Samsung Instinct M800
Update on Instinct Shortcomings and More
Used the Instinct today with plans to buy it.
In Eric's review, he says the touch is not responsive and it took multiple touches to get it to responds. What I found:
I had ZERO problems with this. The touch is SIZE SENSITIVE so if you touch with a large area--say your thumb, you have to touch harder then if you touch with your stylist.
In Eric's review, he questioned the reception of the Instinct. What I found:
I was able to move about with a Curve & Instinct inside a building that has some weak signal spots. Both phone showed equal bars. Reception on the Instinct should be no different than other newer Sprint service phones.
I also logged into a work related site to enter a work-order on both the Instinct and the Curve. What I found:
I could long into both, but the page would not display properly on the Curve (and on a Pearl too) but did on the Instinct.
The biggest issue I had with the Instinct is the limitation on the # of contacts. Currently, you get only 600, and for me, that was a deal killer.
