CNET Asia Review

Good

6

out of 10

View score

The good: Ultra-slim and stylish design; Bluetooth stereo; TV-out; vibration feedback when keys are punched with the phone in silent mode.

The bad: Difficult to flip open; keypad hard to use; no expansion card slot; no 3G; single proprietary port for charger, headset and USB cable; no camera autofocus and photolight.

The bottom line: The Ultra Edition 9.6 is 0.3mm slimmer than its predecessor, but it hasn't addressed the niggling issue we had with the keypad and the option of an expansion card slot is now gone, too.

disappointment

Aug 1, 2007

Rating: 5 out of 10 (Average)
Pros: great to hold in one's hand when its close
Cons: keypad s**ks! no external color screen.
Opinion:
saw this phone being displayed at a mall recently, tested it and all i can say is the keypad is hard to use. and no external color screen for self portrait. was thinking of buying this but decided otherwise. it seems samsung is concentrating more on slider phone just look at their recent new line-up of phones. they just release this to say they have a clamp phone to compete against motorola.
