Samsung Solstice II Review
(SGH-A817) Score: 38.9 / 100
Samsung Solstice II is a low end cellphone released some years ago, in 2010, including a 3-inches display and a 2 MP back side camera. But it's time to get into a bit more details.
The Samsung Solstice II has a 262,14 MB internal storage memory, a low amount that may be enough for basic users knowing that it also has an SD extension slot to store songs, pictures and videos.
Even though the Samsung Solstice II has 4.29" long and 2.13 inches wide, it only packs a smaller 3" screen. This time, it seems like Samsung forgot about weight optimization in this 3.35 oz phone. Samsung justmade this phone in color black.
The Samsung Solstice II is only equipped with a 2 MP back camera.
Samsung packed this phone with a good level 3 inches display, and a resolution of 400 x 240 , providing this cellphone with a nice graphical experience. Its display uses TFT yes technology, but it can't detect multi touch gestures.
This cellphone has 3G fast connectivity, over HSDPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. The Samsung Solstice II uses a SIM card to connect to GSM networks.
This cellphone uses a mediocre 1000 mAh Li-Ion removable battery providing the Samsung Solstice II with a not very long battery life. This cellphone has a reported 5 hours talk time and a 250 hours stand by time according to Samsung.
This cellphone is not a good choice considering it is offerred for $ 100, and some similar phones are being sold for much less than that.
