Cell Phones : Samsung Blast SGH-T729

Had a T629 broke it, insurance company sent me the T729(Blast). At first I really liked, it looks pretty cool (red on black), like the big screen, like the key board similar to the blackberry pearl. The phone also has a really good camera. A couple things could be better, the battery will only last me 12 hours on a really good day, the phone seems to be built a little poorly my old T629 was very solid and slid up and down really smoothly, on this phone you have to push up and down a little harder and when the screen is in the up position it will wobble a little from side to side. The speaker phone isn’t very loud and unlike the T629 the Blast doesn’t have a separate speaker as far as I can tell. Another problem I had, but this may just be with my phone, is that when I insert my micro sd card into the phone and try to access the files i.e. Mp3’s, photos, etc, it won’t always pick it up sometimes it will just say memory card empty, but again it may just be my phone. Overall from 1-10 I would give the phone a 6 pretty nifty, but could be better. Hide Full Review

I love my blast just got it on saturday and let me tell you well worth my time and money. I love the features on this phone and how it works and how clear my ringtones play on the phone and the sliding sounds and the keyboard is awesome. Alot of people dont own this phone cause they are so hooked on the sidekick but been there done that. I think if you want to be different this is the way to go tmobile did it up with this phone. Yeahhhhhhh for the blast! Go get yours ASAP!!!!! Hide Full Review

This phone is horrible. Do the people who made this phone even test it out before they put it on the market? The volume is terrible. I keep having to ask someone to repeat what they say, and vice versa. The ringer is way too low. The noise the phone makes when you slide it up and down is louder than the volume! I sent someone a picture message and it took him 2 1/2 hours to get it! DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS PIECE OF JUNK!!!!! Hide Full Review
