Samsung Continuum Galaxy S Review
By Blake Sanders on July 27th, 2011
The Samsung Continuum Galaxy S is an Android phone that is unique because it comes with two screens. The secondary screen is primary meant to provide a constant flow of information. The only downside to this design is that with a secondary screen, you do get a smaller primary display.
If you are looking for a Galaxy series phone that is smaller and more compact, you’ll like the Samsung Continuum Galaxy S smartphone. This handset measures 4.9 x 2.3 x 0.5 inches and weighs 4.4 ounces. This phone is perfect for slipping into your pocket or handbag. At the top of this phone is a 3.4-inch Super AMOLED touchscreen. The secondary screen is below and it measures 1.8-inches. The smaller screen will stream information in real time from your social networking sites, plus news and weather feeds.
Some additional apps that come with the Samsung Continuum Galaxy S smartphone include Bing Maps, Skype Mobile, Blockbuster Mobile, as well as Kindle, and many more. A few of the basic features that come with this phone include a speakerphone, conference calling, voice command, visual voice mail, as well as text and multimedia messaging.
With the Samsung Continuum Galaxy S you’ll get several messaging and social networking options, including email support, as well as apps for popular social networking like Facebook and Twitter. This phone also comes with 3G, WiFi, and GPS.
For multimedia features the Samsung Continuum Galaxy S comes with a nice media player so that you can listen to music and watch videos right from your phone. There is also a built in 5-megapixel camera that records HD video, as well as takes good quality still photos.
The call quality that you get with the Continuum is fairly good, though you may encounter times when the person on the other ends sounds a little muffled. The battery is rated for 7 hours of talk time and up to 13 days of standby.
