Organic LED or OLED technology has been around for a while. It has amazing contrast compared to traditional LED. If you wish to know more, do a search to read more about it.
I have an iPhone 4 now, but I did have this phone for 2 years and although it had it's glitches, it was one of the best phones I've owned. The touch screen would sometimes freeze, it wouldn't send a message, and the keyboard would repeat a letter if you only press it once. (This only happened every once in a while though) I will admit though, it was a good phone and the overall slim, slide grip and style of the phone is what I miss most about it.
Yes, you can. It works just like the Samsung Eternity. If you go into messaging and don't open the slider, turn the phone in landscape mode, you will see a QWERTY keyboard on screen.
I'm getting this phone too!! I'm really excited. On the AT&T website it says that it has Instant Messaging (IM) AOL, Windows Live and Yahoo! Messenger...but I don't know if it has it's own like Blackberry has the Bb messenger...it would be awesome if it did though!
keep in mind guys its not just a regular OLED. it is in fact an AMOLED (active matrix organic light emitting diode) the main advantage of the active matrix over traditional oled is less power-usage; which in some cases can mean a better picture because the mfg. will up the quality without fear of extra battery drain(you will typically see a better black/white level on amoled's than traditional oled's, and usually more vibrant colors as well)
Just ordered this phone. Radio Shack website is offering up to 2 of these for free with new contract and no sign up fees until June 29th. Sweet phone from all the reviews I've seen. Can't wait until it arrives.
i noticed while messing with my friend's Impression that you can toggle which widgets you want in the TouchWiz sidebar (not all available are shown by default)... i was wondering if you were to download a game or app or whatever if it's possible to add those to the sidebar.
Didn't get extended warranty so it's now a $400 coaster for my iced tea now. AT&T store said sorry, nothing we can do. Loved it for the first 5 months, but: You don't always get what you pay for, this is junk!
I just got my Impression last night. When I flip the keyboard out to message, the keyboard section and screen section are a bit wobbly where they are connected. Not much.... But, there is a slight bit of play between the two. Any of your guys' phones do this??
I'm looking for a phone to upgrade from my Blackberry Curve. I have it narrowed down to 3 phones, the Impression, Solstice and Mythic. Any ideas would do wonders! Thanks =]
This phone is pretty good. Returned Solstice, stayed off contract with my Blackberry until this went back on free upgrade. 2 months later, got one. Texting and messaging is great on this. Has virtual full key board and slide out keypad. Great pictures. Responsive touch screen. I use it pretty much all day, battery is a full day plus. Got better after decreasing backlight and brightness. Phone has to be rebooted every now and again, but its fast in doing so. No headphone, needs adapter. Its Good!
The AT&T Navigator services aren't free, $9.99/mon. The phone has a web browser. The phone doesn't have built-in WiFi. So you won't be able to use WiFi.
1) same them on a microSD card and use a card reader to copy onto your computer. 2) use Bluetooth to send pictures to your computer. 3) use USB to connect your phone and computer.
well i like the mythic because it has a 3.5mm heaphone jack for music, a camera with flash and battery lasts a little longer and the phone is lighter but the impression is good for texters because of the physical keyboard and the screen is a little brighter than the mythic, and you have to buy a adapter to listen to music. Both phone have the almost the same touch wiz software mythics is a little more advanced but they are both great phones its just the main difference is the keyboard
The Impression is better built and has better display, but it's more expensive and bigger. That's not to say that Xenon is bad phone. Far from it. We are publishing in-depth reviews of both phones this week. Check our web site for the reviews. Might give you some ideas for comparison.
my wife and i were talking about this master piece of samsung in 2024 .We were Were far apart for 2 years she was in Cuba and i was here and sent her this phone to comunícate.Today were are remembering.I remember i had the Eternity.
I miss this phone sooooooo much.. it was the best phone ive ever had.. it lasted me over a year.... and i cant remember how many times i dropped it.... i even dropped it ina bowl of soup and it still worked... and got it wet when i washed my car... my dog got a hold of it... my son would get it and throw it... and it never messed up. I wish they still offered this phone bc i would so get it again...
m getting this phone soon and im not sure if i want to get it or i don't. theres soo much mixed reviews about it. theres like people who are like "this phone is the worst phone ever", or "this phone is a piece" and then theres the people who are like "i fuckin love this phone!!" or "get this phone its sooo amazing!!". i mean i have been looking on so many reviews and its mixed reviews about it. Should i get it? i don't know
two questions. is the navigator free to use or to get/acsess it? and does the internet browser come with the phone and can you acsess it for free with wifi connection?
I had this phone as my first phone and I loved it!!! Great Keyboard. Responsive touch! I loved it!! But then I dropped it in the toilet and the touch stopped working :( Now i have a crappy flip phone. I cant wait until i get my upgrade!
Is there any way to continuously play videos? Like after each video it stops and i have to choose another one, is there anyway to make like a playlist for videos. Like on windows media player, it will just go to the next video in line, here it stops and makes me.
ok. but can i still watch videos like on youtube? and can i use the web browser without having to plug it into the computer and can i use the web browser anywhere? o and one more question. does cingular video come with the web browser or does it also cost money and what would you choose unlimited text or unlimited web browser? PLEASE ANSWER I REALLY WANT TO GAT THIS PHONE THANX.
hey I have a question, can you PLEASE answer me as soon as possible? Well I have the Samsung Impression and i LOVE IT, but there is one problem. I just can't figure out how to transfer the pictures from the phone to my computer:( can you please please help me?
@parksman2112 It's beyond glitchy. Mine, personally, would turn itself off randomly and would sometimes not notify I had a message. When that happened, if I checked my inbox by chance, I couldn't reply to the message anyway until I totally restarted the phone. The keys are sticky and sometimes will type maaany of the same letter you touched once. It's beyond frustrating.
no it doesnt freeze at all. i just got mine a lil while ago and i only found one wrong thing with it, its too good!!!!! trust me just get it, u wont regret it
Oh yeah, one other thing.......Media package on this is much cheaper in the long run compared to smart phones. This does everything my blackberry did and has more extras that I consider useful and fun. Also, others have mentioned, the texting folder full thing is fairly stupid. still trying to figure out how to make the folder back up on my mem card instead of device. Havnt been able to get it though. If you got it working, please let me know. Would be useful. Not really a problem, just dumb.
I really enjoy my Impression, my sisters does freeze after about 100 messages though which, can be once or more a day. Since I never really do more than 50 texts a day, I haven't had the problem. Every phone has it's faults and I won't deny that, but for my first full keyboard phone, I was impressed!
I'm so glad this video is still here.
What a throwback, I remember this was my first touchscreen phone!
Same
The built-in aGPS doesn't cost anything to use. But if you want to use AT&T Navigator with the GPS, it has a monthly fee ($9.99/mon).
Organic LED or OLED technology has been around for a while. It has amazing contrast compared to traditional LED. If you wish to know more, do a search to read more about it.
aún conservas este teléfono?
☄️🇬🇹
The default password is usually the last 4 digits of your phone number. But if you have changed it then those won't work.
Idk how I ended up here, but this is, to this day, my all time favorite phone.
@kingpapa76 Yes, you can with the virtual keyboard.
I have an iPhone 4 now, but I did have this phone for 2 years and although it had it's glitches, it was one of the best phones I've owned. The touch screen would sometimes freeze, it wouldn't send a message, and the keyboard would repeat a letter if you only press it once. (This only happened every once in a while though) I will admit though, it was a good phone and the overall slim, slide grip and style of the phone is what I miss most about it.
Still rocking that IPhone 4 these days? 😂
🤣🤣🤣 2024
Yes, you can. It works just like the Samsung Eternity. If you go into messaging and don't open the slider, turn the phone in landscape mode, you will see a QWERTY keyboard on screen.
Yes you can put it on silent, vibrate and loud.
I'm getting this phone too!! I'm really excited. On the AT&T website it says that it has Instant Messaging (IM)
AOL, Windows Live and Yahoo! Messenger...but I don't know if it has it's own like Blackberry has the Bb messenger...it would be awesome if it did though!

