Samsung Admire - MetroPCS Mobile Review


The Samsung Admire doesn't look or feel like a luxury device. Made entirely of shiny black plastic, with a textured back panel and ribbed bands running along the sides, this isn't a phone you'll be running to show your friends. But at 4.6 by 2.4 by .5 inches (HWD) and 4.1 ounces, it's compact and easy to hold. The 3.5-inch, 320-by-480-pixel capacitive touch screen looks suitably sharp and bright enough, though certainly not on par with higher end devices. Four clicky hardware function keys sit below the screen. Typing felt somewhat cramped on the on-screen Swype QWERTY keyboard, though dialing numbers was fine.
