X820

I wish i can be an automobile blogger like paultan, so this post isnt about new Volvo or BMW sports utility vehicle models (though they share similar naming conventions).

I recently got myself a spanking new Samsung handphone which was unintentionally owned. My sis bought it to replace her Moto V3, which after 3 days using it, she complained it doesnt fit into her jeans pocket. Since i am such a nice guy, i decided to buy over that piece of technology.



There have been much praises given to this phone here and here due to its world record breaking slimness. Its LCD display also superbly bright, none of the Scandinavian counterparts come close to it.

Despite all that, i wonder how come not a single review has talk about the following 2 features, which i find the most attractive.

1. Dialing display.
The numbers you key no longer restricted in typical fonts, but as pictures !!



2. SMS display.
On normal handphones, when sms is displayed, all the text will be shown. This phone displays each character in the sms one at a time progressively, thus mimicking computer screen terminals just like in those sci-fi movies. Unfortunately, my video upload to YouTube has failed, otherwise i can show you a video on this.

Nice right?
