Do you HAVE TO use the swype to text?

[cathrinah05]

[JesseIsB0SS]

awesome vids man

[XBloodyXRainBowX]

for the texting can you have the phone sideways and text? like with your fingers or anything?

[CellPhoneTrek]

@XBloodyXRainBowX yes

[XBloodyXRainBowX]

@CellPhoneTrek thanks helped a lot

[ItsFrikenAlyssia]

@CellPhoneTrek that why isnt it shown in the video?

[shory686]

do you have to use the metal piece for everything?

[benemalio]

@shory686 *stylus

[CellPhoneTrek]

@shory686 no

[TheBigpanther68]

do you always have to use the stylist? or can u use ur fingers to select things?

[nba360elite]

Looks to hard to txt on.The droid would prob be better and a lot easyier

[cinloykko]

the swype feature is awesome on this phone but i still prefer having the option of a physical keyboard

[isaacwilliams00]

Does the Samsung Omnia 2 18000 have swype?

[PsychoCPU]

Just ordered one of these to replace my Samsung i760. It had the most features and best reviews out of the other phones I was vetting (palm pre plus, htc ozone 2, ect). You can use your fingers to type on the virtual keyboard just fine, and the cube interface is on this model as well. As for battery life the cnet review said that it had incredible battery life thanks to the screen, as long as you don't use it 24/7. Anyway even if it was flawed I enjoyed Tommy's review, it had character :D

[JingerSK]

Wait, so can you ONLY do the "swype" feature, or can you do regular texting? Because swype looks like a pain in the ass to use.

[FragChaser]

Why not shoot the video from over the shoulder. so you can use the phone like its suppoesed to be used. That video was painful to watch.

[619puppet619]

I understand the way that it texted, althiugh I was interested, can you just use your fingers to text like any phone or you have to use the stick to text? Also the brand "Samsung" has a short battary life well for diffrent services I never had Verizon before; will the battary last longer then most of it's brand phones or the battary life is still short?...

[IXxBossxXI]

the only thing i like about the phone is the swype texting

[YetAnthony]

The phone doesn't seem like it can text mesage fast enough compared to the iPhone.

Sent from my iPhone =)

[phoneboothLC]

"i typed and h, im special." lmao

[nat12boyur]

I want this phone just b/c of the swype technology! THAT IS SO FREAKING COOL!!

[liquidcelica]

I suggest cellphonetrek reviews using a monitor camera setup. Use the camera for an overhead shot so that the reviewer can have the phone flat on the table and facing him but flat on the table. the monitor should display the phone so that he can see what's going on because the angle might not be ideal. By doing so, he won't run into trouble with writing backwards, finding the menu, or basically using the phone upside down.

[monkeylover098]

I love this phone sooooo much and its only $80 on Verison Wireless, im suprised!!!!!!!!!

[gmr41693]

how come it looks different from the others that i saw, like the menu at the bottom is like a cube and this is like an oval

[CellPhoneTrek]

@gmr41693 The phone you are referring to is the international version of the phone no the US version which is what we reviewed

[jonathan8787blake]

@CellPhoneTrek no the one with the cube is the first one this is the samsung omnia 2

[Whitefrost11]

WONDERFUL REVIEW!

[aznxinva5ian]

windows mobile looks ugly... Android looks so much better =D

and you can get swype on an android also

[xxbwb24xx]

i really wanted this phone but all these txting features failed they arent accurate at all thank you for this review so i did not waste my money : ]

[xXKrazyLepreconXx]

@xxbwb24xx I'm pretty sure they are more accurate then he made it look, he was doing it backwards, its gonna mess up like that.
