In-Depth Review

What’s Good:

What’s Not Good: Touch sensitive controls are very finicky; End key in an odd place; Call quality only so-so; Camera not as good as original U600

Bottom Line: Samsung brings their Ultra U600 sliderphone to the US in the form of the Helio Mysto.  While Mysto’s thin profile is sexy and Helio’s myriad features are excellent, this handset’s electrostatic touch controls are more trouble than they’re worth.  Helio fans may love Mysto as a companion to their Oceans, but others may look elsewhere.

Super Spiffy phone

Overall Rating:
5 out of 5

By: Mit Hol on Thursday, January 24, 2008
From: Lubbock, TX (United States)
Experience: 5 Days

Pros: Light weight, Slider, friggin sweet display

Cons: Hard to purchase do to Helio's inability to produce

Summary: First of all the weight on this phone is exceptional I have never owned a phone that has been so light and user friendly. The features on the phone are far beyond what I have become fond of with other slider devices including the heat also made by Helio.
