Samsung F700 Vs Apple iPhone
When it was launched, it was termed the iPhone Killer, and after a small comparison with the iPhone - the end results were as follows. The Samsung’s F700 had more megapixels, a little bit more format support, an actual keyboard, and 3G connectivity, the iPhone has it beat on screen size/resolution, HTML Email, storage, widgets, google maps, and push.
But some may argue that it is much better, especially those who are used to the older Samsung phone models. What you will not find on the older models that makes the F700 so special is the large full control touch screen. Whilst the Samsung G600 or G800 will need a navigation key or a joystick to scroll through your phone’s menu, the F700 will only require a light tap on the screen. email. Plus, of course, the whole built-in iPod thing.
Design and Usablity
Another unique and exciting feature of the F700 is the full-sized QWERTY keyboard that slides out on the side for easier text and email composition. There is also an on-screen QWERTY keyboard, but as the touch screen phone is a new technology, Samsung thought first-timers would like to be eased in to it and provided an alternative. Like all QWERTY keyboards, you should type in text messages and emails with both hands on the Samsung F700. This should be easy to master, as it is exactly like typing on your computer keyboard, and faster than texting on a regular mobile keypad. Fortunately, it doesn’t look plastic, as the finish is ultra sleek and polished, so much so that the phone may even seem slippery.
Performance
F700 excels with crystal clear audio and consistently good reception. Likewise the battery performance is good, lasting over two days with fairly heavy usage. This will vary depending on the use of 3G and HSDPA, but you shouldn’t find yourself cursing the fact you’ve left your charger at home too often. there’s also a 3-megapixel camera with autofocus- but, here’s also no flash, but the LED photo light does improve low-light shots.

2. Slide-out Qwerty keyboard
