Still on the search for a perfect phone… I was able to try the Samsung Continuum. Being a long time user of Verizon, I love the service they offer… And the great phones they have… It is just too hard to pick one.
A little about the Continuum: The Samsung Continuum, a Galaxy S phone, with a dual–display screen, updates your world in real time on its exclusive 1.8” Ticker display. With the Continuum, your life continues uninterrupted on the main ultra brilliant 3.4” Super AMOLED screen, while unobtrusive updates are delivered on the Ticker display as they happen. Get even more info, access and apps with the Continuums web browser and Android Marketplace. Include corporate and personal email support, social networking and calendar integration, and the world is at your fingertips. (VerizonWireless.com)
Just like the Samsung Fascinate, I had 2 weeks to play with this phone. The Samsung Continuum is a little smaller than the Fascinate, but just as cool!
My favorite PRO about this phone is that it had a scroll bar at the bottom – and it would show you the time (without having to go through unlocking the phone… and checking the clock) The same scroll bar could be set up to read other apps like showing when you had new Email – or how many emails were in your in box unread. Also for you sport fans… You could hook up ESPN and get updates right on your phone.
After finally getting use to the touch keyboard on the Fascinate, I was already a pro at the Continuum. The keyboard is defiantly a little smaller, but so is the phone. You can turn the phone sideways and it will bring up a larger keyboard (which I did quite often…because I feel I have large fingers!)
Once again this phone did have the Live Wall paper. I love that feature. Its just something that is simple, and doesn’t take a lot of thought – so when you are stressed out you can touch the screen of your phone… and ahhhh… peace!
The camera on this phone also was one of my favorite features – the pictures were crisp… and it had the Cartoon feature! My manager at work got a huge kick out of it…I was showing it off to one of my coworkers and told my manager to hold still… He looked like he came right from a comic book!
Overall I really enjoyed the features of this phone. It has everything that I need – to keep up with my crazy email in-box and also for fun and entertainment of blogging.
