Samsung i620

Samsung i620 is a stylish (to some!), neat and relatively compact slider phone, plus it runs on Windows Mobile 6 Standard. The full QWERTY hardware keyboard brings even more functionality to the smartphone. The sensor keys and the useful D-pad wheel help a lot when dealing with the address book, the menus and especially with the gallery images.

Interestingly enough, even before the Samsung i620 was out, it has already got a successor in the face of Samsung i640. You can call it a bigger brother if you want. With double the HSDPA download speed and quad band GSM support the main (shall we say, only) improvements, the only thing that can make you consider it are the more moderate looks. Shiny white is not our favorite color - to put it that way.

Truth be told though, the absence of Wi-Fi in both i620 and i640 is one of the major drawbacks of the phone, if not a deal breaker.

In the end - it all boils down to this: the Samsung i620 doesn't offer high-end features but offers excellent implementation of the features that are currently on-board. As such it will have a really hard time coping with Symbian bullies out there.
