The good: The Samsung Renown has a slim design with a brilliant display and easy-to-use controls. It also offers good call quality, and its respectable feature set includes support for 3G networks.
The bad: The Samsung Renown's streaming video quality is poor and the external display is small.
The bottom line: The Samsung Renown has solid call and photo quality, and it offers Verizon customers true world phone support. Yet, its poor streaming video quality keeps it from being an all-around good multimedia device.
After three touch-screen phones in a row, it's nice to see a Samsung phone that doesn't try too hard to make a statement. The new Samsung Renown for Verizon Wireless is one such device; it has a standard flip phone design that Samsung has become...wait for it...renowned for and its midrange feature set is what you'd expect from a Verizon 3G phone. The chocolate color scheme is unique, and the Renown has dual-mode CDMA/GSM support, but ultimately, there's not much to distinguish the Renown from other phones in its class. Performance was mixed with good call and photo quality, but poor streaming videos. The Renown (aka the SCH-U810) is rather costly--$179 with service or $229 if you pay full price.
Design
In many ways the Renown looks a lot like the Verizon's Samsung Gleam. They have similar shapes, are about the same size (3.87 inches by 1.95 inches by 0.69 inch), and both have a glossy skin that catches the light. We haven't seen anything quite like the chocolate brown hue before and we suspect it will be a matter of personal taste. We like it, but we realize other people may not. It's also worth noting that the phone tends to attract fingerprints and smudges. The Renown is a tad heavier than the Gleam at 4.04 ounces. It has a solid feel, even if much of its skin is plastic.
The external display is a little small for the phone's size, but it supports 262,000 colors (96x96-pixels). It shows the date, time, battery life, signal strength, and photo caller ID. It also works as a viewfinder for the camera lens that sits above the screen. Three touch controls for the music player sit just below the display; they allow you to access the media player and control your tunes without opening the phone.
On the left spine of the phone, there is a charger port and a volume rocker. The former uses a proprietary connection. On the right spine, there is a 2.5mm headset jack, a camera shutter, and a key that locks the touch controls. The Renown's single speaker sits on its back. You must remove the battery cover to access the memory card slot.
The internal display is a sizeable 2.25 inches. It supports 262,000 colors, which makes it bright, vibrant, and pleasing to the eye. The menus are easy to use and we're glad they represent Verizon's tweaked design. You can change the brightness, the menu font size, the backlighting time, the clock style, and the dialing font and size.
The Renown's navigation array is spacious and intuitive. There's a four-way toggle with a central OK button, two soft keys, a voice command shortcut, a speakerphone control, a clear button, and the Talk and End/power keys. Though all buttons are flush, tactile ridges between the individual controls give them some definition. You can set the toggle as a shortcut to four user-defined functions.
The keypad buttons have a similar design. Though they're also flat, they are spacious and separated from each other. We could dial and text quickly and comfortably. We could dial by feel and the backlighting helps in dim situations.
Features
The Renown has a 1,000-contact phone book with room in each entry for five phone numbers, two e-mail addresses, and notes. You can save callers to groups and you can pair them with a photo and one of 12 polyphonic ringtones. You also can save three "in case of emergency" contacts and store a personal business card that you can send to other people. As for other essentials, you'll find a vibrate mode, text and multimedia messaging, a speakerphone, a tip calculator, a currency and unit converter, a calculator, a calendar, an alarm clock, a stop watch, a world clock, and a notepad.
Additional features are relatively plentiful. The Renown offers voice commands, USB mass storage, stereo Bluetooth, M3 and T4 hearing-aid compatibility, instant messaging, PC syncing, Web-based POP3 e-mail, Verizon's Visual Voice Mail, and support for VZ Navigator.
The Renown's dual-mode support means that it's compatible with both CDMA and GSM networks. In the United States, you'll use Verizon's network, but when traveling in a GSM-only country, the phone will continue to operate on a local frequency. Though it supports four GSM bands, thus making it a true world phone, you won't be able to switch over to GSM when in the United States--that's Verizon's way of keeping the phone locked. It will come with a SIM card, and it won't work with a SIM card from AT&T or T-Mobile. Though the dual-mode support is convenient for world travelers--they no longer have to get another phone for European travel--keep in mind that you will pay roaming fees and you'll be forced to use Verizon's roaming partners abroad. You won't be able to buy a prepaid SIM card and use it to make calls.
As an EV-DO phone, the Renown supports the full range of Verizon's 3G services, including V Cast streaming video content, and the V Cast Music with Rhapsody. Both the V Cast menu and music store interface are pretty much unchanged from other Verizon phones. Player options include the usual limited shuffle and repeat modes, but V Cast Music also will recommend other songs based on your playlist. Music player features are limited to shuffle and repeat modes and playlists,
The camcorder records videos in two lengths; clips meant for multimedia messages are capped at 30 seconds or you can shoot for longer in the standard mode. Editing options are smaller than on the still camera, but you get a decent assortment. The Renown offers just 50MB of shared internal memory, so we recommend using a microSD card.
You can personalize the Renown with a variety of wallpaper, display themes, and alert tones. If you want more options, or additional ringtones, you can download them from Verizon with the WAP 2.0 Web browser. The Renown doesn't come with any games, but Verizon offers a range of BREW-enabled titles for sale.
Performance
We tested the (CDMA 800/1900; EV-DO, GSM 850/900/1800/1900) Samsung Renown world phone in San Francisco using Verizon Wireless. We didn't travel abroard during our testing period, so we weren't able to test the phone's GSM reception. However, CDMA call quality was pleasant. There was enough volume and the signal was clear and strong. For the most part, voices sounded natural, but we noticed a bit of a hiss on our end. It wasn't always noticeable, so we wouldn't say it was a big problem, but it was there nonetheless. The Renown supports Verizon's "whisper mode," which promises to amplify your voice when speaking in a whisper. It makes a difference as long as there's not a lot of background noise.
On their end, callers said we sounded fine. They could tell we were using a cell phone, but they didn't report a hissing issue. On the upside, most of our callers could hear us plainly, even when we were talking in a noisy location. Automated answer systems could understand us most the time, but it worked best when we were in a quiet room. Speakerphone calls were decent as well. The speaker is on the rear of the phone, but it has a respectable output. Voice quality on our end was clear and callers could understand us if as we were in a relatively quiet room.
On the downside, steaming video quality was poor. The EV-DO signal was strong--videos loaded quickly and played without interruption--but the clips were overly pixelated and blurry. While that can be a common occurrence with 3G streaming videos, these clips just made us want to turn the feature off completely--not good. Music quality was better, fortunately. Thanks to the zippy EV-DO connection, we downloaded a 2.62MB song in about 30 seconds. Music over the external speaker sounds good enough, but a headset will provide the best experience. On one occasion, the phone froze in music mode and we had to remove the battery to fix the problem. That's troubling even if it happened that one time.
The Renown has a rated battery life of 5 hours and 13.3 days. It has a tested talk time of 4 hours and 42 minutes. According to FCC radiation tests, the Renown has a digital digital SAR rating of 0.958 watts per kilogram.

