Reviews of the Samsung SCH-U540 - silver (Verizon Wireless)

    CNET Review

    May 3, 2007

    The Good: The Samsung SCH-U540 has admirable music quality and a generous range of features including 3G support, Bluetooth, and a speakerphone. Call quality was decent too.

    The Bad: The Samsung SCH-U540 has a dull design with a flat keypad and an average display. Also, video and picture quality was unimpressive, and it lacks stereo Bluetooth.

    The Bottom Line: Though it has a couple of strong points, the Samsung SCH-U540's design and performance don't quite do its feature set justice.

    Review Summary: With a nice feature set and compatibility with V CAST services over EV-DO, the Samsung SCH-u540 makes a good buy for use with Verizon Wireless. See our hands on photos from CTIA inside.

    Review Summary: With V Cast for video, music and navigation, the Samsung SCH-U540 does just about everything. But does it do them well?
