"Another excellent Samsung phone"
Pros: Sleek, Stylish, Frontal/Upright Qwerty, Tons of custom shortcuts and dedicated keys, very functional keypad with thoughtful layout. Slides for locking and unlocking phone. Very easy menu layout.
Cons: Keys could have better grip and/or be raised slighty more; however, typing is easier than it appears. Really not bad...but keypad is not quite as good as my Moto Q. I'm a guy with average sized hands...bigger hands may wish to Opt for someting else.
Summary: This is a very sleek and stylish frontal/upright Qwerty phone with dedicated keys for silent/vibrate, messaging, camera, and CV Video. Also has MediaNet shortcut PLUS 4 custom shortcuts on the directional pad and a plethora of custom shortcuts from the left soft key. It even has a button on the right hand side that provides additional (none custom) shortcuts.
Overall I feel this phone is very well thought out and innovative, in that it is the first Upright QWERTY keypad that slides and is NOT a PDA. I previously used the Motorola Q because I like the Frontal/Upright Qwerty for one hand texting as oppose to the common, on the side keypads that require two hands. Finally, a non-PDA phone with an upright QWERTY keypad...and it slides. Hooray!
