Samsung Impression A877

Samsung has finally launched the newest mobile touch screen cell phone, The Samsung Impression, into the markets recently.The Samsung Impression for AT&T is a great option for heavy messaging, featuring both a touch screen and slide out QWERTY keyboard. Samsung Impression includes a 3 megapixel camera with video capture ability, plus a flash and Geo-tagging feature not found in many touch screen devices. Samsung Impression produces one of the finest displays ever and will be able to give one of the brightest and finest colored display.

The Impression’s touch screen is undoubtedly the highlight. The nation’s first commercially available AMOLED (active-matrix organic light-emitting diode) screen results in one of the brightest and clearest displays in the United States and is paired with a keyboard underneath an amazingly slim, metallic blue quick messaging phone that’s all touch screen on the outside, all buttons on the inside. This touch screen cell phone display is bright with excellent contrast and color even at the dimmest setting. Pressing the latter will open onscreen shortcuts for the phone dialer, the messaging menu, the Web browser, the music player, and the games menu. Being a capacitive touch screen cell phone, you shouldn’t have to press very hard for the hardware to register your finger. If you don’t want to use the physical keyboard, the Impression also offers a virtual onscreen keyboard and a handwriting recognition tool. Scrolling around Web pages was pretty smooth, thanks to the responsive touch screen.
