Smartphones these days can do almost anything. One can bet that a state of the art phone is going to cost a pretty penny. For those with limited funds they might have trouble finding a passable phone. But the Samsung SGH-A177 has just been released. Its an affordable phone with an amazing full QWERTY keyboard allowing for easy messaging.

The Samsung SGH-A177 has a simple design. Those tired of over the top models and outrageous colors might see the simplicity as a welcome change. Others who are used to the Swiss army knife nature of most phones today might be put off by it. The phone is a simple rectangular phone, with no flip or slide mechanism. There are 2 design flaws found on this phone that might sway people away. Firstly the plastic the phone is made out of simply doesn’t feel strong enough to withstand constant use. If you plan on purchasing this phone should also get a pouch or some kind of case. Also the screen is rather small. Despite the bright color display photos and games are going to appear slightly pixilated and muted. The best feature on this phone is obviously the full QWERTY keyboard. The keyboard was designed to make texting and sending long messages in instant message windows easy. They keys are slightly raised and there is a very satisfying click noise whenever you press a button.

This phone clearly lacks any of the features found on many of the heavy weight phones out there. The phone does come with a camera, instant message capabilities, and even Bluetooth. For some people this is all that they might need. The IM function and Bluetooth work well but the images captured on the camera are mediocre at best. Along with not being able to record any video the camera seems like an afterthought.

Despite the amazing text functions the actual phone performance can be improved upon. This phone has major volume issues. When using the speakerphone the person on the other end will sound incredibly low. Raising the volume wont help because they will just sound distorted and garbled. You should also place all your calls in a low noise area. The microphone will pick up a lot of background noise making you harder to hear and understand.

The Samsung SGH-A177 clearly is not a phone for everyone. If you wont miss watching videos, and surfing the web then consider buying this phone. But be cautious because the phones call performance is not that great.

The fact that you can download videos for iPhone these days is certainly something to be pleased about.

Indeed, the iPhone has given a totally new meaning to entertainment. Though it can be expensive, the iPhone has many advantages and features that make it worth the price. You can call or send text messages to friends, browse the internet, play games, listen to music, watch movies and videos, and so on, with just a single gadget.

That is not all; your iPhone is a mobile device that you can bring with you, too.

If you want to get the Samsung Eternity A867 Plus on November 4, 2008, you’re out of luck; AT&T had decided that it couldn’t deliver on that date as it had promised. However, as soon as the shipment gets here, it is promised that the Samsung Eternity A867 Plus will be on sale.

If you want to purchase this amazing little handset for its features, this wait will be worth it and it won’t dissapoint. Let’s take a look at some of the offerings:

The new handset will soon be available for purchase on the AT&T carrier. It will cost $99 but that is after you receive a $50 mail-in rebate. This cell phone is able to be customized with specially designed widgets. The Samsung Eternity has a large 3.2″ touch screen that has haptic support and this phone provides subtle vibration that confirms selections. The only drawback to the Samsung Eternity is that it features a black and chrome exterior. The only trouble with black is that it will show all the smudges.

The AT&T carrier will also be able to get the handset. It’ll cost you $99 after a $50 mail-in rebate, meaning your upfront cost (before rebate) is going to be $149. You can customize your cell phone with widgets that are specially designed for it. The handset has a 3.2-inch wide touchscreen, with haptic support. You’ll get a subtle vibration that will confirm your selections as well. It does have one slight drawback, in that the chrome and black exterior will show smudges and fingerprints.

The phone has a nice, clean look at first glance. The back cover is actually made of plastic although it feels like brushed metal. It is a bit disappointing that the camera lacks a portrait mirror or flash. The 3.5mm headphone jack located on the side does make it clear it is intended for music.

Touch Wiz UI feature The Samsung Eternity A867 Plus also has a great feature, the Touch Wiz UI. It doesn’t have many widgets at present, but Samsung will be releasing more of them in the fall, reports say. One of the easiest to access is the “sound profile” widget, which has a calculator and a profiles widget that goes with Bluetooth. The menu for Bluetooth is very easy to use. The regular menu contains Address Book, AT&T GPS, Messaging, My Stuff, and YellowPages, among other things.

Messaging and keyboarding You can use most messaging services, including AIM, Yahoo!, MMS, SMS, IM, and MSN. The nice, roomy keyboard has the T9 feature, but it’s not very accurate. It does have a regular number pad on the phone or handwriting recognition and you can also taxed with it.

Is the Samsung Eternity A867 Plus worth the money? It’s most definitely for you if you want full touch technology, sleek and stylish sophistication, and the latest entertainment options. You can get immediate access to the Internet, true, but you can also get the latest in entertainment, and you’ll likely like the top 3G/HSDPA device. The phone has a full touch QWERTY keyboard, and an on-board accelerometer. It also has vibration responsiveness with a 3.2-inch display that gives you crisp clarity and makes Internet surfing almost as much fun as doing it on a full-sized computer — all in something that you can just slip into your pocket. Chances are, if you try the Samsung Eternity A867 Plus, you’ll like it.
