because i can't enter my phone lock password. any ideas on what i can do to solve this problem or how i can get it repaired? thanks

  • did u no this phone can have video as its background

  • my phone is the best i have orderd the usb 4 it and every thing i just wish it can hold more songs the 11 to 12 the most samsung phone that i seen that heald the most songs waz x800 it heald bout 14 songs well duce

  • Hey I need help! My friend took the phone off of me and she went and turned it onto silent, I tried to get the sound back but the way she did it it wont give me the sound back. I've tried EVERYTHING. Someone please help me, it will be very much appreciated.

  • hey, can the e720 play mpeg files, or ay other type of video files that you upload from your computer to the phone? or is it the e730 that can do that?

  • The E720 for me is fantastic. It has loads of memory and it is really easy to use. My mum has the E530, and they're both pretty much the same. But, I'd go for the E720 because the shape of the E530 is difficult to use. I have an E720 and the only thing that annoys me is that I can't remember how to multitask it! IF you know how, please e-mail me and tell me, because it's quite annoying sometimes! Thanks!

  • This phone is amazing! I haven't got it myself but my mum has it and now she has a new contract phone she is giving it to me. It is about 8.5 cm long (when closed) and weighs 90 grams. The features on this phone include- four games, calculator, alarmclock, camera with 2 BRIGHT lights on the front of the phone, mp3 player with two decent dance tunes along with the other ringtones on the phone, the internet where you can download FREE ringtones (decent songs), mms and sms,find out the time in different parts of the uk and the rest of the world and LOTS more. The great thing about this phone is the picture quality and the camera is AMAZING! The only thing i could put down about the phone is that it has a small ok button in the middle of the arrow buttons but if you have small fingers (like me!) it shouldn't be a problem. on the display when you flip the phone down you can have either a picture you choose or a picture of a clock and there are LOTS of designs you can choose again with amazing picture quality. The advantage is that you do not actually have to open the phone to play a song on the mp3 as it has 3 buttons in the front - play, skip back and skip forwards.

  • I have a problem with my e720 when call register is full. At the moment vhen you press the answer key it will restart. Then you must enter call register thru the menu and delete all received/sent/missed calls. I am very mad when I have to do that. When you have a lot of messages, sometimes it will restart when you try to send one. Microphone is awfull. This could be very good phone but there are some things that makes me angry with it.

  • i have had the fone just over 6 months and i have fond the screen smashed with extremely little impact, the shop are not interested therefore i av stuck with a �190 fone with a smashed screen, don't know which fone to get next.. any recomendations...

  • it is a very good fone but the onli thinjg about it is the mp3 player it isn't that loud every thing else about it is gr8.the memory iz mint da camera iz ok.GO SAMSUNG!!!!

  • good little phone ,but 1 negative point is the incoming call (the sound is pore ,not loud enough )even we you put it at his max. and one more thing the text is to small . all the other things are nice . the + is the mp3,small phone,en the color screen inside.the battery i don't now it yet becaus e have the phone only 3 days!,i hope the battery has a long stand by !

  • this phone is ace! its a realy good phone thats easy to use! same as some1 else said the mp3 is not that loud but i love this phone!! thanks/x/

  • I bought this phone in July 2005 and I must say I'm very pleased with it. The design is OK, the colours are superb, the photo and video camera is good and it's really easy to use this phone thanks to its very explicit menu. The only thing I don't like very much about it is that the MP3 is not so loud, but that is not the end of the world, is it? Any way, CONGRATULATIONS Samsung for an almost perfect phone (that because perfection does not exist, does it?.

  • It's the best phone i have ever had,ihave it since it came in the market,i think about the new one,but i dont see any phone as good as it is.It has one disatvantage that mp3 is not very loud,but thats not very big problet.so go samsung!

  • i had the e720 for 2 months before it was stolen, and at first the switch from nokia to samsung cause me to be critical of the phone and its features, but eventually i got to love it, not long before it was stolen. the only downsides i could think of was that the phone didnt vibrate on incoming calls/messages unless it was on silent, the wallpaper only taking up a small area of the main screen, short battery life, small amount of room for mp3s, and the uselessness of the outside screen.it didnt display recived messages or missed calls, you had to open it every so often to check. im soon to be receiving a samsung e770 which seems to quite the same only with some nice improvements, such as a 1.3mp camera, memory card slot and wallpaper that covers the entire display.

  • It is the worst phone I have ever owned, it is slow, it doesn't have everything the manual says it should have, but worst of all is the mic, people cant hear me very well and I cant hear them at all most of the time, I have to keep ringing over and over before it decides it wants to work properly. VERY VERY DISAPPOINTED!!!!!!!!

  • I don't have the phone yet but im getting one, when my mates contract runs out and they upgrade they're giving me the old e720 ive used it a couple of times and it seems canny, i had a samsung e330 for a hile and the user interface is similar so im happy. it will be a big step from my nokia 3510(not the colour screen one) which i have been using. i think nokia dominated the market for mobile phones when they were simply mobile phones but now i feel Samsung have sped ahead and are winning the race, i remember when everyone was bragging about there new nokia 3310, which everyone had except me and my ericsson A1018's coca cola promotional phone with the coca cola ringtone and interchagable fascias.

  • i dont know why every1 hates ths phne! i think its gr8! the camera n the video recordin iz execelent although i can't seem 2 gt internet on mi phne.

  • Plz can sum1 help me!! last week this phone got very wet in my bag when a drink leaked and it worked for about 10 mins after then it stopped complety. Then for 1 day it did'nt turn on at all but eventually when all the water dried up the phone turned on but only displays insert sim card everytime. Everything else is there including the time, battery and reception level and it turns on and off fine and even vibrates but it won't do anything else. The sim works in a another orange phone fine so it not the sim so now i dnt no wat to do!!! plz do any1 have any suggestions i would b very grateful!! :) xxx

  • xRUBYx what happened?! i just know this from experience with SEricsson but when they replace your fone in warranty period its not with a new handset. You get a second-hand unit - CRAP!

  • When talking to people on the phone I will guarantee that during the call you will have to get the person to repeat themselves. The speaker in the ear piece is nothing more than shockingly bad, I thought it was me but you can't remove ear wax that isn't there. There are also small features about the phonebook which causes niggles butI know when I upgrade my phone they're going to turn into major headaches. The battery life is a pain in the rear end, if you like to chat never leave home without a charger. PLEASE DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE. I must admit that it has been a good phone despite it's niggles and lousy speaker, it is pretty durable and even now after 12 months it still looks good (I do drop it on a regular basis and abuse it).

  • I was thinking about buying this cell phone...but when i read the comments i thought it was better to buy the samsung sgh e530... which one is better??? the e530 or e720??? I noe tht e720 has more memory but is it that bad??? I mean bout the sound??? WHO NOES AN ANSWER SEND ME AN EMAIL PLEASE!!! THIS IS URGENT!!! HELPPPPP!!! Thanx...

  • this phones good its not very expensive 60 to a 100 pound.good camera a lot memory space its got everything u will ever neede in a phone

  • i like this phone a lot memory is really good, pretty easy to use, i like the design also. the ony things i dont like about it is the fact that the music doesnt sound that good, theres no speakerphone and also, correct me if im wrong(id love to sort it out) but you cant have a ringtone playing when its mp3 and have the phone vibrate at the same time. if only it did!!! great phone overall though

  • LoL sorry i didnt finish. i was gonna say that it wont let me play my music it just keeps turning itself on and off and the same goes for trying to take a picture or video, it makes a horrible noise aswell before it goes off like it has had waer damage (which i havnt done) :( i think im gonna go and take it back in like 30 mins and shall tell you the results :) xx

  • I feel quite dissapointed. i loved this phone, i made it unique and was happy with it. it has great memory space, takes goos pictures and videos, a really bright light and a few alright games, basically your getting my jist. i had this phone for a whole 10 months and it was stolen from me and i have payed �7.99 in insurance on the phone for the last 10 months and the company upset me when it took well over a month for a new one to come and then to find that it just keeps getting worse!

  • Hi, im trying to put some songs onto my phone. I've installed all the software but the file manager option is greyed out. Anyone have any ideas why???? Cheers

  • now I found the method, and could flash firmware. not difficult, if you know steps! it's amazing!

  • I'd like flash the firmware, but with USB cable I could't it. When the Optiflash program said "Phone on power" nothing happend, when I push on button. I read other forums, the problem is real. Can anyone help me?

  • have loaded all the software to my laptop, I am having problems getting the file manager to work via USB. Is there any known config. issues or some obvious thing, to get this function working. Anyone got the answer?????

  • hi my bes m8 haz this phone and no-body can deny its an amazing phone but i have recently bought a new phone and i bought the samsung z500 which is basically an upgrade of this phone.

  • If you are buying this phone for the Mp3 player then go for a sony ericson walkman phone as the mp3 player on the e 720 is a waste of money too quite on loud speaker and quality poor

  • very good phone but the voice recorder is very very very bad

  • Hey all, I've had this phone for ages now its a great phone... PROS:Really fast camera Good video quality Nice screen Good MP3 player Easy great keypad Alsom LED lights Very simple easy to use CONS:PC software is �h� �h� �h�(WORST SOFTWARE EVER) Cant customise TXT ringtones (only have 10 short tones to choose form) Have to convert music to MP3 or ACC Othwise GREAT phone......Buy it If u have any questions about the phone email me at [email protected]

  • great phone but again sound quality very poor and ring tone volume is poor missed loads of calls

  • this is a decent reasonable priced phone it is xactly like the d500 apart from the camera and shape is different. the resona i brought this phone was becos evry tom dik nd harry hav got the d500 therefore i went for the e720 the bad side is that the speaker is not that loud s a d500 apart from thats its a slik phone (can n e 1 tell me how to change my numbers to multi-colour when shown on screen)

  • i have this mobile phone 4 about two weeks and i think that every thing about it is great but i would rather prefer the D-500

  • it's the best mobile i ever hade!

  • This phone is so good. I had the phone for nearly a year now and had no problems with it. Eventhough I have an upgrade soon i'm deciding not to recieve it because this phone is really good.

  • please help i cannot download a song from media play to my phone have calbe connected to cmoputer but get message saying to set up active sync???????????????????????

  • Phone has great features and a good camera and memory except lacks the most important feature for a mobile phone..CALL QUALITY! There is no speakerphone, so the maximum volume is pathetic unless there is complete silence around you. I dont suppose anyone knows how to improve this? Thanks.

  • Ive had this fone since xmas n i do lyk it.Its a gd fone wit gd memory n gd features n lukes nice bt theres 2 things i dnt lyk bout it-wen u txt more than lyk 50 words it sends 2 different txts n it costs more muney which is rubbish n da oder 1 is da sound quality lyk evry1 says.its rubbish

  • Overall i think the E720 is a brilliant fone....tonnes of memory...brilliant sound quality and picture perfect everytime....this is not a bad phone and i would recommend one to anybody...to get the clock display on the front ...take a random pictur...set it as front wallpaper....and then delete the picture!!!...the only dislike about the fone is the navigation menu on the home screen...its is to wide..apart fromm that..exellent fone

  • hey every1~ this phone is great i used it for about 1 year the design is nice the pictures are good and the mp3 is working fantastically. some say that the sound quality is bad but for me everything was perfect. and i love the analogue watch in the front screen it's so cute... so any1 planning 2 buy this phone don't waste your time looking around 4 another phone just get this phone and u'll see that u have made the best choice..

  • Had this phone for about a year, upgrading to a nokia 6280 this week. I read all the reviews about the sound before i bought it and sorry to say that it is true, i don't really know how i've put up with it for a whole year! Some conversations are near impossible while others arent so bad. Nice phone to use however. Only other downside is that you can't have vibrate and audiable alert together for sms

  • yep it is true that the sound is kinda bad.. i have to say its even worse than the radio so dont bother using this as a mp3 player, if ur really using this phone as a mp3 player, u should go for walkman phone like w600 or w900. The other features for the phone is pretty well done especially the camera/video and the daym nice original design. The buttons are easy to press and there are a lot of features - sound, etc. The onli downside i have to say is the screen and the wallpaper ratio.., the screen/border basically takes up half of the screen so basically, ur wallpaper is small as hell and it is difficult to create you own one and transfer it to ur phone with usb as a wallpaper. feel free to ask me more questions for Samsung E720 or Sony Ericsson W600i - [email protected]

  • Had this phone on trial as Samsung is generally very good. The sound is unfortunately very poor most of the time. It makes no difference the provider of the reciptients phone and whether on pay as you go or contract. Very unfortunate :( The other downside is the (now thank you Samsung) the ability to add to the T9 dictionary. Sadly this is limited to about 20 only, so its a little pointless being asked to "Add" a new word when it wont store it. The clock also never remains on the front screen. Sorry Samsung but its off to try a different phone. If you don't talk much on your mobile, OR text different words, its a great phone. Pity its so unusable :(:(:(

  • i want to get this phone but just wondering..is the sound quality realli THAT bad? coz by reading some of the comments here, im a bit reluctant to buy this phone now =.=! can someone plz tell me if this phone is realli THAT bad. abt the txt msgin n reciving calls...is the volume realli that low dat u just cant hear it? o.O ...i realli like the design of this phone n realli wanted it but if the sound quality is that bad ..then might as well juz not buy it. waste of money.

  • My e720 gone mad every time i take a picture i realise the resolutions on 160x120 and every time i try to change it is says not allowed this also is stopping me using frames. anyone know whats wrong

  • it's a very good phone.at video is the best.i haven't seen a phone better than samsung e 720

  • So does anyone know (how to get) that code to wipe the recent recipients from the samsung SGH-E720??

  • Very nice design, but the quality of the sound (mic and speaker) is very poor.... My provider tried to repare my phone 4 times and changed it 2 times for another one... The sound stays very poor....

  • I have always used samsung phones for the past 4 years and this is one of the best phones I have ever used.It's definetly far better than motorazer.

  • It is a very good phone. Turn the quiet mode of by pressing # for a while.

  • recently i hated my samsung phone mainly because of the recent recipients, but i have work around that problem with a code to reset the phone, the only prob is it wipeseverythin, pics, vids, music. the memory on the phones isnt that good, u cant seem to hold much on the phone

  • Hey!! Got this fone about 2 months ago and i think its Fab! Overall i think that we shouldave had a data cable of some sort with it! Generally i think this fone is cool. Due to only using it for school.. I can connect with bluetooth relitavely easy. If your thinking about buyin this fone.. i would definatly recomend it!

  • Regarding getting no service. You must change the network to support the carrier you have. Example T mobile uses 1900. Once you find out which networ your phone uses and change it to that your phone will work. I know because I hade the same problem. Hope this helps.

  • I just purchased this phone. I think it is pretty cool. One question, how do you keep the clock face showing? Also does it have a speaker?

  • I wanna buy this phone but seeing some ppl complained bout the text....you cant delete them? or i'm misunderstnding them. I like to delete my text so it wont over rite the ones i save and can u display picture on the external lcd? pls reply ty ^^

  • please help me, i cannot hear all the calls anf texts received! my phone is always on quiet mode. how will i change it into idle mode? thanks!

  • The Samsung E720 is very very nice and it is a good phone for any kind of use genral, buisness

  • I have had this phone nearly a year and the experience has been poor. The speaker is poor, sound quality on calls poor, and it does not work overseas depsite being a tri band phone.

  • hi i got my samsung yeterday and i had it on charge all night but today the battery ran out with i 5 hours is this the same with all the others or is it just mine thank you

  • Hi I just got this phone.Replaced the Motorola V300 with this one. The problem is that the E720 keeps telling me that I have no service, where as my old phone has no problem. Is there something wrong with the 720. Any help? Thanks.

  • I'm thinking of buying this phone, it looks very nice and stylish :) But after reading some reviews I'm a bit hesitant, is it as bad as some people say it is?

  • this phone is o.k.

  • can someone pls tell me how big is the screen of the e720?-or at least is it bigger than that of e700? 10x

  • A question. got this phone got software got a bluetooth :) need to get my contacts in to the pc. i connect the bluetooth get phone it finds it but the program easystudio II dosnt find it :x it says no phone found.. i try differnet phones but nothing happens. can anybody help???

  • Does anyone know how to get an apostrophe for texting on this phone please?

  • It's a great phone. I simply luv it. I've had it since september 2005 and I haven't had a problem with it. It has a great design and the camera is also great!

  • i have a kuestion, is 2 fone hard 2 open? i mean can u open it with one hand or do u need both? pliss need an answer!

  • Samsung E 720 is a great phone, excellent sound, very good camera filming and the design is a special one. I have bought it 6 months before,i used to have Samsung E 800 with a slide system, which was nice despite all the commentaries, but it didn't have an MP3.i recommend it.

