Samsung Juke Review

[forumwatcher]

The Bottom LineThe Samsung Juke is a good affordable music player cell phone. Its 2GB memory will let you store a fair number of MP3 songs (roughly 600 basic songs) and its thin candy bar design is stylish and will slip easily in your pocket. But if you want a phone that's highly functional and will help you stay productive, look elsewhere. The Juke's form factor is perfect for a music player but not extremely appropriate for a cell phone.



Pros

• The Samsung Juke has a full-featured music player.
• It is lightweight, thin, and narrow.
• The sound quality is above average.

Cons

• Given the small size, text messaging is not as easy as it usually is on other phones.
• It does not have a memory extension card slot. However it does have a 2GB internal memory.
• It takes a while to get used to the swivel system.

Description

• The Samsung Juke weighs 2.82 ounces and its dimensions are: 3.82 x 1.18 x .83 inches.
• It features a small but high resolution 128 x 220 TFT display with 262,000 colors.
• It has a VGA camera.
• It should typically let you talk 3 hours and/or remain in stand-by for up to 10 days.
• Form Factor: slider (swivel)
• Downloadable Applications: J2ME
• Memory: 2GB
• Bluetooth
• Music Enabled: FM radio, MP3
• Speakerphone

At first glance, I think the Samsung Juke is way too tall to be a cellphone and the side flip/ swivel thingy doesn't work for me.
