Reviews of the Samsung Highlight SGH-T749 - ice blue (T-Mobile)
-
CNET Review
The Good: The Samsung Highlight has an easy-to-use design with satisfying call quality. It supports T-Mobile's 3G network and a functional feature set with a camera and music player.
The Bad: The Samsung Highlight's call volume is low and speakerphone quality is unimpressive. Its memory card slot is located behind the battery.
The Bottom Line: The Samsung Highlight doesn't offer anything you haven't seen before, but it works quite well as an entry-level touch-screen phone.