  • hey i have this phone and if anyone was to buy this phone i would re-think it because i have only had this phone for about 10 months and its already going funny in the way that the screen crashes and it is very slow. it doesn't hold much music although on the good siode the mp3 is very easy to get to, although you should conside locking the mp3 as it can easy come on and waste battery if you dont hear it thank you x

  • I think you can get rid of the recent reicipent's by deleting their number and name. Then putting it back in. Let me know if it works...

  • In answer to maz,no ive never been able to find a way to delete recent recipients of messages.So if ya trying to hide something ya gotta text a new 30 people before ya can get rid.

  • Ive had this phone a yr now and though its a great phone,on the down side volume is low for ring tones and music even when on loudest setting.Also camera and video are not good in the dark,not much good if ya use them on a night out!And ya cant have a message tone other than prefixed ones. Other than this excellent phone.

  • the phones fine (e 720). the mp 3 memorys rubbish, dont hold thats much music. also wots with the textin keepin all the people u've sent messages to in the recent reicipent part. anyone know how to delete them. email me [email protected]. its doin my head in

  • Which Phone should I buy the Z500 or the E720, which is the best one to have for music, and also messaging and email? Thanks D

  • the samsung e720 is a good phone the only problem it has is with the messaging. when u wanna send a message it has a recent recipient part. u cant seem to delete the entries which. i think u should. is there anyway of deleting them at all

  • HELP Front play/forward button still not working can anyone still help???

  • Thats wrong, video IS recorded with sound.

  • is it true that you can only record video without sound?

  • I recently broke my Sony Ericsson K700i and I got the Samsung E720 as replacement. So far I'm quite pleased with it. It doesn't have as many features as my old phone but it sure has a lot of them packed into a smaller and more user friendly design. The camera works nicely and the buttons on the front to play music are a real plus. It's a nice phone; I recommend it.

  • Hiya! if any has any problems with this fone dont hesitate 2 contact me on [email protected]. im a phone boff and i also own this handset and know most there is to know about it :)

  • if u go into ur music file and add sond to playlist u can then play ur songs using the front buttons. each song has to be added to playlist to do this. hope this helps xxx

  • hi Im having trouble with the front play and forward button they will not respond!!!! Can anyone help asap its urgent

  • The analog clock on the outside screen does disappear it is how the software on the handset has been set, You can change the analog clock to an image of your choice from your album. I have me and my fiance on mine and it does disappear after a few seconds as it is supposed to. Nothing can be done to change this as it is the software installed to the handset.

  • Word of advice. NEVER buy handsets from ebay because if they turn out to be faulty you cannot get a refund for it... You can never be too careful. I work with mobiles and have had many people who call me with faults on handsets which they have purchased on ebay and theres nothing that can be done apart from trying to resolve the faults via resets etc. I brought the e720 nearly a year ago and it has to be the best handset so far, I have had many handset but theres soooo much on the e720 and it is sooo easy to function. Give it a chance people trust me I get calls on handset faults every day and never have I received a call on the e720. If your experiancing problems with making and receiving calls or text then test your sim in another handset as it could always be a sim issue, Or simply try resetting your handset to see if this will prevent the faults.

  • Received this phone as an insurance claim. Experienced what seems to be a fairly common fault, with the handset not switching cell towers whilt i was travelling, forcing me to power the phone off and on to get reception. A simple software upgrade has taken care of the problem, and my handset is now issue free. That said, it was an aggravating problem to put up with until I got myself back to the dealer I purchased it from. Speaking as someone who sells mobile phones for a living, I can recommend this phone. It is easy to use, has decent battery life and reasonable functionality. Users wanting high end performance should look elsewhere, but if you are looking for a reliable, inexpensive handset, this may be a solid choice for you.

  • This is my current phone, its coming up a year old and its impossible to break, ive done everything from throw it in water to run it over and its still scratch free. I love it it has great camera and video quality. Infact i cant think of any faults with it.

  • If you use predictive text, DO NOT purchase this phone, its t9 dictionary has a limit that you cant knowingly extend (and before you ask, no it dosnt say anything in the manual about t9 dictionary having a limit) it learns i guess 40 entries or so, then stops learning... nice one samsung(!)

  • I just bought the E-720 and was wondering how I connect it to my pc so I can transfer my music to the mps player... sorry if this is a silly Q but I'm no good at technical stuff lol

  • i have just got one of these phones an it is the best i have had so far

  • If the sound was faulty it would not even be able to go on sale. The sound is fine... its not the clearest, but its a mobile phone, would never be as clear as landline phones anyway.

  • umm.. is it true that the sound on the phone is faulty??

  • i want to by e720 but i am not shore is that a good choice.is there any perfect phone for me...pleas help.pictures and other informations you can send on [email protected]

  • Yeah, the camera is awesome...The best imaging-phone i have ever had...better than nokia 6680

  • I know this might sound silly.. bt is the camera on this phone better than on a Nokia 3220?? i think it is bt just want to get a definite answer...

  • Its a good buy, people are just nit-picking. There are people who nit-pick every phone. You can't go wrong with this phone. The only thing that may concern you, is that the camera is 1 megapixel, although thats not bad (ive taken some good pictures) there are lots of phones with better quality cameras. But saying that, the rest of the phone is top notch, and competes with the best of the best.

  • i am really confused :S is this phone a good buy or a bad buy..... as i am looking to buy it but am not sure if i want to anymore as of the faults that have been found! please help

  • i really think this is a really cool looking phone, i wish i can have this phone but knowing when this might come out.

  • WASTE OF TIME - DON'T BUY AN E720. I recently bought the E720 on an insurance claim. After I bought it I read all these negative comments but thought I might be lucky. I'm sorry to say, but it is the crapest phone I have ever had. I could not receive messages or make any phones calls. I had to repeatably turn the phone off and on to make it work. I checked with my service provider and they said it was a faulty phone. Took it back after 2 days, and Samsung have provided me with the upgraded version E770, which so far seems to be working without a hitch.

  • i just brought a e720. now after reading all your comments im a bit worried. i havnt paid for it yet cause its off ebay...

  • Does anyone know how to keep the analoque clock displayed on the external screen coz it dissapears after a few seconds :-/ Email with details cheers :)

  • this phone is lush and much better thn marks s500i, his phone sucks!

  • A well nice phone looks fab and easy to use! Highly recomended.

  • Has any1 had problems with this phone resetting itself? its as if the phone has been switched off and on again i've had it about 6 months but don't wanna get it replaced as i've got loads of info on the memory - any help would b gr8

  • to E720 user can i just ask... is this phone can record video files or can it playback in .3gp format?

  • The samsung e720 is a phenomenal phone. It offers everything a phone can and has great video resolution. The mp3s play perfectly and the bluetooth works like lightning i had a few problems installing its software on my pc but that had nothing to do with the phone, this phone deserves a 10/10

  • I like my e720, the only problems are that you cant set your message tone to sound and vibrate like my old e700, you have to either set a tone OR vibrate. Also my reception drops all the time, although the bar is full, not allowing me to make/recieve calls or messages. To fix this problem the phone needs to be turned off then back on again so the phone can get the strongest signal from the towers, again a problem my e700 didnt have. Samsung have made a good phone, but by focusing on new features they have left out some essentials. if anyone knows how to fix the signal problem, as IT IS NOT MY NETWORK CARRIER, please email me at [email protected]

  • hi i have had no problems with this phone i use all my mp3 i have downloaded as ring tones sometimes the cable connection does not get connect says offline easy sorted check which comport u are using to connect check in device manager blue tooth dongles are better for connections so easy to upload and download everything

  • Barry, just download a software package such as Kazaa or Ares (www.Officialares.com) with the latter being better and quicker. You can download songs, which are in MP3 format. Then use an existing programme, one that you got with the data-cable to send them via the cable to your phone. Hope this helps!

  • I have this phone and it is amazing,the battery once lasted 3 weeks and my friend has a d600 that broke after 1 charge. The best samsung out. Only 1 problem.Does anyone know a website to get mp3s from.

  • "U cannot use downloaded files as ringtones or message tones" ???? How can you say that??? I�m using my mp3 files from computer..downloaded!!!!

  • I had a samsung e720 for about a month. It had certain problems. It used to heat up unusually during calls and the sound quality is not clear at sometimes. But overall its a good phone for basic use.....i changed to a v3

  • If anyone has any problems or queries with or about the Samsung E720 contact me by email [email protected] I will be glad to help. I am an owner of a Samsung E720, I got it on contract from O2 about 4 1/2 months ago. All I can say about this phone is AMAZING, SUPER, definatly worth the �120 odd on pay as you go.

  • PLEASE HELP ME DEAREST FRENS... i use diz phone for more then 6 months already, all this while my contacts is in the phone not in sim card. How do i copy contacts frm phone to sim card? Can anybody help me in this. Thanx Pliz email me at [email protected]

  • U cannot use downloaded files as ringtones or message tones because they have a copy right protection on them which means the files downloaded can only be used for listening to via the mp3. Only ones that get bluetoothed from other handsets can be used as ringtones but there are specified tones for messages. Thats the way the handset software has been set up.

  • Hey For all the people that have this phone and can't make or recieve calls.. try checking the bands its on if you are in the US. then it should be on 1900 otherwise the bands selection should be on 900/1800 I had the same problem. and that did the trick. hope it works for everyone else

  • i cant setup a mp3 file for incoming calls , its sez "not allowed"... it`s not possibble 2 do that ? please someone help me

  • why is it that this phone doesnt have speaker phone.. and u cant upload songs and put them as ur text msgs or voicemail sounds?????

  • Overall it is a good mobile phone.The menu is easy to use,furthermore it is stable.The phone didn't freez even once (I use it for one month).The quality of calls is not as high,as I expected.Sometimes I cannot understand what my caller says!The antena could be more sensitive.You are not able to magnify recieved photos,even if they are in 1Mpix resolution.And the biggest disapointment!PC link software is the worst I have used in my life!!!I use bluetooth to connect phone with the computer.It takes aproximetely 1 minute to transfer 200kb of data!!!The bluetooth connection is not stable,the phone disconnects all the time.I used Nokia 6230i and I also used to connect Nokia with the computer through bluetooth.The established connection was stable,furthermore the speed of data transmision is aproximetely 60 times faster than in samsung e-720.The Samsung is elegant mobile.The number of functions is rich-only on the paper,but real functionality of this mobile is not as high as it should be for today mobile phone (eg.the lack of profiles).I don't reccomend this mobile to You.Nokia-old ,good manufacterer. The phones by Nokia are easy to connect with PC every posibble way and they are as easy to use as Samsung.My recomendation is NOKIA

  • Hi If you cant make or receive calls the first port of call is your Service Provider not the manufacturer of the handset. Have you done this?

  • I am trying to load songs onto my new phone and followed the instructions above, but when i open the File Manager i cant select music in the top left hand corner. When i open the PC Studio PIM & File Manager i get an error message which says "Cannot open the port and this program is switched in offline mode. After, try to switch in online". Does anyone know what this means?

  • I hate Samsung! I have had the E720 for two months. I cannot make or receive calls!! I have sent it away for repair twice and it is still faulty. I am now dealing with Samsung. They are rude, unfriendly and unhelpful. I have called the service centre 5 times and have been left on hold for 15-20 mins each time. They will not replace the phone and I am about to send it away again for the 3rd time! Don not purchase a Samsung!

  • hi, i hav a samsung E720 and hav never had a problem. from last week i have not been able to make or recieve calls. has anyone had this problem or does anybody know how to fix the problem. plaease email me @ [email protected] thanx

  • it`s very good mobilephone, a lot of memory,good camera and so on.

  • plz can any one tell me what is in the sales package of e 720 ? does it have a usb cable? plz it urgent

  • with phones that dont have AIM, can you just d/l it on phones? so i was wondering if you can do it with this one..

  • Hi me again, I forgot to ask when viewing your contacts can you choose how you want to view them ie. view sim card or view phone or view both and does it tell how much memory left in them? Also are you able to copy from one to the other? Does the phone have some normal ring tones as I prefer just the standard rings than all the fancy ones that usually are on the newer phones (ie songs). Many thanks for your thoughts.

  • Hi everyone, I am thinking of buying this mobile in Auss (being discontinued now) and just want to know for sure if it has good ring tones and incoming text alert sounds which are nice and loud so you can hear when in your handbag, in shops or on noisy street etc? Also need to know if the it has good reception and people can hear you and visa versa. Also does this phone have a radio and loud speaker. Many thanks for your honest response(s) :-))

  • I put a movie on this my phone yesterday(SMG E720)....It was so freakin hard i had to have like 6 programs running to do it + i needed to download a 3GP converter from download.com just to get it the right format....It was worth it thow....

  • haha...good call jason. The first time i got it repaired it said that there was noisy RX/FX constantly what ever that means

  • AMIU have you ever had your hearing checked, well don't blame the phone, get your hearing checked, its getting worse! :D

  • has the voice quality of the receiving and sending end of the calls improved? I know there was an issue before, has it been fixed?

  • Jason your a fuking tool. I own a e720 and the sound quality is absalute crap! Ive had it repaired twice and its getting worse

  • I think this phone is great and fantastic looking however I am extremely careful with mine and it still messed up. Swithces off all the time and doesnt switch on in the morning sometimes even though the battery has some juice left. Bringing it into o2 to see what they can do about it. Otherwise a great looking and well featured phone.

  • I'd rather have this phone than a Samsung D500/D600, because the screen is protected in a clam-shell, whereas the D500/D600, the screens are massive and they are very fragile phones. Yeah they might look swish with its sliding thing and might have little more features than the E720 but for the price, its a risk if they should they break. Ive had my E720 for a while now, its never let me down, ive dropped it a few times, put it in and out of my pocket umpteenth times and yet, not scratches on either the external and internal screens! The sound quality is not at all bad! Don't listen to some other people, ive read lots of reviews saying that its not up to standard, that is total tosh. Those people saying that are obviously jealous of someone who had a E720 and are trying to get people to avoid it like the plague. Sound is not a problem, yeah its not the clearest, but its a mobile phone... so expecting the crispest sound should not be a factor. I can hear people fine and ive even asked the people on the other end if they hear me and if i sould muffled. They said i sounded fine. To me this is the best looking and easily acessible phone on the market. The buttons are perfect for texting, games, camera etc. The camera is even good and the video is the best you can get on a phone. In fact this and the D600 both have the same video quality. The Mp3s can be played aloud and the is sound a little tinny, but thats what is expected. Phones are not able to deliver alot of base as you would expect from a stereo. But it doesn't mean the sound isnt clear, infact using the ear-phones (that come with the phone) you are able to hear the current song in all its glory and the base is fine! Take it from me, im honest with reviews... take it into account that i prefer clam-shells. But you can't go wrong if you buy this phone. The cheapest i found it on pay as you go was at �125 from the Orange shop online. That is worth every penny and they were great service, got it within 4-5 days.

  • Hi.. ive had this phone couple days and its wicked the only problem im having is i dont have a clue how to put mp3's on here via bluetooth.. ive read the manual but it just doesnt seem to be doing what its meant to.. can anyone help?

  • I've had this phone for about seven months. Personally, I think the features of this phone are fantastic. I haven't had a problem with the sound quality on my end, but there is a problem with how -I- sound to other people. In a nutshell they say I sound like I have my hand over the mic (which I don't...) Extremely muffled. I don't know if this is just a fluke or if other people are experiencing this as well. I was highly disappointed because I love the phone but I paid a lot for it and it makes me sound horrible. After all, isn't talking the main purpose of a mobile in the first place?

  • This phone is pretty boring. the sound quality is poor and the phone is crap. my mate thinks hes ace with it but he isnt.

  • I have this phone for a while now. Everything's nice but... no handsfree feature, no SD Flash memory slot, no FM radio. It's not that loud.

  • How does the Media player works? I can't help it.

  • Hey there. i recently posted a comment on how dodgy the sound quality was on the e720. I took it to altech industries (perth, aus) and they repaired it! something about a loud rx/tx...? but now it is as good as my old nokia!! best it has ever been

  • i had samsung e720 of orange brand .i had problem when i set any pic as wallpaper its not cover the whole screen pls tell me how can i set my pic on hole screen pls reply soon.

