Samsung Finesse SCH-r810 (Metro PCS)

The  Samsung Finesse SCH-r810 for the Metro PCS network (See CNET Review or Official Samsung Page) is a great looking, touch screen candy bar Mobile Phone. It doesn’t support WiFi, but there’s not much else it doesn’t support other than that, making it a great, full featured phone with a price tag that won’t break your bank. You don’t usually associate Metro PCS phones with a lot of features and ‘coolness,’ but the Finesse is a little different, finessing its way into your heart. This is the only touch screen for MetroPCS and it’s good enough that it can compete with other big boys like the Blackberry Touch. Yeah, it’s that good.

The Mobile Phone uses Samsung’s TouchWiz user interface with the touch screen, which makes it incredibly easy to use. For getting info into the phone you have a virtual QWERTY available as well as handwriting recognition, which is pretty cool. This technology is only going to get better and better as time goes on. Pretty soon phones are going to be better than the computers we have in our homes and offices today.

If you’ve been on the MetroPCS network for a while and have always dreamed about having a better phone, your wait is finally over. The Samsung Finesse offers a lot of features that haven’t been available for Mobile Phones on the Metro PCS network before. This is going to make a lot of people really, really happy.

If you have the Samsung Finesse, we’d love to know what you think.
