Review: Samsung SGH-T809

Infosyncworld has a review on Samsung's SGH-T809 mp3 player:

"Being slightly wider than most handsets nowadays, the SGH-T809 measures 3.8 x 2.0 x 0.6 inches and weighs in at 3 ounces. However, as the slider handset is also very slim and light, the width is duly compensated for by an all-encompassing cool and sleek design. The most apparent design trade-off is the mediocre 5-way navigational pad, yet the numerical keypad's flat buttons fortunately interact very well indeed with the handset's user interface.

The Samsung SGH-T809 sports an impressively bright and clear 262K colour screen with a resolution of 320 x 240 pixels.

For storage of images, the SGH-T809 offers up 65 MB of internal memory, as well as a 32 MB microSD memory card.

As for phone-related features, the Samsung SGH-T809 supports GSM 850/1800/1900 MHz networks, as well as GPRS and EDGE Class 10 support.

Add an all-black and sleek design to a slider handset and it'll be a definitive hit - and even more so if you throw in an impressively bright and clear 262K screen to act as the viewfinder for a Megapixel camera snapping high-quality stills. Still, its slim form factor has led the SGH-T809 to make some compromises, including a mediocre navigational pad and battery life."