  • I bought the E720 in September and have been using it since. I was expecting it to fall to pieces after the first month or so, seeing as it seems to be more a toy than a serious phone, but after almost three months of heavy-duty usage there's not even a scratch on it. Now, concerning some common complaints about this handset: - Personally I find that the biggest drawbacks are: only a couple of preset melodies ring and vibrate simultaneously, you can't do the same for most presets nor for custom-set tones, AND you can't customize text tones. Why? Nobody knows. - I was a bit dissapointed with the battery at first, because it died quite fast for the first week or so - but I continued to stretch the battery for another week and now it lasts up to four days. You need to format the battery first, and avoid rapid charging at all costs! This applies to all mobiles, by the way. - The sound quality could be better, true, but it's not terrible, as some people tend to claim. I find that adjusting the volume level helps with this issue (despite what most people think, louder IS NOT better!) - Great video and photo quality for a mobile, plus lots of nifty features in the camera (frames, effects and the flash kicks serious butt). - The screen is clear and crisp, one thing that bothers me is the fact that I can't download skins. The four that are included are a tad corny... - The mp3 player is neat, with a few sound options (jazz, rock, classical, 3D), skins, playing modes (shuffle, repeat one, repeat all). Too bad you can't text and listen at the same time... - Bluetooth is fast and easy to use. Overall I think it was worth the money. There's no such thing as a perfect phone, all have their drawbacks, and you can remedy most problems if you read the manual (which most people forget about).

  • Got the phone in July 2005. Happy with camera/video function. Only now after 5 months of storing pixs/vid am I getting near the ample memory limit. Easy to use and though not the lightest phone it is comfortbale to carry. Good feature is ring and vibrate. Plenty of battery life even with multi function use. The sound. It is disappointing. My partner has a D500 and it is in a different league. Playback quailty of MP3s and calls are noticeably better on the D500. However, aside from this I love the functions, ease of use and reliabilty.

  • As a phone the quality of sound thru the earpiece is the worst we have ever heard, it sounds like someone has a sock over the phone. My last unit was a 700 and the sound quality was 100 times better. Very dissapointed, am considering sending it back it sounds so bad.

  • Doesn't it have loudspeaker during calls??????????????

  • good phone, looks gr8 has high memory but doesnt have memory card slots 2 upgrade it. doesnt vibrate and ring at the same time, doesnt have loadspeaker during calls which i think is lil stupid while it has a loudspeaker 4 the music. the battery lasts a long time and it looks gr8. itsa good fone but could b improved on with simple features.i recomend this fone and it stands out from the others but i prefare the features that nokia have. the fone wolud b perfect if it had a memory card in it, loud speaker 4 calls and vibrating and ringing at the same time (like nokia)

  • gd fone gd fone

  • About BlueTooth: there's no limit. I have successfully managed to send a video of a size about 22 megs to a Nokia, with no problems (except it is slooooowwwwww :)) There's no fullscreen mode for videos

  • is there anyway i can view film clips in full screen on my samsung e720

  • this phone is amaising 2 colour screens both with amaising graphics, the camera and video is excellent!! it it sooooooooooo much betta than the crappy old e700!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i would reccomend this phone to anyone !

  • Can I you guys ask something before I go and buy the phone? Firstly does the bluetooth allows you to send everything and with no limit of size? Because fir example Sharp does not allow files greater than 100kb to be transferred to another phone or to be received. Secondly, is the memory of the phone shared? I mean all sony-ericsson phones store only 200 messages but nokia phones as many as you want! Thirdly can it be connected with the pc and having all the operations I want? Send/receive mp3, photos, videos, backup etc? What about java applications? Thank you and sorry for the "questioner" I wrote!!!!

  • I have a E720 but i don't know how to put new games in it. Who can help me? Please email me at [email protected]

  • hi, how is the mp3 quality when you just listen to it out loud. is the SE k700i mp3 quality better?

  • Has no1 else found that the audio quality when talking to ppl on this phone is POOR!! its liek someone has a sock over it. i sent it back the first time thinking it was broken but the new one they sent was still bad. Took it to the shop adn he said that was the soudn "as good as a samsung" gets...i just had a ericcson k700i, which apparantly "have better quality speakers" which was leagues above. how ppl could pay so much, in this day and age, for audio quality so poor i dont know!

  • I bought a USB cable for my E720 from DataKits.co.uk It was only �10 including p&p and it arrived in 3 days. There is software included which allows me to download/upload stuff to and from my computer. I recommend buying one.

  • Ive had this phone for a month. Youve probobly heard all the hype about poor speaker quality during a call. DONT BUY THIS PHONE if you like to hear people. I have to use my hands free kit everycall! Its alright if your in a quite room, but if your in the shops you must use the handsfree kit...otherwise all you hear is dropping out noises

  • Hey guys! Had fone for about 1 week, i think its great! good camera and video, mp3 player looks good but i have no idea how to put music onto it! ive tried a bluetooth dongle conected to my fone but it stores the music files in 'other files' under file manager, then u cnt play the music or move them 2 the mp3 player!! if ne1 has ne idea plz plz plz help me!!! i really want my music on my fone from my comp! either email me or write bk on here, ta x x

  • This is a great phone indeed. Its only flaw is the lack of a memory card, 90 Mb is not even close to enough for a mobile phone that has all those mp3 player functions. I miss my old Nokia 6230i with a 512 Mb MMC.

  • Hello. I have a E720 but i don't know how to put new games in it. Who can help me? Please email me at [email protected]

  • no loud speaker on the e720!

  • Jamie. You should be able to play the MP4 files on your PC with 'Quick Time Player'. You can download it from the net free. I am assuming you are using windows XP. if so, go to, If you are using an older version of Windows, you can still find it without too much trouble.

  • Hi just want to ask if the E720 has loud speaker for phone conversations?. If anyone knows please email me or post on forum. Than-you Nick

  • what is better e720 or the e730 opinions?

  • im getin diz phone 4 exmas n im buyin it at the weekend n i cnt wait. most the comments are gud but sum r bad. this fne betta b gud cuz i cnt find any ova fnes i like!!!!

  • With all the elegance of E 700 and the utilities that i needed in one piece! cant get better than that in any other mobile just the sound quality needs some improvment.

  • ok this phone is so cool i cant wait to get it im just searchin around for the shop that sells it at the cheapest price the only shop i have found is carphone warehouse @ 179.99 can anyone tell me if they can get it cheaper before i buy it cheers

  • I give this phone a 9.5/10. The only word to sum this phone up in one is... Fantastic. I bought this model yesterday and upon first glace of opening the box, I was instantly amazed. This is one of the nicest looking phones around. It's nice clamshell design make it look not only modern but quite smart too. Its sleek design and external display and buttons make it a great phone to look at. Once charged up this phone pleased me very much. What with the MP3, Video, Flash/Zoom Camera, Bluetooth and cutting edge technology, The screen and performance of this phone is completely up to scratch. Everything about this phone is amazing and I highly recomend it to anyone interested. The only down point I can think of is that if you are a new Samsung user, this is not the best model to get you used to the controls as it is quite hard to navigate. Well Done Samsung!!!

  • ok you can just put it into a usb port with a cable and then if you have windows xp al you have to do is put the cabele in fom your phone to your computer click the song and it downloads it yea so its realy cool and if you play runescape email me at [email protected] thanks so we can chat

  • hi im getting this phone for christmas and i was wondering on were can i buy this usb cable so i can transfer my songs from my laptop to my phone. thnx xoxo

  • hi yea im gettin this phone for christmas and i carn,t wait i like the carma the werid things on it i love it man the best phone ive ever had like total

  • VJ you are the MAN!!! After reading your step by step advice,it finally works. Thanx,alot

  • Yeah, top notch phone but don't get impressed with the MP3 function as it's more trouble than it's worth. Apparantly you need to purchase a seperate cable to download music onto it from your PC and where do I find EasyStudio??? Certainly nowhere to be found on the Samsung website. Just ask Santa for a real MP3 player and use the phone for what its designed for, phoning.

  • can sum1 plz tell me how long does the video record for??? cos i'm going to buy this fone tommorow Cheers xxx

  • you can not recond your voice and set it as a ring tone. in video recording the video is great but the sound not that good. battery life is pretty decent. i charge my phone every other day. the flash is decent but works well upclose only. makes a very good torch. to save your voice as a ringtone: use a mic to recond whatever voice to your computer. convert this to mp3 and transfer it to your phone.

  • stuff you need: -usb driver software -pims file manager software -usb cable if you didnt get this software with your phone in a cd, you can just download it from the samsung website for free. step by step process: -do not connect your phone to the pc -install the usb driver -install the pims file manager -restart the computer -do not open the software. -turn your phone on and connect it to the pc with the usb cable -your computer should install it automatically -now open the pims software and it should pick up your phone. inside the software: -click on the button at the top (one arrow pointing up another pointing down) -use the dialogue box, that opens, to move stuff between your computer and phone. -you can move mp3's only to the music folder of the phone. -you can move pictures only to the downloaded photos folder. -move mp4's to the downloaded video's folder of the phone. email me if you still have problems. >>freewonderingsoul at yahoo dot com

  • Can you record your voice as a ring tone? Hey ppl i just got a few questions..is the battery life good??..and does the lights on the side of the camera help in the night??....also how is the video quality?

  • Can you record your voice as a ring tone? Hey ppl i just got a few questions..is the battery life good??..and does the lights on the side of the camera help in the night??....also how is the video quality?

  • can you put your voice as a ring tone??

  • i have this phone for a few months now and have no complaints..love it! battery life is good-3-4 days and sound quality is fine. I bought a usb cable and cd for about a fiver on ebay and have transferred loads of ringtones and wallpapers ( the selection of default ringtones are pretty weird) the colour screen is quality, games are great as are the graphics. The video is top too. The cable is straight forward. USB connection and make sure you have bluetooth activated. Once it is you can backup ur phone bk, transfer photos, edit photos, upload new ringtones, pics etc ..compose ringtones (which is easy i too) Anyway its a great phone for all those ppl who are unsure bout getting it!

  • is this worthe gettin as a first phone?

  • can yo urecord your voice as a rign tone?

  • GREAT PHONE!! i just got it like a week ago and i treat it like my baby its THAT SPECIAL! great color screen in AND out and awesome video recording quality and awesome design. great battery life. one bad thing is that it doesnt vibrate and ring at the same time you have to wait for 3 vibrations and then the melody comes out. samsung should change that.

  • read comments that its hard to make ur own ringtones.Just download free software like wavepad which is what i used then u can edit your fav tunes into tones and transfer then bluetooth or cable (i find cable easier and quicker) hope that helps

  • Can you record your voice as a ring tone? Hey ppl i just got a few questions..is the battery life good??..and does the lights on the side of the camera help in the night??....also how is the video quality?

  • The USB program works, all you have to do is go into EasyStudio and in Setup, select COM5 (it may vary between computers, I use a Dell Inspiron 600m)... In whatever case, just select each of them and click reload and use whichever one works.

  • Can you record your voice as a ring tone?

  • Hey ppl i just got a few questions..is the battery life good??..and does the lights on the side of the camera help in the night??....also how is the video quality?

  • I've had this phone for over a month now and I am very satisfied with it. No complaints about the sound quality whatsoever. The only this is the available ringtones, not a single normal tone there! Another, related, issue is the fact that mp3 sounds cannot be used in the alarm clock function. Only horrible sounds to wake up with!

  • samsung e720, dads buying it 4 me now!!!!!!1 please tell me its good

  • I am impressed with my E720, but one of the requests I made before I bought it was that I could completely lock my phone (my original Panasonic did this) There are apparently different locks on the E720, Phone lock, Privacy, these two work fine, but I want to prevent calls being made, hence, Call Barring. Does anyone know who to activate this, as Samsung keep providing incorrect information as to the codes.

  • I love the phone its great but im having problems with the USB and easystudio.

  • The mic next to the ear piece is for the video sound and should have no affect during calls. The mic you use during calls is at the other end of the phone, well away from the ear piece. But you are spot on with your description of the poor sound Jacob. I am on my fourth handset now, and they have all been the same, RUBBISH! Welcome to the muffled world of the E720. Yes, I know there are people out there who have 'good' ones and are happy, but there are a huge number of people who are having problems. Samsung should do the decent thing and sort it out. One thing is for sure, I will never buy another Samsung.

  • This phone has such bad reception its dreadful. It shouldn't be allowed on the market to be sold, i reckon because the mic is placed close to the earpeice there is distortion. It sounds like people are talking through a sock when i'm in a call. Lucky i'm not expecting or going to be making calls this year!

  • where is the usb port

  • i've hard time to active the bluetooth on this phone (each time i pick activate bluetooth, the phone is RESET automatedly) -- please help!!!

  • this phone is good but for any1 luking for a loud phone then dont get this!

  • to get pic messages with o2 you should ring them up directly, give them phone make and model and they will give u step by step instructions on what to di. they will even ring u back to save your phone bill and do it with u, alternatively u can request via phoning them to send it by email which is just as easy. hope that helps

  • No, there aren't any ways to change the message tones, you have to pick one of the ones that comes standard. The phone has about 82 MBs, which, if you're using standard Mp3 format, probably holds about 20 full length songs assuming you don't reserve a lot of memory for pictures and videos. You can set Mp3's in lower quality format however without being able to notice much.

  • hey everyone... quick question, does anybody know if there's anyway to change the text message ringtone other than the ones that are already in there? if anybody know, i would really appreciate ur help.. thanks neybi

  • hey guys i was wondering just how many songs this phone can hold???? THANKS

  • i had trouble with the pc transfer stuff too. but finally got it working, heres how: first install the software given on the disk. then restart your computer. now you have two usb ports in the computer. plug the cable into com3 and the other end into the phone (make sure your phine is on). now open the phone connecting software (set it to detect com3 by default).your phone will not show yet. now set the software to com4 but keep the usb in com3 and connected to your mobile. press the refresh button. disconect the phone from the cable for 1 second then reconnect it. now set your thing to detect com3 again and cick the refresh button. it will now detect your phone. every time you restart your computer you will have to do the set to com4,refresh then set back to com3 again. it really is a lot simpler than it sounds and not difficult at all. for any problems you can email me through "freewonderingsoul at yahoo dot com"

  • Lets say something that it's obvious.. You people like E720 more then the "upgrade" (E730)!An upgrade has more features-ok- BUt keeps the other ones from the less upgrade phone INTACT!I'll say what i had in mind: 1.The video is 176 with 144(E730) and 352 with 288 pixels(E720)! 2.The diodes --I think you know what i mean E720 is beater. 3.The external screen 96 with 96(E720)and 80 with 65(E730). Well as i already said and you can see if i am saying the truth E720 should be the upgrade! If you have E730 (sorry but you made a great mistake: 1.Tha radio is very cheap and it sounds like crap.(you who has it should know this). 2.The speaker?I had Nokia 6230 andit's not a great feature(someone can steel your precious phone while you are speaking)! 3.The memory? E720 has 94 and E730 has 96(BIg deal WOOOOOOOW)! And you can trust me when i say E720 is more AMAZING (I have Nokia N90,n91,6230--SE W800i,K700i and Samsung E720 and E730!)(I AM A LIKE PERSON!!! and i think my opinion is trustfull!Adios..

I got this one, if you want a look, go to You can upload/download music, video, photos, just about anything the phone can handle. It's easy! Don't forget, the dongle can be used with all sorts of Bluetooth equipment, so when you change phone in the future you don't have to buy another. Hope this helps.

  • Wow....i love this fone it's great. i would prefer for it to vibrate at the same time as ringing bcoz it not that loud, but the only major difficulty i've had is that i haven't been able to download the music onto my fone from my comp, as many others i noticed cant either. can sum one PLEASE send me instructions on how to get it working. Cheers xx

  • please help me. got data cable, installed easy gprs, usb drivers, file manger & pims but still get msg modem not responding. i desperately want my music on my phone. please email step by step instructions to [email protected]. THANKYOU XXXXXXXX

  • I am getting the E720 in a few days!!!!hav been waiting ages!!!! Just wonderin does the e720 require special earbuds (with special jack)??? Or does it use a universal jack???? Thnx

  • 80-90mb is definitely not enough to store mp3 but it can definitely store lots and lots of midi files and since it is 64 polyphonic i guess most midi files can be played on the phone!

  • Hello everyone. Im really hoping someone will respond to this! Can anyone explain to me a step by step way of transfering my mp3s from my computer onto my phone? I really dont have any clue of how to do it! I have got a usb datacable and have plugged it in, but it said it couldnt install and now nothing comes up on the computer when I do plug it in again. This is really really bugging me,as I bought it mainly to listen to music,but now I cant! Anyone out there wanna help? My email is [email protected] Any help much appreciated!

  • I have had the E720 for a few months now, and I have had a new phone every 6 months, and the comments I have heard about this phone being of bad sound is false. The only bad points I can say about this phone is there is no infrared and little memory bank. Above all else I would say 9/10 for effort from samsung. The bluetooth is great for downloading music and photos.

