Samsung Gem Review

(SCH-I100) Score: 46.2 / 100

Samsung Gem is a mid level device, including a 3.2 megapixels back facing camera, a good processor running at 800 MHz and a 3.2" multi-touch screen.

Samsung decided to design the Samsung Gem using a good 800 MHz processor. The Samsung Gem has a 126,98 MB internal storage memory, a poor amount that may be enough for some basic users considering it also has an SD memory card expansion slot to store songs, photos and videos.

Even though the Samsung Gem is 4.48" long and 2.18 inches wide, it only holds a much smaller 3.2 inches display. It seems like Samsung forgot about weight optimization in this 3.85 ounces cellphone.

This phone has a nice 3.2-inches screen with a 400 x 240 resolution, providing this device with a nice image quality. Its screen uses TFT capacitive technology, and allows multi-touch gestures.

The Samsung Gem only features a 3.2 MP back side camera.

This phone features a mid capacity 1500 mAh Li-Ion battery providing this phone with a poor battery duration. This cellphone has an estimated 800 hours stand by time and a 5 hours talk time according to Samsung.

This phone features wi-fi connection (but it can't share it with other devices around, as a mobile hotspot) and 3G connectivity, using EV-DO A technologies. The Samsung Gem doesn't have a SIM card, because it's not a GSM phone and it works with CDMA carriers.

This cellphone also includes a handful of nice features like Bluetooth (2.1, EDR) and GPS (Global Positioning System), and some sensors likeLight Sensor, Proximity Sensor and Accelerometer.
