If you follow design trends in cell phones even just a bit, you'll notice that slim is definitely in. It all started of course with the Motorola Razr V3, which made its debut in late 2004. Since that time, the Razr has rocketed to popularity, and as 2005 closed, it was the top-selling cell phone of the year. To compete with Motorola's winner, Samsung countered in December with its own Razr emulator, the MM-A900. And now, Samsung takes the slim factor a step further with the slider SGH-T809 for T-Mobile. The result is a stylish handset that packs a wealth of features into a compact form factor. Although the ergonomics could be refined and overall performance was patchy, it is a solid phone that should appeal to mobile fanatics.

The SGH-T809 casts a stylish look. Like most Samsungs, the SGH-T809 has a striking display. With support for 262,000 colors, the 320x240-pixel screen measures a generous 2 inches diagonally and shows the date, the time, battery life, signal strength, and caller ID. The display is great for viewing the simple but flashy menus (there's a choice of two styles), and though you can change the backlighting time and the brightness, there's no contrast setting. Font settings vary, depending on which text you're talking about. For the display font (the time and the date), you can change the style and the color but not the size, while with the dialing text, you can change the font size and the color, as well as the background color.

The phone's features on the Samsung SGH-T809 include a thin volume rocker, a charger/headset port on the left spine, and a TransFlash slot on the right spine. It should be noted that the SGH-T809 trumps both the Razr and the MM-A900 by including an expandable memory card slot. At the top of the phone is the camera lens, which swivels 180 degrees from the back to the front. Curiously, however, the lens rotates down rather than up, which means it takes pictures in just two directions (front and back). We wondered why it didn't move the other way, as it would have enabled us to take a picture pointing straight up.

The mp3 player's interface is user-friendly and attractive, with a number of graphics to match the playing music and two interface designs. You can personalize the Samsung SGH-T809 with different wallpaper, color themes, and sounds. If you want more options, you can download them through the WAP 2.0 wireless Web browser. Gaming options are plentiful, with five tiles included: Forgotten Warrior, Freekick, Arch Angel, Tetris, and Block Breaker Deluxe. As always, if you want more choices, you'll have to buy them from T-Mobile.
