Guest Pagemakers Posted May 14, 2003 Report Posted May 14, 2003 Just played with a friends Samsung V200. For the first time I have been tempted away from my SPV. The V200's screen is beautiful, really beautiful. My SPV screen looked really sad in comparison. The V200's buttons are a joy to use compared with the buttons on the SPV, which must be the worst buttons on any phone I have ever owned. The V200 built in camera is a joy to use. Sadly, the V200 does not feature the SPV's home screen idea, nor can it handle email, no MSN Messenger and games are pretty poor. So for now, I'm sticking with my trusty SPV but I have been severely tempted.......
Guest ClintEastman Posted May 14, 2003 Report Posted May 14, 2003 Well if you do i hope you have fun with your new buttons... :)
Guest madu Posted May 14, 2003 Report Posted May 14, 2003 I know what you are talking about Pagemakers. It's like holding in your hands a thoroughly designed, fully developed and just simply quality device - like driving a German car... It's maybe not as flexible for hard-core mods as Japanese rally cars, but it works and works very well.
Guest morpheus2702 Posted May 14, 2003 Report Posted May 14, 2003 OK there are plenty more phones out there that as phones are head and shoulders above the SPV. Agree with you that the Samsungs are glorious objects and the screens are knockout. My T68i is extremely pocketable. Nokias are great for texting... But surely we buy SPVs because simply, it is the Windows Smartphone and everything that goes with it? We make allowances for for the average/poor design because of the tricks it does? I know for one that I was sick of carrying around a PDA, a phone and a laptop, all of which I needed to sync with each other. That's my two pence worth...
Guest Pagemakers Posted May 14, 2003 Report Posted May 14, 2003 I agree. If Samsung made the SPV it would be perfect.
Guest madu Posted May 14, 2003 Report Posted May 14, 2003 Totally agree, I refuse to have a non-Smartphone powered mobile!!
Guest MECX Posted May 15, 2003 Report Posted May 15, 2003 Samsung are releasing there smatphone with windows OS after all--cant remember the thread i saw that in--maybe wait and get one of them. I HATE DAMN FLIP PHONES oo thats better--its just had to be said :)
Guest madu Posted May 15, 2003 Report Posted May 15, 2003 HEHE!! Yep, Samsung is indeed making an SP phone! And it looks damn goooood! (apart from being a clamshell, but I think I could bare with it...)
Guest Paul [MVP] Posted May 15, 2003 Report Posted May 15, 2003 I'd rather have my Audi than an Evo VIII! :) P
Guest Pagemakers Posted May 15, 2003 Report Posted May 15, 2003 I agree about the clamshell design and I also hate aerials, however, given a choice of my SPV looking like an SPV or looking like a V200 I now know what I'd choose now!
Guest dan.peterson Posted May 15, 2003 Report Posted May 15, 2003 I'd rather have an Audi than a Samsung thats for sure.
