Samsung SPH-A900 Cellphones

Cellphones Review - Home >> Samsung

As many people know, Motorola?s RAZR mobile phone has gotten raves and reviews from both consumers and critics for its cutting-edge design and look. It?s fashionably slim as well, and has been designated as the thinnest phone in the world. Now, however, it looks like Samsung is set to try to wrest the world?s attention from the RAZR to the Samsung SPH-A900 mobile phone.

Just like the RAZR, the SPH-A900 is super slim, measuring just 14.5 millimeters or just about half an inch thick. Capturing those Kodak moments is easy with the built-in 1.3-megapixel digital camera and sharing music and making calls is sublime with the speakerphone.

Browsing the Internet and reading e-mail is facilitated by the Blade?s high-speed broadband connection (care of service provider Sprint). Wireless connection to your PC or other compatible devices is enabled via Bluetooth technology ? according to Samsung, the following Bluetooth profiles are supported: HSP, HFP, OPP, BPP, FTP, and DUN. And for scoring even more high-tech points, the Blade has a speech recognition system; you just need to use your voice to launch certain commands or dial certain numbers.
