CNET Review
The Good: The Samsung SCH-U550 cell phone offers stereo Bluetooth and 3G support.
The Bad: The Samsung SCH-U550 has a dull design and poorly designed controls. Also, its call and multimedia performance was disappointing.
The Bottom Line: The Samsung SCH-U550 doesn't offer the performance or design that we'd expect from a 3G Verizon Wireless cell phone.
