Review of UMTS-communicator Samsung i780

Mobile-review have posted their Samsung i780 review and here are the specs and final impression.

We will look how well the i780’s 2 Mpix camera fares in the second part of the review, as well as the platform’s specs and software. The handset’s hardware department is interesting for combining the Qualcomm platform and a latest-gen CPU - the Marvell PXA3xx. Also we will be covering the operating system’s abilities, bundled GPS and other bits and pieces.

Our first impressions from hands-on with the i780 are very positive - the communicator is palm-friendly, offering both QWERTY-powered input and the convenience of single-handed handling. Its design won't leave you indifferent, being in keeping with Samsung's finest traditions - top-notch materials and very sturdy feel.
