- Notable Features: smooth external display with email/message previews; myFaves; voice notes; voice dialing; push email; stereo bluetooth; 2 MP cam with LED flash and 5X digital zoom, which can be controlled with the trackball. It also captures video.
surprisingly music-friendly; external play/pause button; stereo bluetooth, standard headphone jack; UMA capable; unique form factor; slick new BB interface; more compact than other BlackBerries; still has the BB office apps that keep executives aboard, but feels like a fun phone.
Minus:
no GPS; weak web browsing; some lag here and there.
If you're looking for a strong messaging device that works with a variety of communications platforms, the cap does not disappoint. Make calls over Wi-Fi, and provides excellent call quality in adverse environments. Almost any type of text communications platform available today is accessible on the lid. However, without 3G and a real browser, do not expect to be navigating at night.
Phone Review: Samsung Highnote M630
Short Reviews
Specs:
- Make/Model: Samsung Highnote (M630)
- Data: 1xRTT/EV-DO (3G)
- Network: CDMA 800 / 1900
- Carrier: Sprint
- Weight: 3.5 oz (99 g)
- Size: 4.0" x 1.9"x 0.6" (102 x 48 x 15 mm)
- Form Factor: Slider with bi-directional vertical action.
- Memory: Comes with 1GB microSD, accepts up to 16 GB
- Display: 2” TFT; 262k colors, 176 x 220 px
- Notable Features: Face slides up for keypad access, and down to reveal speakers; dedicated music button for quicker media control; a driving mode that includes computerized reading of text messages among other features; 2.0 MP cam with 4 X digital zoom, video capture, and night shot - no flash.
Very music-friendly; loud and clear speaker; 3.5 mm (standard) headphone jack; stereo bluetooth; comes w/ 1 GB microSD and accepts 16 GB; dedicated music button; Sprint's One Click carousel interface; Sprint TV and Music Store capable; GPS; click-able scroll wheel; SD adapter for quick swapping.
Minus:
One music button is better than no hardware media controls, but I'd prefer the scroll wheel act as a jog/shuttle, and that some other buttons served as play/pause/skip. I like One Click, but would prefer hardware media control. That's it.
If you want to use the phone as their primary device for MP3, the Highnote definitely worth considering - especially if you want to hear without the aid of a headset or car adapter. This is aimed squarely at music fans, and almost all aspects of the phone reflect this. The scroll wheel on the face of the device is not for the music of control. I want to get in shape, because this false hope caused me a brief disappointment with what happens to be a great little music player.
Phone Review: Samsung Rant Black
Short Reviews
Specs:
- Network: CDMA 800/1900 MHz
- Make/Model: Samsung Rant
- Data: 1xRTT/EV-DO (3G)
- Size: 4.5" x 2.1" x 0.7" (114.3 x 53.3 x 17.8mm)
- Carrier: Sprint
- Weight: 4.58 oz (130.4g)
- Display: 2.1” TFT with 172 x 220 pixels and 262k colors
- Form Factor: Candybar with full slide-out QWERTY
- Memory: Comes with 256MB microSD, expandable to 16GB
- Notable Features: killer QWERTY(!); 2 MP cam with mirror and video capture; Sprint TV, Music Store, and One-Click services; and it's only 50 bucks with a contract and rebate.
It's a godsend for mobile text/IM/email addicts; slide-out QWERTY is comfortable and requires about 60 seconds of adaptation; it's Sprint TV and Sprint Music Store capable; music plays in background; stereo Bluetooth; camera with video capture and night shot; photo caller ID; GPS; comes with extra back cover, complete with curly doodles; loads of fun.
Minus:
Web browsing is low-priority; no dedicated music controls; background noise on Rant end can be problematic; more SD storage out of the box would be nice.
If you want to maintain contact along the way, the Rant you covered. Messaging is a monster that is easy to use. It supports Sprint TV and Sprint Music Store, and not surprisingly well in the department of multimedia, messaging phone. A video camera and some base effects make it the perfect accessory for shooting outside the updates or flirting with friends. With expandable storage and a focus on fun, the Rant is an explosion of mobile perpetual.

