Reviews of the Samsung Mobi SCH-U620 (Verizon Wireless)

    CNET Review

    April 5, 2007

    The Good: The SCH-U620 is the first cell phone to support Verizon's V Cast Mobile TV service. With excellent video performance, a 1.3-megapixel camera and camcorder, Bluetooth connectivity, and music playback, this is a full-featured multimedia phone.

    The Bad: Given that live TV is the big selling point, the external speakers could be more robust and the display could be larger. Also, the fairly drab design belies the SCH-U620's cutting-edge factor, and the music and video playback could be a lot simpler. It also has a disappointing battery life.

    The Bottom Line: The first of two phones that support V Cast Mobile TV, the SCH-U620 is a solid performer. But those looking for more flash may want to wait for the LG VX9400.

    Review Summary: Verizon's V CAST Mobile TV services is now operating in full swing. We spent the past week and a half with Samsung's SCH-U620 in order to see what all the fuss is about. In short, the phone and service both work pretty well.