great call quality and features but weird battery life
by hjr88 on April 13, 2009
Pros: great call quality, takes good pictures, awesome loud speaker, good outside music controls
Cons: no flash for the camera, very strange battery life, weak vibrate, and SD card slot is inside next to the battery.
Summary: The Renown is a great and simple flip phone that gets the job done but sadly falls short thanks to its strange battery life.
Lets start with the downside since ...Summary: The Renown is a great and simple flip phone that gets the job done but sadly falls short thanks to its strange battery life.
Lets start with the downside since all the reviews I?ve read here on CNET focus on the negativity of the Renown. First of all most phones nowadays do not come with an external flash feature if their MSRP is under $300. In a way this defeats the purpose of having a 2.0 MP camera or higher but of course if you buy a phone with 3-5 MP?s then you should get a fancy L.E.D. flash feature. The Renown takes good quality pictures in the day light and only in the day light, in darkness it is pathetic to say the least. You can always try and touch up your pictures but most wont or just don?t know how. No flash is a let down but only is you?re a big ?night time? person. Another annoyance is the weak vibrate feature. The phone gives you the option of vibrating and ringing at the same time when you get a call, txt or set a reminder but the vibrate is so weak that the only real way to feel it is if the battery life is at full power and the phone is secured in your pocket not jumping around. I remember the old Motorola 770i for Nextel vibrated like a machine gun and that?s how a vibrate feature should be but those days are gone. Luckily the speaker on the Renown is loud enough that it makes up for the weak vibrate but sometimes you just need the vibrate on. The SD slot is behind the battery cover and inside the phone. It becomes a tedious problem if your always uploading or downloading things from the SD card. The biggest problem with the Renown and the main thing that kept me from giving it a 5***** rating was the really strange battery life. Before writing this review I read how other persons Renown?s have had disgustingly poor battery life and I have to say that my Renown has given me up to 4.5 hours of talk time. The battery life is still highly questionable but when it comes to talk time it really delivers. Almost every night I talk on it for at least 3.5 hours and the most I have gotten out of it in one conversation was 4.5 as I said. The problem with the battery life is if you leave your phone on stand-by in a ?dead zone? or if you set your reminders to more than 2 rings. For example, lets say your at work or something without the phone and you leave it somewhere where you have one bar or no reception at all, this will cause the phone to keep searching for reception which drains the battery. As for the ?reminders? problem this drains battery life the fastest because the phone will keep ringing and or vibrating until you make it stop. Also charging any battery every night will cause it to loose power faster and have a shorter overall lifespan. Another big battery killer is having the phone in your pocket too long or in contact with your direct body heat. This also cause the battery to loose its charge in a faster manner. If you don?t believe me Google it.
On the positive sides of the Renown I will keep it short. The call quality is great and if its not it can always be the other persons network. It can be poor reception on your part and c?mon the Renown has no expandable antenna, which be nice and helpful. The speaker is just great and so very loud which is a huge plus and in a way makes up for the weak vibrate. The outside music controls need a firm touch which mean even if you forget to lock them it wont start the music player by just taking a step. Good pictures but ONLY in the sunlight, I cant stress thins enough. Overall the phone is not perfect but I would recommend it.3 out of 3 users found this user opinion helpful.

