The Samsung Access is a good phone for watching AT&T's mobile TV service. It isn't great for making calls. There are better phones for messaging. Web browsing is better than average, but the camera is atrocious. Music is unremarkable, but present. Above all, though, if all you want is a phone that can help you watch "Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader" on your train ride home, this is a good choice. We'd like some more programming, but the networks are fairly represented, with one exception, and the included movie and music hodge-podge channels have some fun programs in the lineup. There will be better phones to come, but this is still a nice start for mobile TV. Release: May 2008. Price: $150.
Pros: Mobile TV looks much better than streaming clips, more like real television. Phone is simply designed, like a small TV set.
Cons: Call quality lacking. Other features good, but seem like also-rans. TV quality wasn't perfect, and we're already missing advanced features, like DVR.
