Review GSM phone Samsung SGH-E730

The main review with all the characteristics described>>>

This material comes as an addition to the Samsung E720 review since the phones differ only in design, key placement and some slightly improved functions. The phone is designed in the same style, but ribs having no practical use being only a decoration element are seen on the back. A silvery color will be the main one though devices of other color will be represented on the market. The keys are more projective and are pleasant to work with. In general the keypad is more comfortable than in the younger model though it had no problems either.

The camera integrated is the same one as in the Samsung D500, which means it has a 1.3 MP resolution. You can acquaint yourself with the samples of its work in the D500 review; there is no difference in quality.

Review 1.3 MP camera of Samsung D500>>>

The second internal difference is the presence of an integrated FM-radio. Up to 30 stations may be kept in memory and Pop up Alert is present along with some kind of an alarm clock playing from the radio. The quality of the radio is decent and, subjectively, the radio is better than in a low-end Samsung X140. Essentially, many will point out the difference from the previous model only in the presence of the radio.

A time period of 3 weeks will separate the launch of this model with the E720 release, the price will be 20-25 USD higher. That is a fee for the presence of the radio and a bit better camera. I'll remind that the video quality is higher in the E720 and one may consider it a determining factor when choosing a device. The model looks functionally saturated and interesting for its class. The absence of a memory card is a slight restriction but they'll appear in the next versions. The device is very interesting functionally being one of the most interesting models of the season.
