I love how it can either be a landscape or portrait. I also love the QWERTY keyboard. It's great for those who just need the Samsung SCH-U740 for occasional use for calls and messages. I like how the Samsung SCH-U740 gives you a status on the phone screen. I didn't know until I tried it that the camera also offers color effects like black and white, sepia, etc. If you message a lot, the QWERTY keyboard is a little small, but it's great for a compact phone. I compared it to my former Motorola RAZR, and it's a little skinnier than that. If you use the phone a lot, then the battery does wear a bit more, but no big deal since you have a charger with it.

I mainly got the Samsung SCH-U740 for the size and QWERTY keyboard, not to mention changing the display from a normal to a landscape message type. The QWERTY keyboard is easy to use, although on a bit of a small size, it works for me since I don't message often. Even the speakerphone has great sound quality. I like how you can change the front display to digital rather than analog. Also, you can display the alarm clock, voicemail, or message on the screen, which is very helpful especially with the alarm clock. I love Verizon. They have great reception everywhere with no dropped calls. I've only had the phone less than a month. I love the option of ring back tones rather than hearing a traditional ring. I'd get this phone if you just want something simple and you don't need that much other than occasional messaging and phone use.

This phone is very nice it's just like a sidekick 3 but it is way smaller I love it and so does my mom.

Everything about the Samsung SCH-U740 is wonderful except for the battery life. It needs to charge every day, which I am not used to because my old phone would go for at least three days. The sound quality is great and the features are wonderful. I am still playing around with all the things this phone can do. I mainly chose this phone because of the flip design and the ease of the texting keyboard, that is a huge star on the overall rating. I would recommend this phone to anyone who does lots of texting.
