Samsung Mythic a897 Review
Sep 8th
If the Samsung Mythic came for AT&T in November 2008 it wold be sold off like hot cakes. TouchWiz UI Samsung was bright and fun, was responding on the phone and its data plan will cost half the iPhone’s. After all, the cost of a phone is not only the up-front purchase price, but the current plan price on a two-year contract. It was one of the first touchscreen phones to mobile TV, have the $10/per month digital TV subscriptions, which is broadcast over the air and not via the phone’s data connection. If you are lucky enough to have live in a service area FLO TV, you could see better video quality than YouTube or AT&T’s streaming video could provide the time.
Since then we have the lower end Samsung Solstice, which could not dethrone the eternity and now the Samsung Mythic, we would say is to had the contract for the replacement of the iconic Eternity. As eternity is Samsung’s TouchWiz user interface, it is still intuitive, but after more than a year has us a little old. However, it is one of the better grade interfaces on a feature phone and there is little to no learning curve when switching from an older model.

The resolution is 360 x 640 pixels and measures 3.3″ increases, a significant improvement compared to the eternity and the solstice. It’s not a super-vivid AMOLED display like the Samsung Impression TouchWiz phone with QWERTY keyboard, however. It is also capacitively as the iPhone 3G. This means that it is not as sensitive or react, but under resistive screens, it is very good. And even better, it works with your finger nails and gloves.
New phones always more expensive, so the Mythic costs more than the earlier impression that Mythic probably suggests, if you do not want Mobile TV, and it is the same as the 16 gig iPhone 3G costs. We expect that the price will fall, and as always 3rd party dealers is the phone for less, making it mandatory to offer. Our only niggle with the Mythic is that it is not as lively as ever, something difficult to forgive in a feature phone.

The Mythic has a very good call quality over AT&T’s 3G network and the earpiece is louder than the average. The rear-facing mono speaker is loud and clear. The Mythic is a quad-band GSM mobile phone world and it’s a 3G world phone with HSDPA on AT&T’s bands and 2100 MHz for Europe and Asia. The phone has speed dial and Nuance voice command.
Other features include a GPS with AT&T Navigator, a music player (such as the Eternity), support for AT&T’s streaming video that plan with their data, a video player, the most popular formats such as WMV and MPEG4, a WAP browser, and handle can be added works a full-featured HTML browser used by the Samsung on WebKit (the same browser engine in the iPhone and Palm Pre) develops’ s. While the browser can not on the iPhone is in terms of rendering speed and finger control to compare, it is pretty good by phone standards, and the function can handle full desktop sites.

The Samsung Mythic is a nice feature touch-screen phone, and given their lack of competition on AT&T, it is among the best. If you want a touch screen phone, but not want the more expensive smart phone or iPhone data plan that Mythic is a full-choice, if we can do for his impression Samsung AMOLED display and QWERTY keyboard choose. But if you do not want the keyboard and added much of the impression or if you want, mobile TV, the Mythic it is. We just wish it was a little peppi.