Android experience is excellent; Web browser is amongst best available on cell phones; Great touchscreen; Touchscreen plus trackball plus QWERTY board provides multiple input options; Notifications bar is handy; Great GMail & Google services implementation; 3G and WiFi for fast data speeds; Amazon provides DRM-free mp3 downloads via WiFi
Minus:
Big, bulky, heavy, and not particularly attractive; QWERTY thumbboard is not as good as those on other recent HTC phones; Lacks 3.5mm headphone jack; No Stereo Bluetooth or video capture/playback support out of the box
Android will change the game, and although far from perfect, the G1 is more than convincing. I have a list of grievances a mile long, but was overshadowed by the amusing way the user experience of Android is on the T-Mobile G1.
Phone Review: Samsung i900-Omnia
Short Reviews
Specs
- Make/Model: Samsung SGH-i900 (Omnia)
- Data: Quad-band EDGE, Bluetooth 2.0, Wi-Fi,
- Network: HSPDA 7.2 Mbps
- Carrier: Unlocked
- Weight: 122 g
- Size: 112 X 56 X 12.5 mm
- Form Factor: Candybar with full Touchscreen
- Memory: 16GB/8GB with an SDHC expansion slot that supports an additional 16GB
- Display: 3.2” TFT WQVGA (240 X 400)
- Notable Features: 1440mAH battery; Windows Mobile 6.1 professional, Push email, tv-output, business card recognition, Samsung's proprietary easy sharing capabilities, nice camera.
Universal landscape mode and universal landscape QWERTY; optically-enhanced action button functions as a scroller or track pad; appropriate use of haptic feedback and accelerometers; excellent 5 MP camera with LED flash, auto-focus and face detection; secondary cam for video calls; embedded GPS; FM radio and overall A/V-friendliness; large, welcoming and sensitive screen; it's a generally comfortable phone that makes you feel cool even though you're obviously using a Windows product.
Minus:
Windows Mobile may be a bit cumbersome and inaccessible for some users, even with Samsung's TouchWiz UI, which is a bit bland, but better than WM default; reception problems in sketchy coverage areas; no built-in stylus sheath; volume rocker sits RIGHT next to the camera button; in-call screen lock can be a hassle; proprietary headphone jack.
The Omnia is at the top of each list-gotta-try that phones with touch screen. You can hardware and a generous screen, big and sensitive enough to compete in the PC market-driven. The unlocked version is expensive, but it's cheaper than the nearest rival - The HTC Touch Diamond. And it feels harder than other phones in the same price range. Windows Mobile is not the favorite of all interface, but you really have to play with this beauty to appreciate the manner in which rests comfortably in the hand.
Phone Review: HTC Touch - Diamond
Short Reviews
Specs:
- Make/Model: HTC Touch Diamond
- Data: GPRS/EDGE/W-CDMA, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g, Bluetooth 2.0
- Network: GSM/HSDPA: 900/1800/1900 and 900/2100, respectively.
- Carrier: Unlocked
- Weight: 110 g
- Size: 102 X 51 X 11.35 mm
- Form Factor: Candy bar with Touchscreen
- Memory: 256 MB ROM, 192 MB RAM, Internal storage: 4 GB
- Display: 2.8-inch TFT-LCD flat touch-sensitive screen with VGA resolution
- Notable Features: Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional, TouchFLO™ 3D, GPS (A-GPS-capable with additional free software),
- FM Radio,
- 3.2 MP camera with auto focus, and a secondary VGA CMOS cam for video calls.
Stunning hardware design and elegant software user interface; front panel is subdued, intuitive and refined; display is bright and sharp with excellent contrast; sensitive touch-screen; amazing orientation and localized haptic feedback capabilities; secondary camera for video calls; easy internet connection sharing; glorious font rendition.
Minus:
Stylus is a virtual requirement for accessing certain parts of the user interface; landscape mode is underutilized and landscape QWERTY availability is far too rare; some minor integration flaws between Windows Mobile 6.1 and TouchFLO 3D; no memory expansion options; proprietary HTC USB jack for headphones.
With its unique body and incredibly elegant interface, HTC Touch Diamond is a beautiful, distinguished headset. The sharp screen is a joy to play, and the screen is very sensitive to the touch. The accelerometers are equally sensitive and accurate, and localized tactile feedback is the best I've experienced. Innovative hardware and software interface elements, like the almost imperceptible movement ring, are so well integrated and rewarding that you wonder how you lived without them. It's a great phone, but the rarity of casual behavior and unfulfilled expectations are evidence that the software needs to catch up with the very capable hardware.
