Verizon Samsung Sway SCH-U650 Music Slider Phone Review

[leeyah87]

How do you add words to the T9 dictionary for this phone? I've tried spelling the word out in ABC mode and then switching back to T9, but it doesn't work. This method used to work on my previous phone (2nd generation LG Chocolate), so I was wondering if anyone knows how to do it for the Samsung Sway?

[sleepyluiz13]

WHATS V CAST

[brittni629]

Does it come with that thing to plug in headphones?

[sabbathkeeper07]

yup

[STpunk]

yea

[timmacky5]

If I understand correctly, this "Music" phone has no headphone port, but requires a dongle? I hope you like the sound of music through a $0.10 speaker.

[notascrub2002]

is this phone good for texting and can it record videos?

[pretyrainbow]

it can record, u have to hold the camera button for like 2 secs, and thats the cam recorder.

[SKEPTICALGOFF]

im a big texter and i think this phone is great, also you can only record videos for 30 sec.

[wannabeangel83]

i have this phone...i absolutley love it...very simple...and has lots of cool things, hope i have it for a long time =)

[pretyrainbow]

i have this phone, it is really nice, but yah its not much for texting, but i've gotten used to it, it has all the looks and style.

[jsl796]

i just got this phone!!!!it is amazing!!!!!

[alphaman1101]

I left that theme in the dust. I got the slick black on mine. Looks much better.

[CalebTheGuitarist]

how do u put musoc on it>? i ahve one and i cant figure it out

[alphaman1101]

Ether sync via a cable or go get a miro SD card like i did at walmart for 10 bucks. I love this phone!

[PlEaSePhOcUs]

yea micro sd is prolly ur best way

[monkeycombat2]

um its easy caledbtheguitarist you have to plug it into the computer and make sure ur phone is on sync music in your phone settings and then go to ur pc and go to my computer double click ur cellphone and jus drag the music songs

p.s. you can only drag one by one.

[dpnk1]

i have this phone i luv it!!!!!!!!!!!

[sk8terrandy1]

can u text easy on it and do you get good battery life? out of it

[khsuperbad]

can you take videos on this phone?

[dayvid4]

yeah with a memory card the video is not restricted to 30 secs like most phones. You can record as long as you want.

[JoshDavis2395]

does it come in any other colors?

[quaiyim1]

noooooooooo

[ilisten2rock]

i got this phone. its good.

[Zebio15]

i might get this phone

[tujungite]

I just got one, it's cool. It's basically an upgrade on the razr. It's nice to be able to slide it open with one hand. The camera is an upgrade as well, 2 mgpix. with nightshot, the micro SD is cool for music/pic/video storage.  You can send pics/vids to a free website and direct your friends there. Texting is the tedious thing, but I don't text much so blah. The biggest thing for me is the size of it. Fans of the razr will dig it. It will go 4 days on a charge, maybe 5(off at night).

[xxAmixx144]

About the samsung sway, can you take off the beep noise when you press a key? Thankss :)

[Nayias01]

Yes

[heartbreakdanceX]

i just bought this phone. its my first one. i like it (:

[Shimmer1991]

You can still text with it though right??

[tedhead12]

yes, i have it and you can also put your recordinqs as your rinqtones.

[cooldude12345657]

is this a good phone hows the call quality? is the reception / signal good?

[immatacobeller]

Verizon has the greatest coverage when it comes to reception/signal.

[guitarsbroads]

its a great phone, but for texting its not the greatest, but for just a good phone its 100 percent solid

[superspartan11]

i have one and it is AWESOME!!!!!

[ash6196]

is there a usb plug on it?

[immatacobeller]

I don't think so. I think you have to put a converter in the charging jack like he was showing.

[BrianLBLB]

I originally wanted a Samsung Gravity but now I'm having second thoughts...

[ACDCFAN568]

this is my second phone ever and it is AWSOME!

[ACDCFAN568]

im not even a pre teen yet and this is my second phone and its AWSOME!

[Utentagen]

I just got one today, it's my first REAL cellphone, and not a crappy prepaid one.

[wannabeangel83]

i think i might get this!

[ProclomationXFilms]

hey wannabeangel83 i would check out the chocolate 3 its really nice but its 139.99 and the sway is 79.99 so yea hope this helped haha.

[BillHBert]

I have this phone but i got lots of dust under the screen is there anyway you know to clean it?

[jdsteele44]

how is battery life

[XtremeHackers]

the battery life is good...i brought this phone

[DeltaMindset]

w/o EV service, does that make texts slower?

[d09dd76]

texting is good. but sometimes, the words you type appear on the screen slowly. but its only once in a while. the phone receives/sends texts well. so no worries. (:

[XtremeHackers]

i brought tht one

[eruption66]

yeah i just got this phone and i had the first env for a while and anything would be better than the env at that point when it is just done the env would turn off whle you were texting and that gets real aggravating. im getting used to it but the only bad thing is that the battery runs out fast and you have to keep it pluged in over night

[johncenafamguyfan]

can someone please help me install vcast

[NEWYORKJETS52]

would you recomend this as a first phone (im 13)

[jordancurtiss]

yea im 13 i had one i have the lg dare know but yea this is goo d for kids

[neblixsaber]

I'm 13 I have te Glyde. :)

[MarissaaaBabeee]

i am 13 and i have this phone.

but its my second phone

but its a good first phone.

i would definatly reccommend it.

