Samsung SCH-A950
950 or 970
I currently have the VX8000 and want to upgrade to the 950 or 970. The camera on the 970 sounds great but Ringtones are really important to me. With the VX8000, I could make my own and send them to myself via pix message. I wanted to know if that is possible using the 950 or 970. My friend owns a VX8100 and can't set ringtones that are sent via pix message. I hope these two phones dont have the same problem. Someone please help!!

I've owned both of those phones and I actually tried out the 970 twice. I returned the 970 the first specifically because I could not assign sound files sent via vzwpix as ringtones or alerts.

I now own the 950 and I can say unequivocally that you can assign sound files sent via vzwpix as ringtones and the like. This information is current so I don't know if they plan to change any of the above factors in the future with f...

Hi,
Yes, the sound quality, I found, to be much clearer than the e815. However, and I don't know if this has to do with my hand accidentally covering the "intenna", but sometimes the signal breaks up. I don't lose the call, it just get's kind of...broken? It certainly doesn't happen all the time and it may very well be a bad spot I happen to be in, but on occasion it does occur. I didn't really have the 970 long enough to give it as thorough a test as the 950 which I currently retain. Bye!
