Samsung Juke SCH-u470

Samsung Juke SCH-u470
Open Angle Closed Angle Back

review

You can't escape the television and print ads: Allegedly, Verizon's new Samsung Juke is the essence of cool. It's certainly a cute, unusual-looking phone—a narrow, swiveling little chunk of plastic that looks more like a large flash-based MP3 player than a phone. And that's the point. If the LG Voyager is Verizon's version of the iPhone, the Samsung Juke is Verizon's iPod shuffle equivalent—in that it's short on features.