  • Just got my data cable for my fone, but i dont no how to install the drivers for it. Someone send me instructions on how to do this please. [email protected]

  • I have just discovered the E720 today and I have to save up to buy it (prob gonna be 4 or 5 weeks till i get it), man im going crazy trying to think of how I can get it sooner. Arrggghhh I CANT WAIT!!!

  • Brilliant phone. NO problems with sound quality. Took me a few try's to get the down/uploads going but after that I found it ezy...If your computer can recognize your phone and you have installed the PIMS disk then click on FILE MANAGER and go from there....

  • i want this phone for christmas but i have been hearing that it has shocking sound quality whe you make calls. if this s true can u please right back on this website. and if it is true i wll go for the moto V3. thanks alot.

  • hey guys, i've had a samsung e720 for almost 3 months now, for as long as I can remember everytime i get a call or make a call the other person hears strong static in the background. But i can't hear it. only the other person hears it. and the static goes in and out and sometimes really loud that they can't hear me. Once i called from my house line to my cell phone to check if its true. and yeh i can hear the static clearely on my house line but not on my cell phone. does anyone know how to fix this problem? anyone else have the same problem? I would greatly aprecate it if someone can help me out. Email me at [email protected] thanks alot

  • Had my E270 a week now and this is a great little phone.The mp3 player is so easy to load and use(i used a bluetooth attachment to my pc)i read about probs with speech but so far i have no complaints at all

  • its pretty easy to transfer files from pc to phone and viceversa,first of all u must install drivers and then plug the the phone to the pc via usb, the easy studio app is quite simple to understand. and yeah, i recharged my phone for 4-5 hours and battery last around 4-5 days in a stand-by mode.. this is great. this phone is great, just a little bit problems with displays exposed to daylight, but n fact, as i already said, this is an awesome phone

  • FOR MARK Firefly18 Call records, then received calls, then go to the call u want deleted click options then delete :-)

  • Got a new E720 today. I've tried to transfer MP3's from my computer to my phone, but it has seriously stumped me, i can't figure out wat to do. Does anyone else have this problem (it's prob just me), or can someone give me some advice

  • hey how do i change a song file WMA to a Mp3 so i can put it on my fone.. coz i cant put it on because its a WMA file please help thx...

  • lol Dawn, some service providers such as mine aren't e-mail compatible. I think you should check because I'm not entirely sure. You should refer to the manual for chaning the pin. I think all sims have different default pins. E-mail me if you want further help. To Johnny, it is possible to change the message tone, go settings > sound settings and message tone. However you cannot have a custom tone.

  • is it possible to change the message tone? coz i cant =[

  • yess, tommoro i get my e720....i CANT WAIT! im going crazy! They said it will take 3 - 5 working days, so it will come tomoro, friday or monday... I have all the school holidays to play around with it! yesss!Guess how much this phone cost me....$nothing! haha, i got it on my dads plan, most places have this phone on a $55/month plan, but this is on a $33/month !! yesss

  • Cool phone , i know that e730 is better because i have a e730 , but both phone are definatly top at their class

  • hey thx for all ur answers but i got another questions lol =] Is it possible to change your message tone? because ive been trying to change it but i am only able to choose from the default tones =[ thx again...

  • does this phone have screen problems like the E700?

  • my mates have all gt this fone n im jst wondering wether i shud 2. iv read loads ov complaints about the sound. how loud is it rly? lv louise

  • It really depends on your network and usage. Mine lasted four hours from first rechrage with heavy use. Now it seems to be able to last up to 5-6 days on standby for me. I don't know about anyone else but the battery is fine for me, as is the sound and signal.

  • FOR JOHNNY......... 90 meg is a good memory size.... theres nothing you can do about it when it gets full, just delete things off Dawn

  • how many time you must recharge your phone? ive had some troubles, no big deal, but the battery only last 1 day when i recharge for 2 or 3 hours i think the phone is great, great signal, great reception, the only complaints i have are the sound and the bright of the display exposed to daylight, but in fact, its a great buy

  • Does anyone have this phone connected through Cingular?

  • i've just ordered this online after playing with my cousins phone. Think it looks quite good and she said it's better than sony ericsson

  • johnny in answer to your question. the phone memory is 90 meg....... and theres no slot for memory card

  • hi im still waiting for sumone to elp me set up email on my phone.and also help to put a pin number on my phpne... thanks Dawn

  • hey umm whats wit the memory of the fone :S is it possible to get a memory card for more memory or something because i have 9 mp3s and its alrdy past half way on the storage =[ thx....

  • i purchased my phone about a three days ago and i had a bit of trouble with the pims and file manager as it kept saying it was offline. what i did was uninstall everything then installed it again with the internet off, i made the phone modem com4 and then when i opened the pims and file maneger went to settings and changed it to com 4. i didnt connect to the internet at all and it worked. i think you have to actually be offline for it to work. how strange, it will just do its own thing through com4

  • Johnny, did you make sure the date is set correctly? Sean, you can change the front display by going to settings > display settings > wallpaper > cover display > select wallpaper images. The analogue clocks should be there.

  • you upload mp3s by holding the play button on the front when the cds spin click play

  • how do you get the clock face on the front of the fone???????

  • iv had my e720 for 2 months now and its a great phone but i do have to say there are some things that have let me down, they are 1)there is no loud speaker 2)no infra red 3)the speaker is low quality when talking to sum1 but thats it i think its pretty gd i have so many videos and music and still have loads of space i totally recomend it to anyone who wantsmore than a phone out of there phone!!

  • Everytime I come here I see people asking how to upload mp3s. This is an opinion and review section, not a support section. I visit this page frequently to see what users think about this phone before I decide to purchase it, all I read is freakin people asking how to upload mp3s.

  • How many times do people need to ask how to load mp3's before someone who knows how to will speak up. I thought this site was to help people.

  • please help, i already have PIMS & Files Manager software + USB cable, but don't know how to load mp3 onto the pbone...can any1 help...thnx

  • Yen-you download PIMS & File Manager on and you have to buy a usb cable u can get them off ov ebay for �5 or out of your local phone shop which is more expensive

  • I have had the e720 for about 4 months hardly any problems at all yes i have noticed that it scratches pretty easy just wanted to help other users. The charger does not show on the actual phone that it is charging it will show a red light then green when it is full. That really confused me :-o my battery actually lasts quite a while a little disapointed as the e710 came with a spare battery but this did not have loads of mmp3s and the sound quality is good

  • Can anyone please HELP.. How do you load MP3 onto Samsung E720??? PLEASE HELP...thnx

  • The samsung E720 is really great,the camera function is beautiful but there are problems about its memory it's too small to store some MP3

  • Can someone pls help me. I have the e720 and i cant work out how in the world to get mp3s onto it. I have the easy studio 2.o disk but... still can't work it out. cheers.

  • hey everyone, lotsa ppl have been asking for EasyStudio II. i hafta agree that it's hard to find so i'll post the link for it again.. & remember to select your phone model from the list, otherwise you'll end up with the wrong software.. like i did -.-' lol p.s. Go the ADELAIDE CROWS!!!

  • i have a e720 and the ring volume is very poor , is there any way i can increase the volume above number 5 on the phone

  • I got this phone on the Optus 55 plan too.. I must admit I think the sound is inferior to my sonyericsson t610... You gotta turn the volume down a bit perhaps otherwise the voice seems to distort a bit.. It also seems difficult to record sound with the microphone effectively (very quiet). All that said I still love the phone :)

  • PLEASE! Can someone help me before I chuck my puter out the window!! I go to the Samsung website and there in nothing called Easystudio ll at all. I've downloaded 2 things, one seems to be for phonebook sync and the other for images, but I want something for MP3s, or will the software that comes with the dongle I've bought be sufficient? K

  • I have had this handset for a week now I brought it out right on payg and it is full of fantastic features. I have never known a handset like it. Well done Samsung

  • i can't find an integrated speaker phone, and I can get the flash to work as a torch, but not as a ring light. K

  • Also, is anyone else in the UK on Orange with this phone? Is there anyway of getting rid of the awful "helpful" sidebar of quicklinks?? My friend on Vode doens't have it, and i get the feeling from the Orange user guide that its an orange only thing. It covers up half my wallpaper so I'd love to get shot of it. k

  • I've just bought a bluetooth dongle for my phone to get MP3s downloaded, do I still need the easy studio download, or can i go without it? I can't see anything labelled easy studio in the download list on the samsung site anyway! All help gratefully recieved!

  • i just got mine and i think it has alot of great features(a bit limited compared to my v600)but i prefer memory to style.does n e one know if the flash doubles as a ring light.or any other features,if it has an integrated speakerphone?

  • I bought this phone a few weeks ago. I am pretty happy with it, but the battery seems to get low rather quickly and the sound quality when making a call is pretty crap. I have noticed that the reason for the low battery is becuase sometimes I will get the phone out of my bag and realise that I have just recorded a 15 min video of nothing. I seem to press the external camera button without knowing and then I record nothing. Does anyone know how to disable the external buttons? Please help :)

  • Does the phone not show that it is charging when l put it on the charger ?Why veduwee

  • hey sorry the advice from cRaZy was the one i was refering to about the mp3

  • *yay* i finally figured out how to use the mp3 and download photos....spent all morning reading all the comments here and figuring out the EasyStudio II 2.0 PIMS & File Manager and found Rob's advice spot on, guess it was worth it...try it it's real easy and guys.. the phones not really that bad.It's pretty cool ;-) Thanks Rob

  • I just got this phone yesterday with Optus on a $55 plan ( for all you australian kids who'd like to know). I have no idea what you people are talking about with the sound. I just rang my mum. I have really bad reception and i could hear her as clear as day. The camera is such good quality. All round good phone. The phone is so small and lite weight. Mine came with the picture editor cd and usb cable. I just havent figured out how to install it properly yet. Would this be the usb cable i use to put my photos onto my laptop?

  • hello ppl can ne one tell me how to put music video into the phone or wat kind coverter to use if u do holla at me thank you

  • I have had this phone now since the start of this year date posting : 05 sept 05, and i hav no probs with it. although the sound is abit of a problem when calling , bu as mentioned earlier... use a BLUETOOTH HEADSET. i recommend the o2 bluetooth headset but thats your choice. CRACKING PHONE samsung. Samsung Advisor James copper

  • Can anyone please help.. How do you load MP3 on the Samsung E720.. PLEASE HELP...

  • Hi all read some comments about this phone, i have had this phone and touch wood ive had no problems what so ever with this phone, the sound is fine, battery life up 2 3 days even when playing games taking vids ect, i think its a good little phone prob the best ive had and belive me iam addicted to mobiles so ive had a few lol, the only disapointment is you cant use your ringtones for tx messege tone, and u only have a choice ov 5 boring ones on the phone other than that its cool.....

  • I bought this phone because the great design! BUT I'm very disapointed of the choice I made! THE BATTERY LASTS ONLY 24 HOURS!!!! if you listen to mp3's 10 or 15 minutes and you take a couple of pitures with it! The sound is so bad...I'm thinking to sell while I still can!

  • hi, i have a big problem. i got the E720 from the uK but i live in the USA. i cant seem to charge my phone , when i put the charger in it shows me a white light but the phone is not comming on. i bought a comverter but it is steel not working. plees help me. i realy need this to work.

  • Yes the sound quality while on a call is crappy on this phone. But, since I like the phone so much and paid so much $$ for it. I always use my bluetooth headset, which has far better sound quality and your callers can hear you better.

  • Kim, it's not big at all, the pictures were taking at close range that is why it looks big. It's only 9omm in height which is quite good for such a phone.

  • Hiya how big id this phone? i havent seen one yet only pictures and it looks quite long, im after a smart little phone and i like the samsungs, and it seems like everyone has got the d500 and i like the style of this phone! kim

  • I'm a 15 year old teen so im pretty much a tech freak lol.. This phone i can tell u people is very good. the features are very hi-tech, especially the video recorder. i do admit there is alot of menus to go threw to find specific things like sending an sms but that shoudnt be a reason for not getting the phone its not that much of a con. i recomend this phone to people who will actually use its features like MPEG4, mp3, video recorder camera and stuff. People who mostly use their phones just for calling and sms then go for a nokia they're much more easier to use but features arent that WOW.

  • To upload mp3s is easy, just buy a USB cable or BlueTooth Dongle and connect it into your phone. Also Download "EasyStudio II 2.0 PIMS & File Manager". pretty much self explanatory after that. As for the phone. This Phone is pretty Darn GREAT. I'm in the US, and not many phones that are out can measure up to this phone. Mp3 players pretty cool, its light,slick,and easy to use. Only some downs about the phone which are hardly even worth writing. GREAT PHONE GET IT ASAP!

  • well i been having the phong for like couple months now and i been learning new things about it like how to put music on the phone without easy studio and many more but the sound is not bad but signal is another story when i talk on the phone with someone i hav to turn my phone a certain angle jus to get good service and i also dont like how much memory u can get how come it cant be like 512mb or something like that

  • hi guys. im stuck making a decision b/w this fone and the new sony ericcson K750i. the samsung looks better but SE features sounds better. ive never bought i new fone so bit hesitant. any opinions? cheers

  • I don�t think anybody will pay much attention to your comment.. Not even reviewers take the talk\network part seriously, and only very seldon even mention anything about it, in extremely inconclusive fashion.. But hey, it�s the consumers fault, see anyone actually interested in phones just for how good they"phone"? Wish at least some reviewr would read these comments..

  • i am rlly interested in buying this phone as it seems great but one thing thst didnt seem to be mentioned in the revieew on this site, but is mentioned A LOT by users is the sound and making calls...truthfully, is it rlly that bad? or is it hard to hear in loud places, but will do. I don't really recieve many calls as opposed to texts, and my friend has the D500 and sounds fine on hers so i dont see how the sound can be so different between them, but i dont want it to become an issue if i do buy it...?

  • can sum1 gimme a guide from scratch to get mp3s on ma fone pleeeeeeeeeeeease

  • heya im jst wonderin how do u upload mp3 songz on to the fone, do u have 2 pay? sum1 plz help !! xx

  • the e720 is a much over rated its true it looks good and it can be easy to use, but i was unhappy with it booklet set out i would have to take hours out of my time to find out how some parts of the phone works and camara isnt verygood at a party !!!

  • Hey all, does anyone know how i can apply a message tone of my own? I got a really good one sent to me butwhen i try to set it as a message tone it only gives options to setas caller ID or a ringtone?! Please help.

  • Can someone tell me how can i convert a .mp4 like the standard video in the e720 cuz he has 7 mb and is good quality.. what is the best converter for this ?

  • ok dis fone is really great its gd lookin and has a very gd video camera so if dats wat your after buy it but the sounds not too gud it sounds like d person is talkin 2 u is all quiet like they r talkin from behind a cloth oh and the dictionary sux it doesn't store a single word trust me i had to learn it the hard way...

  • This is a very beautiful phone, one must have it, the styling and the size is incredible. I give it 110% points. Bongomin!

  • I am on my 3rd one now. Gorgeous looking phone, sharp display, crap volume and crap signal. I think I must conclude by the other feedbacks, if you are happy not to hear your phone ring and miss calls, and get a bug free phone, which to date I havent, then it is fine. I hate the sight of it now cos I have had 3 due to hanging and signal problems. Wish I had stuck to Nokia now!

  • This fone is useless.. yeah its pretty funky and feature wise its wow, but u have to go through about 6 diff menus and options just to send a freaking sms! Also to get to general options, there is a lot of navigating through menus! not very time efficient!

  • Hey, I just bought this phone, i was a Nokia user before this...but the E720 is just so beautyful and stylish, i could not resist. It has a fairly decent MP3 Player, and can store about 14 songs while still having around 3mbs for pictures. To use the easy studio 2 program try changing the Com ports in file>setup (restart after changing) it should work. For all the Nokia users wanting to take the change i recomend this phone because it has a very similar operating system from Nokia, just a step below and slightly harder but you can get used to it. The more important thing is that you have this stylish piece of phone, and as we all know Nokia makes the worst flip phones. Enjoy your new fashion item! Taa!

  • ei, pls help me. um...is the "easy studio II" software really not compatible with Windows XP? i do not know how to transfer mp3 songs from my pc to my phone using USB cable... can someone pls teach me how? step by step pls... and another thing, whenever i plug in the USB port to the pc the statement "USB port not recognized" appears... someone pls help. tnx!

  • for those who r going to buy it!!! pls do not be trick by those who describe mp3 tones loud and clear. its even softer than any other mobile phones/ cant even compare with a 8250!. if your r going to put it in your pocket without vibrate, be prepare to see miss calls! theres nothing samsung can do abt it. i regretted buying it. it would be the last samsung for me. just bought a w800i. though its a bit expensive, sure its worth the $$$.

