Samsung Equinox is equipped with enhanced design features along with integrated GPS sensors for turn –by-turn directions. It supports 3G technology with which it is possible to have data and voice traffic simultaneously.
You can easily shoot videos & transfer it to computers via email or upload it directly to the YouTube application.
Advantages are:
•Decent Photo quality
•Excellent video playback.
•Support Goggle Maps & TeleNav.
•Decent Call quality
Disadvantages are:
•Mediocre Web and Camera capabilities
•Average Speakerphone quality.
•No Q-W-E-R-T-Y keyboard.
•Poor user interface.
•You cant connect headset & charge phone at same time.
Summary
Though Samsung Equinox has average camera , web qualities and without any email service, the only thing that lets drives you to purchase this phone is its look (flap phone) and its price.
