Samsung Monte S5620

Tuesday, July 27, 2010

Samsung Monte S5620The Monte S5620 is a newest touchscreen mobile that has all the features that a user requires. It has a front camera for 3G video calls. The screen is 3.0" which is big enough for using as a pocket PC. The screen keeps media consumption and the default widgets. This phone has converter application, YouTube, Google maps, Dictionary, Image Editor, Gmail(mobile version), Facebook and other more. The widgets are placed at the bottom, which is more accessible and the touchscreen works perfectly.


The phone might not be super fast in navigation but the irritating nature of the touchscreen malfucntions (accidental clicks etc) isn’t a problem anymore. The capacitive touchsceen here brings a lot of joy .However the weakness of Samsung’s OS can be seen with no full screen QWERTY accommodated on the 3″ display. At-least a landscape typing should have been enabled, but then this ain’t a smartphone that, rather something that would feel comfortable for first time touchscreen users to use. The T9 / keypad works fine for typing. The web browser is basic and gets the work done. YouTube.com works by loading videos on a YouTube player, however other video sites fail to work properly. I got audio from dekhona.com but video didn’t playback properly.

The addition of a 3.5mm audio jack is pleasant. The bundled headset along with the device is pretty neat and sound quality is good. You can record songs from FM. And our Sony Ericsson MW600 worked perfectly over bluetooth giving stereo output.
The 3.2 MP camera lacks flash or autofocus but a decent entry level camera. Overall the media features aren’t great but good enough to have.
