Samsung i7110 gets reviewed


We've already seen it out in the wild, but those intrigued by Samsung's shiny new i7110 candybar handset will no doubt want to head on over All About Symbian, which has just delivered part one of an expectedly thorough review of the phone. Not too surprisingly, the phone's 2.6-inch OLED screen proved to be the real stand-out feature, with the site even going so far as to describe is as "something of a revelation." It was also especially impressed by the phone's 5-megapixel camera and dual-LED flash, which stood up well to and sometimes surpassed the one on the Nokia N82 (video capture, however, proved to be considerably more lackluster). On the downside, the optical joystick and control cluster, while "interesting," proved to be "somewhat flawed," with the joystick occasionally resulting in the wrong item being selected. As you might expect, they're reserving final judgment for part two of the review, which also promises to delve into the phone's software suite in greater detail.
