Samsung F700 review
Network and connections
Starting with the technical specifications, the Samsung F700 has been equipped with GSM Triband network support, which allows for very good reception in any condition. Furthermore, thanks to the Dual Mode mode, it also allows you to take advantage of UMTS transmission. Browsing the Internet is really easy and fast, with the integrated modem and the WAP browser, which make use of HSDPA data transfer to reach speeds equal to home ADSL. Bluetooth is also present for connecting with compatible devices, as well as the USB 2.0 cable for exchanging files. However, to complete the device's high quality, Wi-Fi support and the infrared port are missing.

On the front is the large 2.78 inch display, which displays 256,000 colors for sharp and bright images. The Touch Screen technology allows you to manage the device optimally, with simple and quick touches on the screen. The sliding side opening instead reveals a large extended QWERTY keyboard, which allows you to easily write any type of text, just like on a computer. The dimensions are excellent, 15.9 mm thick for a weight of 139 grams.
