Yet another phone which is very exciting to look and has an exciting ad.The Neo(Keanu Reeves) from matrix is using this phone.Hold on a second ,will he really use this?Is this phone has those futuristic abilities for Neo to own this?No absolutely not. Woe to the buyers who bought this phone without knowing what it has inside!!!
It has a camera oh good!! but the resolution is 352 x 288 pixels.I cant even cover my 3 month old nephew with this....When I use the zoomer, im loosing sharpness.When we saw the photos in the camera it was kinda ok....When we transfered it into the PC we got a shock.The pic is not at all looking like 352 x 288 which the manufacturers claim.The pic is very small and almost the same size we saw in the display of the mobile which is 128 x 160.When we tried to enlarge it, it looked like crap.This camera is not for serious capturing...this is just like a toy.whts the use of having it to rotate 180 degree when the camera is a piece of junk.When other phone can offer 640X480 certainly Neo will buy a Nokia 6600 or a siemens SX1 and not this...
The display is very good indeed.The TFD display is sharp as ever.Nothin can come closer to this not even a SX1....But the default pics and the screensavers are not that impressive, but u can customise it with a PC.Certainly Neo will buy this for its Display.
The ringtone is samsungs secret weapon...The polyphonic sound they produce is very realistic and it wins the war in terms of ringtones.But as I said the default ringtones are crap...The other stupid stuff is it wont accept a Midi...We need a converter to convert Midi to MMF format which is a big headache...It has some cool animal prays which is quite good.the most impressive thing is when we open the flip we can set a tone to be played and when we close it, we can set a sound to be played.But this stuff is also in a siemens SL55 which has a much better tones for the flips.Moreover Neo wont bother about the ringtone quality so he wont buy this for this.
This phone has nothing new other than this....The same old samsung stuff...This phone is a clone of blue I.The only thing is this has a camera(believe me I wont call tat as a camera!)
After considering all this Neo will buy a V200 but he will give this to her girl firend Trinity or even he wont consider to buy one....Ths phone may suit for the women who loves looks and sparkling display and ringtones and not about its usability or features.But this is certainly not for Neo.He will buy a Nokia 6600 or a Siemens SX1!!!
P.S.This phone has GPRS and MMS...but it has no plans for a streaming video or video capturing....Moreover it has a very small built in memory of 4 Mb...The reception and voice clarity is as good as the previous samsungs and its quite impressive.