Good phone if you don't unplug it from the charger

Summary: My initial feeling of the Samsung Renown was that is a very capable flip phone. The call quality is pretty good, the displays are vivid, and the camera takes great photos in adequate light. Beyond that, that the phone is a complete let down.
I contacted Samsung, and they insisted that I must have had a run of bad luck and got 2 defective phones. I went to Verizon for a 3rd time and got a 3rd handset. Same problems. I actually talked on the phone one day for approximately 30 minutes. This usage ran off 1 full bar of battery life. Out of the 3 phones I had, the best battery life I could ever achieve was almost 2 days. I finally gave up and returned this phone. I would HIGHLY discourage anyone from buying the Samsung Renown.
I was looking to renew my contract and upgrade my phone, and was disappointed to see that Verizon had moved into 2 distinct categories of phones. Mobile ?media centers? and low-end basic handsets. There is virtually no in between category for those of us who have embraced the convenience of having a basic flip phone that will snap a fairly respectable looking picture when a camera is not handy. My personal opinion is that Verizon seems quite content with using their equipment options to force customers into pricy per month service contracts loaded with features that the average grown adult doesn?t want or need.
I thought I had found a great compromise when I saw the Samsung Renown in Verizon?s lineup of phones. A basic flip phone that will take a half way decent photo when a camera isn?t handy. Being a new father, I was looking for something like this to capture those hard to get spontaneous moments, so the camera feature was an important aspect of my future cell phone. I didn?t want a touch screen ?media center? since my job, as well as the aforementioned child can be difficult on equipment. I wanted a smaller phone that can be safely tossed in a pocket, or carried in a belt case. I wanted a phone that I didn?t have to remember to charge every night. The Renown is rated for 5 hours of talk time, or an admirable 320 hours (13 days) of standby time. The Renown seemed to fit the bill.
I have used the Samsung Renown for a week, and I can assure you that you will never achieve the rated battery life. I?m currently on my second handset, and 3rd battery and the best battery life I?ve witnessed is 30 minutes of talk time with 48 hours of standby time. I am in an area where signal strength NEVER drops below 2 or 3 bars, and the phone NEVER has to search for a signal. Still, every other day I?m rushing home from work to plug the thing in before the battery dies. This is after talking on the phone for a total of 10 or 15 minutes. I hate to think what I?d experience if I actually had to ?use? the thing.
I took the second handset into Verizon?s service center, and the service tech actually had the nerve to tell me that I could not expect the phone to achieve more than 2 days of standby time and that there is nothing wrong with my equipment ? just my expectations. I asked him why the specs state that the Renown will get 13 days of standby time, and he stated ?that is under optimum conditions.? I do not live in the Bermuda Triangle. As stated earlier, the phone never has to search for a signal, and always registers good signal strength, but still the battery life equates to 15% of the advertised duration. I find this to be completely unacceptable.

