The new SCH-U740 from Verizon Wireless is Samsung’s first attempt of offering a QWERTY device that is in direct competition to LG’s enV (VX9900). While both phones offer a QWERTY keypad, that is where the similarities end. The enV has been on the market for three months and has a solid reputation, which is held over from the previous model last year (VX9800). LG took the VX9800 and made significant improvements with the second-generation VX9900 device. However, the Samsung U740 lacks many of the improvements that are found on the VX9900. The VX9900, which we recently reviewed, is a clamshell phone that incorporates a numeric dialing pad and 65K color display on the front, 2MP camera, with a QWERTY keypad, Stereo Speakers, and QVGA 320x240 display on the inside.
