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

Handsfree communication is easy thanks to the integrated Bluetooth wireless connectivity (version 1.2), which includes profiles for communication headset, handsfree car kits, and object push (OPP) for sending images and virtual business cards to other Bluetooth-enabled devices. With the A2DP Bluetooth profile, you can stream your music to a pair of compatible Bluetooth stereo headphones.

 A phone that has everything November 26, 2007

This phone is beyond amazing, my dad got it for me this past weekend and I've already mastered it! You can do virtually anything with this phone, play music, make your own ringtones with MP3. The only advice i have is that you go out and buy yourself a micro SD card it makes life so much easier. With it, you can customize everything from your wallpaper to your ringtones. What's even better is that it comes in five different colors, i got the green one and my sister got the orange one.
Great Phone: good reception, easy to use, loud speaker volume, and easy to customize.
Great Phone! December 25, 2007

I just bought 2 of these to upgrade my wife's phone and mine from a V3 and a V557. What a difference! Lots of features: mp3, video, 1.3mp camera, etc. I found a shareware video converter online and have put some videos onto the 1G microSD card (be sure to get a microSD card for it). It plays great and landscapes to use the whole screen. Another must: If you're going to use the internet and video features of this phone, be sure to get an unlimited data plan, or you'll be paying a bundle. I used 15MB+ the first day on mine just playing around with it. Even with the unlimited data plan, be careful - using some features (XM radio mobile, HBO, etc) will be billed as content. Overall a great phone and easy to use after a couple hours learning all the features and menus.

This is one of the greatest phones from Samsung. It is true that AT&T does not offer many good (new) phones, but this one is hit.
I am planning to get another one for myself, because the first one I got for my wife.
It is very functional, easy to use. Camera of 1.3 MP is good enough.
Can make very long video if have memory card.
Reception with this phone is much better in black spots than with Nokia phones.
There is many good things abut this phone, just get it and you will see.
Awesome phone...bye bye Motorola February 19, 2008

I've had two of these (one for me, one for the wife) for about two months now, and we both really like the phones. They are slick looking, for one thing, but actually work well in pretty much every aspect as well.
Reception has been stellar, no dropped called (even in areas where I know the signal is weak and where our old phones would drop the call). Talking is clear and we haven't experienced any of the echo issues others have mentioned. Basically, for simple phone purposes it has worked flawlessly.
It's got a camera, we rarely use this feature. It's a low resolution and we don't have much use for it, but it's gotta be there nowadays. Web functionality is as good as any small, non-PDA type phone. Again, we don't really use this feature much.
My biggest surprise, and I'm thrilled with it, is the music player. My old Motorola had a wannabe mp3 player, but it was severely limited. This little phone has a better music then my Creative Zen in some aspects. It's easy to load and organize, and sound is awesome. The only complaint is that the volume is digital and the level between 4 and 5 is to different...one isn't quite loud enough and the other is too loud.
All in all, I can't find anything bad to say about this phone, other then short battery life. It really only lasts a couple of hours of use, so that's a little low. Other then that, I'd highly recommend it.
Great, durable little phone May 5, 2008

Slides well, nice key press action. easy to navigate. Doesn't have a calculator, but everything else is great. Drop it all the time and it's even survived a beer bath, but it's takes a beating well. LOVE the mp3 player.
