Samsung SGH - X426 / Samsung X427 review

Just immaculate screen!

Samsung X426 / X427 has 128 x 160 UFB (Ultra Fine and Bright) color display with 65k colors. According to Samsung, the UFB screen is "two times more vivid than the previously released STN-LCD (Super-Twisted Nematic LCD)". The display is brilliant indoor, OK outdoor (no direct sunlight). The problem occurs of the screen is exposed on direct sun-light - I barely could see anything. Color and contrast wise it is just excellent - very vibrant colors with excellent contrast. On the negative side, ghosting is very noticeable when playing games or viewing screen animation.

This photo clearly shows how much brighter the screen of Samsung X426 / X427 is compared to Nokia 3650

The Samsung X426 / X427 keys are easy to press with adequate response. The phone also feature 4-way navigational keys, plus a dedicated wap key which I think should not be placed between the nav.keys, where you would expect to have [enter]. The keys are very well illuminated with a distinct blue light.
