Amazon.com Product Description
Joining its clamshell A717 and candybar A727 cell phone brethren, Samsung and AT&T introduce the A737 in a compact slider format. Like its predecessors, the A737 can access AT&T's dual-band HSDPA/UMTS high-speed 3G network, which makes it easy to download music purchased from AT&T Mobile Music, stream tunes from Napster and eMusic, and watch video streamed from CNN and Comedy Central via AT&T's Cellular Video. It also supports AT&T's Video Share service, which offers a one-way video stream during a mobile-to-mobile phone call. Other features include a 1.3-megapixel camera with video recording capabilities, Bluetooth connectivity with stereo music streaming, compatibility with popular instant messaging services, and MicroSD memory card expansion. 
Enjoy fast 3G multimedia streaming capabilities on the slim slider Samsung A737. | AT&T Service
This AT&T phone can handle high-speed data connectivity via AT&T's 3G mobile broadband data network, which is available in most major metropolitan areas. The AT&T 3G network uses the UMTS 850/1900 network (also known as WCDMA), making it possible to enjoy a variety of feature-rich wireless multimedia services with speeds up to 3.6 Mbps. It also gives AT&T the advantage of offering simultaneous voice and data services. In areas where the 3G network is not available, you'll continue to receive service on the AT&T EDGE network, which offers availability in more than 13,000 US cities and along some 40,000 miles of major highways. Providing average data speeds between 75-135Kbps, it's fast enough to support a wide range of advanced data services, including video and music clips, full picture and video messaging, high-speed color Internet access, and email on the go. With 3G connectivity, you'll be able to access AT&T's Video Share service, which enables you to send a live, one-way video stream to another compatible phone during a standard voice call. The service also allows you to switch the direction of the video stream during the same phone call. (Customers must be in an area served by the company's 3G network and have a Video Share-enabled phone.) It's also packed with multimedia streaming and download capabilities. AT&T's Cellular Video (CV) service features content from CNN, The Weather Channel, iFilm, Comedy Central and exclusive premium content from HBO and much more. And you get access to AT&T Mobile Music, which enables you to buy tracks while on the, access the Napster subscription music service, stream music video, discover what's playing with Music ID song-recognition software, and find out what's hot with The Buzz music news portal. (A MEdia Max subscription bundle is recommended for accessing AT&T's Internet, video, and music services.) The phone has a built-in web browser for MEdia Net downloads and mobile web browsing. AT&T's MEdia Net service enables you to receive and send emails, read news headlines, get weather updates, download games and ringtones, and more. Phone Features

 Good so far July 18, 2008
Just got this phone last week for $30 from At&T store. I never had a slider phone and didn't think I would like it. But I was tired of always getting clamshell phones and thought I would make a change. The phone feels very solid in my hard, it has some weight on it to make it feel non-cheap. I got the red color phone (unlike the orange or the lime) the back is also red, which matches the frame. I haven't make that many calls on it yet but from what I've experienced, the quality is alright, I won't complain. The 3G connection seems to be worse then when it is on Edge, but you can always turn off 3G. The features on the phone is very nice, it's nothing that fancy, but everything that a person would need. I like the bluetooth connectivity which helps me to get pictures onto the phone, and out with my macbook. I also bought bluetooth headset which will come ion handy as this phone does not have earphone jack. The phone does get hot after about 10 min of talking, so for longer calls I would suggest getting a bluetooth headset. I also like the feature where you can customize short cuts for stuff you use the most like addressbook, sound and disply, wallpaper, calendar, camera. I find it very convinient to just go to the shortcut menu and get the stuff I want instead of going through the long way and clicking on 5 different submenues. Most of the time I don't even need to slide the phone out at all. The only time you need to slide it out is if you want to punch in numbers to call, or if you are editing some entry. I bought a 2GB microSD card and it fits right in, so no problem there. The phone itself has 40 or 50 MB of internal storage which is a lot, for putting on some walpaper or ringtones.
I also bought another one for my mom. I tink because of it's easy to use functionalities and design, she will be happy with it.
Overall I give this phone a 9/10.
 Piece of Junk! July 10, 2008
Please! Do NOT buy this phone. The slide function hits the base mouthpiece every time you use it. The plastic base mouthpiece covering broke off my phone after only 2.5 months! And this was with gentle, infrequent use.
The reception is also very poor. I bought a new Pantech C-300 and the reception is double what this phone had.
Yes, I had to buy a new phone to replace the Samsung, because neither AT&T, nor Samsung would cover the repair. It was considered "cosmetic" damage. It's their design that broke off the mouthpiece!
 Nice features but very sensitive to moisture July 8, 2008
I've owned this phone since Dec. 2007 and like the features but feel that is not as user friendly as my previous Sony Ericsson Phone. My phone was exposed to moisture on July 4th and now no one can hear me when I call them or they call me. It was not submerged or doused with water just exposed to moisture. Now I need a new phone.
Good Phone June 27, 2008
The Samsung A737 is a great phone.
Pros: Big screen, slim, hyper-fast internet connection, bluetooth to connect to your other gadgets, SD memory slot, whatch stream video,good camara and video recorder for a phone!.
Cons: You can't hear your call as clear as with other phones I owned previously. Also as is a slide phone a small accidental slide of the screen while talking makes you loose your call. I don't like the menu that much, but you can create short cuts to the most commom used application and features. This is a big one I did not like: It comes with a bunch of trial application, as well as AT&T phone #s that even if you don't need or want, you CAN NOT DELETE from your phone.
As a overal I think is one of the best FREE phones with state of art gadgets, (when you upgrade or sign a two year contract)
Close to perfect June 18, 2008
I bought this to use my napster on my headphones at work, and only have two complaints. First, if you go to an artist and then select an album the tracks come up in alphabetical, if you listen to comedy or an album where order was a consideration this is very annoying. When you go straight to an album it comes up in order but will occasionaly switch to alphabetical for no reason :( Also it takes too many keystrokes to text someone. Things I would have liked: Fm radio, text by speeddial...and I'll ask santa for the walkman W580i jogging software. I would have got the W580i if I had known this stuff first but I have had such minor problems with this phone that I'll stick with it instead.
