| lipps66's Full Review: Samsung SPH-i330 |
I convinced my wife that I needed to get a new gadget. This is what I purchased. This phone is freaking amazing.
I will start with the battery:
The phone comes with a small battery that has about 1 hour of talk time and will last you a day or so with just palm use. It does come with at the Sprint Store an extended life battery that gives 4 hours talk and lasts for days with playing games or organizing you life.
The phone itself has a good resolution color screen and its sleek ergonomic style is comfortable to use. It somehow seems to be quite durable (I have dropped it on carpet from almost 6 ft with no problem.)
The phone is ridiculously easy to use, you do not even need your stylus to press the buttons, and a finger will do. The volume adjustment is right at your fingertips, if you are right handed, and the clarity of reception is great.
The address book is synced with the phone so you can index the person to call hit the little call icon and you are there. It also stores all incoming, outgoing, and missed calls, so you will never miss a beat. You can set up to 9 speed dial numbers and also the same amount of voice activated dialing features. It is cool it will ask you with the touch of one button on the side "Who would you like to call," you speak the name or names and it dials you without a charge (like with some other plans).
It is a palm OS platform that is the only kind of handheld software I have used. It is all there, outlook, calendar, address book, expense, calculator, security, memo, to do lsit, voice memo's, and of course games. With the sprint package you get the following games, sub hunt, seven seas, ZIO golf, mummy, Othello, bejeweled, atomica, and alchemy. Bejeweled is one of the best games ever. You can download games from the net with ease and without many problems.
The Internet function, which is called Blazer, is great for a handheld in my opinion. It does not use frames, which is somewhat limiting, but with a strong signal it moves faster than my old Pentium chip computer.
Overall I think this thing is great!
