I have dabbled in Motorolas and LGs but I will ALWAYS go back to Samsung. This phone is great. Fast loading and great reception and for how much it handles the battery life is pretty nice too (I can get about 3 days worth, I don't talk on it very much but I text alot and use the music player most of the day) I love how easy it is to share music, ringtones and pictures between the phone and my PC. It's true while texting there is a small fraction of a second of delay between pressing the buttons and the letters showing up on the screen but if you're looking at what your typing it shouldnt bother you, I text on it at full speed just fine. the ONLY reason i dont give it a 5 out of 5 is the camera. For some reason when using the single shot, normal camera feature it takes about 2 seconds between clicking the button and when the pic actually takes. I haven't been able to get a single good shot of my kids, since they're so squirmy. The multi shot and video features, however, work great.Read full review
This is a great phone. Most of the reviews don't give it its deserved praise. I've been a smartphone/Windows mobile customer for years (2 HP Ipaqs, LG Incite, Audiovox 2125, Cingular 8125, and the Blackjack II) and I must say that the Blackjack II has been the most stable. I would give it a 5 out of 5 but Windows operating systems are just too unstable. The camera works fine. Its a phone so to compare the quality to a real camera is silly. Not sure why anyone would allow the camera quality of a phone to be a deal breaker. Bluetooth connected easily to my car, connecting to the internet was flawless. I probably sent more emails with my phone then texts. I purchased applications over the internet and had no problems. Third party applications installed easily and always worked. Texting is easy, sending MMS messages is easy and the compact size makes it very portable. I've dropped this phone several times and never had any problems with it. I did drop it in a puddle of water once and ruined it but that was my fault not the phones. In conclusion, I loved it. If you are use to touchscreens PDA's you may not like the non-touch screen functionality but if thats not a problem, you will love this phone.Read full review
This phone is a few years old. I bought it used off ebay because my phone died and I am due for a upgrade in a month. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles that the new phones that came out in the last year or two have but it does just about everything you need from a phone. Qwerty keyboard makes it really easy to text and email. Windows mobile is a pretty solid operating system for the PC user. The 2mp camera takes good photos. Its also light, fast, and user friendly. I have had been using it for about a week and its been great. Its definitely not a top of the line phone but if you are looking for a cheap replacement/upgrade for a smartphone its price point is great.
The original Samsung SGH-i607 BlackJack was a great phone that was hampered by pretty poor battery life, like many of the thin QWERTY equipped smartphones of the past. In spite of that issue, the BlackJack was still a very popular cell phone for AT&T (then Cingular). This time around, Samsung has addressed the battery issue and added a few new goodies to the mix, like a d-pad that serves double duty as a scroll wheel. The resulting device is a millimeter or two bigger in height and width, and an extra 10g heavier, but those minor tradeoffs are well worth the results. The new SGH-i617 features the same basic form factor and design as the original BlackJack. The phone's flat block shape tapers down at the bottom, giving the phone a pleasing look and an equally pleasing feel in the hand. The lines used by Samsung's designers are all very clean and soft, with the only exceptions being the squared corners on the buttons found in the d-pad control cluster beneath the display. New for the BlackJack II is the piano black glossy finish on the cover, which makes the phone something that any CSI investigator would love to find at a crime scene. It is worth noting that the wine red version has a textured back cover that doesn't show fingerprints, but it still has a glossy front cover. The display on the BlackJack II has a 2.4" screen that can render 65,000 colors. This QVGA resolution screen is crisp and colorful, and can be set to any one of 5 brightness levels, all of which I found to be quite workable. It has an almost paper-like appearance to it that I just love. The aforementioned control keys and d-pad all work quite well and are attractively designed. The BlackJack II's d-pad scroll function works better than the one found on the T-Mobile Shadow that we recently reviewed, and proved itself to be quite useful. I do think that it would work even better if it had a more fingertip grabbing radial pattern on it instead of its concentric circles design, which doesn't provide enough grip for dry and cold wintertime fingers. The d-pad isn't the only thing that lacks a bit of grip on the SGH-i617. The phone's otherwise stellar QWERTY keyboard's keys have the same glossy surface as the rest of the device, something that makes them a bit slick at times. The older BlackJack didn't have that problem, though it did suffer from a strange number key layout that has been fixed on the new model. The new BlackJack II also has a couple of additional shortcuts keys that I find quite handy. Overall, it is an exceedingly good keyboard, it just could have been a tad bit better if it had kept the old design's matte finish. The remainder of the device is pretty simple. A nicely shaped volume rocker control is found at the top of the left edge of the phone, and the multi-purpose power/data/headset port is located directly beneath it. I would have preferred for this port to have been on the bottom of the device, though, as side-mounted headsets are a real problem in pockets. A power button is located on the top of the device, which I like since it also calls up the Quick List menu. A small multi-color status LED is located nearby. It provides information about charging and new events, like received messages. The right edge of the phone is bare except for the microSD slot, and the nicely sculpted back cover of the phone bulges out where the 2 megapixel camera is located. Otherwise, the rear cover is plain except for the subtle SamsungRead full review
the behold is a nice little phone. it has a bright responsive touch screen. nice stock apps. average processing speed. a decent battery life. there are a few annoyances with it though. the automatic screen lock will turn on while you are watching videos. there aren't a whole lot of options for how long the screen stays bright. and the screen lock keeps unlocking while in my pocket somehow, and since the screen is so responsive, my pocket can do things like access messaging and type texts like awwwwwwwwww wwwwwwwwaarq. it also keeps going into airplane mode, and silent mode, neither of which are helpful when people call or text. i like the phone, but there are definitely better out there.