Had to return 3 of them
by the computer genius on March 16, 2009
Pros: Features visual voice mail shape screen everything but voice quality and some other tehnical thing I will discuss in my main review.
Cons: Voice quality cut's in and out while talking

LAST PARAGRAH ABOVE WAS THIS SUPPOSE TO GO UNDER THE 4TH PARAGRAPH SEE WHAT HAPPENS WHEN I AM IN A RUSH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I really wanted to keep this phone. Everybody says it was clear but I think there was a tinny and muffle componant to this phone.
I"ve had the LG 8300 and I just re activated this phone today and I hear everyone now just great. It seems like the 8300 is the only phone that has good voice quality on the reciving end. I'd love to upgrade to a bigger keyboard and visual voice mail. But the sound quality of these newer cell phones won't allow me to.
The other thing that this phone does is weird. While I was on the phone I heard a baby crying in the background It was just cutting him in and out. I had 3 bars at the time so it wasn't reception. Just for a test I put this phone in front of a TV and called my house phone with it and yes it was doing the same thing. (this happened on all of them)
What it is, is if the person you are talking to is talking to low you will not here anything on this phone. if his voice volume level drops below a certain point and then comes back up you will here the choppy ness. sort of like a wakie talkee sound.
As for a postive note.the screen is great holding the phone is great, visual voice mail is wonderful and when I gave this phone back it felt like a death because I really wanted it for that purpose. But what people want today s features not quality. which makes people like me suffer.
I would give this phone a 5 star if they fixed the voice issue with this phone and make it sound more like a phone rather than a walkee talkee. but I will give it a 2.5 star for (my purposes) for someone else it might be the best phone.
That I could have excused but for my ear I did not like the lower sound frequency that this phone produced, which to me sounds muffled.

Summary: main Negative, its very sensitive to pressure on viewing area where the main clock is, once its closed and going to sleep mode It will go to the shortcut by itself ( my Verizon and mobile web) and might give you roaming charges without you knowing it. The only way right now is to change your short cuts so mine goes to My setting now.
main Negative, its very sensitive to pressure on viewing area where the main clock is, once its closed and going to sleep mode It will go to the shortcut by itself ( my Verizon and mobile web) and might give you roaming charges without you knowing it.
Informed Verizon of this issue, hoping for a software update to change the sensitivity of this phone , or add on of lock key

Summary: t9 is horrible with this phone, it learns new words but fails to move them to the bottom of the list when you dont use them often. I miss typed help once as hejp and it has failed to change back to help. And there is no way at all to reset t9's memory. You can reset the entire phone and loose ur contacts and pictures and music and settings, but nope, not t9's word bank. Also while the phone was in my pocket the screen cracked?? Not sure how that happens, EVER. Lastly the service with it: Since i have had it, I have had to turn it off an on at least 5 times to start receiving messages. And I have waited almost 2 weeks to get a voice mail. I have never had any problems with verizon until this phone. I had an LG for 2 years and it went through drops out of truck and through water and still worked. Best of all the t9 learned correctly and you could edit it as needed. I have never taken the time to review anything before this phone because it is that much of an inconvenience.

