Twist and shout, the Samsung X830 reviewed

Samsung X830
Slashphone has just put up their review of the curiously twisty phone/MP3 player.  The verdict?  Ok.

According to the review, those that seek slim phones, like to extract “oohs and ahs” from passerbys, and those who like to take pictures, this is for you.  If you are a mad texter, maybe not.  Then there is the ergonomic factor.

“Heavy texters are going to hate the keypad and small screen, keen photographers have better cameraphones to choose from and music-lovers will want more capacity than 1GB.  However, if you talk more than you text, prize size and design above all else and are reluctant to give up more space than necessary then the X830 could very well be the phone for you.”

The 830 is a GSM phone sports 1GB non-expandable memory, which will save you time uploading large music catalogs.  The unit, when closed, could be mistaken for a stand alone music player.  Not shabby.  To me though, it is reminiscent of a spark plug gapper…

Price looks to be about $330 when it comes to America.
