CNET Review
The Good: The Samsung SPH-A420 is easy to use and offers a speakerphone, analog roaming, and acceptable call quality.
The Bad: The Samsung SPH-A420 has a dull, uninspiring design and lacks such basic features as an external display and a wireless Web browser.
The Bottom Line: The Samsung SPH-A420 is a serviceable phone for making calls, but it has an unattractive design and few features.