No, no wi-fi means no connect through WiFi, but you can still connect to the Internet via AT&T's 3G data network.
if the phone's camera was at least 5 mega pixels with a flash, this phone would be PERFECT.
Just ordered this phone. Radio Shack website is offering up to 2 of these for free with new contract and no sign up fees until June 29th. Sweet phone from all the reviews I've seen. Can't wait until it arrives.
Let us know how you like it when it arrives!
We have in-depth reviews of both phones. Head over to MobileTechReview web site to read them. Hope they will help you decide.
Check under the settings.
It doesn't support Windows Mobile OS, It has a full HTML browser that runs on Samsung's OS.
i noticed while messing with my friend's Impression that you can toggle which widgets you want in the TouchWiz sidebar (not all available are shown by default)... i was wondering if you were to download a game or app or whatever if it's possible to add those to the sidebar.
got this phone for my bday. love it. was gonna get xenon, but this one is SO much better! highly reccomended.
can i get this now? I am planning to buy it.
Didn't get extended warranty so it's now a $400 coaster for my iced tea now. AT&T store said sorry, nothing we can do. Loved it for the first 5 months, but:

No other colors are available at the moment.

Got better after decreasing backlight and brightness. Phone has to be rebooted every now and again, but its fast in doing so. No headphone, needs adapter. Its Good!
I got an Impression as a replacement for a lost Zenon, and I prefer this one by far.
can i get this now? I am planning to buy it.

Yes, it does.
yes, it's like embedded in the side. it's pretty hard to press unless if you have longer fingernails or smaller fingers.
Yes, we tested it. You can!

We have detailed reviews of both phones. Read the reviews on mobiletechreview web site and see if they will help you decide. Good luck!

