Samsung U700 is a really nice 3.5G phone that supports 3.6 Mbps HSDPA and EDGE data transfers, works on GSM900/1800/1900 and 2.1 GHz UMTS networks and comes with 3.2 mpx camera, VGA camera for video calls, 2.2″ 262K color display, Bluetooth 2.0, mpeg4 video player, full HTML browsing and microSD memory card slot. All of this in a sleek 102.5 x 50 x 12.1 mm sized package.

The only thing that’s missing in Samsung U700 – is Wi-Fi connectivity. But if you opt for unlimited data plan at Cingular or T-Mobile, HSDPA data transfer rates make it really unnecessary.
