Samsung Gleam Review - SlashGear
SlashGear
reviews the
Samsung Gleam: “The Samsung Gleam is neither the lightest nor smallest handset, but the it will get attention because of the EV-DO and 1xRTT high-speed internet access, full-featured Bluetooth and support for Verizon’s V CAST music and video download services. All that media and browsing takes place on a bright, impressively crisp 2.1-inch, 240 x 320 262k colour QVGA internal screen. The Samsung Gleam’s contrast is rich and streaming TV really shows off how far Samsung’s display technology has progressed.
The Samsung Gleam is undoubtedly a capable and function-packed cellphone, and at $149.99 (after a $50 rebate) with a standard two-year contract it comes in at a reasonable price. The Samsung Gleam will be particularly tempting for anyone looking for a straightforward way to get their laptop online at EV-DO speeds, and equally happy in the hands of keen messagers, although would-be photographers should perhaps look elsewhere.”
