    CNET Review

    July 29, 2009

    The Good: The Samsung Jet has an attractive design, an easy-to-use touch-screen interface, and satisfying performance.

    The Bad: The Samsung Jet lacks voice dialing, instant messaging, and GPS software for directions. Customization options are limited.

    The Bottom Line: The Samsung Jet is a powerful multimedia phone with decent performance and a few welcome user interface upgrades. But don't mistake it for a smartphone.

    Review Summary: The way Samsung hyped this phone up, you'd think it was the best product in the history of mobile. Is raw processing power the be all and end all?
