Galaxy Tab The IPad Killer Review
Oct 7th
The reviews are in and the Samsung Galaxy Tab one-panel slate is a hit, mostly. Reviewers don’t appear to be bothered by the Galaxy Tab’s diminutive size compared to the iPad, no matter what Apple CEO Steve Jobs says. And most see the Galaxy Tab as a credible competitor to the iPad. Will the Galaxy Tab win over your heart? Will Samsung sell one million Galaxy Tabs before the end of the year, or will the electronics maker be forced to come out with a 10-inch Galaxy Tab in the near future? More >
Samsung Epic 4G Review
Aug 20th
Another Android-base device from Samsung that carries improved specs and features is Epic 4G. The significant point about this phone is that it is one of the newest devices that offers complete features as well as excellent performance. Through this all-in-all handset, you will be able to watch TV or a movie through a large 4-inch display.
Epic 4G, the phone that brings thinnest screen display, also offers you the enjoyment through music listening and the great thing is that you will still be able to listen to the music even when device is turned off. Moreover, Epic 4G should become the right choice for gamers since the Super AMOLED touch-screen display has the ability to feature the faster response time and wide viewing angles to prevent blurring or distortion.
Furthermore, there is a futuristic touch visible on Epic 4G and it is especially seen through the modern design of side-sliding full QWERTY keyboard. You can type the text by swiping finger with one continuous finger of sing stylus across the interface keyboard. More >
Samsung Omnia II Review
Mar 10th
The Samsung Omnia II is the newest smartphone offered by Verizon Wireless. It has a few standout components, such as a 3.7-inch, WVGA,AM-OLED screen and a 5.0 megapixel camera/camcorder with flash, some new technology such as the Swype keyboard, and the usual features today’s consumers have come to expect,like Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.
It is available now for $200 with a two-year contract and a $100 mail-in rebate.
BUILD & DESIGN
When I took the Omnia II out of the box, the first word that came to mind was “sexy” — this really is a nice looking device. It’s a little on the large side compared to other phones, but that’s due to the 3.7-inch, AM-OLED screen, which is absolutely gorgeous. The overall design is sleek and modern, mainly black with chrome accents on the buttons and hematite around the edges of the device.
The battery cover on the back is basically black, but it has really cool red accents that show up more depending on how they catch the light. It’s a subtle effect, nothing too over-the-top or cheesy, but just different enough to set the Omnia II apart from the crowd of similar-looking devices. The top of the back panel is where you’ll find the lens for the 5.0 megapixel camera with flash and video capture capabilities. More >
Samsung Fascinate
Feb 24th
BUILD & DESIGN
TheSamsung Fascinate seems to have beenat firstconfused for an AppleiPhone, but then turned around so thatit offers an exciting opinion that it is very much not an iPhone.
Overall, there’s no creak or bend to the Fascinate. But I have this weird feeling that it might be a bit too slick. Many times after sliding it into my pocket, I flat out forgot that it was there. Some other people that I asked about it expressed similar concerns, but were overall impressed with the weight and design.
Screen
As with many smartphones these days, everything starts with the screen, and the Fascinate doesn’t disappoint. The 4-inch WVGA (800 x 480) display is bright and clear in most situations, taking solid advantage of the Super AMOLED screen technology which is both thinner and gives off some truer blacks than other types of screens.
I did notice though that the default (and adjusted) brightness levels were noticeably lower than that of the Epic 4G (the Sprint variant of the Samsung Galaxy S). I’m not exactly sure if this is a manufacturing issue, or a conscious decision on Verizon’s part in order to eek out a bit more life from the Fascinate
An improvement seems to have been made with the screen’s refresh rate, though. With other Galaxy variants, I noticed just a little bit in the way of screen lag with gestures, but not so with the Fascinate. And there was even a bit of an improvement after a recent system update in terms of how fast touches and gestures register.
The screen is not a fingerprint magnet. Most taps on the display are acknowledged by an audible “pop”, but you can turn this off if you wish. More >
