My only caveat to this review is that I'm a smartphone newbie. That said, I have a hard time finding anything I didn't like about this phone. Starting with the looks, it's one of the few smartphones that I wouldn't feel embarrassed ta
Personal background: I am a medical resident who loves tech/gadgets, and who has used a PocketPC (HP Ipaq 1910) since 2003 and a Blackjack (i607) since 2007. Currently an AT&T customer. So I recently sold my Blackjack I on the world's favorite a
Before I start this review I just want to say that I do not use the internet on my phone so this review is a little lop-sided, but for those of you who are like me and cannot afford the internet then this review is for you. I just got my blackjack II clos
I bought this phone to replace my HTC 8525, and am very pleased. My wife owns the i607 (Blackjack I), and I am quite pleased with this phone in comparison. It has far better battery life, and the keys are just slightly further apart on the Blackjack II
I picked this for a couple of reasons: 1) reasonable price (with contract extension) 2) Napster support 3) QWERTY keypad Pretty low demands, i know. but this has exceeded my expectations. Despite a rather long startup, the phone functions well jumping b
Great entry level smartphone
Its an excellent smartphone for what it does. If you want a good quality entry level smartphone then this is the one for you. The battery life is good- spending a day texting and making a few calls only made it lose one "bar" on the battery li
I have stayed away from Windows Mobile based Phones for a very long time and my most recent phone prior to the Blackjack II purchase was a Symbian phone. I really had no great expectations with the new Blackjack II but it was time for a phone replacement
This is a very nice phone and a better choice over the black model as the black Samsung BlackJack 2 gathers alot of finger prints. The back of the PDA is a completely different material then the one on the black version. Dont let the RED offend your BUTCH
Great product. Free with 2 day shipping...and I just ported my number over from Verizon. Everything went well, and there's no ridiculous rebate to send in to get screwed on. That's what happened last time with my Motorola E815 (Verizon). Why
I owned this phone for about 7 months now and have been pretty happy with it. The screen gets scratched easily so needs to be protected. Other than that, it works great. Has GPS so google/live maps can do a good job of navigation. Battery life is excellen
When I first got my BJII I was dissapointed with its features. For one, there was no voice dialing, the supplied applications were sparse, no push email, non-standard plug, slightly sluggish Windows mobile software, and a glossy black finish that got dir
This is a very easy and enjoyable phone to use. Everything is positive including the ease of set-up and day to day useage. My only complaint is that there is no way of copy and pasting text or items within the phone interface.
As a Windows Mobile phone, I love everything about it. So whatever you think a Windows Mobile phone should do, this one does (with the exceptions below). Notable pluses: - Excellent keyboard - Excellent cell reception - Good battery life Notable minuse
A nice upgrade for a great phone
I switched to the Blackjack 2 last summer after owning a very simple LG phone for 3 years. I wanted to remotely surf the web easier and found that the text interface was simpler to use than the Iphone, for me at least. The character limit per message is s
I have been searching for a new phone that does work email, can send/receive picture messages, send/receive short videos, can accept or reject meeting invites and updates my calendar over the air (aka everything the iPhone can't do). The BlackJack II
I have always owned Motorola phones because I have had such a great experience with their ability to keep a strong signal when other people around me have no signal at all. So, it was with great caution that I bought the Blackjack. First, the good: easy
Per AT&T support, you can't tether the BJ II via USB, much to my chagrin.
Got this on Memorial Day. Nice qwerty keyboard, tactile enough. Scroll wheel seems like its going to fall off. BATTERY LIFE SUCKS. I think its because of 3G but I found a way to disable it by typing *#1546792*# then go thru the menus. Few phone calls. So
The Blackjack II is a cool phone but has a sensitive screen. I carried mine in my pocket and the screen went bad. Samsung claims I destroyed the screen, but I have no idea how, as I was careful with it. If you get one of these phones I encourage you to
I first saw this phone at TECHed in Orlando. I was kind of impressed, so I decided to order one and try it out. I have been a blackberry users for several years now, and I hate to say it, but I was not very impressed by the phone. It was slow compared t
I love this phone for its ability to sync with my office server (e-mail, calendar, etc.) and for its other bells and whistles. (The GPS service is very nice and worth the $10/month I pay to AT&T.) However, I'm about to send my 1st replacement pho
The Blackjack II is an attractive, feature rich phone, but it doesn't fully...
It's a decent keyboard cellphone, will all the features you want and even some you don't want. There are a couple bugs. The GPS is hinky and seems not to perform around tall things like buildings and trees. The buttons freeze somtimes, requirin
The only complaint I have is that the unit doesn't manage voice calls very well. It notifies you that you have missed a call, but provides no date or time the call came in. It has a general call log which is hard to find and provides very limited i
I've been using my BJII for a couple of months now and I like the form factor. It's slim and sleek. Unfortunately, the phone takes an extremely long time to "boot up" when you turn it on thanks to...wait for it...Windows Mobile 6.0!
After three months of using this device, I am ready to stand inline in front of the Apple store. The most prevalent problems are due to the Windows Mobile operating system and as of last week the horrible quality of Windows Live Mail software that Microso
First of all, this was my first smart phone. My last phone was a very simple, inexpensive Nokia that I had for 5 years. At first I was really pleased with all the features this phone has and I like the way the phone looks. The camera was pretty good, alth
I have had this phone since last October with ATT service. The telephone is a piece of junk. It has weird things happen, such as tonight when it erased all of my calendar (one of the major reasons I bought it). A couple of weeks ago I had some alarms set
[...] I've had this phone for a week now and already it's obvious that this is a piece of crap, like most of Samsung's phones. On the plus side the phone gets good reception and good battery life. However the phone comes with many annoyance
After two months, the button in the middle of the circle stopped working. Now, after four months that I got a replacement, the windows is totally messed up. When I push "start" it is all blanc. I can't have access to anything that the softw
We have been looking for a good pda/phone for our company for a few months and settled on trying Blackjack II. We purchased a half a dozen to give our people in the field to try. After several months, not one of test group likes or even wants these phones
The Samsung Blackjack is a great example of how, the more complicated the phone, the more prone it is to bugs. I am on my second warranty replacement phone and am still having problems. Basically, the phone feature itself is prone to "crashing"
I've had this phone for less than a year and I can say that, without a doubt, this is the least user-friendly and least durable phone I have ever owned. The Windows OS is impossible to manage effectively and the build of the phone itself cannot withs
I bought the blackjack 2 earlier this year, around January. The first one I received was a dud, and luckily I figured it out within the first 30 days. I believe that the problem it was having was the inability to pick up a signal, and it kept freezing o
The problem I had with this phone is the ill conceived idea of the power port being the interface for music and computer connectivity. This power port is very flimsy and breaks easily with any wear and tear and Samsung will not fix it because it is connec
I bought this phone brand new almost exactly one year ago. To date, this is my 4th Blackjack II since I have had to exchange it with AT&T under the warranty 3 times. This phone has been constant a headache. About 6 months after I got it all of my ring
