Samsung Glyde Review - Introduction
IntroductionDid the shrink-job work? Yes, I think it did. Glyde is a fun, feature packed phone with a good touchscreen, very usable QWERTY board, and loads of features. Verizon kept the basis of Samsung’s Croix UI intact and Glyde wound up with a clear, easy-to-use menu system built for its touch display. Glyde has its faults, and at 17.8mm from front to back it’s a bit on the thick side, but all in all it offers a nice alternative to the Samsung Alias and LG’s Voyager and enV2 for Verizon subscribers wanting a messaging phone.

But it does well enough to text, usually from anywhere, and i can send and recieve calls, usually. Most of the time they eventually get dropped. But my question is, will i be able to get a signal with my new glyde? I've heard that the glyde's signal strength is weak. So I'm just a bit worried about not being able to use my phone at my house. Saturday, August 16, 2008Dont listen to the touch screen rumors i got mine yesterday and it is fine Saturday, August 09, 2008the glyde ROX i luv it its the best phone ever created i think the only phone better than it is the sidekick 2008 but i luv the glyde SSSSSSSSSOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooo much Friday, August 08, 2008i'v heard rumors about the touchscreen on the glyde. is it true that there are problems with it? or is it just that people have really bug finger and cant hit the button right on? Wednesday, August 06, 2008The glyde sucks. Thursday, July 31, 2008Is the glydes keyboard better than dares touch screen keyboard since the glydes keys are so small idk... Wednesday, July 30, 2008hey i was wondering. for this phone i have the gylde and i love it to pieces =] but i was wondering can the gylde read text messages out loud to you ? Tuesday, July 29, 2008yes there is a firmware update it should be available now Saturday, July 26, 2008Is there a firmware update coming out?
i've heard rumors Thursday, July 24, 2008it would be a big help if you could do a comparison between the three verizon touchscreens: dare, glyde, voyager. Sunday, July 20, 2008I just purchased this phone and absolutely love it!!! Yes the touchscreen is only sometimes a little sketchy but not much at all. Besides the keyboard feature is absolutely easy to use in place of touchscreen when on the browser. The pic quality, layout, thickness, and length are perfect. It took me almost 2 months to finally find a phone that I liked. The speakerphone is extremely clear and loud! you can set your wallpaper up as a slide show of pictures, I definitely recommend this phone to anyone who doesnt like the other touchscreen phones due to length. Monday, July 14, 2008Glyde is a sweet phone Monday, July 14, 2008I'm really really looking into getting this phone. I want it alottt, but the touch screen problems and the not-so-great service are making me second think.. I'm not on the phone alot, just a teen who text messages ALOT, I don't plan to use the internet, so this is a great phone to get right? the keyboard and touchscreen is what made me really want it; and i'm tired of a flip phone. Sunday, July 13, 2008I'm not sure whether to get the glyde or dare. I actually like the look of this phone, but the touchscreen problems are scaring me away. Im due for an upgrade in a few weeks and hopefully samsung will decide to make an update for the glyde. If they don't i'm going with the dare Tuesday, July 08, 2008I just got this phone and it's awesome. I love it and I'd reccomend it to everyone! Saturday, July 05, 2008I luv the glyde best phone in history!!!! Saturday, July 05, 2008The glyde is the best. I think it's also better than the Env2 but my question is ive herd lots of complaints about the touch screen. Is it not very good or what. I also have another question which should i rather get the glyde or the voyager. Saturday, July 05, 2008i have an orange enV but it has been having problems with buttons not working and i really want the glyde, if i take my enV in to a verizon store will they just give me a refurbished enV? or a diff phone? cuz they stopped making the enV and with my old phone they just gave me a new one of the same phone... Wednesday, July 02, 2008I love this phone, thats just why i watned to keep it protected from scratches, dings, and everyday stuff that happens to phones. I did a little homeowrk and found Phantomskinz! They make protective non scratchable patterns for phones. I orderd it online at Phantomskinz.com and installed it myself. It fits like a glove and you cant even tell its on! i recomend this to anyone whos looking foor protection on their devices Wednesday, June 25, 2008i think the LG enV2 is the best. the key board is modern, and usable, the size basically slim, the front is sleek, and overall its an amazing phone! especially 4 teenz, and collage studants itz really popular! evryone should have it
