Good Points

The display on the outside is great and very functional. The automatic opening of the phone is pointless, useless and will kill your battery. However, you will love it! It is brilliant! And luckily you will find an extra battery in the box, surely a great gift of Samsung!


Bad Points

Samsung hates Bluetooth, but everyone else loves it and this phone doesn't have it! It also is just a dual band phone, covering only the majority of the populated world. The lines of messages do not wrap on words, which makes the GUI look very cheap. Samsung should spend more energy on its GUI, because its competitors do a better job. The memory is not shared and not extendable, therefore even 5MB feels small. The address book does not store addresses or birthdays, just phone numbers and e-mail.


General Comments

This phone has a really nice design. It looks great and feels good, especially the automatic opening and the external display. The specs are fine for a 2004 phone; it has the color display, a 2nd display, Java support, the camera and everything. But, buy only this phone if you like the looks of it. Otherwise go for one of the competitors (e.g. Motorola V600 or Sony Ericsson K700i). They will give more value for your money: a higher screen resolution, more GSM bands and Bluetooth of course.
