This technical Samsung a800 review is based on a computer algorithm, it is not based on a hands-on review. It outlines its best and weakest sides so that you make a well-informed decision.
The Good:
- Talk Time: 240 minutes of talking time. It is good enough! (score: 16/20)
- Phone Book: It can store up to 500 phone book entries, which is quite good! (score: 20/20)

- Camera: It features an above average camera: 2-megapixel (score: 10/10)
The Not-So-Good:

- Stand-by Time: ? unknown hours of stand-by time. Not quite sufficient for most users, in my opinion. (score: 4/20)
- Speakerphone: It does not seem to include a speakerphone, which would be useful in some situations. (Find phones with a speakerphone) (score: 0/10)
