Key calling features include voice dialing, picture phonebook, contacts, call list, vibrate mode, ringer profiles, and more.
Messaging and Internet

You can also check e-mail, sports scores, local weather, and more, using high speed GPRS data services. You only pay for data sent, not total airtime, so costs can stay low.

Camera, Fun, and Games
For your picture-taking pleasure, the T637's digital still camera features CIF resolution (288 x 352 pixels), and 2 MB of shared memory to store your pictures (up to 60 large pictures will fit total). You can send pictures to friends, or save them as picture ID thumbnails in your 500-entry phonebook.
The T637's five-way "rocker" joystick gives a real gaming feel to its controls. The phone comes with a variety of games, and since it sports both Java and Mophun gaming platform compatibility, there are tons of compatible games available on the Web for download as well. There's also a very cool-seeming, built-in 4-track polyphonic ring tone composer. You can even record your own voice and use it as a ring signal.

1 awsome!!!
This phone is the greatest! It has a good solid structure with a very good reception. I would recommend this phone to someone that has never had a cell phone. It has basically all the things a flip phone has except the flip and the supertones for the ring.
2 Solid cell phone with lots of modern featuers, great value
I got my T237 for 7-Eleven's Speak Out Wireless prepaid service. I use it as a backup cell phone.
Cool features:
- Very small and light, 2.8 oz. with battery, all-plastic yet feels solid
- Looks cute
- Very good voice clarity: loud & clear through the earpiece
- Strong reception capability
- Great battery life (assuming you don't trigger the backlight on a lot)
- Speakerphone, always a welcome bonus feature
- Built-in ringtone composer
- Polyphonic ringtones that are pretty loud
- A car racing game included
- In-ear headset included in package
- Easy user interface for the most part
Cold features:
- Keys are small and stiff
- Screen is low resolution at 101x80 pixels and supports only 4096 colors
- Phonebook management is a pain in the butt (but this is true of all GSM phones due to use of SIM card)
- Only two games included
3 Cingular is deceptive!
My review is on Cingular. I bought a phone w/service and was told I could return for full refund and only charged for any air time used. THEY LIE. THE PHONE DID NOT WORK IN MY AREA AND I CANCELLED THE NEXT DAY. THEY ARE CHARGING ME FOR ACTIVATION even though it never worked in my area. If you are uncertain you will keep the phone and service, DON'T BUY from Cingular. Amazon will also do nothing to reimburse.
4 Good phone for a good value
Pros: light, stays charged for a long time, has speaker phone, a lot of features like voice dialing, 4 people conferencing, web access, etc. Uses smart card. From what I could judge the sound quality is good too. I bought the phone for its price and prepared to get a primitive model. But I got much more.
Cons: the buttons are really inconvenient and difficult to press. The ringtones are strange.