Sony Ericsson W518a Review
Sep 3rd
The Sony Ericsson W518a Walkman phone is longing for fans, the shape of a flip. Even if AT & T has stayed largely from high-end Walkman phones like the W995a they continue the love for mid-tier Walkman phones. The W518a has control Sony Ericsson’s signature XrossMediaBar (pronounced Cross Media Bar) Media Player UI, Walkman player 3.0, Bluetooth A2DP, an FM radio and gestures. The quad-band GSM phone has AT & T’s 3G HSDPA bands and works with AT & T’s services, including CV on-demand video, Video Share video calling, AT & T Navigator for GPS navigation and music downloads over the air. The flip phone is very slim and has a 3.2 megapixel camera with video capture function, Facebook integration and the very capable Netfront web browser. We love the music and video playback offers performance, although we can not dig the camera quality.
Design and Ergonomics
The Sony Ericsson W518a is a good-looking flip phone, so it looks better in person than in photos. It has a shiny dark gray cover and a smooth black back. The front cover is brilliantly low key and not one fingerprint-loving piano finish. Measuring 3.7 x 1.9 x 0.6 inches with the flip closed is the Walkman phone is very thin. The phone has a small display, touch-sensitive control music playback and built-in camera on the door and the rear speakers burn on the back. The 2.2-inch QVGA display supports 262k colors, the most important, and it is very useful in the sunlight. The Sony Ericsson has a Moto RAZR-like flat keyboard which is very challenging for mobile gamers, as the number keys is to travel less. Menu includes two shoulder buttons menu keys, call send and end call buttons, menus and buttons, cancel flank the D-Pad. The menu buttons are so flat as the number keys and the D-Pad center button is a respectable size by one very narrow ring, which surrounded a 4-way d-pad works.
The SIM card and Memory Stick Micro (M2) card slots are living below the battery cover. You must remove the battery to access the SIM card slot, but the M2 slot is accessible without removing the battery. The W518a has a volume rocker and keylock slider on the right side and the Sony Ericsson proprietary charging/syncing port (Fast Port-style) on the left side.
Phone and messaging features
The Sony Ericsson W518a is a quad-band GSM phone with 3G HSDPA World 3.6 Mbps on the 850/1900/2100 MHz bands. The 3G bands make the phone work on AT & T’s 3G network in the U.S. and in Europe. The 3G bands will not have to work on 3G network of T-Mobile in the U.S. The phone’s reception is only average. It loses, occasionally, in areas with decent 3G coverage 3G. The phone never let fall a call and has very good voice quality on both incoming and outgoing ends. Data speed via HSDPA 3G feels fast, and the load time for Web pages and video clips CV is very reasonable. If you’re’s 3G coverage area in AT & T, Sony Ericsson, you can also make video calls via AT & T’s Video Share service.

The contacts database on the Sony Ericsson up to 1000 contacts with up to 7,000 numbers. You can also have nine speed dial numbers. The phone also comes with Voice Command software, but also with the Sony Ericsson C905a Cyber-shot to AT & T, it requires you to record voice tags. Again, as the C905a, we experienced an error if the volume is for the beep that signals that the phone is ready to listen for a command, so low that we could not hear, unless the listener against our ear was in a very quiet room. But when we recorded the voice tags, the phone worked well in voice dialing.
The Sony Ericsson W518a has the usual messaging support, including SMS, video, image and sound messaging and Web-based IM (AIM, Windows Live and Yahoo Messenger). The W518a Walkman phone comes with the NetFront web browser that a full HTML pages with images and layout can display intact. The browser is really impressive, with desktop display options, a cursor, Javascript dHTML support and more.
It was interesting that AT & T added a Walkman phone, as one of its mobile social networking, but Facebook fans will get an integrated application on the W518a. Even if you can just use the nice Web browser to visit and update your Facebook page, is the integration of something extra: if you will scroll back to “update in standby”, your friend updates over the phone standby screen. There is also a Facebook client on the phone, but strangely, only shows you can update your own Facebook page but not your friend updates.
The Sony Ericsson W518a has aGPS, with the AT & T Navigator works for turn-by-turn navigation and voice guidance. The GPS receives accurate corrections in most cases, but significantly behind the real-time position. Route recalculations are fast and the speakerphone is loud enough to overcome to road noise for spoken instructions. Standard features include AT & T Navigator POI (Points of Interest), transport and re-routing. AT & T Navigator is not free, but you have 30 days to try it for free.

Multimedia
True to its name, is the W518a is a very strong music phone and once you have all the right accessories in hand, the Walkman phone offers a complete music on the go. The Sony Ericsson has known both the XrossMediaBar (XMB) user interface (on the PS3, PSP, Sony TVs and some notebooks) and the latest Walkman Player 3.0 software item. The music player supports the accelerometer, album art and Mega Bass. When you control a fan of gestures, you will be pleased with the W518a: You can use the phone to fast forward and rewind to change tracks, volume, and to shake even snooze alarm by waving your hand in front of the camera lens. The gesture is to control and you can respond on or off. The music player can play MP3, WMA and AAC files. We tested songs from iTunes and everything worked well. We also tested audio books and podcasts on your Sony Ericsson and they worked well. You can find quite a few applications of the music player provided some of Sony Ericsson, others include AT & T. This application/service include TrackID (to identify tracks on the phone), MusicID (to identify music from radio), XM Radio and SensMe types on the mood of the music is based. It’s also an FM radio with RDS on board, but AT & T does not include a wired headset, and you will need one, since it acts as an antenna. If you want to listen to FM radio, you have to buy the headset separately, and since it is the Sony Ericsson Fast Port connector style headset it is not the easiest or cheapest to find. A curious omission of a Walkman phone. Fortunately, if you operate a stereo headset from an older Sony Ericsson phone that will.
You can play music through the phone’s built in speaker, a wired stereo headset (none resumed in the package) or via Bluetooth A2DP stereo headset. The speakerphone on the W518a is decent. The audio quality can not compete with the stereo speakers on the W995a, but it’s not so bad, unless you turn the volume too high. The speaker sounds blown a little when the volume is high, although the speakerphone is quite loud, and you do not really need to get it to max. Sounded really good music via Bluetooth stereo headset with strong bass and clear sound.
How many phones from Sony Ericsson W518a has an M2 card slot for music storage and the storage of other media content. You can also sync music via USB or Bluetooth. Sony Ericsson PC Suite software to sync free, but not the W518a package included a USB cable. You can purchase the USB data cable from the AT & T separately, and it is the same cable with most Sony Ericsson phones (Fast Port USB used).
While the Sony Ericsson W518a is not a video-centric phone, it offers a surprisingly good video experience. The phone accepts AT & T’s CV on-demand streaming video with ease. Both short clips and full length TV programs and games smoothly on Look Sharp 3G. If you are in the free video content, you can play the YouTube video phone on the mobile site YouTube. YouTube videos play less smoothly than the CV video and audio not sound so full.

