IT Reviews reviews the Samsung Ultra Smart F700V and writes;
“A great Web browsing feature is that the side-mounted volume rocker doubles as a zoom key so you can change the zoom level for different pages easily and fast. There is also a 3-megapixel main camera with flash and a front-facing second camera for video calling…Overall, if you are interested in a mobile with a touch-screen the SGH-F700 is an attractive option and the keyboard will be useful to those who like their mobile e-mail. ”

Trusted Reviews reviews the Samsung Ultra Smart F700V and writes;
“The second weapon in the F700V’s considerable armoury is its keyboard. It’s hard to believe given how slim this phone is, but stashed away below that lovely screen is a full, QWERTY keyboard. And even more impressive than this is the fact that it’s quite possibly the most practical small keyboard I’ve ever used. It’s better than my TyTN II’s keyboard by quite a considerable margin and the backlit, well-separated rectangular keys make it ridiculously easy to type at speed. ”

“While there’s no built-in GPS, Google Maps should get you close enough to your destination to ask for directions. Built-in HSDPA means speedy downloads and the camera is more than capable. The QWERTY keypad is a joy to use, but the touch-screen can prove a tad frustrating…Verdict: Its speedy connection makes downloading music easy and browsing the web fast. The touch-screen however, comes in a poor second to Apple’s iPhone. ”

MobileChoice reviews the Samsung Ultra Smart F700 and writes;
“The F700 sports a large touch-screen and slide-out QWERTY keypad. It may be on the chunky side, but it still looks and feels great – even if it is something of a poor man’s iPhone…With a talktime of 270 minutes and a standby time of 300 hours, the F700’s battery life is more middle distance than marathon. ”

RegHardware reviews the Samsung Ultra Smart F700 and writes;
“Overall, the touchscreen UI works well, finger-sweeps allowing you move about with ease. To activate a menu function a pretty deliberate second ‘push’ is required, making accidental activation of a function a rarity…The media player works well enough, though video isn’t quite as bright nor audio quite as punchy as it is on Samsung’s latest generation of audio players such as the YP-2P ”

CNET UK reviews the Samsung Ultra Smart F700 and writes;
“The audio quality during calls was loud and clear throughout, without any noticeable muffling or distortion, and the loudspeaker was equally good. Audio quality from the music player sounded fine, but the player itself is very simple and we would have liked easier-to-use controls and more options, such as an equaliser. ”

Pocket-Lint reviews the Samsung Ultra Smart F700 and writes;
“The good: HSDPA, touchscreen, 3 megapixel camera, QWERTY keyboard. The bad: Interface clunky, no Wi-Fi. We Say: On paper the Samsung F700 looks to be a great handset that could really challenge the iPhone in all the stakes. Close up and it’s good, but not great”

Infosync reviews the Samsung Ultra Smart F700 and writes;
“Samsung’s designers referred to this phone as the “Q-Bowl.” Q stood for QWERTY, and the bowl comes from the idea of touching the surface of a bowl of water with your fingertips. It’s a nice visual image, and we especially like the tranquil audio effects that accompany actions and gave feedback to our input. Very classy, and clearly very high quality. ”
