Review of the Samsung SGH i780 Online
Posted by Chris Leckness on 06/25/08 in Samsung
This is a great phone, I can personally vouch for that. I would really love to see it come to the US under AT&T or T-Mobile. There is a rumor swirling that it might indeed come to AT&T. I don’t know how strong that rumor is, but here is to hope. One of the reasons I couldn’t stick with the BlackJack I or II is the lack of a touchscreen. The BlackJack look and feel are awesome, but I just have to have my touchscreen. Well, aside from the cool navigation and the touchscreen, the Samsung SGH-i780 is more or less, a BlackJack II with Windows Mobile 6 Professional.
A blog on the other side of the pond called Mobile Tech Addicts has published good review of this phone that I had a chance to toy with a the Microsoft MVP Summit last March…
We all know that the Palm Treo 800w has a 320×320 screen, improving from the smallish 240×240 on previous Treo phones, but this device beat Palm to the punch.
Have a look at what Mobile Tech Addicts, Chris had to say…
This is without doubt the best Windows Mobile device I have ever used, and believe me when I say I have used a lot of them, from the innovative mouse D-Pad, brilliant Qwerty front facing keyboard, zippy menus and software extras its hard to find fault with it, but I will, the charging should be by mini USB, the headphone socket should be a standard 3.5mm, there should be Windows Mobile 6.1 update now and the stylus should not be telescopic. Apart from that I cannot think of anymore negatives and that is high praise indeed.

this is a nice device, but it seems odd to think it AND the Omnia would both arrive at at&t at the same time. were i a betting man, i’d bet this would arrive before the Omnia, to help keep the way clear sell iphones.
then again, it’s all about profit. if the apple is charging at&t more for the iphone than the omnia, maybe it can make economic sense for at&t to offer both the iphone and the omnia? and wither the diamond in all this with at&t? i’m sure the 199 price iphone price has an effect on htc’s merchandising options. if the iphone really does cost only 179 to build, that’s a challenge to keep up with.