  • hey biljana, you said that EasyStudio only displayed COM1 & COM3. i think that u might have the earlier version of EasyStudio. if you dont have EasyStudio 2, take this link and select your phone model to download the latest software.. after installing go to setup and there should be COM ports 2 & 4. Try COM4 as that is the port that works for me. If it is still showing 'Offline' after you do this, make sure that ur usb cable is plugged in properly or isnt faulty.

  • hi got this phone 2day an i got the usb leads i instoled on ma pc but it wnt let me put my music into mp3 wat do i dooo

  • i got this phone 2 days ago and so far i have found it to be great, althought i am having some problems receiving files via bluetooth from my computer. I was wondering if anyone knows how to transfer music files using a bluetooth usb adapter to the phone. thanx

  • This phone is simply technoart, with a great design criteria and obviously a wide variety of exotic functions. i love to have it, it is really cool.

It jus doesnt work for me i set it on all the COMS possible n reload it but its always offline. can some one instruct me on how to use this properly?? my computer first just displayed com1 and com3?? what to do please can some one help me???

  • Query:I've got this phone & I do love it. Its small, compact & pretty user friendly, I'm a bit of a technophobe so I'm hoping someone can help with this query, How do I download the photos? Someone said I should get a USB port but will that work if I want to download music onto the MP3? As you can tell, I haven't got clue. So please help. Thanks!

  • i love samsung e720, as probably many other people that visit this site. Unlike many believe, the sound quality is great, and i really mean it...it's great. I'm sad to see that because the message sound is not loud enough, ppl say the phone "sucks"....that's just stupid. So if you want the best phone on the market do what i did...buy the samsung e720 :)

  • Hello ppl.I would like your oppinion about the sound quality of the E720.Is it really that bad ?I would appreciate any help regarding this problem.Please,if u own the E720 send me an email and share your oppinion about it. Thx, Klax

  • hi guys, i have had this fone for nearly 3 months and im really pleased with it. im always downloading the latest tunes from the net - i had 2 buy the dongle tho but i can us it with other fones in the future. i have had the v3 and although it was better looking that the e72 it only held 1 tune and this holds bout 10-ish. i absolutly love this fone and would recomend it 2 every 1. i have no problems with the sound quality at all. the only thing i would have liked is a memory stik and 2 be able 2 chose my own message tone. apart from that its brill. my mum now has one and thinks its excellent. she had the sharp gx20 b4 and didnt think she could better it. i have yet 2 c another fone that betters this at the moment 4 both style, features and brillness!!! get the fone and enjoy it. loopy lisa

  • Im confused between the MotoRazr V3 or the E720. The V3 is available in india right now, but the E720 isn't as of now, shd i wait for it or go ahead and buy a V3?? Please help

  • to bex >> it is better to buy e720, cuz it is a mix of e700 and d500:)

  • I ordered this handset as a business upgrade from a Nokia. I have also used Motorola phones. Although it looks very stylish and the visuals are excellent, it's next to impossible to use the predictive texting mode with any form of ease or speed. The sound quality when making a phone call is also poor compared to both other makes and I didn't realise that this model doesn't have the option to switch to hands free speaking mode without a car kit. If function is more important than style then this isn't the phone for you.

  • Just bought it... I think it's a very nice phone! Nice screen(s) and the desing and functionality are better than I could ever imagine. CONS: - I can't upload JAVA-Games with bluetooth - I can't change the theme - Battery life seems a bit less than my previous Nokia phones but I gave it a hard time by using it constantly for testing so it might be my fault! Hehe... - You loose a lot of wallpaper-space due to the menu (The huge clock and the coloured bars). It has a big screen but the actual wallpaper size is dissapointing. As you can see these are all small issues and not of great importance. Overall I really like the phone and I'm happy I bought it!

  • i got the phone about a week ago... buff fone!!!da only fing is i don't know how to get mp3#s onto the phone. i download mp3's using piolet and i want to be able to have some on my phone... someone help me pleeease!!! x baby blu x

  • how to upload java games on this phone via BT? i found a tutorial for d500, but it doesnt suite this mobile. here is my mail, so i'll be very grateful if smbdy could explain me how to do it! tnx

  • if u want to noe if the phone comes with the usb cable, yes it does i ask the person working a "b" and she said yes.

When i'm downloading from samsung as wap a messenge is show: Your mobile is not compatible with this service. And in Samsung Web Site E720 is in the compatible mobile phones list. Mail me. [email protected] (MSN)

  • hey everyone these questions have being asked a lot so i thought i might help out! for the people that are having the problem with EasyStudio2 showing 'Offline' when their phone is conneted,(if you havent tried this already) go to File->Setup then use the drop down menu and select COM4 then close & reload the program. i also had this problem and this worked for me, hopefully it will work for you too! and for those who cant transfer MP3's to their phones.. make sure you've selected the music folder on your phone in the file manager. i dont know how it may be with yours but on my file manager i need to select 'Down Contents' -> 'Audio'and then i can select mp3's to upload to my phone. hopefully that helped!

  • Hi everyone Looking to get this phone but is there much difference with the E720 and the E730? Any problems I should be aware of? Does it have a loud speaker or speaker phone function?

  • Hey all i jus got my samsung e720 a week ago and im happy with it apart from the fact that the battery doesnt last too long.but hey im a teen n txt waaay too much so its probably due to that and the fact that the clock on the outer-screen also eats away power but i always have it on.so if u wana save that switch it off in ur settings.im happy with the connection and the volume of the ringtone,im happy with my mp3s and evrything else on it.the recharger gets to me sumtimes but once u plug it in properly and leave it to recahrge its all ok.this fone looks amazing on the outside i think and its got cool features.iv always prefered nokia but this is a great change.if u wana get this fone dont hesitate :P the e700 was good but this is even better.its a machine so i guess it all really depends on if ur lucky enof to get a good one or one that was messed up in the factory from the very begginin.and that could happen with any fone.so good luck and go out ther get it =p

  • ok i worked it out, my charger wasnt a dud after all. the LED indicator light gradually gets greener as it charges! now that i got it all figured out and i've got a chance to use the phone.. well i have one word to describe it.. BRILLIANT! for those people who complain that theres a sound problem when you make calls, i think that you just got a bad batch. if u got a bad one, go back and exchange it for another! it's worth the risk buying it if you're one of those ppl that are unsure about it, coz u wont regret it when u get a good one!

  • I have tried my best to like this phone since I upgraded to it in May. It has great looks and features but as a phone it's poor. Audio quality is hopeless, battery life is poor and ring volume is too low. When you need to ask a customer half a dozen times for their name it must be bad. bring back my Nokia, PLEASE

  • hey "jess", every single phone uses a password for bluetooth..

  • Hey i was just wondering how the messages come up in ur inbox..do they say the name of the person who sent it or does it just come up with the msg they wrote and no name in the inbox...Also one more thing where do u get MP3's from?

  • I find it so hard to figure out the mp3 player it so difficult. and as for the bluetooth well thats a whole differnent story, it keeps coming up password what the apparently its not supposed to do that so what could the password possibly be...... its not even supposed to have a password

  • pretty,compact phone.great video recorder.rubbish voice recorder with pathetic sound volume.bad voice quality during calls,very muffled. to connect to pc/download mp3 the best and easiest option is to get a bluetooth device for your pc and bluetooth everything over that way very simple to set up and managed to get the hardware for 19.99 at pc world to round up...not a bad phone but the call quality could be so much better

  • hey, ive just bought this fone i av had no problems with it SO FAR! yep i am really pleased with it, the mp3 is wicked! and the cam quality is brill. i would definatly reccomend it to anyone. oh yeah and the battery life is brill aswell! thanks love jodie

  • Is this a 3G phone?

  • Hi all, i got my e720 3 days ago. it came with the Software CD and the USB cable. my problem is that even after installing the software (easy studio 2) and the USB driver from the CD, i am unable to connect the phone to my PC. I have checked all the settings (i.e, connection speed, port) and everything seems to be OK. but on the Easy Studio status bar, it always says 'Nothing' or 'Offline', even if my phone is connected. I am using WindowsXP and it detects the phone when i plug it in to the PC. I will really appreciate if someone could help me with this issue as i have been struggling with this problem for last 2 days. Also if possible, reply me via email. Thanx

  • does anybody noe how to transfer java games via bluetooth to tis fone??

  • I have had my Samsung E720 for just about 3 months now. This is an excellent device, I purchased it off of eBay to use in the United States with T-Mobile. I had no problem changing the language or network. It was a bit complicated to change the browser over to T-zones. I am unable to send video meassages, though. All other features work great. I have a Plantronics Bluetooth headset which works flawlessly. I purchased a bluetooth adapter at Best Buy. The only problem is that exchanging files runs VERY slow, but it still works. All in all, this is the greatest phone I have ever had. It get tons of attention (I am the ONLY ONE that has this phone in my area since it is not released in the States) and the MP camera is awesome. Mine has no sound quality issues. I highly recommend this device.

  • great phone, i love it! i would recommend it to any one that is thinking on buying it.

  • im gettin this phone hopefully in the next few weeks. after reading the comments i don't think i will be changing my mind. the style is great and all the other things that the phone has got is just unbeliveable. can any one tell me how many mp3's it can hold? thanks luv jo xxxx

  • go 4 the o2 x3 its a third of the price and much better.

  • how many messaging characters can dis fone hold?

  • Yay! I'm getting this phone next week! I can't wait, it looks fantastic! To vicki- about the usb cable, I think it depends on which store you get the phone from, my friend has this phone and she got a usb cable with it when she purchased her phone. You might be able to buy a usb cable from the store you bought the phone from for around AUS$20

  • vikki if u need a usb cable you should try a local shop like phones4u or if you cant get one from there try a company shop where they sell them to a shop

  • im looking for a new phone because ive gottin bored with my sony erricsom k700i and im looking for a phone with better style and was thinking about getting a samsung e720 or a samsung z500. any seggestions

  • Did you get a USB cable with the phone?

  • can any one help me as i cant get my mp3's from my computer on to my phone? could someone help me on how to do this

  • Hiya, got this phone today and its brilliant! But theres one problem i havent got a usb cable so i can download mp3's so im going to have to buy one and i was just wondering where abouts does the connection go in the phone? Is it where the earphones go? Thanks, Vicki x

  • Liza def get the e720 is a fantastic phone and i can guarentee u will not regret on choosing this one!!

  • It's a great phone..you have to trust me :).Now i have the 6230 from Nokia for over 7-8 moths,But i want a phone more complex and well desined!If i want a phone wich worth to kill for it-- it will definetly be "E720"...It will overcome you --> :)

  • Have had this phone for about two weeks now, the manual I got is in French so I've had to learn everything myself. Main trouble I had was trying to get files to and from the phone to my computer using bluetooth, but I just want to say to everyone that it can be done! :-) Overall I think this is a really great phone, good photo quality, and the mp3 player is a bonus. A lot of complaints I see on here basically come from the fact that people don't know how to use the phone properly. Keep trying and you'll find that this is a really complete phone :-)

  • Hi all getting this phone today, can n e one tell me how many mp3s it holds please and if you get the computor software with the phone or do i have to download it if so were from? thanks guys luv sara

  • thank you guys. one more question.. which one do you think is better... (the quality and the model) samsung e720 or e730? i dont wanna regret buyin one of em :P

  • Hey Liza yes u can cancel a phone call without having to open ur flip! when ur recieving a phone call hold down the buttons on the left side for a bout 10secs n the call that was coming thru will no longer be!!

  • LIZA - You should get this mobile (samsung e720), ive had mine for about 3 weeks now. Answering your questions: 1) yes, it is easy to send messages 2) no, i dont think you can cancel a phone call without opening the flip. Hope i have gave you some help

  • I just received the e720 today, and it's great! The best phone i have had so far! The quality of the images and sound is just unbelieveable. There was rumours of bad sound quality when you phone people or when people phone you, but mine is absolutley perfect. Great phone, would recommend it to anyone.

  • hey after reading people's opinions here.. im thinking to buy e720 now.. although I dont really care about the mp3, cuz all i care about is the small shape n the text messaging. is it hard to send sms using samsung e720? and can I reject a phone call without opening the flip? thanks i hope i get the reply soon!

  • A lot of people have trouble uploading things (including me) but with some research, i found the solution. The problem is usually that you set up the wrong COM port. Solution: Right click on MY COMPUTER and click on properties, then go to device manager and click on MODEMS, you should see something about Samsung, check the properties and it should tell you what COM port its installed in. Then go back to the PIMS program and select that COM port in the setup menu... Voila!

  • hey guys, i know i sound like a big girl but i have no idea how 2 download my music onto the mp3. i appear 2 of downloaded the pims and image editor programs as i can get my pics and phonebook of the fone, but how do i get the music on??? PLEASE HELP!!!

  • There actually IS a way to "add" a word to your phone's dictionary, although it's not so easy to do. 1. Start typing part of the word you want. 2. Push the "0" button (which changes the word your predictive text is trying to figure out) until you see "Add" on the lower left corner of the screen. 3. Use the select button when you see "add" and then manually enter your word. I tested it out with a fake (flufie) word I made up, and the next time I tried to type this fake word, the predictive text brought it up.

  • I'm not having problems using the file manager program. I found the Samsung-made usb cable which came with the cd, but I was scared to use it (bought on Ebay) so I uploaded the programs straight from Samsung's site. Anyone who needs help, just email me...I'm not a big techie, but I can hold my own and figure stuff out...kinda. So far I can upload my pics onto the computer, and I have put around 13 mp3's on my phone from my computer. I had to play around with which port the program was trying to read from, but once I found it, it worked like a charm. PS- I LOVE this phone, even if I'm in America and they aren't supporting extra features for it here!

  • this is the PERFECT phone!! :D I am so pleased with it.. i've been wishing it for a month and I've been reading your oppinions and u kind of scared me with the sound problem.. But, fortunatelly, there is none :D but now,,, i am a lill' confused.. do i need to install a software for it if a buy a bloothtooth dongle? sorry if it is a silly question, but the technology is too advanced for me :P danke

  • Just following up to my comments below, one other usuability feature is that the signal strength on the outside is acutally for *any* network. I assume this is so you can make emergency calls if your network has no service. The network indicator inside goes 'grey' rather than colour if your network has no service, and the phone says 'limited service'. You get a variable number of grey bars depending on other network signals in the area. When you close the phone, it says 'limited service' as well, but *again* this goes off after a few seconds. So, if you look at your phone with it closed, you may think you have a signal, when you in fact don't. Only opening the phone, will tell you for sure. Why oh why do they not have a way of leaving the external display on!!!! Tabber

  • Hey i just bought this phone a few days ago and its great, but I cant seem to work the easy studio. Ive installed everything on the cd and when i use the "PIMS and file manager" program i am able to edit my phonebook and that, but i cant work the file manager. When i click on it,nothing happens. If anyone knows that the problem PLEASE tell me, u can email me or something PLEASE. i really wanna put music n vids on my phone, thankz

  • i dont understand what the easy studio cd has got to do with being able to get songs from computer to phone and i dont understand what bluetooth has to do with any of it also. can somemone please tell me what i have to do..

  • hi, ive had this fone 4 24hours now and it is one of the best fones i have ever owned, but needles to say there is one flaw. 1. The camera takes exelent pictures and superb videos but if ur in a slightly dark area it can go slightly but only slightly fuzzy even with flash on. I have a question. how can i connect to vodafone live, i got this mobile free and every time i try 2 connect i says: service is not available 8even when i have full covarage). can u only connect to vodafone live using bluetooth or can u do it using GPRS or GSM plz plz plz help me i realy would apreciate it coz i cnt wait to start downloading videos, pictures, tones n games :) lol Thaks

  • Can anyone tell me what is the wallpaper size of the E720 and how long can it do VIDEO ?????

  • Does it record so i can set them as my ringtone? , and how long does it video for please help me getitng one 2moro

  • i've juz bought this phone today.my 1st phone that i paid it on my own.i've been considering this phone for quite some times n eventually i've made up my mind to buy it.i've seen e730.but somehow i prefer e720.it looks better though it lacks of some functions like loud speaker,infra red,etc.but after all it's fantastic phone.if u wanna buy a good yet afforable phone.u may go for e720..fantastic yet cheap .. great job samsung! :)

  • If you appear offlmine try changing the com port by going through till it reads.. go to file then setup.. once u do that u will find the program excellent. It lets u put mp3 music file only though... not wav

  • Had one for a few days now, and certainly a great phone. Don't understand this 'call quality rubbish' comment from a lot of people. its absolutely fine. Things I am a bit unsure about are:- 1. The external display only stays on for a few seconds, which means if you have a missed call, you won't know it. You have to open and close the phone, or hold down one of the volume keys on the outside for a few seonds to get the display on again (for a few seconds), and see you had a missed call. 2. You can only set the ring tone/message tone, etc. to either Vibrate, Vibrate then Ring, or Ring. There is no option for 'Vibrate AND Ring". BIG design flaw in my opinion. 3. You don't get a cable with it, which you will need to buy (or a bluetooth dongle), in order to transfer MP3s, videos etc. Manual very unclear on all of this. 4. The text messaging is very poorly designed. There is no 'add to dictionary' option like Nokia have had for years, and the way you have to search for a number in the address book, means it takes almost 10 keypresses to address a text. That's it so far. Still very pleased with it, and I just hope I will learn to live with the above flaws. Tabber.

