Samsung SGH A777

The Samsung SGH A777 is a basic slider phone that comes in blue and red colors. It’s slim and well made, with an alphanumeric keypad underneath the main screen (when the phone slides out). It’s very thin and lightweight and yet has a good sturdy feel. There is a music player shortcut key as well as a toggle, which gives users access to several functions quickly. The backlighting is nice and bright, which is great when you’re stuck somewhere dark such as the subway. There are plenty of great features including PC syncing, web based POP3 email, MP3 music player, and much more.

Pros

• Sturdy design
• Decent feature set for a mid-range phone that includes 3G support, Bluetooth, 1.3 MP camera, GPS support, MP3 player and memory card slot
• Good call quality

Cons

The keys on the keypad feel a little thin, and you have to actually open the slider to use some of the most basic key functions like ending or receiving phone calls. Overall, navigation could be a lot easier by making some of the basic commands available without having to slide the phone open.

Overall

If you’re in search of a solid slider type cell phone, the Samsung SGH A777 is a good choice. The screen is clear and bright, and the phone comes with most of the more modern functions you’d come to expect in a cell phone. It is a great choice for people who want something mid range, without having to pay a whole lot of money. There are also plenty of great music related features with this phone including XM radio mobile, a Billboard music channel, and much more. This makes it a wise choice for people who like to double up their cell phones as a music player.
