Samsung Caliber Reviews

This Samsung Phone does have Caliber
Rating:

This phone is the updated version of the Delve, many people complained about freezing in the phone, but I have yet to experience that on the Caliber. The Caliber is a very stylish phone, it looks great, and the camera flash is AMAZING, but the phone has its shortcomings

PROS:
Design
Touch Screen Responsiveness and Accuracy
Camera w/ Auto Focus & Flash (take wonderful pics)
Email app
Browser
Call Quality
Text Messaging
easyedge
Accelerometer
...and MUCH MORE

CONS:( i will give the different cons, annoyance ratings, 1=not that annoying thru 5= very annoying)

Can't send multiple pictures at once (3)
Can't customize lock screen photo (5)
Kind of hard to click small links on web pages (2)
You have to wait until a page fully loads, before to can zoom, access settings, etc...(3)
3 second lag when opening Inbox, Outbox, and Drafts (1)
Auto-focus works on the camera when it wants too (1)
Can't delete Preloaded pictures or quick text (4)
The "add quick text" button is too close to the space key (3)

So as far as I know those are all the cons I have so far. but overall, this is a really good phone, albeit it can be quirky sometimes, I would recommend this phone to Samsung Freaks or people on U.S. Cellular network, who wants a decent touch screen phone. How my review helped, HAVE A FANTASTIC DAY!!!

sweet fone
Rating:

Pros:
Really slick interface
Great web browser
Fairly intuitive
Good navigation
Camera is surprisingly good (adjust aperture, iso, etc..)

Cons:
Battery doesn't last
Bluetooth is a little wonky but works
There is a learning curve

All in all, I would buy it again. The full browser is my favorite. Sound is good. Easy access to the microSD is a plus.

Feature rich phone
Rating:

This phone has it all!! It has enough contacts space for all your friends and family and those who no longer are your friends if you decide to keep them with 2,000 contact entries.

It has a 3 mega pixel camera with flash that takes amazingly good pictures and also records video.

It has widgets that you can customize and download new ones if you like.

Has a Micro SD card slot for additional memory so you can load up on MP3's, pictures and videos.

The Mp3 player is great since you can create play lists and offers a few equalizer settings plus the volume is very loud.

With the right video encoder you can even use it as a portable media player by encoding the videos in .3gp format with a resolution of 320x240 Thats the best I was able to get after toying with it for a bit.

The navigation software is Freakishly good since I can use it even when riding my Ninja tucked away in my jacket while using headphones with its street name and turn by turn voice guidance.

The battery is about the only thing I wish lasted longer but if you get spare one you should be able to watch 2 movies easy if you get stuck somewhere waiting for a tow truck, Dr. appt and so on. In closing this is the best phone I have owned so far and would recommend to anyone.

Or Will It Be This One?
Rating:

As noted in another post for another Samsung phone, I'd stated that I would probably be purchasing that phone. However, after reading more reviews on different sites, I'm now leaning toward this phone. I know, it sounds like I can't make up my mind, but I'm really trying to do my homework here when deciding on my next phone.
