Samsung U900 review
Network and connections
A high-quality phone presented by the Korean company Samsung. The U900 is equipped with a truly excellent reception system, with GSM Triband support on frequencies of 900, 1800 and 1900 MHz; moreover it is capable of operating in Dual Mode by taking advantage of the UMTS network. As far as wireless connectivity is concerned, you can rely on Bluetooth to exchange files with other compatible devices. Or again, the USB 2.0 cable allows direct synchronization with a PC. It's worth noting its readiness for browsing the Web, thanks to the integrated modem and HSDPA support for fast packet data traffic.
Design and features
The exterior look of this device is classy, with satin-finish materials to give a good feel to the touch. The opening is sliding, with vertical movement, revealing a standard numeric keypad inside. The lines are rounded, to ensure greater ergonomics and a solid grip. On the front there is the large 2.2-inch TFT screen, equipped with Touch Screen technology and display of up to 16 million colors. The dimensions have been kept fairly compact, precisely to favor comfort: 13.2 mm thick, for 112 grams of weight. Inside the sales package you can find a USB data cable and a stereo headset.
Main features
Starting with the features dedicated to voice, we can find the speakerphone, the voice recorder and support for multiconference and video calling. There's no shortage of the most common management features, such as a synchronized address book and calendar, or the notepad for writing notes and memos. The device is equipped with a special Touch technology pad, which allows you to quickly manage every operation. It is also possible to easily write SMS and multimedia messages, or check E-mail.
Entertainment and multimedia
An absolutely important note of merit goes to the multimedia aspect. The Samsung U900 is in fact equipped with a 5 megapixel camera, which allows you to take extremely high-quality photographs, thanks also to the 4X Zoom and the built-in Flash. The PictBridge software allows you to share and print images directly on the Internet. The available memory is generous, with 128 MB further expandable via microSD memory cards. This way you can carry your favorite music in your pocket, as well as video files in various formats, to be easily played through the media player. Moreover, the U900 is equipped with an AM/FM frequency receiver.
