CNET reviews the Samsung SCH-U420, they rate the phone 7.6/10 and writes:
“Definitely one of the most eye-catching aspects of the SCH-U420 is its luscious 1.8-inch 262,000-color screen. The colorful menu icons appeared to pop from the display, and we liked how the fonts were easy on the eyes. You can change the backlighting time of the display and the keypad, but there’s no contrast or brightness setting. The font settings for the dialing text are changeable, either in terms of size or style, but the same settings don’t apply for other texts…The good: The Samsung SCH-U420 is a slim, compact slider phone featuring a VGA camera with flash, a speakerphone, voice command, Bluetooth, and wireless Web access. The bad: The Samsung SCH-U420 has slippery keys that may be a little tricky to dial by feel, and photo quality was average”
