MobileTracker Reviews the Samsung i730
Posted by Darius Wey in "ARTICLE" @ 03:00 PM
"The Samsung SCH-i730 PDA/phone is an extremely fast, highly capable Pocket PC PDA with a stunning 320×240 screen which can be used in portrait or landscape modes, and cell phone with high quality reception. Unfortunately, the i730 empties its battery much too quickly, and, at a weight of virtually 8 oz (227gm) with its essential "extended" battery installed, is heavier than Palm's weighty Treo."
There have been many highs and lows with the i730 ever since Verizon brought the Samsung device into the US market. I, along with many others, find it to be a pretty neat device, but as neat as it may be, Ned from MobileTracker has identified two woes with this compact Pocket PC Phone Edition. The first being its less than impressive battery life. The second being its weight (when put head-to-head with the Treo). Any i730 owners care to comment on these issues?
