Samsung BlackJack Cell Phone

Pros: Fast & Clear 3G Network Access, Sleek Form Factor, Great Universal Device, etc.

Cons: Keypad Requires Some Getting Used To, Daylight Savings Time Glitch, No Included Belt Pouch/Earpiece, etc.

The Bottom Line: This is a very strong, suitable, easy to use, and feature packed PDA/SmartPhone for someone wanting to organize their life into one small/sleek device.

Review: REASON FOR PURCHASE: I was switching from a Nokia 9300 (Communicator) on the Cingular/AT&T Network. I wanted a phone with a smaller phone factor, the convenience/compatibility of Windows Mobile, and a SmartPhone with 3G Network Access. Having had ...

Pros: Small size, internet speed, expandable memory, Direct-Push from Exchange. Rugged and reliable.

Cons: Number keypad needs getting used to, 3G internet uses up batteries.

The Bottom Line: Great phone, I love it. If you have Windows XP or Vista, this phone should be on your short list.

Review: I have had this phone for almost a year and overall I am very impressed. The phone has stood up to a lot of abuse and drops, and still works like a champ. Synching with Outlook on Windows Vista is superior to any non-Windows phone. I also set it up to ...

Pros: Strong Bluetooth, loud, handles calls well and is a serviceable all-in-one device

Cons: Idiotic keypad, unacceptable battery life, nearly impossible to update

The Bottom Line: A serviceable all-in-one device with good sound, good Bluetooth, and enough space on a 2gb micro SD card to cover a long flight.

Review: After going through a long line of simple cell phones, I grew up, became slightly more professional, and came to a point where I required a device that would allow me to check email, surf the web in a limited capacity, and serve as a media player when I ...

Pros: Size, keyboard, functionality, bluetooth, extended battery, texting, web surfing.

Cons: Price - why not free with a 2 year contract? MicroSD is too tiny

The Bottom Line: I would buy the newest version. Sophisticated and very useful. No troubles for 6 months.

Review: Slimmer than other Smartphones w/Qwerty, full functionality, nice speakerphone, small buttons, good extended battery, good screen. Bought it April '07 for $100 after rebate (which took longer than advertised, but as expected), and now-a-days you can ...

Pros: microsd slot, bluetooth, small size, looks great

Cons: screen size, keyboard, processing speed

The Bottom Line: Would buy this phone again... no big complaints.

Review: To start off I would like to say that I have never had a problem with this phone. Many people say they have had problems with the software or hardware but I have taken this phone to its fullest potential and I have not had any problems. Ill start off ...

Pros: Bright screen, VERY fast internet, thin form factor.

Cons: A few REALLY annoying design limitations.

The Bottom Line: While the phone has a few annoying design limitations, its thin form-factor and fast data rate make it a decent buy.

Review: The Samsung Blackjack is one of the more useful cellular phones I've owned. Although the perfect device has yet to be designed, this one comes pretty close. This review will feature ratings on battery life, signal strength, operating system stability, ...

Pros: Good reception, serviceable keyboard, strong Bluetooth, thin, fast Internet, decent all-in-one device

Cons: battery life, unreliable date and time updates, hard to turn off reminder alerts

The Bottom Line: I would give the phone an above average rating but for the calendar issues. Check out the Blackjack II first.

Review: I'm an attorney, so my calendar is very important to me. I was looking for my first "Smartphone", something that would replace my PDA (an HP iPAQ) and my rather flimsy Motorola RAZER that had been dropped one too many times. The Blackberry phones ...

Pros: comes with two batteries, www accessable, keyboard

Cons: keyboard takes some getting use to, hard to hear on

The Bottom Line: Good product but not for everyone

Review: We purchased two of these phones at the same time. One was returned within 30 days because it quit working all together. The other one I still have after almost one year. It has some good featurese and some bad. Lets start with the screen ... it has ...

Pros: Email accounts, size, decent battery life.

Cons: Buttons for numbers should be a better contrast than gray.

The Bottom Line: If you carry it in your pocket and can't afford the iPhone, this is a decent option.

Review: If you want a device that is small enough to carry in your pocket and functions as a phone, email client, and calendar, then the Blackjack will make you happy. But if you want great photos, it's 1.3mp camera isn't all that great. As a mp3 player it's not ...

Pros: Good reception, 3G capable, Micro sd card slot, QWERTY keyboard

Cons: Average battery life, Sometimes freezes for no reason

Review: The Samsung Blackjack isn't anything spectacular, but it is a reliable cell phone that can also be used to surf the web or check email. The qwerty keyboard makes typing considerably easier than a standard cell phone and is a necessity for anyone who's ...
