Guide Review - Samsung SYNC Review

The Samsung SYNC is one of Samsung's increasing line of slim cell phones, inspired by the success of the Motorola RAZR. Feature-rich, it has: touch-sensitive media player keys on the flip cover, large and color-rich inside display, a very good keypad, given the thin form factor and a pretty good picture quality. The sound coming out of the speakerphone was louder than average, a good thing, and of a fair quality. People I called liked the sound of it: no echo, almost as if I wasn't using a speakerphone. I also appreciated that the antenna is at the bottom of the whole phone, so you can hold it comfortably without obstructing the antenna.

The external display isn't the prettiest but I suspect it is an OLED, thus sucking less battery power.
