I like the unlimited calls and messaging. I enjoy the internet service. The Behold takes good pics and videos. There's not many apps that work with the Behold and that's the worst thing I can say about it. Overall the Behold is ok.

The Samsung Behold is so much more than a phone. It is easy to store music files with great sound. My daughter has a BlackBerry Pearl that she hates because it doesn't have any speed. No problems with the Behold. I love this phone.

I want to start off by saying that I love the Samsung Behold. The way it is set up takes a little getting used to and the touchscreen for typing sometimes gets confused, but it is a good purchase. It plays music great, it connects bluetooth great, and the battery is alright, but you can charge it with the usb, car, or wall. So, there is plenty of ways to keep juiced.

I am immensely enjoying my Samsung Behold. It's touchscreen is easy to use, the call quality is fabulous, and I love having the full keyboard option to respond to emails and texts. MyFaves is fabulous and the plan is very affordable. The battery life could be a little longer, but is very adequate for my needs. I get a very good day's use out of it. I have had my phone for a little over a month and, overall, I am extremely happy with it.

I love the Samsung Behold. I have the pink one and it is sexy. Very sleek, classy, and most of all modern. I love the touchscreen, thought I would need a stylus. I love the qwerty keyboard. The camera is great and I'm very picky when it comes to cameras on phones. I'm still new to it but so far I'm loving it.

There’s a lot to like about the Samsung Behold. The display is bright and the speakerphone is loud and clear. It has a customizable scroll bar on the left of the screen to launch applications and permanent quick start icons along the bottom for dialing, the phone book, web and the full menu. The onscreen numeric and alpha keyboard displays large easy to hit “buttons” and you can toggle between the on screen numeric and QWERTY keyboard just by turning the phone sideways. The applications on the bar are scrolled with a heavy touch of the finger and are accessed with a light finger tap. And you can add or remove application icons to suit your needs. You can also drag them on and off the desktop for use, like the media player which comes through the speakerphone well.

The Samsung Behold looks nice and it is easy to handle. I have trouble hearing the caller most of the time. The volume is not loud even when turned all the way up. I love the touchscreen and the ease of using it. I am not able to download music from the computer yet. Other than that, I have no complaints. And by the way, I can hear really well so it is not me. I let one of my friends listen to a call one day and they had trouble hearing also.

The Samsung Behold battery lasts most of the day if I'm not doing a lot of extra things on the phone like surfing the web and listening to music, but it's still sufficient for regular use. The phone is nice, very sleek and classy looking. I bought the espresso color and it's even more elegant than I expected. The screen is very brilliant and sharp, pictures look awesome on the big viewing area. I came from a phone that had a small 2" screen and couldn't really see any detail in pictures. Now I can see all the details in pictures that I've taken with the 5 megapixel camera or pictures that others have sent me. The camera is fun and nice to have at hand all the time. I'm a photographer and sometimes I don't have my camera right at hand. With this camera, I don't have to worry about photo quality or about missing a great shot. The call quality is A+. Everyone that I talked to told me to turn down my mic volume because they could hear me to well. I also can hear them clear and very well. I've never had trouble with background noises being picked up like I have with other phones. The only downers of the phone is one, that it's not one of the new smartphones, but I must say that it is the smartest of dumb phones that I have seen. Has great 3G internet possibilities, easy to use web, search, and can support email through web based email programs like Google, Yahoo, AOL, Hotmail, Netzero, and a couple more. The touchscreen is very receptive and easy to use. You can drag your widgets to your desktop or you can leave them on the expandable launch bar until you need them. Texting is easy and fun back to texting. It has the T9 texting by default but is very easy to turn off with one tap on either of the two texting screens you're back to tapping out letter by letter your texts, or you can learn to use the T9 either way. The screen is easy to tap out messages and the keys are big enough that most fingers should be able to hit the right keys. I love the qwerty keyboard. With this phone you have a choice when it comes to texting, either the normal phone keypad style or turn the phone on it's left side and the qwerty keyboard automatically comes up. The phone only has 6 physical buttons: the external volume control, the green answer/send, the back bar, the red end/hangup, the external camera button, and the screen lock button. When I started looking for a phone, I researched so many. Overall this phone had the best perks, only one of 3 phones that I found with the 5 megapixel camera and full web browser. It has exceeded my expectations. A+

I've had my Behold for about a month now and absolutely love it. The call quality is great and the touchscreen makes it incredibly easy to do everything. I can get to anything I want in two touches. Internet is alright. Kind of a simplified internet, but I'm writing this review right now with the web browser on my phone. You can go to quite a few sites like Youtube, weather.com, and you can use mapquest instead of subscribing to the Beholds loaded GPS service, which from the reviews that I read kinda sucks. The camera is good if you can hold still, but you can say that about any camera. I really liked the panoramic mode of the camera and the ability to edit photos on the phone itself. Overall, this is the best phone I've owned. Great alternative to the iPhone if you want something cheaper. No more pressing buttons to scroll through lists.

I have had the Samsung Behold for almost a month now, and so far it has been good. Yes it takes amazing pictures. There is a panoramic mode, smile detection and many different types of mosaics. Also it has good flash. The only bad side to the camera is that there is no way of turning off the shutter sound, but what I am surprised about is that no one ever writes about the great photo editing tools! You can edit the color, contrast and brightness. You can crop it and transform pictures. But, what I like most is the ability to add effects such as different filters, styles and you can warp pictures too. The video camera is very high quality for a phone. It was more than I expected. This is a video camera phone you will want to use. Records 10 minutes and up. Texting is somewhat a breeze, I just think the space bar should have been larger. Calling on the phone can get annoying if you are even remotely near any noise. It's sad to say, the only bad part about this phone is the phone itself. I have never lost a call. I always have amazing reception no matter where I am. The 3G works great. Multi-media messages are easy to send. The internet works well and loads most pages in 15-18 seconds, although Google loads in 4-5 seconds which is nice. Youtube is okay, but the videos could show up bigger, but it does open them fast. The mp3 is a nice feature and since it holds up to 16g, I stopped using my old one because I have everything I could ever want to listen to on it. Another cool thing is the touchscreen. It has great feedback and is easy to use. The widget bar on the main screen comes in handy also.

The Samsung Behold is the best phone Samsung has put out so far. It is easy to use and the TouchWiz interface in unbelievable. The accelerometer is great for looking at pictures and texting. The 5 Megapixel camera takes excellent pictures and this phone has the option of a flash with the camera or you can use the light for recording. This is the best phone with Windows Mobile. You can not go wrong with this phone. I have had it for a month and I haven't had any problems with it. The 3G internet service is broadband fast and thee is a little waiting time for a page to appear. Youtube does work on this phone. If you are under T-Mobile and your looking for a touchscreen phone, this will be the best option. Look out Verizon and Sprint because T-Mobile is on the rise.