Camera
The Sony Ericsson W518a has a 3.2 megapixel camera with fixed focus lens and flash. The camera lens lives under a cheap plastic cover that easily schmeared hand the fat, and he begins Sun Glare Lens Flare causes. Still pictures are taken with the W518a is not impressive indoor and outdoor scenes have noticeable noise, which you should not be seen in a 3.2-megapixel camera phone, light objects often have white-out in different lighting conditions, and there are a faint white haze near the edges of the photo. But if you just need to cover the right lighting and the lens is clean, sharp pictures could capture a few with good color balance. The camera software on the Sony Ericsson offers the usual settings like white balance, effects, self timer, image quality, night mode and much more.
The W518a can also record video with sound in QVGA resolution of 320 x 240 at 15fps. You can record short videos MMS or save long videos on the M2 card or on the phone. Video clips look smooth and sound is in sync with video. appear without flash, videos caught in a dark room dark. Fortunately, there is a night mode Video recording option, which illuminate the scene is not, but reduces contrast.

Battery Life
The Sony Ericsson W518a has a rechargeable Li-Ion battery, which the user is replaceable. The battery (model BST-39) 900 mAh, and the claimed talk time is 4 hours. The claimed standby is about 16 days and in our tests, which seemed to be on target. The battery life was considerably shorter, as we saw CV, the GPS and downloaded apps used over the air.
Verdict
We finally get a flip Walkman phone from AT & T and it does not disappoint as a music phone. The Walkman player 3.0 is the latest music playback quality: album art, accelerometer support, added TrackID, gesture control and the SensMe playlist. It plays audio books and podcasts and video playback via CV is very smooth. The phone has a speaker and the sound of music via Bluetooth A2DP stereo well. It is a shame that AT & T not included wired headset that works with the Sony Ericsson proprietary interface is not just for music playback, but also for the FM radio. GPS with AT & T Navigator and Facebook integration for users who need them comfortable. The NetFront browser provides more smarts to a feature phone at that level. The camera is a disappointment, good for us that AT & T Sony Ericsson C905a Camera Phone with 8.1-release-megapixel camera at the same time for those who are more than music photo buffs Buffs.

BlackBerry Torch 9800 Review
Aug 19th
If you have a product that have been successful for several years, but has fallen somewhat behind the times, it can be difficult to figure out what to change and what to leave alone. With the new BlackBerry 9800 Smartphone Torch, RIM seems this line to navigate successfully. While it is unlikely that the torch for the consumer away from their iPhone and Google Android devices are characterized at least BlackBerry users are not left completely in the dust.
The new BlackBerry smartphone features a 3.2in, 480×360 resolution touch display. While there is clear and quite sharp, the BlackBerry 9800 Torch is not really comparable to the display with the leading consumer smart phones – for example, offers the iPhone is 3.5 inches 4 shows a 960×640 resolution, while the Google Android-running Motorola Droid X has an even larger 4.3-in display with a resolution of 854×480.
On the other side is worth the BlackBerry 9800 Torch 162g, about the same weight as the Droid X, and is 61x14x112mm at about the same size as the iPhone 4th We found it very comfortable to handle and use, and it is small enough to drop in a shirt pocket without a second thought.
The phone features a vertical slide-out keyboard – it makes for a length of 147mm when opened – that still has the rounded look and small but well-developed key characteristic of BlackBerry devices. We found the BlackBerry 9800 Torch the buttons a bit too small for comfort, but is typical for BlackBerry, we were able to “thumb-type” short messages with relative ease. Current BlackBerry users should be pleased.

