Iphone 3G Killer

Review Date: July 13, 2009

Reviewer: Hans As, NY, USA

I bought this phone here in the Middle East and all i can say is WOW. This definitely exceeds my expectation. I was choosing between an Iphone 3G, Blackberry Bold, Nokia N97 and the new Jet. All features of the 3 competitors have distinct features which are all included in the new Samsung Jet. The price is being offered is not cheap and not to expensive too. Great and photos being taken even at night time. Have a bright flash and hd quality sounds and video. See technical specs for more details. Wi-fi Bluetooth 5MP Camera (dual) 800Mhz Processor Edge, HDSPA, GPRS 3.1 WVGA AMOLED display MPEG 4 & Divx video (no need to convert 2GB built in (till 16GB micro SD) Music Player FM Radio Great Games Thickness is same as the Ipod Touch 2nd Gen smaller than Iphone Exchange Server Email MMS Video call [...] EVERYTHING YOU NEED IN A PHONE IS HERE !!!

LOVE my samsung jet!

My verizon wireless contract expired in april of 2009 so I have been searching all over the web for a new phone. I've been wanting to try a touch screen phone for the longest time. I was tempted to buy the iphone several times but the iphone always seemed so overrated for me. I also almost bought the Samsung Memoir from tmobile but I did not like how thick it was. So, I waited a couple more months to see if any of the companies would release more touchscreen phones that would meet my wants and needs. Finally I found the Samsung Jet. I decided to go with an unlocked phone because I do not want to be contracted into a mandatory 30 dollars a month data plan for 2 years. If I got a decent plan (around 50 bucks a month) plus the 30 dollar data plan, it would cost me around 2000 bucks(720for data plan and 1200regular bill) in 2 years just on cell phone bills!!! I do not live in an area that requires me to occupy/entertain myself while I'm out and about. I'm either at home or work, which has computers, driving or out with friends. None of my daily activities require me to surf the internet on my cell phone. Thats what computers are for! Anywho, I bought this phone from a reputable dealer that I found online. I called them to make sure that the phone would work in the US with a sim card from AT&T or TMOBILE. I've had this phone for about a week now and everything is working great. The amoled screen is amazingly bright and clear. The haptic feedback feature is amazing too. Every time I use my screen, it vibrates back meaning that its recognizing my touch. Great simple applications in the phone also. Speakers work great, the FM radio works great, sound quality is great, the Photos are great and also has a good video recording function. This is NOT A SMART PHONE, but anybody who wants a touchscreen phone with all the great functions and qualities like me will love and enjoy the Samsung Jet.

Excellent Phone that Definitly exceeds expectations

So far, this is the best phone i have ever had. I have used Iphones before and I think they are really great, being their only problem it's size. This is way more carry friendly. It is a tall phone, but it is also really thin, so you can put in your pocket and barely notice it. Here is a list of the things i like and i don't like about it. Pros: - Small size (considering all the stuff it can do). Way better than any competing smart phone - Video player: WOW, really amazing. The amoled screen really makes the videos look spectacular. I put my sony laptop side by side running the same video as my phone and it looks way better on the phone. And the best part is that the videos run flawlessly, no slowdowns nor hiccups at all (this is the only part were you really appreciate the fast processor on this phone) - No Need to convert videos. YES, finally you don't have to dedicate a hole day converting videos to put on your phone. Any AVI videos you like on your phone? Just connect USB and freely transfer them to your phone - Screen is really responsive. It's different than an Iphone screen, but really no complaints - Excellent, really excellent in call quality. - WiFi and Bluetooh connections are very easy to access and to turn on and off as desired (In other phones this are usually buried in the menus) - Pictures look amazing (again for the great screen) - Camera quality is good for a phone. The quality of this camera is on par with that of the iphone 3GS, but this phone has added bonuses that makes it one of the must fun to use camera-phones. The smile shutter works how it is supposed to, there is a panoramic mode, were you move the phone around in one direction and it takes really wide photos (you can take amazing 200 degrees pictures). Great great flash - Really good internet browser. It is fast, specially over wifi, second only to the iphone (amazing browser the iphone has). But it has a huge plus, that is the ability to play flash - I really like the convenience of the widgets and the 3 desktops to play with. I set myself an entertaining desktop (with music player and video player), a web desktop (with youtube, google and weather report) and my third desktop is a connections desktops with Wifi and Bluetooh CONS: Not much to say here except this: - I still can't make real GPS work. There is google maps ant it works great, but i mean the real GPS. The GPS software is not pre-installed on the phone and you have to look for yourself how to install it. - The email works really good (Shame on free yahoo mail service that doesn't provide POP nor IMAP to use on clients, so i had to change to gmail). But there is one only thing. If you, phone, every 30 min check my email and see that there is not any new mail, i don't need a message every 30 min telling me that i don't have new mails. Please tell me only when I have new mails! - The screen on landscape mode is a pain to use. That's because my fingers are too big to those small rectangles. I mean, the screen is really sensitive, and is really easy to touch the letters next to the one you intended. I did a test and i wrote almost twice as fast with keyboard on vertical stance and the dictionary on (as opposed to landscape) In conclusion, I really recommend this phone. Extremely happy with my purchase.

Overall, this phone is quite responsive and pocketable. The interface reacts quickly despite being a resistive type touch screen. Also is a great video and mp3 player. However, on the software side it falls short. The pc software does not recognize the phone when you try to back it up, and the firmware cannot be updated as well-also, when you watch a video and turn the phone to its side for landscape viewing it is okay, but when turn it to its other landscape side the video is displayed upside down. I found that the browser also has trouble rendering some popular websites correctly. Finally, the phone can only record video and voice using the amr codec which results in very disappointing low quality sound recordings. Worldwide, this phone sells for about 450-500usd as of 7/09.
