Samsung Gravity SMART review: Smarter direction

 

Samsung Gravity has been a successful line of affordable, slide-out QWERTY messengers for T-Mobile for several years now. With the latest addition to the family, Samsung not only improves the package, but takes it in a whole new direction. Unlike its...

3.2" 16M color, TFT capacitive touchscreen with 480 x 320 pixels resolution, multi touch ; Full four-row, slide-out QWERTY keyboard with a customizable social networking key ; ARMv6 800MHz CPU, 270MB RAM, 150MB of user-available storage ; Android 2.2.2...

QVGA-only video recording ; No shutter key ; No secondary video-call camera ; No ambient light sensor ; No dedicated video player app ; Android 2.2 Froyo, instead of latest Android 2.3 Gingerbread

After spending significant time with the Samsung Gravity SMART, we came fairly impressed with it. Obviously, it wasn’t the spec sheet or the mind-blowing performance of the device which got to us. It was the fact that it got the job done on most...

Samsung Gravity Smart SGH-T589 (T-Mobile)

 

The Samsung Gravity Smart is a true Android smartphone with a roomy keyboard and screen, especially considering its low price.

Comfortable design. Great battery life. Responsive keyboard.

Poor call quality. Sluggish CPU. Middling camcorder.

Apps, Multimedia, and Conclusions As a proper Android phone, you get a solid WebKit browser and comprehensive e-mail connectivity. You also get free voice-enabled, turn-by-turn directions with Google Maps Navigation. The Gravity Smart works with over...

Samsung Gravity Smart review

 

Samsung's sub-brand of Gravity messaging phones branches out with the Samsung Gravity Smart, the line's first smartphone. Although the Gravity Smart runs Android 2.2 Froyo, the rest of the specs follow the series' traditional route of providing midtier...

The Samsung Gravity Smart has Android 2.2 Froyo, a sturdy QWERTY slider, and a comfortable body.

A smaller screen, camera quality flaws, and some keyboard awkwardness are the Gravity Smart's low points.

The Samsung Gravity Smart is a competent Android messaging phone for smartphone newcomers in search of a physical keyboard at a budget price.

Samsung Gravity SMART Review

 

Back in late 2008, the Samsung Gravity arrived on T-Mobile's lineup presenting itself as an affordable text messaging oriented phone, but as we've seen over the course of the last few years, the Gravity line has evolved to adapt with the ever-changing...

T-Mobile Samsara Un-carrier On Smart Suitcase Review: A Bright PR Grab

 

T-Mobile teamed up with Samsara to create “The Un-carrier On,” a smart carry-on it's claiming is “the smartest” of bags. Unfortunately, this bright magenta smart suitcase feels like an indulgent PR stunt and is also quite expensive at $325.

Samsung Gravity Smart Review [T-Mobile]

 

Welcome to another installment in the three mighty mid-range Samsung devices coming out on T-Mobile in these early 2011 summer months. This is the Samsung Gravity Smart, a slide-out keyboard toting single-core small-screen having Android 2.2 device...

Samsung Gravity Smart Reviewed - Failing to Put the Smart in Smartphone

 

The Gravity Smart is another entry level smartphone preloaded with Android 2.2. It also comes with a full physical QWERTY keyboard that slides out from under the display. But is that enough to justify calling the phone smart?

The Gravity Smart easily ranks in as an 'Average' entry level smartphone. While there's nothing majorly wrong with the smartphone, there's nothing majorly great about it either. For an extra $30 and a contract attached, you could get the Sidekick 4G...

Review: Samsung Gravity Smart

 

Samsung kicks out a mid-range Android smartphone for T-Mobile. What this little messaging phone lacks in high-end clout, it makes up for with solid performance.
