Samsung SGH-T809 review

Sindre Lia goes about looking cool with Samsung's most recent slim slider, the SGH-T809 from T-Mobile, finding that good things - well, mostly - really do come in small packages.
Handsets sporting brilliant displays and cameras have propelled Samsung to a top shelf placement among esteemed handset manufacturers such as Motorola, Nokia and Sony Ericsson. Sindre Lia plays with T-Mobile's most wanted handset at the time of writing; the Samsung SGH-T809 slim slider.
Being slightly wider than most handsets nowadays, the SGH-T809 measures 3.8 x 2.0 x 0.6 inches and weighs in at 3 ounces. However, as the slider handset is also very slim and light, the width is duly compensated for by an all-encompassing cool and sleek design. The most apparent design trade-off is the mediocre 5-way navigational pad, yet the numerical keypad's flat buttons fortunately interact very well indeed with the handset's user interface. It should also be mentioned that the memory and charger slots' plastic inserts on each side of the handset kept popping out in a most annoying manner.
