Samsung Flipshot SCH-U900 Reviews

Trusted Reviews reviews the Samsung Flipshot SCH-U900 and writes;

“And just as fortunately the Magical Touch window works a treat. You can calibrate its sensitivity to meet your requirements. And there is a slight vibration from the phone when a tap is registered. The options offered are useful and relevant and the played down graphics which avoid a blingy appearance are businesslike rather than flashy. It is all really very good as far as touch systems go…Others toying with touchpanels should learn from what Samsung has got right here especially its utilitarian icons, great feedback, user calibration of touch sensitivity and hardware buttons for Call, End and softmenu features. ”

“The new Samsung U900 Soul Silver edition offers exactly the same great technology, design and features as the previous model but now comes in a sleek, chrome silver finished exterior that really sets the phone apart from the graphite model…Although initially released on O2, the Samsung U900 Soul Silver is expected to be launched on further UK networks very shortly which will increase the number of tariffs available to consumers and make finding teh right package a much easier experience. “

MobileTechReview reviews the Samsung Flipshot SCH-U900 and writes;

Pro: Good looking. Excellent camera. Listening to music via Bluetooth stereo headset is absolutely a joy. VZ Navigator along with the built-in GPS work like a charm. Con: Reception isn’t very strong; when in spotty coverage areas, voice quality and V CAST experience suffer. The battery life isn’t stellar. Package doesn’t include wired headset or USB cable. ”

CNET reviews the Samsung Flipshot SCH-U900 and writes;

“Its 3-megapixel shooter is one of the best we’ve seen on a cell phone in a while. You can take pictures in eight resolutions (2,048×1,536 down to 160×120) and choose from three quality settings, three color effects, and three white-balance settings. There’s also a digital zoom (unusable at the highest resolution), spot metering, ISO, an auto-focus, three multishot models, a flash, a self-timer, and a brightness control. ”

LaptopMag reviews the Samsung Flipshot SCH-U900 and writes;

“In general, calls were crisp, but the speaker sometimes got loud enough for the voices to squeak a bit. We were surprised at how well the FlipShot handled ambient noise: Our call recipient thought we were still in the office, when we were actually outside on the street with trucks whizzing by. The FlipShot’s decent battery life lasted for a good 2.5 days of intermittent use, which included making calls and snapping plenty of pictures. ”
Rating: ★★★½☆

PCMag reviews the Samsung Flipshot SCH-U900 and writes;

“The u900 is a fairly large (3.9 by 1.7 by 0.7 inches; 3.9 ounces) yet comfortable flip phone with rounded edges. On the outside, there’s a dim 1.2-inch 128-by-96-pixel LCD that shows an analog clock, and some invisible, touch-sensitive music control buttons. Flip the phone open to find a large, bright, 2.2-inch, 320-by-240-pixel screen and a keypad with keys that are flat but large enough and well separated. ”
