subject: Advantage Of The Samsung Monte [print this page] So, thinking of buying Samsung's latest and cheap touch screen mobile phone? The Samsung Monte probably came up as one of your choices. It's no wonder because the Samsung S5620 aka Monte is available on almost all UK carriers: Vodafone, O2, and Orange. I don't know about other sources yet but I'm sure T-Mobile and 3 will soon follow.
So, what's the advantage of buying the Monte over Samsung's other offerings such as the Genio Touch or Tocco Lite or even LG's cheap offering such as the LG Pop and LG Cookie? Well, the Samsung S5620 has a 3 inch capacitive touchscreen, 3G, WiFi, and GPS. These features are almost the same features you can find on the iPhone 3G but the S5620 is definitely cheaper.
Of course the Monte is not a smartphone, just a feature phone. Most of the apps you can download are just java games, unlike other smarpthones which have dedicated marketplace apps. Though the Monte is not a smartphone, Samsung Monte Reviews have hailed its great audio quality and fast scrolling. The 3 megapixel camera though it doesn't have flash or autofocus produces good quality photos, typical of Samsung.
And the greatest advantage of buying the Samsung S5620 Monte? It's definitely cheaper than a smartphone. Most mobile contracts for the Samsung Monte is offering this for free at a low monthly contract of 15. So if you want 3G, WiFi, GPS, and a touchscreen mobile phone at half of the iPhone's price, the Samsung Monte is the definite advantage.
