T Mobile Makes A Comeback
The newest of T Mobile’s messaging-centric mobile phones is the Samsung Comeback SGH-T559 - see CNET review. At first glance, this phone makes a strangely awkward impression, appearing large and boxy while still being obviously modern in design. It’s definitely not a subtle design, but there are quite a few features that make this product worth considering when shopping for a mobile phone.
Completely loaded with bonus features, the Comeback offers mobile phone standards like texting, email, a music player, and a camera as well as some unusual extras. GPS with TeleNav support means you’ll never get lost for long, Audio Postcards can make it easy to send funny messages to friends, and the full HTML web browser makes it easy to surf the web.
Samsung Comeback SGH-T559 Quick Stats:
- Dimensions: 4.3” x 2.2” x .7”
- Weight: 4.6 oz.
- Screen: 240 x 400 pixels
- Camera: 2 MP
The HTML web browser is a big highlight of this phone, which in several other ways could be found lacking. Connections are fast when supported by T Mobile’s 3G network and even allow video playback and download. Although the relatively small size of the screen means you’ll have to scroll a bit more than usual, it’s a very accessible and impressive browser.
With a great feature like that, it’s strange that the creators of this mobile phone didn’t put a little reworking the texting keyboard a little. While there is a full keyboard, it is ironically on the small side, feeling cramped despite the size of the phone itself. The buttons often require the delicate art of texting with fingernails to press.
Everything is a little give and take, and this mobile phone is no exception. Leave us a comment below to let us know what you think: is Samsung’s Comeback going to get you to return or does it have you heading out the door?