[KVFDbyrd252]

. pretty much all new verizon phones have v-cast now. they mostly just come with the phone....

[miniCruzer911]

technically it does not have VCAST on it, but you can get VCAST music from your computer

[ATibs23]

Can you save sounds as ringtones on this phone?

[ThatWasPrettyChill]

yes u can, its it a great money saver

[emporio8404]

how??

[jociethemagus]

does it actually have good quality though?

I just ordered mine today ^_^

[s0ziki11u]

I have this phone! This is a great phone if you are looking for a phone that is small, compatible, and uncomplicated. It fits in your pocket nice and i love the menu screen. All in all the battery isn't that great, but it is a great small phone.

[emporio8404]

i just got this phone today. i had the glyde and it sucked. battery was horrible. i guess i bought it to be cool and have a "cool"phone that slides and what not but i hated it. got the sway mainly bc i need somethin with a decent battery. and ur tellin me it isnt that great.... that might be a prob. the battery cant be THAT shitty though!!! is it??? ive had it for about 2 hours and i kinda love it.

[aBIGFOOTproduction]

i got this phone two days ago and im still on the one battery cell from the box...

[frizzie]

hows the battery life on this thing

[oopla20]

I have this phone and it is a great phone.

[smashbrosbrawler93]

ok i'm a 15 year old guy look for a good music roker phone that dosent cost too much. I'm trying ot decided between the samsung juke and the sway, how would you rate both phones and which one would prefer, or anyother phone?

[dejahbooboo]

absiloutly NOT a juke, i just got one and i hate it so much.

there really isnt much good about it. if you like a LOT of music, this definatly wouldnt be the phone for you. it doesnt have a removable memory and doesnt hold much as it is.

it doesnt have video, and the buttons are extremely small if you like to text. just an all around crappy phone.

i definatly reccomend the sway. (:

hope this helps.

[blueblob4]

JUKE?! NO! Buy the sway. The juke is hideous!

[AyaLuvsOreos]

Definitly the sway.

[smashbrosbrawler93]

ok i am a 15 year old guy that is finally getting a real real phone (none of that cheap track phone crap) i'm lookinng for a pretty decent phone mainly about music, and some pictures blah blah blah i'm trying to decid betwwen the smasung sway and the samsung juke. how would you rate both phones and which one would you recommend, or any other phone?

[dahgutone]

What Verizon phones have EVDO/3G? Does it improve signal quality?

[candybobee]

is there flash for the camera?

[fredrickl44]

no there is no flash on the sway

[KVFDbyrd252]

no shit sherlock. pretty much all new phones dont have a flash.

[RubberToe40]

this or the chocolate 3?

[razorblade48]

This or the LG Decoy?

[ilikecereal805]

sway. lg decoy is really only if your a big talker.samsung sway has it all!

[razorblade48]

k thanks!

[koreapwns]

is there a place for a cellphone keychain?

[LuvM3orHat3zM3]

No I have 1

[whodeyx84]

i'm thinking about getting a new phone. i really wannt this one but i'm a huge texter. he says its bad for texting is that true? and is it slow?

[LuvM3orHat3zM3]

Its not slow but I have 1 and it`s not made for txting so I wouldn`t recommend it.

[razorblade48]

can this phone play mp4"s?

[megen623]

some phones have like this thing where you can record stuff and set it as your ringtone, does this phone do that?

[LuvM3orHat3zM3]

I recorded a Taylor Swifts Love story vidoe and then set it as a screen saver and a ringtone

[Z5K]

this phone is chill

does it have a flash on the camera?

[LuvM3orHat3zM3]

No sry

[VenomEnergy]

if your a big texter this isnt the phone for you?? what kind of bull shit is that? these kinds of phones are the best for texting because you can use t9 a.k.a word text... i have a phone like this and i love the keyboard...

[saejiim]

just wondering...i heard this phone is pretty slow. like when you text, the words won't show up quickly, it would rather show up pretty slow? is that true? ): caz i really love the design of the phone and i want to get this..but if this phone's slow..then i dont wanna get it..): pleasseee help (:

[MarissaaaBabeee]

no. it has a deley sometimes. but its really good for texting. i have this phone and i sent like 100 texts a day. its a really good phoneee. i would recommend it.

[rtbaseball08]

[harriknight]

[MarissaaaBabeee]

[EdwardCullen4everrr]

[dancingtennisstar]

[dodobird116]

how's the batterylife?

[treyni33]

hows the music that it can play

[Sk8Deathwish25]

This phone is very simple yet is packed with features. Its not to expencive and it performs very well. one thing you missed is that the camera on it has 3 types of multishots. This is great for skateboarders (like me)! =),,,,This is a big bang for little buck.

[Slomy10]

i got this phone. its nice, the review is accurate and you can customize it with lots of different options.

[zsiera]

does it make that beep noise every time you press a button? or can you take the beep off?

[footballplaya2135]

you usually can for every phone

[themandudeishere]

I am thinkin bout gettin this but i wz wonderin how strong is the video and pics are and is the ringer/mp3 decent or not. Also is it pretty durable thanks
