"Easy to customize, slick and easy to use." on by Arthur_Dent
Pros: Small, compact, sturdy, clear screen. Able to customize menu to quickly access functions I use most. Great slide mechanism. Several alarms, nice calendar,address book stores numbers,email,b-day,&more, 5 profiles to customize,nice message tones.
Cons: few ringtones, battery door hard to snap in place, lousy camera, no g-mail, sound and reception adequate but not great, single port to both charge and use earpiece, can overheat with extended use, fair battery life, cant remove display logo.
Summary: Overall, I enjoy this phone. It's very convenient and easy to use. I'd really love it if the camera and video were clear, though.

"pretty good" on by iamdsgn
Pros: slim design, and loaded with features
Cons: poor sound quality , low battery life, drop calls, exessive heat generated
Summary: Overall, this phone is great for if you happen to make short phone calls (2 minutes or less). On longer phone calls, the handset really heats up. Also, when using bluetooth or browsing the net, the darn thing becomes extremely hot. I contacted Samsung directly and they said that this is expected with any phone. However, in my old Nokia this never happened.

"Phone is 2 weeks old and already malfunctioning" on by kekai03
Pros: Colorful big display, nice red color, camera with fun functions, small size
Cons: I dropped it once and now the screen blanks out and goes white, even after taking out the battery and sim card, screen still goes blank/white and have to wait.
Summary: This phone is too fragile for me. Because it's a slider, there's no form fitting cover; you have to take it out of the leather case. Keys are too small and close, hard to text and dial (for someone with arthritis). I wouldn't get this again.

"Great slider phone" on by phatspeed7x
Pros: Easy to use, easy to customize, has a micro SD card slot, built in 1.3MP camera
Cons: No flash for camera, signal can vary in a hurry depending on network, keys are small and makes it hard to text sometimes.
Summary: Samsung has built a pretty durable slider phone with the A737. I've managed to drop mine on several occasions and it's still going. Only complaint is the keys are small and not the easiest to text with.

"Great, small Samsung slider" on by turbotyper
Pros: very loud speaker, signal strength with 3G, good battery
Cons: menu system, text message storage, screen, music player
Summary: I bought this phone as a backup so I don't have to worry about damaging my Blackjack II. I like that the phone is pretty small and durable and has decent battery life. Also the sound quality, both for the music player and during calls is very clear.
Screen could be better, it's very fuzzy and makes the pictures you take with the built-in camera worse than they really are. Once you take the photos off the phone, they actually look pretty good.
I'm not a fan of the menu system, although that is AT&T's fault more than Samsung. Also, when texting, why doesn't the phone erase the old ones automatically once you fill the memory? The phone just tells you to delete some when new texts come in. On the positive side, I do like that the phone lets you have custom ringtones for messages, not just for the ringer.
