Blackberry phones are really popular and the design is being sought of because of its easiness to handle and use. Having a complete QWERTY keypad on the face of the phone makes it look quite sophisticated though. It also looks ugly to some, it looks like a honeycomb. However, aside from its appearance the keypads really do add usability. It’s got all the things you need in front of you. It's got shortcut buttons that will run the applications that you need.
What I have here in this review isn't a Blackberry phone, it's a new Samsung Touchscreen phone. This touchscreen phone has great usability and is simpler and more usable than having all complete shortcuts and all buttons together on the face of the mobilephone.
This is the new Samsung Blade S5600v. The Samsung Blade S5600v is amazingly easy and comfortable to use. It doesn't have complicated buttons and also has an excellent user interface which also emphasizes usability. It's practically a spoon feed mobilephone with great looks! Here are the details for this great phone.
Design
The Samsung S5600v Blade has almost the design features as that of the Samsung S5800 Jet, only that the latter is longer. Its overall size is only 102.8 x 54.8 x 12.9 mm, it only weighs 92 grams too. It has a 2.8 Inch 16 Million Colour Touch Screen displaying 240 x 320 pixels resolution. The screen has excellent display quality. The screen is exposed on the front and it only has three buttons. On the left is the call button, the center is the cancel button and the last one is the end call button. The big middle buttons is very useful. It's the only button you'd press when you're browsing or navigating the mobilephone.
The user interface is also very easy. It is user friendly and it has 3 different screens. You can swipe it to the sides to reveal the other screens. The three screens gives more freedom to customize it to you liking since of course, one screen won’t fit all the widgets that you would like to add.
Multimedia
The Samsung S5600v Blade has multimedia features that you will like. It's got a decent music player which can play MP3, AAC and WMA. It has DNSe (Digital Natural Sound Engine) which makes sound quality good.
You can watch MPEG4, H263, H264 and WMV formats on its Video Player. You can also play and download games for your entertainment.
Messaging
The Samsung S5600v Blade supports SMS (Text Messaging) and MMS (Multimedia Messaging), sending and receiving aren’t a problem. You can also send and receive Emails.
Calling
Calling on the Samsung S5600v is as good as any smartphone. It has Quad Band network connectivity, utilizing four frequencies in GSM 850, GSM 900, GSM 1800 and GSM 1900. This means the phone is great for roaming allowing you to have great connectivity even in between countries.
It has 3G HSDPA (HSDPA 900 and 2100) which is efficient and makes Video Calling smooth and fast.
Camera
The Samsung S5600v Blade has great camera features and it is great for taking pictures on occasions and other important unforgettable moments. It has a 3.2 Megapixel camera. It has LED Flash, Auto Focus and Smile Detection. It can also record video clips in 15 frames per second.
Internet
The Samsung Blade has great Internet connectivity and is an ideal phone for browsing. It’s got GPRS technology which is now the usual connectivity implemented in mobile phones. The phone has EDGE technology which is 4x faster than GPRS, currently the fastest technology that transfers data efficiently. It's got a WAP 2.0, XHTML and HTML browser too which displays almost like the desktop browser.
Memory
It is capable of storing 50GB of files, messages, songs, videos, etc. It has MicroSD memory card support up to 8GB.
Battery
Having all these great features, it is a great phone to have… except that it only has 2 hours talk time or 250 hours standby.
Overall, it is quite a disappointment when it came to its battery life. The battery life is also what makes or breaks a mobilephone. If you’re interested in other phones such as the more favorable Samsung Jet, you can get it on cheap Samsung S8000 mobilephone Jet offers. They are easily available on the Internet and you also get a free Samsung S5600 Blade mobilephone deal.
