CNET Review
The Good: The Samsung SCH-u520 offers an attractive new user interface. It also has a worthy set of features including Bluetooth, a megapixel camera, and a microSD card slot.
The Bad: The Samsung SCH-u520 has slick buttons and controls, and its voice quality is variable. It also has poor battery life.
The Bottom Line: Though there are better choices for a midrange phone, the Samsung SCH-u520 is remarkable and offers the innovative Celltop application.
