Samsung MM-A800 (Sprint) review

Samsung MM-A800 Sprint's snazzy new slider phone boasts the first 2-megapixel camera in the United States and a host of multimedia goodies, but it's stuck on yesterday's data network. The Samsung MM-A800 will impress shutterbugs and A/V lovers with its...

Two-megapixel camera; nice slider design; large, gorgeous screen; direct-to-printer photo printing; business card reader; streaming video and audio player; 32MB TransFlash memory card included; 3D gaming.

Bulky and heavy; no Bluetooth or IR support; no speakerphone; choppy video over 1xRTT network; expensive.

Samsung A800

Finally! If you've been dreaming of a phone that takes decent pictures, you'll gladly hand over your cash for the MM-A800 from Samsungthe nation's first available 2-megapixel camera phone. This phone takes pictures good enough to print, plays MP3s,...

The only 2-megapixel camera phone in the U.S. Lots of cutting-edge features

Though the camera is excellent, many other features aren't quite perfect. Bulky

It's the ultimate bleeding-edge convergence phone and the best camera phone available today.

Samsung SGH-A800

In my point of view, Samsung has certainly done it with the A800 - on an overall scale, this phone is certainly a worthwhile candidate if you're after something that's considerably smart and just the right size. Improvements on the user interface...
