Samsung Soul SGH-U900 - ZDNet

Samsung-Soul-SGH-U900-ZDNet.jpg

ZDNet have published a review of the Samsung Soul SGH-U900 (unlocked) multimedia handset. 'Samsung loves its slider phones, so it's not surprising the company chose such a model for the Soul. But while many slider phones have flimsy, generic designs with unimaginative controls, the Soul takes a finer approach. The handset has a solid, firm feel in the hand and the slider mechanism is distinctly sturdy. The phone clicks into place in either position, and we could open and close it with one hand. Our only change would be the addition of a small thumb grip.

As it is, you have to place your thumb on the screen when opening the phone. Not only is the display slippery but you'll also end up leaving a visible thumbprint in its center. As an alternative, you can use the tapered bottom end of the phone as a grip. Like most slider phones, the Soul is decidedly thin (4.16 inches by 1.94 inches by 0.51 inch) and relatively lightweight (3.95 ounces), so it's quite portable. We also liked the phone's attractive chocolate-brown hue and its shiny metal sidings.'
