Duration of ownership: 2 Months

Strengths: Nice size display, good color. Good response to e-mail, internet requests. Light weight, comfortable to hold and use. Key board small, but easy to use. Has expansion card port.

Weaknesses: No clear cut directions on how to save to storage card, uses lots of juice, hence the two batteries (I got two standard batteries with mine).

Overall Evaluation: I love the phone, and am glad to have it. Just wish it was easier to use the storage card. I can load it from my computer, but saving to it while using the phone is unknown to me as of yet!! Although it uses alot of power, the charger that doubles as a caring case for the spare battery is GREAT!! I would recommend it to anyone wanting more, for less.

Strengths: easy to use

Weaknesses: to fragile

Overall Evaluation: had to raplace this phone twice. it is very fragile. if you just drop it from two feet it will work but all you will see is a white screen. att told me i could have insurance on the phone, but when i called the insurance company they said they don't usually insure these phone but they would honor me one time. since the first problem , the phone has a white screen again and i cannot get a replacement. don't buy this phone and just get a blackberry or a palm if you want a smartphone.

Strengths: Small, thin, and light with impressive multimedia functions for a cellular/PDA phone.

Weaknesses: No 3.5mm headphone jack to play your audio files.

Overall Evaluation: The Samsung BlackJack SGH i607 phone is an impressive PDA/mobile phone; it being the latest mobile phone that Samsung has to offer with Cingular being the first cellular carrier to offer this exclusively. What is promising in the horizon is the Apple iPhone that will be available sometime in June -- a formidable player to contend with the Samsung BlackJack SGH i607. The BlackJack comes with two batteries (a standard and an extended battery). The extended battery can last you for nearly 2 weeks (probably more depending on usage) without needing recharging on average when using nearly most of the multimedia features: mp3, camera, Bluetooth, etc. The QWERTY keyboard is easily intuitive. The two batteries as mentioned earlier are standard and extended batteries. For those who would prefer the slimmer and lighter aesthetic look and feel may be comfortable with the standard battery and the standard battery cover. Removing the battery cover of the BlackJack was very difficult to r...