  • hey guyz... this is a great site.. and THIS is a great phone.. 1 problem.. It seems that connecting the phone via cable is kind of a problem for me. I got everything installed, driver, program, connected phone yet the computer doesn't find the phone as connected but says offline istead. I got winxp without service pack 2. Some1 please any tips or ideas?

  • Call quality terrible!! Good at everything except being a phone!

  • do i need a blue tooth dongle to transfer mp3 onto my phone.? how does it work n wot do i do....pls reply

  • The samsung e720 is a wicked phone the best i have yet, the features it functions are amazing such as the mp3, 1 megapixel camera, hour of video recording time and also the quality of it too it also has many other cool features but it would to long to go through them all! Also if anyone needs help getting mp3's onto the phone feel free to contact me at [email protected] also if some of you are wondering which is better the e720 or the d500, the awnser in my oppinion is the e720 for its video quality and other features, but the d500 i reckon would be my next choice if the e720 wasn't made.

  • after a long thought i came to the decision to get the e720...it is definatley a must and also far better than the d500..they break and are huge. i am soooooo pleased with my buy and to anyone who was like me and cant decide (e720 or D500) go 4 the e720. i heard the rumors that the calls are crap but everyone who i call say that the quality is crisp clear when i chat. go for it its truely is a sick phone..!!!!!!

  • I love my phone however i am really confused as how to transfer music from my computer to my phone. I have the blue tooth dongle but no PIN number so cant transfer the music which is annoying. However I love the quality of the photos and videos which i can take.

  • all samsung mobiles hav a huge memory space.. good..!! but this fone shud hav had infrared port.. its sounds really odd - a fone with bluetooth but no infrared port..???

  • I just received my phone today, it seems pretty good so far but like most im dying to transfer music from my computer, and have no idea how! Its a bit crap they dont provide the necessary tools, however where can these "Bluetooth Dongle" things be bought?! Or is there any other way?...is all very complicated! I think Samsung should provide more support on this, but till then please someone expand on the 'Dongles'!!

  • will i have problems with the calls on orange pay as u go... i herd that some of these phones have problems making and recieving calls...or have they got rid of the faulty ones?

  • I haven't got this phone yet but if someone who has it could answer my question this would be good. roughly how much is it for the data link cable etc? i heard you have to buy it to transfer photos and songs etc to and from your phone? my last question is for those who have this phone/know anything about it, can you only play mp3 songs through ear phones? or is their a speaker on the phone to do that? because i mean the mp3 ringtones when someone calls has to come on? so it should have a speaker in it to play mp3s out loud right? its just that the d500 in the catologue states it has an "inbuilt speaker" whilst the e720 doesn't. I have a nokia 6610 atm, do you think given that im in aust the e720 is a good phone to go with? or is there another better suggestion? a reply would be good asap(buying phone plan in 2 days time) thanks!

  • hey I am looking at buying this phone and would really appreciate if anyone who has the phone could tell me any problems they have had and if they would recommend. Thanks :)

  • Allan, thank you i did like you said, now everything is ok. i can see phone's files on my pc and transfer them. ;)

  • I cannot find how to make the phone ring more than 3 or 4 times before it goes to answer phone. Any help would be apppreciated. I have searched through the manual and cannot find how to change the setting. Thanks

  • Ziggy, You need to set the files to be in shared mode on your phone before they appear on your PC's screen. To do that, just go to the folder, eg. Photos, chose 1 photo, select potion, then scroll to bluetooth sharing, and set for all. Return to main and access the files via your standard bluetooth software. -Alan

  • I owned that phone about a week ago. It looks good, mp3 player sound quality (with headphones) good, movies good (photo quality average). Phone really pretty, has much features, nice interface, but... The only thing that confuse is sound quality... When you call to someone, it looks like you moved few century's back - the sound quality is really bad. Im gonna take this phone to repair shop to fix or mod that speakers, cuz its really really confuse. Without this problem, the phone worth attention.

  • To get MP3 files on my samsung E720 I need a USB Cable does anyone know where I can get it from or where I can order it from the internet.If you do please e-mail me, I'd be very thankful!

  • you do not get the data cable with the phone. you can play MP3 music both through the headphones and through load speakers.

  • Is the cable that connects the phone to the computer included in the package? Or do you have to buy it seperately? Can it play MP3 files out loud, like the E398? Or do you have to use the headphones?

  • i love this fone! its awesome, so many advantages and good factors compared to some other fones on the market today. but i've got 1 lil question. is it possible to put mp3s onto the fone with out actually connecting it to your computer?

  • Can somebody please tell me about the quality of the mp3s when set as a ringtone? I have recently received the z500 and the ringtones are so quiet I can barely hear it! I am thinking of sending it back and swapping it with this phone, any help is appreciated.

  • It's easy , i use a bluetooth dongle, just make sure the files you wish to send to your computer are SHARED, a.k.a click and go to Share for bluetooth. Then just pair the phone and the computer, like you would with a normal phone . (by entering THE same code, when asked by each device)

  • Does anyone know how I can save mp3 music on the cell phone....easily?

  • I had a big problem with this phone. It always tried to find the network. I had until now 25 or maybe 30 phones (including nokia 9500, sony erricson P910, and many others) and I never have had such a big problem

  • to alan, I understand, it is the user's choice and it is thier preference. So why nokia also did not put an option of vibrating first then ringing begins? So much so, they are just phones and each has its own unique functions which user's has to choose to suit their preference.

  • thes phone iths great. i never have phone like sow motch memori 90mb its hutch!!

  • to renz, On the contary, people want the phone to vibrate and ring at the same time is because not everyone works or are in quite places, and work do demand us to be at place which is not too noisy and also not quite... sort of in between and the phone just ringing (especially MP3) might be heard or it might not be heard. Thus the Vibration let us know it is ringing and awareness of the ear to pick up the specific ring tone to answer or let be. And for us business people... missing calls is a no no. And answering wrong calls is also a no no. I'm sure you get what I am trying to tell you right? At least Samsung could have let an option in the phone for the user to choose, like Nokia (which I have long migrated away from btw so as not to be labeled "fanboy") And yes... I'm a Samsung user for a long time and still am a supporter. -Alan

  • ps, wot is the address for the easy studio site? and are the downloads free? im not sure how it works. also, is there a handsfree option when calling? x

  • I think its a great phone. i do agree that the sound on calls can be a bit dodgy on times but overall its not too bad. I only found out recently that you can have video clips as your main background, how many other phones offer that i wonder. the pictures are of a high quality also. the media player is cool but it can be a little quiet at times. the positive points far outweigh the negative though! x

  • i recently bought this fone and its fab! i then bought the data cable and easy studio II to transfer songs to the mp3 player, but it wouldnt connect, i then bought a bluetooth dongle and i now find out that that dont work, help me please... how do i get songs onto the mp3 player?

  • to allan, I do not think that paul is being insinsitive to riz or whatever it is just he answered the question asked and i believe and considered that vibrating and ringing at the same time is a shortcoming for a phone and samsung corrected that. What is the use of vibrating and ringing at the same time when u cannot feel the vibration neither u cannot hear the ringing. It is just a waste of effort and power for the phone. I also believe that the said function is just a display of pride having a great phone by making everybody to hear ur phone is ringing and it is unnecessary to have that kind of function. I do not know what the engineers was thinking when they made the phone ring and vibrate at the same time.

  • well as i can see you are all interested in me getting my samsung e720, but after the long wait i finally got it today and its better than i expected, the sound is fantastic and the ringtones are great i give this phone 100 out of 100! im glad i finally cn hold it and play with i instead of just looking at he pictures here on the net! I recommend this phone to all!!!

  • to Paul, I think you respond to riz is very insensitive and narrow minded. Not everyone is like you who have fantastic hearing or whatever not. There are many people out there who wants the phone to vibrate and ring at the same time. So please, be more sensitive to people and not make such comments at other's needs. Also we know that there are customized mmf that can have vibration codes embedded... but we want to use MP3s as ring tones. And also MP3 ring tones in general are always softer then standard polyphonic or monotone ring tones. So more reasons to have the phone ring and vibrate at the same time. -Alan

  • rizla001, are u joking with ur silly question? where is the logic of having ur phone ring and vibrate at the same time. As we all know if u want to vibrate ur phone, it means u cant hear it ringing or u dont want it to ring and for that reason samsung has a logic reason for that. It then can save battery power for samsung vibrate the phone 3x and then it starts ringing. Why some people want thier phone to vibrate and ring at the same time besides doing so is very ubnormal for a phone. Anyway, basically samsung wants thier phone to be effective and efficient by saving much battery power and that is the reason why they do not make thier phones to vibrate and ring at the same time. In addition u can always download ringtones with vibration and rythmic lights at the same time. So long.

  • tell me why, but why any samsung can't ring and vibrate at the same time????

  • Does anyone know the display size in diagonal (inches)? Thank you

  • Well guys tomorrow's the big day i've been waiting for, for so long, I will finally collect my e720 at 10am and fill out all the necessary paperwork. For all those interested i'll let u know hopw it goes and if i have any problems with it (ie: the sound everyone is talking about) Well until then!!!

  • To Katie, Well... I'm also interested in the Z500 for the vibrate and ring at the same time feature as well as the memory card expansion... However I'm kinda reserve about it because, frankly the photo capture in the Z500 is really a let down as well as the video recording. The E720's camera does a better job at recording and also taking photos. Z500 as I know it, records in QCIF resolution (177x144) and in 3GP format as oppose to E720's CIF resolution (352x288) and in MP4 format. The lacking of a flash is also puzzling on Samsung's part. The flash for the E720 is kind of effective and powerful for a camera phone. That's my take on the Z500 compared to E720. Never played with the D500 so I can't say anything except I know the D500's camera for photo is very good, but it ain't a clamshell. If Samsung's new firmware does address the camera image issue and also allow saving into MP4 format, I would go for the Z500 then. Until then... I'll skip and stick with my E720C. -Alan

  • just got E720 last night .When i got home found out tat all keypad tone not working ecept beep tone... kinda dissapointend. I'm gonno take it to da shop tis afternoon.

  • Guys and Gals, Please help. My E720C now causing me trouble. The phone keeps reset itseft due to unknown faulty and its getting worse.

  • The ideal resolution is 176x144 pixels. I use Samsung PC Studio II to download music and pics - works perfect. Read HELP, people. Hint: There are 2 USB Drivers to install: Mobile USB and CDMA USB driver. Then connect your e720 to PC, start PIMS & File manager, go File>Setup and try different Ports (COM1, COM2...) Ya'll get connected. No sound problem with my phone. The firmware - E720XXEC5. I know there is E720XXEC9 avail ;)

  • Gill, I think your problem is with your laptop. The phone saves video in 3gp or Mp4 format depending on your settings. I am guessing your PC is running windows. If this is so, you will find that it does not recognise these formats. The easy way round the problem is to download the free version of 'Quick Time Player' This will play both formats without any trouble. Hope this helps.

  • When will the Samsung E720 be released in Massachusetts? What service provider will it be on?

  • the phone is like a gun metal grey

  • I've had this phone for a couple of months now and have had no problems, i really needed a phone that woule take decent videos and photos as i attend a lot of gigs and so want some good reminders of the night. A few days ago i sent all my videos on my phone to my laptop through bluetooth, everything appeared to be fine until i attempted to play the video and it said that it was a data file and would not play, is there any way that i can change the file type on my phone or does it lie with the computer needing altered? Please reply as soon as possible, thanks, Gill.

  • it has beautiful design and best quality of mp3.

  • Motorola V635 is a better buy becuase it has memory expand, plus it looks solid with ot metal covers!! Samsung E700 has tonns of problams and E 720 will be the same !! E700 displays start flickers after using some time and also it gets dots!! Samsung E700 was the most ugliest phone I ever had Only the design is very good, Motorola V600 was the best durable clamshell I ever owned! My very old Motorola T 720! phone still work but not my Samsung E700! It was a junk

  • I am happy because I will buy E720 phone tomorrow

  • I bought this phone from a catalogue and I'm glad I did as I could return it back. I found it was a good phone but failed on a fw points. Its true about the ear piece, you can hardly hear people and when you talking to them you have to make sure your mouth is right next to the mic. The texting part is awful, you cant have the phone setup for predicting text. The camera is a good feature though and the music player is great but I think that is what the phone was made for. If it wasnt for the phone calls and the texting I would of kept the phone. Its just a shame that Samsung passed all the parts that they intended for the phone except that they failed on the part that its supposed to be a phone and texting. But I will suggest one more, make sure the next phone has some sort of memory expansion if ya going to let people have MP3's on it.

  • Other people have some problems hearing what I'm saying. My voice just disappear for a 1/10 of a second or so several times every minute. Firmware code: E720CPED1 Hardware Version: Rev1.0 Software Version: REV 1.0g

  • were do u get easy studio 2 from plz email bout it chears otherwise a gr8 fone

  • in response to people who are trying to download mp3 songs onto their moblie phone. i bought a dongle that connects into a usb port for �11 off the internet.when you set it up you can download most songs from your music files.you just click onto the bluetooth soleil.thats software that is loaded onto the computer when you put the disc that comes with the dongle into your computer.you then drag the song you require into the file soleil and it then loads it into your phone.it is easy to do once you have the disc loaded and your bluetooth switched on your phone.

  • Just purchased this wicked little phone, Features are REALLY REALLY good. I was a bit unsure of it when i read other peoples review of the ear piece speaker. Everyone on here said it was awful. I have noticed the sound quality is not perfect, it is a bit distorted & husky (unless im imagining most of it after reading the reviews) .But hey i can hear people they can hear me, and thats all i need. Great features, Looks are tops, overall really good phone and im so happy i chose this one.

  • im buying this fone and i aint gonna spend no �180 if the sound quality iz crap az u all put it plz plz plz plz plz email me if you have this fone @ [email protected] perlz i wud like to no ! thanx , rach xxx

  • Nige, No not guessing samsung had faulty batches so if yours is faulty just get it replaced and hopefully you'll have better luck with that one, it really is a fabby phone once you'll get one that works.

  • Are you sure that the poor sound quality was due to ' faulty batches', or are you just guessing? I am now using a replacement hand set, as the first was faulty according to Orange. This one is no better than the first! I am going to contact them again.

  • Hi, my bf got this fone its nice but the only thing wrong I think is you can't send mp3 ringtones through mms. I have a nokia 6230 and try sending him mp3 ringtones on his fone from mine but they wont play why is this? as they are both in mp3 format. Can ne2 help with this problem?

  • how on earth do i get MP3's downloaded on this phone non technical terms plz i have looked everywhere on the phone and manual. Thanx...

  • This is a fabby phone it did have some sound quality issues but this was due to a small number of faulty batches if yours has sound quality issues your service provider will simply replace it, easy as that.

  • how do i get mp3 music on my phone without easystudio 2

  • if you are in New Zealand don't buy this phone as you will not be able to configure it at all It totally sucks

  • To Jim Bob. Yes you can listen to the music without headphone..through earpiece. Play the music and adjust the volume keys. But the sound will not be as good as headphone.

  • can you listen to music without having the headphones in?

  • Does any one know if you can make calls via speaker phone and were to get a attachable speaker like the d500 as it says you can get one in the manual? Please help

  • I put the phone in "quiet mode" and it is set on "mute" (i.e. no vibration). It remains quiet when I receive a call or a message, but when it is in mute, quiet mode the phone still vibrates on a low battery warning! Any idea how I can stop this?

  • For Nige. Thank you very much for your help. I finally able to access to photos folders and deleted them all per your instruction. Beside this bug. This phone is great. the sound is very clear. Photos and videos are perfect. The only problem I got is the terrible software. I also have MPX-220, the software is a Microsoft friendly user but just like Bill Gate..alot of bugs that some time hang the phone for no reason. Every one..Do not buy MPx-220. The phone turn off by itseft with an average once a week.

