Samsung Access vs Samsung BlackJack II vs LG Vu
The Samsung Access cell phone is slim, light at 3.46 ounces and attractive in a business-like way. The large number pad and controls surrounding the d-pad are shiny while the back and sides have a soft-touch black finish that keeps the phone securely in hand.
The Samsung Access looks, acts and feels like a standard candybar phone. It bears a physical resemblance to the Samsung BlackJack II, but the Access isn’t a smartphone and forgoes the QWERTY keyboard. It’s a stand-up feature phone with 3G HSDPA, CV support, Bluetooth and a 1.3 megapixel camera.
Poor Samsung: they release their first MediaFLO TV phone for AT&T and it’s eclipsed by the sexy, touch screen LG Vu (really the lust-inducing LG Prada with a TV tuner and an AT&T logo). The Access and Vu are currently the only broadcast TV phones in AT&T’s line, and AT&T started that service at the beginning of May 2008 in 58 metro regions in the US.
