Advantages: Touch screen is a novelty Disadvantages: Call sound can distort if the volume is at max, increased risk of theft
I was dubious about getting this phone, however as it was time for my upgrade on my contract, and I liked none of the other phones, I decided to go for this one.
The touch screen is the main attraction but it can also be the main reason that people don't like this phone. The touch screen takes about half an hour to get used to, but once how to touch it, and how long for, is mastered its a pleasant phone to use.
Its design was the result of Samsungs ... ...with GIORGIO ARMANI blazoned beneath the 2.6 Inch screen; however this doesn't detract from its appeal. It measures 87.5 x 54.5 x 10.5 mm which conveniently slips into a pocket (I often have to physically feel for it to make sure its there, its so light and slim line!)
It comes with a cleaning cloth similar to that of glasses (to clean fingerprints off the screen), a velvety cloth case and a snap on flip hard case (however I find that the hard case ...

Advantages: looks good. Disadvantages: the touch screen doesnt always register your request
the samsung georgio armani is without a doubt one of the worst phones i've had. it looks amazing without a doubt, but the fact everything is touch screen apart from hang up, answer and the light/camera button makes life so much more difficult. sometimes, when dialling a telephone number you'll find yourself pressing a touch screen button 5 or 6 times before it finally recgonises your existance. this phone comes with a 1gb memory card wich is usefull, ... ...on ebay, eventually getting a samsung f700, which is by far one of the best phones ive had. samsung are very good when it comes to making phones... but everyone has there bad days. unfortunately this phone was made on one of them. it will have you moaning your socks off if you buy this. ...

Advantages: Sleek elegance design Disadvantages: No radio, Difficult to get used to
I've had the Giorgio Armani for 7 months. At first it was a little difficult getting used to the touch screen but you soon pick it up. The features of the phone are excellent, the camera takes great pictures even though it is only 3 Mega Pixels, and the only downfall is that the phone doesn't have a radio.
I believe that you can have 2 way+ coversations usin the Giorgio Armani. Basically meaning that I can call 2 or more people at once and we can ... ...this yet if it is true?
The main reason for me getting the phone was for its sleek elegance. Being credit card size it will fit into ANY bag or pocket, and with its designer label it is certainly something that you can show off.
I'm quite clumsy when it comes to phones but try not to drop it too much because this can cause problems with the speaker. My phone makes a rustling sound from time to time when i call people and it makes it very difficult ...

Quick review of Samsung Armani
This phone is a fashion phone ONLY. It has all features which a mobile should have. But the touch screen is not as handy as it takes ages to type a simple messege, Its not only about practice but also the response of touch. You need short nails and sleek fingers ( So its a phone for ladies) . Good leather cover, looks awsome when you move the sleek flap from it and use it to type or talk, looks like a sleek mouth piece. ...

Quick review of Samsung Armani
It may look good and be a good size, but it is not user friendly. The touch screen is slow to react to any commands whether its typing a message or using the applications, it is always frustratingly slow. Making phone calls is not an easy task and when you do successfully get it right, the line is frustratingly unclear for the person on the other end. So in the end it is just not a good phone and best to stay away. ...

I have recently purchased the Samsung Armani P520 and after having the LG PRADA (which I loved and was unfortunately stolen) was very excited about getting this phone. Unfortunately there was a lot the ARMANI phone was lacking in comparison to the PRADA phone!!!. Is there a trend now of designers putting their name to a phone which simply looks sexy but dosen't necessarily perform that well??

Samsung ARMANI ... ...luckily I have had a Samsung phone before so I knew how the basic functions worked. But for a new Samsung user this is extremely bad form by the manufacturers!!!
The memory capability for the phone (not with the addition of the memory card) is fantastic. Considering the size of the phone I can install a lot of files without the need to transfer onto the memory card and it can hold 1000 messages... now this is fantastic for someone whom hates to ...
