Samsung BlackJack SGH-i607 |
Picked up the Blackjack this morning and I must say it's a solid little SOB. As you'll read the matte finish makes it feel really nice in your hands. I like the jog wheel a lot too even though it's not adjustable (yet). The phone looks and acts a lot like the Q but the slimmer profile is noticeably better to work with. The menu's and layouts are well planned and like all my previous Smartphones it has the same basic sub-menus and categories. WMP10 is a lot nicer then 9 was and when you pop in a T-flash card (which does pop right out BTW) it asks if you'd like to find media. BT stereo works flawlessly with my HT820 for music but watching a hi frame rate movie was a little chunky. I need to try a lower frame rate with BT to see if it makes a difference. So far I've been using almost non-stop and the battery was only half full. I'm sure it'll take a lot of charging but hey with two batteries and an external charger I can make it work. Might even turn the external charger into a little "backpack" with straps or Velcro to give me a longer out of office time. So far the 3G work awesome in the East bay and screams through mobile web pages. It bounces off and on in my apartment but When the signals is solid it kicks EDGE of the well you get it....
PROs:
HSDPA is fast and solid QVGA landscape great for web and media XM radio totally rocks! Keyboard layout is highly functional BT stereo works really well Built in Task Manager and Piscel Viewer JAVA download app Nice external speaker Hot swappable Tflash Jog button Overall size and feel :)
CONs:
Stupid proprietary plugs Battery life (manageable) Center nav button to close to end and call lacking LED flash (handy as a light) T-flash vs. miniSD No Wi-Fi
I'm very satisfied with this phone and would recommend it to any business people and students who want an all around practical phone with a lot of usability.
