Samsung S7330 review: Soul junior
Gsmarena have posted their review of the Samsung S7330 Soul. Here are the key features, main disadvantages and final conclusion.
Key features:
•3G with HSDPA support
•Quad-band GSM support, usable worldwide
•Touchpad navigation
•2.2" 262K-color QVGA display
•3 megapixel autofocus camera with LED flash
•35MB of user memory, microSD expansion
•Bluetooth v2.0 with A2DP
•USB v2.0
•FM radio with RDS
•Smart dialing
•ShoZu integration (direct image and video uploads)
Main disadvantages:
•LED flash is inadequate
•Video recording tops out at QCIF resolution
•Confusing mix of regular and touch-sensitive keys
•More expensive than similar-featured competing models
That's that on the down-market Soul, which does have the good and the bad of the original. The S7330 is in a lower price bracket than the U900 Soul but packs the same UI goodies, which is an achievement. However the low-key exterior shows its modest roots. Samsung S7330 is trimmed down in terms of imaging, but the trade-off is quad-band network support. The touchpad is the S7330 defining feature, but it just isn't everyone's cup of tea.
Anyway, we might as well be too picky here and the reason probably is the high bar set by the Soul. The S7330 was only very recently released and price has nowhere to go but down. And that may be the right push for Samsung S7330 to start climbing that lower league it's playing in.
