Samsung A900 (aka the Blade) - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #31760 74 posts Started by amysmojo
Soooo I checked this out @ a local store....pretty nice! Thinking about getting it. Ive had my LG MM 535 slider since June....time for an upgrade wink.gif teehee!!

I know this is just a knock off of the Motorola Razor but I like this Blade phone BETTER! I never was a big fan of that big LIP on the Razor when its open bleh

Anyone tried this phone out??? It hasnt even been around for a month yet so I doubt it....if I get it Ill let you all know how I like it!

The internet is like 700 times faster than the older sprint phones...Woo!

I have both in stock at my job and there both pretty neat. I personally like the a920 better, but if your a razr fan then go with the A900. Either way you cant go wrong. I just like how the a920 looks since im not a razr fan. Oh, and btw, the external caller ID on the a900 is EXTREMLY small, which im not a fan of.

i like that a900, its not bad, I prefer my black razr better in terms of looks though. The camera on motorolla phones always suck though, and i dont really use the internet so i couldnt tell you how that goes, but everything else on the razr is great, I love this phone.
thats what im talking about, i hate that ugly lip on that thing @ the bottom when its flipped open bleh!

I guess you need to see the A900 in person to appreciate it tongue.gif

I like the simple flat design of the A900...BLACK & sleek & simple...perfect IMO biggrin.gif

just a little update, I purchased the a920, and my god has it worked wonders. Comes with the data cable and earphones, and all u have 2 do is buy a $50 512 micro SD card for all your music and your good to go. I love this phone. A920 > A900

I'm wondering if i can switch from Nextel to Sprint because Sprint now owns Nextel and I wont have to pay a penalty.

Nice is there anyway I can trade my 850 for a Sprint phone?

MyFlickrMyeBay_Perpetual Aperture_
sprint (not at this time that I know of) is doing phone trade in's, but go to your local radioshack or sprint store and they can set you up with a pretty nice phone for a decent price. They have the Samsung MM-8300 for $99, which is pretty decent, I had that phone before my a920.

what about fair & flexible? i thought nextel was the expensive one lol
Evidently not, i have a 39.99 plan with 500 mins unltd. 2 way and free nights/weekends.

MyFlickrMyeBay_Perpetual Aperture_
the best plan (not sure if its available in other markets besides miami is 45.99/1000 minutes, unlimited nights and weekends and all the basics. Oh and the fair and flexable is just for when u go over ur minutes, instead of 40 cents a minute its $5 for ever 100 mins over ur alotted mins.

i see too many poeple with the razor. And i agree with amy, the fat lip kills it.
no way! the bottom part makes a good grip for ur palm because its thin everywhere else. and because it sticks out a lil bit, it catches ur voice better. and because the top is shorter than the bottom, you dont have this rediculous empty space above and below the screen. also when its closed, the screen half dissapears into the keypad half so its flat at the bottom.

not to mention the flat and sexy chemically-etched keypad and pure blue electro-luminescence panel found in the verizon version. not the ugly greenish blue lighting in cingular and tmobile's, lol.

The nice thing about the razr is the thin"ness". Put it in your pocket and it's barely noticeable. Unlike those bigger phones that bulge... Hey... if I'm gonna bulge... it ain't gonna be no phone right?

Camel Toe? lololol

Get your hands on a razr and the A900 (just stop by any radioshack) and look at the 2 and compare features, the A900 RAPES the razr a new a$$hole. The screen is 10x nicer, more features and doesnt have that extra fat lip at the bottom. A900 - 1, RAZR - 0.

fair enough... ;] actually... i'm not gonna say anything bad about the "blade" cause I haven't check it out yet... but as it is... I don't like rip-off designs.
