After looking around a plethora of electrical stores, completely undecided about which phone I should purchase, I spotted the Samsung SGH-U900 Soul, sitting stylish and modern on its perch.
The phone, which comes in a small variety of colours (including pink, silver and graphite) is of slide design. Underneath the perfectly-sized display screen, which even caters for those with less than perfect eyesight, lies the coloured touchpad. The sensitivity of this touchpad, along with the colour can also be altered, as can the 'vibrate-when-touched' function it contains.
My perhaps favourite feature of this super-sexy mobile is most likely to be the 5.0 Megapixel camera. This amazing camera can not only capture pictures of ultra-fine quality, but it can also capture videos of the same calibre. With the phone's very own editing system, you can crop, rotate, blur etc., any pictures you capture and/or receive. The tiny pin-like hole at the front-top-left of the phone is also a camera (yes, it has two) - the function of this is to allow "video-phoning".
Other benefits I have found of owning the Soul include: - bluetooth. - FM Radio. - JAVA Games. - a music player & library (which plays a variety of music file formats). - multimedia messaging. - the inlcuded USB cable for connectivity to a computer/laptop. - voice memo/voicemail. - the ability to store over 1,000 entries to your phonebook and store up to 500 text messages. ...and many more.
A couple of criticisms I have of the Soul: - the battery power: needs charged daily if the phone is used a lot. - the volume: I was a little disappoiinted with the volume on the Soul - it could be slightly higher; I personally have no problems with hearing it but those with slightly harder hearing would benefit from opting for a slightly louder phone.
The desiginers of this brilliant product deserve kudos for attempting to fit everyone's needs. I believe this phone is worth the money.
