+ REVIEWS:
Lordpercy reviews the Samsung SGH-E900, they write:
“The TFT LCD screen displays all images perfectly, also allowing video playback and recording on the device. The 262k colour screen also means that all 2 megapixel images will be displayed in fantastic quality, and can be transferred between devices through the now standard Bluetooth. The E900 is a Tri band GMS 900 / 1800 / 1900 phone so it should be good for holiday travel plus it has data support with Edge capability.”

Infosync reviews the Samsung SGH-E900, they rated the phone 67% and write:
“What’s positive: Attractive design, very lightweight. Screen is high quality. Stereo Bluetooth headphone support. Lots of internal memory. What’s negative: Touch-sensitive buttons don’t work consistently. Slide should be smoother. Call quality is just average. Conclusion: The Samsung SGH-E900 is an attractive slider with a clean look, a colorful, high-resolution screen and a robust music player, including Bluetooth stereo headphone support and a full 80MB of internal storage. Unfortunately, the fingerprint-prone phone suffers from so-so call quality, and the tough-sensitive music controls gave us headaches.”

CNET Asia reviews the Samsung SGH-E900, they rated the phone 7.9/10 and write:
“Audio quality on calls was good–we heard people clearly. The speakerphone is loud enough to use for handsfree in low-level noise environments but isn’t audible in very loud areas. We were disappointed by the audio quality on the MP3 player though–it was loud but lacked bass and sounded tinny. The camera took pleasing photographs if you could hold it perfectly still, otherwise there was a noticeable blur around certain areas due to the shutter lag… The good: Expandable memory slot; mechanical navigation button; Bluetooth and infrared connectivity; speakerphone. The bad: Non-customizable message tones; limited amount of themes; clunky slide mechanism.”

Pocket Lint reviews the Samsung SGH-E900, they rated the phone 8/10 and write:
“As for a style icon, like the Chocolate phone, the SGH-E900 does a good job, the touch sensitive screens passed the wow factor down the pub, while the large screen meant seeing anything you’re doing also got the thumbs up. However where the Samsung E900 wins out is its feature set: 2 megapixels compared to 1.3, in-built loud speaker and like the D600 a TV out connection to share photos and video with others.”

Trustedreviews reviews the Samsung SGH-E900, they rated the phone 7/10 and write:
“You can transfer files to and from a PC using the provided Samsung PC Studio software which has facilities for PIM synchronising, image management, sound editing, movie editing MMS and SMS management among its many capabilities…I rather like the way the menu system works in this handset. When you choose the Options soft-menu you scroll through choices with the navigation button using its right side to see submenu options. It is a simple but effective and fast way of getting through a large and complex set of choices.”

Photokina reviews the Samsung SGH-E900, they write:
“With measurements of 9.3 x 4.5 x 1.7 cm, and weighing only 93 grams including battery and sim card, the Samsung SGH-E900 is a thin, light telephone. It fits snugly into your pocket and is easy to take along with you. I used the SGH-E900 for three days during the trial without having to recharge it once. This entailed normal use, without excessive amounts of phoning. I activated various functions on the Samsung E900 regularly. The Samsung SGH-E900 lets you know when the battery is almost empty with an acoustic signal and if the battery becomes too weak, it switches off automatically. Recharging the Samsung E900 is pretty quick; after an hour the battery is fully charged and the telephone is ready to go again.”
