The Samsung J700 has an elegant shape and a sliding mechanism that is en vogue among mobile phones these days. Its casing is black and its finish, glossy – though not shiny, which is just enough for it to stand out, to be recognized and to impress.
It weighs in at a light 92 grams. It is 99.5 mm tall and 48 mm wide. It’s just 14.7 mm thick. That’s thin especially for a slide-opening phone. Super slim and super sleek, this phone will make you proud. It will make you want to show it in sidewalks, subways, or just anywhere in public.
Its display screen is 2 inches in size and shows up to 65k colors and can be viewed when the handset is either open or closed. The keypad is neatly spaced, and the keys are not too small nor too big. This feature makes the phone user-friendly.
The J700 has a 1.3 megapixel digital camera which allows the user to capture either moving or still footages. The camera keys make it easy for the user to shoot images – even of him or her.