The BlackBerry 9800 Torch includes four hard keys, including one start and one to a call – we have often wished end. Other features include a 5-megapixel camera, Wi-Fi 802.11b/g/n with 3G broadband, a 4 GB microSD flash card, 512MB RAM and 4GB of built-in memory.
The new BlackBerry OS 6 is elegant and simple to use and understand. All of your applications on a “tray” that can be raised or lowered are on your home screen. Their main applications are represented by icons on the home screen (you can also icons for individual contacts, and bookmarks). Swipe left and right you will see on other screens, including the favorites and the newest (most recently used applications).
One of the new OS features is the universal search. Just start, and the BlackBerry 9800 Torch is for applications and information on and off the phone that one could look to fit. For example, we have tried typing “weather” and got an application icons for “weather” and links to weather sites. We started typing the name “Michael” and by the third letter, we saw relevant news and contacts.
Another feature that really work well in our tests, the BlackBerry 9800 Torch the universal inbox. All e-mail, social network messages, etc. are displayed on a screen – touch on a particular message, and it opens in the application relevant to this message. Hit the Back button, and you are back in the Inbox. Sideways swipe, and you have access to your RSS feeds.

Samsung Impression a877 Review
Aug 12th
While home theater buffs still wring their hands and had their bank accounts in anticipation of OLED technology is large enough to hang in the living room, at the age of OLED already on the mobile world. Samsung is not the first manufacturer to drop a full-color OLED panels in a mobile phone, but given the widespread availability and price ($ 199 to AT & T with contract) the Impression that it is the first one you actually have could be a shot at his own hide here in the U.S. But organic light on phones in the same way they screen TVs?
Yes. From the moment you open the impression that flip, it’s pretty obvious that something else is fire under the bright 3.2-inch screen on the phone. The colors – reds and yellows seem above all – vibrant and lively than the ones you’ve seen on conventional LCD displays, Samsung has included a variety of saturated backgrounds, show really can do it. Increase the brightness to its max ups the wow factor even more, without shaking off even a hint of sunlight and helps wash out, too. Despite its rich color reproduction is the 240 x 400 resolution on the display only appropriate, it is less a feeling than clear dense LCDs in phones like the HTC Touch Diamond.

Sony has this glittering diamonds from a display in a relatively Swank setting bed: a chrome-trimmed, curved edge slider with full QWERTY keyboard hidden inside. The sliding mechanism for easy kicks, and we particularly liked the large, rubbery feeling keyboard with a satisfying click with each keystroke and returns took almost no time to acclimatise. This is the type of keyboard you use to memorize inactive tap a page long e-mail without it.
is used with a capacitive touch screen (the guy on the iPhone) makes the impression of feeling more sensitive and more agile than clumsy resistive screens, but inevitable without enthusiasm, scrolling still feels like a chore that you need endless paw on the screen. Haptic feedback, which buzz the phone when you press an icon does, makes a nice touch (literally), as well.
The call, back and end buttons to call on the face of the phone all make navigation a breeze, but we were not the slim access key likes and release button on the sides, the jab zero feedback, and sometimes requires a fingernail to be delivered . On the other hand, is a very important trigger that brings up a “ready-to-shoot camera in less than two seconds is a clear winner – as are the relatively high-quality recordings from the 3.0-megapixel shooter.
If there lurked a big catch in all this, it is the relatively sluggish Windows Mobile 6.1 operating system with its own Samsung TouchWiz interface built over the top. While it is relatively fast clip together, the interface does not make much sense, for the first time user and will probably not after it for a while, either. exhausted, you have to pull out a sliding carousel widgets from them for a kind of mobile desktop that a proper adjustment is experimental, but ends in a chaotic mess after the relatively narrow space is at your disposal.

