I have this phone and I do not pay for a data package. The phone has wifi so i use that for internet. My phone was bought off ebay and activated via automated prompts when calling in. Hope this clears confusion.
hey i have verizon and am thinking about buying the samsung SCH-i760. i was wondering if i needed to pay a monthly internet charge like on a blackberry?
No, because it is a verizon phone it can't be using with Cingular because they use CDMA and Cingular uses GSM. The verizon phone doesn't have a sim card slot.
.25 mm jack, standard cell phone port. If you want to use normal headphones, you'll need to get an adaptor from radioshack or someplace similar. That'd only be about $5 probably, but it is a bit bulky
But it depends on how big the icons on the screen are. If they are very small, you may need a stylus to accurately press them, especially if you have large fingers.
ok, i went to the verizon store to buy this phone. one guy said its very old and ur lucky to find it... and another guy in a diff store sed iit doesnt come out until like may. wtf, these guys dont no wut there talking about... i can buy it online easy! overall... is this a good phone?
Verizon is not selling this model anymore. A major software problem apparently. After my froze up, Verizon rep told me to bring it in for an exchange to another smartphone
best windows mobile phone...hands down. i just switched to verizon from sprint and this has faster internet than any sprint phone ive had, and its faster than my sisters n95 on at&t and my moms iphone by far.
actually my uncle has the the samsung.. i compared it with xv6800 from verizon wireless.. in my opinion the xv6800 is more user friendly then the samsung.. samsung has few weird buttons.. and sometimes it makes it difficult to use. and it's preaty much the same speed except storage space on the phone is a little better i got 164.41 MB on it compared to samsungs 64 MB.. still a great phone .. both of them
Yeah, and I have a 2 gig card that costs all of about 10 bucks on new egg. memory is not a feature anymore, only a limitation if it can't handle enough.
I think the iPhones are well overpriced, and people are buying them now mostly as a status symbol and to look important, cool, rich, etc. You can buy a much cheaper phone that is better than the iPhone if you just take your time to shop around.
my mom had this phone absolutely hated it. The tuch screen sucks so many dropped calls. She got rid of it and bought the blackberry 8830 world edition.
Lmfao you sound fucking stupid usaully older people. I was going to have it but hated it. Pile of shit. Black berry is much better. This phones just shit. I myself have the env2 and thats a better messaging phone than this pile
lol you didnt have to be so forward, your comment is so immature its laughable. different people got different tastes, just because you and your mom hated it, dont mean everyone else will.
the blackberry does have wifi. She has the 8830 world edition which means it can be used with cdma networks and gsm networks. Does the i760 have that no. And my phone the env2 has a better heyboard than the i760. You only like the i760 because of the touch screen. BUt yet it costs more than the iphone and the iphone has better features and does more and so does the voyager and the dare. This phone is out dated.
the i760 is far from out dated it just got the wm6.1 update and the 3rd party apps you can have on it make it perform better than the iphone. The i760 can do what the iphone does and ton more. So think again when you say its crap and even consider that the iphone is better than it.
the iphone is better. the thouch screen doesnt scratch on the iphone unlike the i760. The iphones thin. Unlike the i760. the iphone can actually download ringtones mobily unlike the i760. The iphone displays websites without messing up the size of the website page. Unlike the i760. The i760 is a pile of junk unlike the iphone.
if you know how to take care of your phone your screen does not scratch. i dont care if the iphone is thinner i like having the slide out keyboard. i can make my own ringtones and put them on there so no need for downloading. you dont have to jailbreak the i760 to put any kind of 3rd pty program on it like the iphone. you dont have a bunch of icons to push around on a screen which would get boring. can change the iphone interface to look like anything you want it to. yes you can use summerboards
but once again you have to jailbreak it. most programs you can have on your pc now are able to be on wm phones unlike the iphone. we could argue all day but people have different taste but the fact is wm is much better than the iphone your just brainwashed by the eyecandy
Eye candy lmfao i had to use this phone for a while. It sucks the touch screen doesn't respond very well and the phone is ugly. And your saying using your finger to move from screen to screen is boring. Lmfao sure beats the hell outta using a stylist.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
lmfao i dont have the fucking iphone you tool i have the env2 and the i760 sucks. a fucking buiness phone with touch screen theres no point for the touch screen it has a keyboard and its fat as fuck so no the i760 is yesturday fag boy
Your the one tellign me i need to have a good excuse about the iphone. and i hate the i760 bcuse its so thick. And does it cound like i give a fuck about what you think.
Very cool, thanks for the size comparison between the Q and this new phone. I was wondering how much larger or smaller it would be. Look forward to your post use review.
i just purchased it and you cant but you can get active sync for free that syncs contacts and calender. you need to buy the expert version for itunes, iphoto sync etc...
i like the samsung and lg products, i think they can make a video game console some day too, the problem is that south korea needs to deal with north koreas bull shit and im sure there taxes are high because of it.
come on know de iphone is not de shit.. just becuz it have dat awesome, great, touch screen, and a cool muisc library woow... There wayy better phone out dere way better dan i iphone
Most people are right handed & dial w/ the right hand. Samsung should have put the number dial pad on the bottom left of the phone for easy thumb-dialing. Seems like it'd be difficult to hold and dial w/ your right hand.
its nice how they slimmed it down compared to the i730 from like 4 years ago but i don't like the buttons on the front or the keyboard that much or micro sd.
I have been using this for about a week now and it take a little getting used to. There are so many keys on the side, it's difficult to handle without hitting something.
I'm so done with Verizon's phones. I was waiting for the xv6800 to come out...never did. This phone would be cool if it didn't look TERRIBLE. It looks like a cheap toy. Voyager looks cool...but not a smart phone.

First of all if you're going to hate on someone, do it with the least bit of grammar.
And second, don't say anything about the iPhone because like you said, you don't have one.
There are pros and cons to the iPhone, and there are pros and cons to the i760.
Different people have different tastes.
So please stop treating everyone like they should have the same tastes as you.
