Reviews of the Samsung Sync SGH-A707 - blue (AT&T)
-
CNET Review
The Good: The Samsung Sync has an attractive design that includes a great internal display. It also supports Cingular Music and offers a full range of features, including support for HSDPA networks, stereo Bluetooth, and a satisfying 2-megapixel camera.
The Bad: The Samsung Sync had average call quality at times, and we weren't impressed by the navigation controls or keypad. Also, it doesn't come with a USB cable in the box.
The Bottom Line: The Samsung Sync is a great choice for music-mad cell phone users, but its call quality could be better.

Review Summary: For a device that claims to be a music phone, the Sync makes listening to music a lot harder than it should be.

Review Summary: By all accounts, the Samsung Sync is an attractive cell phone, but looks can be deceiving since it is actually quite large although it has such a thin profile. Since it supports the latest in high-speed data networks you can watch streaming video, listen