  • To Tung Nguyen. I also had this problem when i tried to upload photos from the PC using Samsung's software. Try this. Take about three or four photos using the phones own camera in the normal way. You should be able to see the photos when you go to the photos folder. DONT select the first one!, select the third or fourth one. then press options. Select delete all. This should cure the trouble I don't use Samsung's software anymore. I use the software that came with my Bluetooth dongle

  • Let's do this a bit more scientificaly! Everyone state if they have the sound problem or not and then post the following info: Firmware code: (type in *#1234#) Hardware Version: (type in *#2222#) Software Version: (type in *#1111#) Mine has medium/poor sound and is: Firmware code: E720ADED1 Hardware Version: Rev1.0 Software Version: REV 1.0g What is everybody elses?

  • heres a tip for all the people who want to buy the phone, make sure the company you get it from can refund or exchange the phone if its the 'crap sound quality' one. because its not worth keeping the crap sound quality. you want to buy soemthing you are satisfied with, i got hyped up about this phone as much as you all did. just made me more dissappointed in the phone i suppose. just make sure you can exchange the phone or something. its a risk!

  • can anyone help. i have a e720 and i lost the charger. im having a hard time trying to find a charger in the U.S. THANKS

  • I having problem with the phone..I uploaded pictures from computer to photos folder (supposed to be download contents). Since then.I can not view pictures in photos folder any more. Every time I click photos, the phone exist like it turns off and back on by itself. Any one know how to fix it. Please help

  • I've just received my E720 and I love it! People - the sound is terrific. It was so loud and clear I had to reduce it to the minimum. If you have any problms than it might be the network or you just got lucky getting a bad phone (which shouldn't be really the case). It looks like the battery life is way shorter than I am used to have with Motorola T720i and I didn't even start using camera and MP3 player. Well, it's very slim and I discovered it's better that it was for E715. I love the Samsung PC Studio II 2.0 that you can use to create and transfer pics, rings and MP3s to the phone via USB connection (available free from the Samsung web) as well as update your contact list and calendar events. Personally, I think this is a very good phone and, despite all the negative experiences some people have had, it's well worth a shot.

  • how long can this fone video 4?

  • i had read sum of the opinions of other people and i have just ordered a samsung e720 but everyone says the sound quality isnt very good is it the fone or the network becos my current fone has poor sound quality at times but can be really good. i contacted o2 and i have been told they have had a few problems with the network

  • i'm really stuck finding somewhere to download easystudio 2. i don't know any other way to download the mp3's onto my phone other than ging on the wireless internet. can someone help??? e-mail me at [email protected] thanks in advance x

  • I have an e720 on O2 contract from O2 online and the sound quality on mine was really poor. Took a month to figure out it was my phone that was the problem so it was out of the 28day replacement. Also had problems with no settings saving.. Phoned O2 who said take it to a shop and they will send it to be repaired. Two weeks later got my phone back and not only were none of the problems repaired but Samsung had damaged the phone where they pulled it all apart. Have now sent it back again but O2 said because of the damage 9 times out of 10 Samsung would now do a straight replacement. Have also asked O2 to ask Samsung what they actually did to 'repair' it the first time round seeing as nothing was different about the phone when I got it back apart from all the damage! O2 deny that they are seeing lots of problems with the E720 but while I was in the shop I heard two other people complaining. Also depsite the fact that they normally have over 20 loan phones for use when yours is sent away both times now they have had none left because so many phones are being returned to them.. My opinion - dont get this phone if you actually want to use it to talk to people!

  • to heaf id go for x3

  • I'm going to get the samsung e720 ... Only one problem is annoying me: Everyone says the sound quality while speaking is poor. Is it a network problem? I'm on swisscom... Thanks, RSVP ASAP

  • I have had this phone for around a month now on O2, I think that the phone is great, one of the best ive seen around at moment. Screen quality is good, video is exceptional aswell as the looks of the phone. The only real fault I have found with the phone is that it is incapable of ringing and vibrating at the same time, also ringing volume isnt great.

  • Hi there. Me and my husband both have this phone and neither of us have had any problems whatsoever. However, a friend does have the same phone and I have to say that the sound quality is poorer than we've got. A faulty batch seems the most likely explanation.

  • honestly, if you use the fone to talk alot, Do Not Get The Phone. if you want it for talking, its a 3/10. impossible to communicate on it. im telling the truth. but if you want it for the features, then its an 8/10 im just ****ed cos i cant download games to it cos it says the file is too large, and the file is only 53kb in size. argh anyone know any other way to download games onto the phone using GPRS?

  • thinking bout getting an x3 but dont no if its any better than the samsung 720? which would u go 4??

  • is the sound quality really as bad as everyone says?

  • I am now on my third replacement of this mobile from O2 who deny any knowledge of fault in the sound quality. All they want to do is send me yet another. Today I asked them to ring Samsung to find out for me, who also deny any problems with the phone sound quality. Unbelieving I telephoned Samsung myself they say they have not heard of any problems. Such a shame look shape and user friendly phone - such a shame you cannot have a conversation on it!

  • I NEED HElP i am tinking about buying this phone but is it true that you can't hear people that your talking too..........

  • could someone email on how to get mp3 tracks on my new fone plz [email protected]

  • Had phone 2 weeks -fantastic all round except audio quality when speaking to someone terrible -sent back to vodafone. Told that they have stopped selling it after only a month or two -presumably due to huge number of returns with audio problems -getting a D500!

  • where to start.. the speaker quality is alrite, u can hear good, but the thing is, the person you are calling cant here you properly, especially wen u're using a handsfree, its almost impossible to figure out wat you're saying.. i find that the worst quality of this fone i was impressed by the video camera, its the best i've seen, but it takes up alot of space wen on maximum quality. wen in the viewfinder mode (to take photo's) it seems very laggy, but wen u take the shot its clear.. its weird because its not laggy wen you switch over to video mode im a fan of the e700 series, this one has the looks, but is a tad bigger than the e700 in size, im not sure about the screen losing its contrast, i do not trust it to have improved on this fone either, just be careful wen opening n closing the fone. the way i copied music onto the phone, was have another phone with music + bluetooth(eg nokia 6230) and copy the songs thru bluetooth, takes about 2 minutes to copy a song. umm any other questions, u can email me. out of 10, honestly.. i give it about a 8 though im looking forward to the SE k750i

  • hey.. can i noe if the shutter sound for the camera of this phone can be turned off?...and is the clicking sound of the keypad very loud?? someone pls answer me...thanks...

  • I was just wondering if anyone could tell me if the Samsung E720 is better than the Sony Ericsson Z1010.I only have a Sony Ericsson T630 now , but i'd really like to get the Sony Ericsson Z1010's the only problem is its a little to big.But i also like the Samsung...so many decisions..Does anyone know if the Samsung E720 is in Australia yet?..Cheers!

  • this phone is superb in video recording. i have problem retrieve pop3 email using this phone.please somebody here help me. pleaseeee... [email protected]

  • i want to but this phone but i have one question.if you know there were some problems with the other models like E700 and E710,in time the contrast of the display was very poor and after a long time the contrast was lost and you could only saw a white LCD(i refer to the main LCD).If anybody can tell me if E720 has the some problem or it's better in this way.Thank you!

  • I upgraded from se k700i to samsung E720 but was a little worried about how the sound quality would be after reading others reviews. When it arrived sure enough the sound quality was not good,fuzzy,crackly, so have sent it back. K700i has been great so plan to upgrade to Se k750i instead. Really wasnt impressed with the phone in general.

  • thank you Xman. i have another question: can you listen to music without having the headphones in? thank you

  • I have just purchased this phone and i think its great! The price tag was a little high though at �250 but it was worth every penny. It has great features and i would recommend it to anyone!

  • Amazing phone best i have ever owned picture quality is the top notch i will always own a samsung from now on........

  • hi jim bob.this phone can support up to 1836 characters for messaging. this is a great phone. i like the MP3, specially when u listen to it wearing the Samsung stereo headset.very cool! i also love the look.very elegant. and the colour brightness of the screen.

  • Ok guys, I think there are enough opinions about it. Let's solve some .mp4 problems on da phone. Did someone of You sucessfuly played .mp4 on computer? Ok the move is well seen, but where is da f***in' sound?!!!! On phone mp4 plays well together with sound. But what about PC? What the sound codec is? I'm sick of searching for strange audio codec that uses this phone!!! HELP HELP HELP! :(

  • how many texting charatcers can this phone hold?

  • Hi all, A little update for you all. Used the phone the whole day today without issues. Bought myself a Jabra FS258 (called BT250 out of Asia), it paired without problems. I can use both Headset profile mode as well as Handsfree profile mode. The person on the receiving size could not tell if I was using a headset or not :-) While driving (and my car is pretty loud), the people I talked too did not noticed I was even driving... now I'm impressed (this is probably due to the headset's feature and also combined with the handset's voice clarity thingy being on... I think) No sound issues, infact I would say the sound is very clear and sharp. Guess the unbranded ones are safe from the sound issues. My gripe, as mentioned earlier... no ringing with vibration when using MP3... argh... well.. at least it is kind of solved when I have my headset on as it gives a few consistent beeps when I receive a call. Well.. that's all for now... man I love my phone :-D (not as much as my girl though :-P) -Alan

  • hi to everyone, ive been hearing quite bad things about the e720 and all i want to know is when it comes out in australia and for how much, is the sound quality soo bad? i was thinking about buying this phone as it looks like a fantastic phone to get so if anyone has any information please email me please email me this is very important to me. bye

  • i don't know how to download mp3 on my phone...if some1 know it...please e-mail at [email protected] thx

  • I need some help with bluetooth i dont know my bluetooth pin how can u find out Plez reply to [email protected]

  • And I'm loving it :-D Didn't play much with it, as I just wanted to drain the "factory charge". But from what I have played with so far... quite happy... except some minor gripe. 1. To use groups have to copy contacts to phone memory... something I never liked but oh well. 2. Cannot assign specific SMS tone to groups. 3. Does not vibrate and ring at the same time unless customized MMF (why use MMF when can use MP3.. but forced to use to get vib and ring) 4. converted MP3 to MMF using ATS-MA5-SMAF does not play on the phone. That are the four gripe I have. Others... very happy and also the camera... better then expected, way better then my crappy Innostream A10's 1.3 MegaCrapPixel camera. Video recording is fantastic. And on the note of sound... very clear, no distortion or muffled sound what so ever. I believe the sound issue is due to network operator's customization of the firmware. Mine is default samsung non-branded (ok... Samsung brand if you want :-D) Will post photos taken with it later... when I finish my full 8 hours charge. -Alan

  • can the colour (skin) of the start menu be changed to other colours so that it's not orange?

  • Good phone, I agree with the comment on the external screen not being more informative. I finally managed to setup my email and it's flawless. The biggest grip I have with it is ergonomy: the keys are hard to feel, too hard to press and the navigation key inconsistent in its use as well as doesn't allow keydown = contacts. This I don't understand as it used to be on my old 105. I am looking for ways to customize the phone's OS, anyone knows how to hack into it?

  • hi every1, if anyone wants to know anything about the e720, e-mail at [email protected]

  • Help Please, i cant work out how to set up MMS messaging to sent PXT etc, anyone able to help? the manual didnt come in english

  • Hi, I used to swear by Nokia years back but there design team just seem like they are on acid now, not knocking the actual phone but the design, anyhoo I used to have a motorola v500 great fone, now got samsung e720, after my sister was soo chuffed with d500, all I want to know is, Is there a fool proof way of getting my mp3s from itunes onto my phone? ie usb cable that plugs into fone, I also recently went to a U2 conert and have alot of precious pics and vids that I want to store on my laptop is this possible, Please help but nothing to technical please

  • how do you make your wallpapers fit to your screen, without white spaces at the sides???

  • Does anybody know how or if you can delete names/numbers from your recent recipient list??

  • The phone is great. I have no sound quality problem. Maybe i'm one of the few who received a flawless unit. I like the design, its too elegant. But there are some thing that disappoint me with e720, it has no infrared, there is no memory slot (you need it if you want to download more mp3) and the ringtone you only use the preset one. Although you can set mp3 as ringtones.

  • can i set e mp3 as my ringng tone?

  • I love my new phone and i desperately want to put MP3s on it. Is there anyway i can put them on without having to buy these wires because im at my dads house and will have 2 wait until i get home and i cant! please help me so i can listen to them on the train home lol :D thanx

  • great phone i love it.....But only one think.. U can not see that u miss an call .. after en fiew seconds it dissapeares from the outside screen....... Bad thing...

  • to nastya this phone can ring and vibrate but most of the preset rings don't though there is a couple that do all you need to do is make sure you download ones that do both...

  • is it true that the phone can't vibrate and ring simultaneously? i can handle evrething rlse but this is something I insist. please don't tell me it's true!!!!

  • WOW! What a fantastic phone. would reccomend this to anyone! great mp3 player AND NOTHING WRONG WITH SOUND QUALITY! :-)

  • If I have a data cable what software do I need to download Mp3's from My laptop? Thanks

  • hallo everyone im gonna get this fone today can u tell me about the fone. this fone is kikkin every other fon on the market!!! and u all no that!

  • HI everyone im gettin this fone today of the phone from t-mobile.just wanted to ask how the phone and how the picture qualty is.and do u get the usb cable with the phone.

  • hi to everyone critizing this great phone E720. First all this phone is not for the damn and stupid, so for those who say bad things about this phone are not worth having this trendy and elite premium phone because it does not match to your damn and stupid personalities. I think all costumization about this phone is just inside its user interface to answer about all your stupid claims about this phone. Anyway only those trendy, elite and smart person will probably can own and operate this amazing phone, the E720.

  • just to clear up everything about the sound quality, the sound on some of the models is bad and on other models it is good, but more people have recieved the model with bad sound quality, so you would be a bit lucky if you got this phone and had good sound.

  • Firstly we develop on mobile phones so we have lots of handsets around our office, and I'm not a fan of any particular make so have no axe to grind. We got an E720 so we could check our application compatiblity, and since I use an E700 personally, I thought I'd check it out as a replacement. Nice phone but 2 flaws: 1) Orange's really annoying start menu jobbie. I need to find a way to remove that, Our unbranded D500 seems much nicer interface wise. 2) Sound quality. It's not right. At the lowest volume you get distortion, and sound is muffled (as other people have said). This is inexcusable for a phone and I'm shocked they've got away with releasing it, even if only certain batches were flawed. It's the worst sound of ALL of our handsets, including the old nokia and sony phones. Yes you could live with it, but why should you have a hi-tech phone with sound from an 80's motorola brick! Decent phone other than this, but (2) is a fatal flaw and I wouldn't recommend the phone to anyone until they sort the sound quality out.

  • HI, I have just been reading all the e-mails about the samsung E720. Is the sound a real problem as I am thinking of purchasing one some time next week but I have been put off by the sound quality of the phone. Is it really bad or is it just speculation! Please please someone e-mail me back about the sound on it as soon as possible. Thanks

  • Just bought this phone and i think its outstanding. Had about 7 different phones one been the motorola v3 and this licks all of them. Well done samsung keep up the good work

  • I had this phone upgraded on Orange,UK. Its a brilliant phone, everythings a joy to behold but theres one flaw in the phone. Sound quality when making and receiving calls is very bad.I rang Orange and someone told me that their all like that and had had no end of phones returned to them. I returned mine. Guess Ill wait for the E730. It looks brilliant and hopefully Samsung will sort out the phone fault.

  • Hi i am looking at buying one of these phones but i have found it really hard to find out how big the screen is in cm/mm???? i have receieved 3 diff sizes. can some 1 with this phone please help me out? Thankyou

  • Hi, This is a fantastic phone don't get me wrong, it blows the D500 out of the water. But for me, the external mp3 buttons (which are a great idea) are sadly redundent due to the rubbish headphones that come with the phone! the heavy volume control which hangs from the left earpiece pulls it out of my ear! very frustrating, does any one know where I can obtain better earphones? please send me a link. ps downloading tunes from your comp to phone is easy - just buy a dongle from ebay for about a tenner or a USB lead which is quicker, although I don't see the point of downloading tunes (otherthan for ringtones) cause you can't use the phone as a walkman because of those stoooopid ear phones.

  • buying the phone for 360$AU is that a good price?

  • Im going to get it on the 15th of june and i think it is a BRILLIANT phone

  • Hi, Could someone tell me how much it costs to download tracks (once you buy the dongle and cable) from sites or shall I just get a 3G phone Thanks

  • Hi, I am thinking of sending the phone back and getting the new Sony Ericson, As not compatible with Vfone live and I cant download tracks. Can anyone help with the downloads. The camera is not all that great and no loud speaker.