Works in Europe BUT,...
by powellwc on September 28, 2009
Pros: Works easily in Europe.
Cons: Short battery life, doesn't work with my Motorola blue tooth, there is no software for editing the address book on my pc.

Summary: On arriving in Switzerland I recieved a text messge saying dial the States normally and dial Swiss numbers starting with 41 like I was in the States. It was easy to call anywhere. Caller id worked and so did my address book. So that part worked well but there are problems at home in the States.
1.) Short battery life, I must have chargers in car, at office, at home and in travel bag
2.) My Motorola blue tooth worked very well with my LG Envie but it doesn't work well enough on the Renown to use. I will have to buy a new blue tooth for driving or maybe a wired head set.
3.) On my old cell phone I had a software package (which I bought for $50 from Verizon,) that allwed be to transfer files and edit my address book on the pc. I found that this software not only doesn't work with the Renown but that there is not even a new version that works with the Renown. Verizon would like me to upload my addresses to their web site and edit there but I am not going to do that, that's just too cozy. -
Fair phone quality. Unusual costly features.
by Rockledge_Rick on September 1, 2009
Pros: Large Keypad and bright display. Ability to have large characters on the display. Analog clock option for quick glance at time. Light-weight. Easy to hold.
Cons: Currently on my second phone. Had chosen not to have mobile web as part of my plan, but a strange glitch with my first phone caused it to indiscriminately access mobile web for multiple downloads over three months. Strange antenna feature on back.
Summary: After three months of unusual charges I finally researched my bill and found multiple "Pay as you Use MB" charges (for instance, July had 22 such charges). They have occurred ...
Summary: After three months of unusual charges I finally researched my bill and found multiple "Pay as you Use MB" charges (for instance, July had 22 such charges). They have occurred at very unusual and inconsistent times (one was at 2:24 a.m., when I know I was asleep). The only solution VERIZON Wireless would offer me was to remove the most recent month's charges, but they would have to deactivate all features except voice and texting. Hence, this phone's ability has been reduced to the same features as one, one-third its cost.
I was able to get the first handset replaced after my third visit to the store, at which time the earphone plug stopped working. My first visits I complained about how frequently I had to charge the battery. Now, I understand that the automatic megabyte downloads were draining the battery. For two months I was using another Verizon phone (the cheap one you get free every two years) because its battery worked so well. With the newer handset I have not had the issue of the battery running low and I guess since most of the features have now been deactivated for this phone that the battery will work fine.
This phone is probably for someone who has a lot of down time to sit and read the news on a 2" screen, etc., but I am too busy working and otherwise living for this phone to really interest me. I am 54 years old and have no need to pay $30/month for Megabyte usage to read the daily news, etc. I imagine there is a convenience having an mp3 player in the handset, but that feature is also lost on me. My point is, this is really not the phone for me, but I will tolerate it for the next 21 months.
I have been a Verizonwireless customer since PrimeCo opened in Orlando. -
Solid Business Phone
Pros: visual voice mail, flip phone for durability
Cons: SLOW menus & graphics. Why is this not an issue for anyone else? At times there is a huge lag between a button press to action on screen.

Summary: I returned a fancy Env Touch because I realized that it would be destroyed by my keys in my pocket AND I really need buttons to be efficient on a phone for texting & dialing. I would have prefered to stay with my LG 8350 or whatever the newest version of it is, BUT I figured I lost at least 10k in revenue last year missing voice mails from clients so visual voice mail is the first order, the next is flip for durability, and third real buttons. I do find it odd that no one else is driven crazy when there is a big delay between a button press and the phone doing something. It sort of seems like the most rudimentary feature that a phone should START with. Bottom Line, good biz phone and, someday, should I go to Europe, apparently I can take it along.
