Samsung S8000 Jet

The Samsung S8000 Jet is a touchscreen phone that has an easy-to-use interface that positions it between a smartphone and a simple phone.

The user interface is called Touchwiz 2.0 which has a few industry first features mixed in. One of those features is a 6 sided cube which acts as the menu (Launcher) system although it is very similar to the LG Arena’s cube interface. It is activated by pushing a button on the phone and then you use gestures to rotate the cube to the menu system you want. The user interface is also motion based and allows you to tilt the phone in various directions to access certain functions such as speed dial.

Smart Unlock is another interesting feature. What that does is puts a group of letters on the screen. When you unlock your phone you press one of the letters at the same time and a specific feature is accessed. You can set up what letter does what through the phones configuration. Four home screens can be configured on the Samsung Jet and each of the four screens is fully customisable allowing you to group icons where you want them.

The screen on the S8000 Jet measures 3.1″ and is a WVGA AMOLED touchscreen that has a 400 x 800 pixel resolution. An 800MHz Processor powers the phone which provides enough power to make the browser very quick. The browser supports flash, allows you to open up 5 web pages at once as well as downloading multiple files simultaneously.

On to connectivity it has HSDPA, Wi-fi, GPS and Bluetooth which is nothing new and fairly standard on many phones these days. The GPS unit on the phone works along with 3D map navigation software named Samsung Mobile Navigator. 2GB of built in memory can be found on the phone and as can be expected, a microSD slot is also provided which accepts cards up to 16GB in capacity.

A 5 megapixel digital camera is included on the phone that also has the usual blink detection, image stabilisation and auto-focus that we can expect on an advanced phone. Mixed with the GPS you can also Geo-tag your pictures too. The phones camera can capture video at 30 frames per second with a respectable resolution of 720 x 480 pixels. Lowering the resolution allows you to capture at a higher speed for slow motion shots.

The Samsung S8000 Jet is an impressive looking phone and as it has the features of a smartphone but sits between advanced and simple phones it could be just right for those not looking for something too difficult to use.
