 Welcome to the bottom of the line of the future. The SGH-A717 has all the bare minimum features to reach the summit of what we can call a 3G phone. It has streaming video, advanced music options, stereo Bluetooth and a camera. Still, all of these features come up short. Way short, compared to some of the recent entrants into the multimedia phone market. At $80, it may be an affordable way into the feature phone club, but only users who will appreciate the novelty of the 3G functions will want to sign up. For the rest of us, the experience may wear thin. Release: June 2007. Price: $60.
Pros: Not much. A few basic features, better keys than many flat phones. Good contact list. Long list of preset e-mail accounts.
Cons: Overall very average phone. Poor video experience, below-average music features. Unusable Web browser. No GPS. No music accessories.
