Recently I had the opportunity of testing a New Samsung S8000 Jet Phone.

The Samsung JET, with AMOLED technology and an 800MHz Application Processor, is smarter than a Smartphone. Befitting its name, the Samsung Jet boasts an 800 MHz processor, and also comes with WiFi and HSDPA high-speed downloads. There’s a large 3.1″ 800 x 480 pixel display, a 5 megapixel camera and GPS too.

Combining great technology with superior looks, this touch-screen phone is the latest in Samsung’s line of devices. The menu system is laid out very carefully and allows the user to select which option they want very easily. There are three buttons at the bottom which speed up the interaction process. Call and hang-up buttons are onboard obviously, but there is a central button which speeds you back to the central menu and gets you back to the area from which you can access all the options.
