With the launch of Samsung E900, the manufacturer seems to recapture its former glory days. The handset comes after the successful debut of LG Chocolate and only to make a greater impression.
Like the Chocolate, the Samsung E900 comes with a touch - sensitive screen. Which means that the upper portion of handset responds to the heat, meaning that there are no buttons to be pressed. The Samsung E900 also comes with the nifty features as well. When there is a call coming, the touch - sensitive capability of the handset ceases to operate. This is to ensure that the phone does not respond to the heat of the face, when receiving call.
Samsung E900 has also taken measures to revamp their Menu system. The have discarded their love with the bright blue and white colour scheme, and instead comes with black or white with much more modern icons. The basic layout remains the same, though you to see and select what is shown on the next menu screen simply by highlighting the relevant heading.
In terms of size, the Samsung E900 comes with a solid 80 MB of memory, with expansion capacity. The on-board memory can also be used to do more justice to its competent 2MP camera and the Mp3 player. The music player may not be as good as that of the Walkman series, but nonetheless it is decently addictive.
But the Mp3 prowess is also limited, not in terms of ergonomics, but because the Samsung E900 comes with a weak battery life. Only 3.5 hours of talk time are available, meaning either you play too much or talk too much. One reason why the handset is less empowered could be due to the touch sensitive feature. It sure eats up a lot of life.
The TFT screen of Samsung E900 displays a pleasant picture. Its calibre is 262k, meaning that all 2 megapixel images is displayed in fantastic quality. The Samsung E900 is a Tri band GMS 900 / 1800 / 1900. It also has EDGE, Bluetooth, and other conventional features.
