First spotted last April at CTIA, this classy handset comes with EV-DO data capabilities, Bluetooth, an external OLED, and a speakerphone.

This black-and-silver clamshell made a great impression when we first saw it last April during CTIA in Las Vegas (back when it was known as the SCH-A960). Most striking is the small, round external OLED, which displays the time in a variety of formats, including an elegant Roman-numeral analog clock and a red-and-blue digital clock, as well as song info when you're cranking your tunes, while a small silver button just below the display lets you pause your music. The A960 comes loaded with a solid feature set, including EV-DO capabilities for speedy Web browsing and music downloads, a 1.3-megapixel camera, Bluetooth, PictBridge photo printing, and a speakerphone.

Specifications

  • CDMA/EV-DO
  • 1.3-megapixel camera
  • Bluetooth
  • PictBridge photo priniting
  • 262,000-color, 176 x 220-pixel internal LCD