Connectivity comes via the impression AT & T Media Net, which offers a full HTML browser, e-mail, video from CNN to South Park, and all the other props you would expect to 3G speed. (Oddly, there is no option for Wi-Fi.) Loaded, the browser page rather quickly, even if a little awkward to navigate, and videos were felt quickly in the queue as well, even if it has plenty of blocky compression for them to . show
Each phone is running at the $ 199 price point to AT & T to a direct competitor to the iPhone, which gives the impression of a hard sell, even when otherwise well-rounded device. Why even consider it, that in addition to Goliath? If you do not need the flexibility provided by well-groomed app Apple’s Store, is the impression of small, has a much nicer screen, a killer keyboard and Media Net plans cost $ 15 per month instead of $ 30 for a real data-rate . That is, we have our fingers crossed still for Samsung rolling out a mobile phone just as the impression, but I think with Android on board, instead of Windows Mobile – I7500, with a keyboard.

The LG Vu was one of the first devices to AT & T Mobile TV service feature when it was launched two years ago. The Vu comes with an attractive 3-inch display and a further strengthening of the television for the phone, there is also a pull-out antenna. But still the design of the phone was a bit more, and so we wanted it had a successor, and guess what we have. Yes, the AT & T and LG have finally decided to introduce the successor to the LG Vu and call it the LG Vu Plus. The FE Plus offers even AT & T Mobile TV, but everything from the phone away, its antenna. But the loss of the antenna brings in the slide-out QWERTY keyboard and get 3G HSDPA speeds and improved camera.
Although the LG Vu Plus looks almost identical to its predecessor, but the phone is actually quite different. The FE Plus measures 2.1 inches wide and 4.31 cm long and 0.6 inches thick, the Vu Plus a bit longer than his predecessor, and while it is also a bit thicker than Vu. Although the thickness of the phone for a good reason, and this is the QWERTY keyboard. Weighing 3.95 ounces of Vu Plus is also a bit heavier than the FE. The overall look of the phone is quite blocky, but it has rounded edges that give a comfortable feeling in the hand.
Like the original Vu, LG Vu, the Plus also comes with a 3-inch display, and the good news is that its capacitive touch screen responds here and therefore respond quickly to our fingers. Although it would have been even better had we have made a more solid material glass instead of plastic, but still carried the display properly for most of our operation. How many of the other phones, also enables you to knocking sound or vibration, or tactile feedback to your fingers as you add, and even the intensity of the vibrations.
The display appears bright and crisp here, courtesy support its 240 400 pixel native resolution and 262,000 color. The color of size, the brightness of the screen is the backlight timer and fonts for the display can be adjusted easily. Like most of the touch-screen phones on the market, the LG Vu Plus, you can also individually screens of the home phone. As a fact, you receive up to three customizable home screen.

The dialer for the phone features a large spacious virtual keyboard shortcuts for the speakerphone and a link for new text message. You can effortlessly for the practical use T9 text input keyboard messages, but we love in the person with physical keyboard for this. The main menu structure for the phone is almost identical to other LG touch screen phones, and is divided into four categories, multimedia, phone, settings, and my order.
Located in the mobile phone is three physical buttons: the Back Clear button, the Talk button and the Power End key. Slide the display to the right and you will receive a full four-row QWERTY keyboard to be seen. Although the keys are here raise tad over the surface, but still we have to use our fingernails to type, as most of the buttons are lined up infinitely close together. Again, the buttons are a little stiffer than we want, but we were still able to type, without many errors, and a special thing that we liked here was a committed. Com key on the keyboard.
The volume rocker and Task Manager button on the left spine of the phone position, while the microSD card slot, camera button, a screen lock button are located on the right. The charger headset jack is positioned on the top of the phone, and the LED flash and lens are as usual at the rear end of the phone.

The LG Vu Plus delivered respectable amount of signal strength and 3G network coverage to test our capability. The call quality was somewhat decent, although we can not say that it was great. We could hear our callers clearly on our side, even if her voice had a hard TAD quality. We also learned a bit of static or background noise here.
Our interviewees reported a bit of quality in our Gritty voice. Although she said it was significant and tinny, they found that we were on a phone. She also reported a little background noise. Although none of the problems had to be as big as a deal breaker. The same was the result of the speakerphone quality, apart from a little more echo effect. The LG Vu is a plus rated talk time of 3 hours and standby time of 12 days for the battery.
The LG Vu Plus, despite some problems of design with the phone, we think that the FE plus a fully charged messaging device with the bonus live mobile TV.