  • Use a bluetooth dongle/usb cable (with USB driver from the samsung website) then just transfer mp3's /aac's / jpeg's / gif's etc...

  • Hey i've just bought the E720 and i LOVE it is such a good phone i can't praise it enough Well Done SAMSUNG. However i got a few problems and i was wondering if anyone could help me. the first thing is that how do you get mp3's on to the phone for the mp3 player and the second issue is can u get pictures of your computer and transfer them onto the E720. If anyone knows the answers to these questons i would REALLY apprieciate it if you could contact me through email. Thanx

  • Bought mine through an O2 shop. Hadn't read any reviews before buying - I just thought it looked great ! When I actually got it home and tried it, the sound quality was terrible. I then found this was a common complaint. The people you call basically complain that it sounds like you're talking through cotton wool. The 'S' sound in particular is muffled and this makes speech very hard to understand. Seriously unimpressed. If a phone can't carry voice properly, what is is good for ? I took the phone back and swapped it for a Motorola V635. Delighted !

  • Just bought the phone. I must say it�s an incredible piece of craftsmanship from Samsung. Great design, great features, excellent display and superb video. Regarding the sound issue that I�ve seen people complaining about here, I must say it seems I was lucky because it sounds even better than the D500 (with Voice Clarity ON). The sound is crisp and clear during the calls and I couldn�t get any distortion from the MP3 player even at the highest volume level. I�ve also had the Motorola RAZR, and THAT was a phone I can say it had sound problems. Anyway, with no cons other than lack of speakerphone, I can say this phone is a great deal and I totally recommend it.

  • Hi, Ive had my fone a couple of weeks now and i think its great. I have recently bought a bluetooth dongle to try and upload mp3 files but when i try and connect the Dial up networking (DUN) i keep getting an error that says i need the correct dial-up number for your Internet Service Provider (ISP). Does anyobody know what number i need to put in??? Im really stuck and would appreciate any help. Thanks

  • could any1 tell me how many mp3 songs this fone can hold. im gettin my samsung e720 on wednesday and i got a gr8 deal from o2, i got 500 free texts and 50mins and a free bluetooth headset 4 only �19 pounds a month xx thanx xx

  • this fone is incredible! what more can i say?

  • I'm posting again due to several people asking about the sound issue and whether it really is a problem. One person even implied people were making it up, as if we enjoy wasting time posting pointless rubbish! I've just received my replacement phone and it's the same as the first one. I still have no idea whether they're all the same, or whether there's good and bad batches, as both Samsung and O2 refuse to acknowledge the problem, even when presented with the evidence of numerous reviews / forum threads. On the plus side, I've had my phone for a week, and I have kind of got used to the rather weird call sound, and to be honest it's not been so bad that I dislike making calls. I read somewhere that this phone has the Samsung noise filtering technology, on all the time. This makes sense, as the sound during calls sounds like the voices are in a cardboard box, yet there's no background noise. I think they implemented the feature but it's not quite right, but they wanted to get the phone out for sales timing reasons. The slight edge of distortion (even at lowest volume) is inexcusable though; this is supposed to be a state-of-the-art phone! To summarise, I'm likely to keep the phone, but to anyone concerned, yes, the problem is genuine so make sure you have the option of an easy replacement or exchange. As for Samsung and O2 - mixed feelings - I can't help but love the phone overall (crazy isn't it?), and O2 is better than it used to be - but both should also hang their heads in shame for their blatant lying when discussing the problem. Tom

  • I've had the samsung e720 for about 3 weeks now and love it, the sound quality is excellent and the text features are all working perfectly for me. There are two space keys so if you're used to a nokia you can still use the 0 key or otherwise yu can use the # key. the only thing i'm not sure about is how to put music on using easy studio 2, i didn't get a cable or bluetooth dongle with the handset so if anyone knows could you pleasse post on here or email. thanx :)

  • i dont understand some people say there is nothing wrong with the sound quality but some say that its rubbish ? is it realy bad or is everyone exaggerating it ? email bk

  • i'm gettin this phone nxt wk and i think its so stylish and funky but im being put of by people saying the sound quality is rubbish is it really bad ? plz email me on ur comments

  • Yeah i need to know that to!!!!! Who knows how to get music off the computer on to the e720????

  • i love my new samsung only prob is how do i download mp3's ? pls help ! thanx Gems x

  • Message below was to Phil not Sam sorry

  • On the one hand I do love the phone, the video quality and sound quality is quite good, but I'm pretty sure there's better. The flash does nothing to help take pictures and just wastes the battery and the menu takes getting used to when you've had the A800 for 2 years. �30 a month, don't think it was worth it... TO SAM I had the same problem as you with video capture, that's because in the settings its set to be as long as a video that can be sent. When you have changed the camera to video, go to options, scroll down to settings and the first option is RECORDING MODE, select it with the centre button and change it to Normal instead of limit for message :) Does anyone know how to get mp3's without bluetooth or the easystudio thingy? Amy x

  • I have now had me e720 for 3 weeks and i love it to bits. i got a bluetooth dongle 2 download songs and i cant stop playing it. the battery has lasted me bout 3-4 days wiv lots of use. i have no problem wiv the sound quality - only wen its set on the loudest and the person on the other end is shouting anyway. my fone is set 2 t9 so i dont undersatnd y they all arent. i agree that the space key is in the wrong place but get used 2 it... its a small price 2 pay 4 such a gr8 gadget. i had the motoV3 and loved that 2 but it had no video so needed a different 1. after firstly goin 4 design - i am a bird - i looked at wot it does and believe me i certainly chose the best fone wiv this. dont hesitate in getting it if u like the look of it as well as the gadgets. at the end of the day everybody is looking 4 different things so there will never b a fone that suits every single person out there. happy playing..... lme

  • i forgot to ask does it have a hands free

  • hi i got that phone just 1 day ago.does n e 1 can tell me how will i copy all my sim contacts to phone memory

  • Hey All, I am getting this phone next nonth when it is released but I do need to know is the sound quality really that bad? I love the style and all the jazz of it, but just need to know about the sound quality? Plz let me know many thanks Mel

  • Ivoc, The E720 is fantastic - it's got a great design and the software interface is great. I can't recommend this phone enough. Use the GSMArena specs and the Samsungmobile.com site to base your decision.

  • I will buy this phone in a couple of weeks and can anyone please tell me how god this phone realy is.Thanx

  • Kiran, Samsung do not provide data cables with the handsets. You need to purchase a data cable and download EasyStudio from Or you can purchase a bluetooth dongle and communicate via wireless signals.

  • how can you send videos via bluetooth to other phones? mine records in mp4 which is the best quality, but most other phones record with 3gp, i canny seem to send them and them workin on there fones, it works on mine thou :) but not mp4 on theres? ne1 know??

  • the video quality on this phone is fantastic, you have to see it yourself - it also picks up the sound really well. Only minor drawbacks are the small screen and no memory expansion

  • i got my e720 (yeeeeeeees) and despite reviews about them having problems mine is fine. the phone is great but i do not no how to put mp3s on to it could any body please help me with this, email me at [email protected] thanks, husky

  • i just bought the samsung e720 and it's an ok phone. But it doesnt allow me to sms. The other problem i have is that the headset that i recived with the phone has ood length wires so one speaker is way lower than the other. Is this just the desgin or is there acutly something wrong with it. And how are you ment put MP3's on the phone if you dont have any wires to connect to the computer or a disk to download the information. Can someone please help me thanxs

  • Its a very good and user friendly mobile phone whis easy to use and attractive.There should be more colours in this range

  • I just got a free E720 from O2. I think it is great! However, there are a few downsides: * T9 (predictive text) cannot be set to default * Front display picture hides itself after a few seconds - on the adverts it looks like it stays on all the time! * It is built for left handed people! - the space key is the # key which is too close to the thumb and you end up having to text with 2 hands! * The WAP is slower than my old Nokia 3200! - but it does look very cool! * The phone doesn't come with a data cable - however, I'm going to get a dongle! * You can't review a picture in full screen Just for the record, my sound is perfect! Maybe mine is from a good batch - My serial number starts R1UY All in all a fantastic phone - especially when it was free!

  • it was a nice phone,with the external music control and all.I like it very much and like to buy it but a pity it lack of memory card.... =(

  • I have just ordered this phone as my upgrade. The girl on the phone recommended it as a lot of her colleagues had it. I'm hoping it is ok as a few of you have said it is not!! I hope that this is just typical internet chat, as the majority of people who post opinions only ever seem to moan about things!! Fingers crossed!!!

  • soul man, according to samsung, they made it disappear as a measure to save the power of the handset. u'll nvr have the pic on the external screen forever!

  • how can i let my 2nd display always turned on? i mean a picture.. coz it always desapears in a few sec.. GRATZ

  • The ongoing sound on call saga, part 3. Having been in touch with Orange over the last three weeks, their technical department told me the handset was "faulty". The handset was replaced the next day. Imagine my excitement as i made the first call, and subsequent disappointment as i found the sound to be no better than the first! To be fair, this handset is slightly better than the first, but not by much. For a state of the art tri band phone i would still call the sound quality poor. My five year old Nokia is just as good. My wife has a new Samsung E330, and it has Samsung's "Voice Clarity" feature. The on call sound with that phone is excellent!, and it has a good built in speaker phone too! Not only that, but the E330 plays back voice memos through the speaker phone, you have to hold the E720 to your ear!! There are other features the E330 has too, but are not on the E720. What's going on?, the 720 is supposed to be a much higher specification phone! TO Phil Yes, it looks like you need to change your settings. The phone comes out of the box set to record the maximum you can send via MMS messaging, hence the message you described. This is how to change it. Get the phone into video mode (so it's ready to shoot video) then press the left soft key. This takes you to Options. Select Settings. You should then see a set of settings you can adjust. The first one is called ' Recording Mode'. On your phone it will most likely say "Limit for message" at the moment. Simply change this to "Normal" using the left or right side of the 4 way rocker key. You will also notice that you can change quality settings in there too. When done select "Save" using the left soft key again. Note that if you go back to "Limit for message" again, it resets the quality setting back to "Economy", most annoying! I can't find a way round this yet. Hope this helps.

  • i forgot 1 thing i had the samsung x600 before my e700 and that was bad it switched itself of and had poor sound qulity. im on contract so hopfully if there is any faults they will get fixed

  • im getting my samsung e720 tommorow it is in the post . i have read quite a few reviews and some people say that the sound quality is poor i hope mine isnt.i chose the phone because i had the e700 and had no problems. i will keep you informed if my sounde is ok tomorow (9 june)

  • To Steph, Great phone aside from one rather important issue; poor sound during calls! I'm waiting for a replacement but there seem to be a lot of faulty ones out there, maybe they're all like it in fact, as I've yet to see anyone saying that they got a second one and it was OK. Although, some people seem to think the sound is fine which implies there could be faulty batches. I love the design so I hope my next one is OK. Samsung's advert for the phone says "It would be a shame if you only used it for talking" - they got that part right! For more info just read the threads, and visit this site also: Even the official review there mentions the problem! Tom ps both O2 and Samsung are flatly denying there's any problem at all, even though I showed them all the user comments. That's customer care, 2005-style. :-(

  • i have the previous version of this phone, the samsung e715, its prettu much the same thing, but it doesnt have mp3 player, bluetooth or video capture... reading the problems that the phone has had playing mp3's really dissapoints me... specially comming from a $500 phone... makes me think twice about buying it... please let me know if the sound problems can be corrected... Eric

  • Can ne1 tell me how 2 get songs on2 my phone cos I'm havin sum trouble ... apart fom that i think it is a very good fone and i'd recommend it to every1 oh and the sound isn't that bad ... is it ?

  • continue from post below.. its a shame about the sound quality as its an awsome looking phone!

  • definately I had the same sound problem like the person lower down in this thread, with the e720 had lousy sound quality both ways, I got 2 from Orange both phones were bad, and then I sent them each back and got one from O2 and that was also bad sound quality, leave them alone. Anyone who says they are clear sound has never owned a clear sounding phone Believe man!!

  • i love dis fone !!!!! its sooooooo gud does ne1 here hv it pls tell me cos i wanna kno how it it works! is it as gud as it looks?

  • The phone is great, no complaints........except one thing! This phone is supposed to record for 60 mins yeah? well I cant get longer than 13-17 seconds, then it stops and says "message file size limit" any ideas how I can sort this out? Do I need to change settings or something? Any help much appreciated. Please E-mail me

  • its a great phone but how do you make your wallpapers fit to your screan, without white spaces at the sides??? in the beginnen i had an option to let the picture adjust but now i dont find it anymore if you know how to do that you can mail me gr [email protected]

  • Hey man, i live in Sweden, that's in Northern Europe. Thanks

  • TO alex, im very interested in the samsung e720. I have had a nokia 2100 as my first phone and for the past 3 years. A few questions, firstly does the phone have good sound and bluetooth quality? How long does the video record for? How many pictures can you take? Have you have any problems with the phone? Hope to hear back from you or anyone who knows any of these questions....thanks, stef

  • hi, i just bought this model..it seems quite good, except that i'm having trouble finding the games on it..also..i don't get how i'm supposed to download rintones on it..any suggestions? apart from that it's a really wicked phone, and i'd recommend it.

  • To sal: Where do you live? If you tell me what country you live in I can search for the configurator/OTA tool of Samsung.

  • i have the e720 for a week an i think that it's a great phone, the battery life it's short but i f u want it u got 2 get use 2 it.I had 3 e700 and one e710 and i think that the e720 is the worlds most elegant phone and the display is amazing and it has a lot of multimedia features.To transfer stuff or to download it to your computer u got 2 get the bluetooth because it works perfectly.The 90 mb is not enougth if u have a phone with a mp3 player but compared 2 other phones it will satisfy you're apetite for tracks,videos and photoes. if u want more details contact me on my email adress(im a samsung fan and i had a lot of samsung phones and i know a lot about samsung phones)

  • I got this E720, great phone. Not perfect sound with them mp3-ringtones but then again this is pretty new. Good quality on the video and camera if the light is good. I was now wondering what kind of settings you should be downloading to get this one to work with mms and gprs, i have searched for settings for E720 but haven't found it anywhere, can someone plz tell me what settings that work with this one if you have gotten it to function. Thanks

  • hey everyone, i was really curious, does the E720 have suffer from the same feature that doesn't let it vibrate and play a ringtone at the same time? thanks sam-b,

  • I'm the latest person to get an E720 with a sound quality problem on calls. Most beautiful phone I've ever seen, but unfortunately flawed. Waiting for replacement from O2 and hoping that I get one that's OK (assuming they're not all the same). I've sent a long e-mail to Samsung UK customer services, asking why their own call centre, and O2, are seemingly unaware of the problem, despite it being all over the internet on forums and even official website reviews. Crazy. Also very inconvenient as I always have to collect the phone from the courier's office, as working at time of delivery. Sound problems during calls as described by others, muffled / unclear yet sometimes too loud, with an edge of distortion. It's two way, ie outgoing and incoming voice.

  • I just got an E720 on Saturday 4th June and I think it is a cool phone. I have stuck with Nokia in the past but decided to try something different. The only thing I dislike about this phone so far is the wallpaper settings. I would like to be able to have no wallpaper at all but there is not an option for this!

  • after weighing up all options of a new phone there is no comparison to that of the E720 based on the original E700 how can it not be successful. 1 mega-pixel camera, MP3 player, bluetooth nd video cature/playback the E720 is the ultimate in style and compact for a phone of this size and can only be beaten by the release of latest 3G mobile. im proud to own one!

  • wow.. so it really costs 370 euros ?!?!? i dunno ... ireally like it and its really cool and all that but 370 euros?1? plus I live in Malta soo thats anther 40 euros on the top cos the maltese just love add on money wen they see a money spinner...

  • i heard this is a very nice phone an upgrade to the e715 but the e700 aint in the reviews becoz that was a great phone very good screen i'll be proud to have a e720 i might get the E720 it's ideal small compact great screen

  • i bought this phone and am rather happy with it. not only does it have bluetooth but also MP3 player and flash camera. i also bought the data link cable (USB) as i read that i need the cable to download files eg. MP3s and pics to my phone. but my prob is that i cant. download the PIM and file manager that came in the CD with the cable and the USB driver. but nothin works. tried restarting the comp too could get conenction but file manager and the melody to phone and image to phone function are in grey. any idea how i can download MP3 to my phone?

  • Hello louie payton I have never read that the E720 had a poor battery life... and i have read hours before deciding to buy one. I can't tell you how long my E720 lasts since it it BRAND new and has Never been charged. If you want buy a phone brand new for cheaper than in a store you can contact me ditb1 at hotmail.com