Yes.
got this phone today to replace my blackberry pearl. so far i love it!
Does anyone know if the extra 50 for the impression is worth it over the xenon! please reply! :]
Who's still watching in 2021!!! :)
I am!
I just got it and even though it is a very nice phone, it is heavy and I am thinking of returning it just because it is a pain to carry in my pocket.
I put an mp3 file for the ringtone. It works fine, but for the first two seconds, it starts off quiet. Why do you think that is?
THANK YOU, SOMEONE UNDERSTANDS. it's a pretty good first phone.
I miss this phone sooooooo much.. it was the best phone ive ever had.. it lasted me over a year.... and i cant remember how many times i dropped it.... i even dropped it ina bowl of soup and it still worked... and got it wet when i washed my car... my dog got a hold of it... my son would get it and throw it... and it never messed up.

Should i get it? i don't know
@sunnysang I would like to add to this by asking if you can do it with music as well.
No flash.
So I've heard! I've also heard that it only happens if you use internet, and I won't be. Anything else bad with it??
Hey i waa watching this video on the samsung impression. I was wondering how do you put music on the phone?!?
Im getting this phone and it seems great! i cant wait!!
i have this phone and iv droped it many times and iv had it almoste a year and it still works fine i recamond it
can i get this now? I am planning to buy it.
why didn't they ever make a samsung impression 2 fixing the bugs?
wait it DOES have a headphone jack??? I looked at another review and it said it didnt. Which is it??
yea i have the same question.. can you switch to conversational style texting?
@taylie1217 does it freeze for you as much as everyone says? and is this better than, say the xenon? i personally like it better..
Megapixel-wise and the quality are the same.
which one should i get, the samsung impression, or the samsung flight?
@Reckorza really? what kind do you reccomment then? because i want one thats like thiss. but?
1:07 how do you edit the quick launch apps.. like removing and adding.. thanks
is the lack of a camera flash really that big a deal, cus i am gonna be using the camera a lot
two questions. is the navigator free to use or to get/acsess it? and does the internet browser come with the phone and can you acsess it for free with wifi connection?
Can you type on the touch screen? Like if you were going to text someone is it only the QWERTY keyboard or is there a on screen way to text also?
Which is better camera-wise? Impression or Eternity?
do think this will reach canada anytime soon. i would get in detroit but i like the company that im with and the dont have sim cards (N)
I had this phone as my first phone and I loved it!!! Great Keyboard. Responsive touch! I loved it!! But then I dropped it in the toilet and the touch stopped working :( Now i have a crappy flip phone. I cant wait until i get my upgrade!
Do you got any games or rare game on the phone?
I'm gunna get this phone but how much is it without the contract just the phone alone
does this phone really freeze a lot? some reviews say it does, but it seems good....
Okay could you text with out the damn keyboard? cause thats all i wanna know
i read that there are four ways of texting. can i see a video of that?
like everyone i am struggling on this phone or the xenon.
Is there any way to continuously play videos? Like after each video it stops and i have to choose another one, is there anyway to make like a playlist for videos. Like on windows media player, it will just go to the next video in line, here it stops and makes me.
Can you turn off the feature where when you touch the screen the phone vibrates??? my friend has that and ive used his phone and hate the vibration.
yes you could with out the key board. when your texting turn the phone side ways and then you get a touch screen key board
@randomactive20 basically every new smartphone or pda gets those features.. you just have to have internet on your phone... Which can be expensive
Hey let me know when you get it because i want to buy it but am not really sure if is a good phone ok
how is da battery life on da impression? do u hav a video clip of impression receiving or sending pic msg?
Considering buying this phone. Any reason I shouldn't?
Can you type with a full key board on the touch screen or do you have to use the slide
which phone should i get:
impression or the samsung solstice??
i am a avid txtr.
I text a lot Like all the time. Which phone should I get the impression or the LG Vu plus?
You eagle-eyed people!! It's actually the ShEp's v3 and it does have Rhodium along with other few goodies. :-)
ok. but can i still watch videos like on youtube? and can i use the web browser without having to plug it into the computer and can i use the web browser anywhere? o and one more question. does cingular video come with the web browser or does it also cost money and what would you choose unlimited text or unlimited web browser? PLEASE ANSWER I REALLY WANT TO GAT THIS PHONE THANX.
What is the best at&t touchscreen phone? With a keyboard im not really good without a keyboard.
hey I have a question, can you PLEASE answer me as soon as possible? Well I have the Samsung Impression and i LOVE IT, but there is one problem. I just can't figure out how to transfer the pictures from the phone to my computer:( can you please please help me?

samsung impression or the env touch?
QUESTION FOR THOSE WHO HAVE IT: Is it too big to fit it in your pocket easily or without it making a huge lump?
It fits well
how much would unlimited data and texting but with the least amount of available minutes (i text more than talk) cost per month?
have you ever had a time when u restart and it takes long to send again or will it work right away? and does this phone freeze a lot?
thanks
I really enjoy my Impression, my sisters does freeze after about 100 messages though which, can be once or more a day. Since I never really do more than 50 texts a day, I haven't had the problem. Every phone has it's faults and I won't deny that, but for my first full keyboard phone, I was impressed!
how do you change the color of the media player mine is pink and i dont want it to be
Yeah, it has a virtual qwerty and the numeral pad option.
does this phone have a flash player? can i watch youtube on it?
whats the difference between a samsung impression and a samsung a877
