Samsung SGH-T729 Cell Phone Reviews

I love this phone! It is easy to use and has a great display. I still haven't figured out how to get my mp3's to work on the phones music player. This phone is so new it is hard to find anyone that really knows how it works, but that will change soon. The qwerty keyboard is nice, even though the buttons are a little small for my big finger. The T9 text is a pain, but I never had a phone with it before so maybe I just need to get use to it. This phone is loaded with just about everything you could want in a phone. The battery doesn't really last as long as I think it should, I talked on the phone for a about an hour and was down to one battery bar Overall I think this is a great phone and would recommend it to someone looking for a good slider phone

Before I got the Blast, I was using a refurbished Blackberry Pearl and was really starting to mess up. Getting back into a normal cell phone was quite a downgrade, so I went with the Blast to stick with the keypad design, which I love. T-Mobile's got a dead spot at my parent's house which is a little unfortunate, but that's been my only disappointment with them. Great price for the plan, I don't talk much out of my circle or to people not on the T-Mobile network. All in all, I'm a very satisfied customer, especially with LetsTalk.com. :]

Great phone ! Very easy to use , great features, I like the size and the display is easy to see and read. Only down side is the battery life .it does not last as long as my old Samsung, but I really like the Samsung brand.

I have been using the Samsung Blast now for a little over a month and I have to say that I am very impress. Great QWERTY keyboard on the slider phone. The 1.3MP camera is great, pictures and forms large pictures. The battery life on this phone is not long at all you can see yourself within 18 to 24 hours having to charge this battery up even if you haven't been talking on it. But other than that, the phone is great and flashy. The slim design and loud speakers are great, and charge time for the phone couldn't be better. Samsung out did themselves with this one but besides the battery life, this is a great phone. But i can see myself upgrading soon. Gets boring after the first 2 weeks. If you have children, they will love and adore this phone.

I am really enjoying my Samsung Blast. The design is so awesome. It is so easy to text message my friends since the dials are like a computers keyboard. This is my third phone and it is my favorite phone that i will probably ever have.

I have had this phone for about a month now. If you like to text message this can have you sending and receiving messages like the wind. The qwerty type keypad spaces all your letters and functions over 20 keys instead of 15 using two letters per key. Also you can check and send emails using your text plan very useful if your frugal like myself. The sound quality is great but sometimes while using it I put my hand over the talk hole which is on the bottom right of the phone while your looking at the face of it so if you have big hands use your left one or finger s to hold it.Another cool feature is if you hate scrolling through your contacts to make calls the voice recognition feature hold down the star key and call send lookup or go to. They have a Tzones key on the top of this phone and I think that is really crummy but if you have the data plan its not also that feature leaves only one programmable key on the surface limiting customization options. The mp3 player volume could be a little better but I guess samsung is trying to keep me from losing my hearing for now. A big downside is this phone has very little memory so if you want to listen to mp3s or watch 3gp video get a memory card or two as the max size card the phone can handle is 2 gig. Plus its either use the memory card to transfer files to the phone or use a data cable and put a little media on the phone or buy ring tones for 3 dollars a pop. RnAll in all I would give this phone a 9 out of ten because the pros definitely outweigh the cons.

The Samsung SGH-T729 was really easy for me to get used to. The design looks kinda horrid. I really don't like it. The one thing I do like about it is that it is a very slim phone. But the battery life just sucks. I was texting for 15 minutes, then talked on the phone for no more than 8 minutes, then the battery went down to 1 and I started with 3.

More accessories should have been provided. To make it easy to dowload music from your computer to your phone. Some people don't have memory card slots on their computers.
