Design and Build Quality of Samsung Corby S3653

The stylish entry level touchscreen, Samsung Corby S3653 has a 2.8” capacitive TFT touchscreen with QVGA resolution. The curvy body gives it an attractive design and fits comfortably in your hand.

User Interface and Comfort to Use Samsung Corby S3653

This device is not a smartphone, so the user interface is based on Samsung's basic phone options. It does have their TouchWiz and Cartoon UI which enables you to customize the screen with functions that you may use more frequently.

Telephony and Phonebook

You are able to store up to 1000 contacts and create a picture attached to a contact in your address book.

Messaging and E-mails

The Corby has SMS, MMS, and email support. The virtual keyboard offers T9 for a better texting and email experience. The capacitive touchscreen only requires a touch to input a click, which makes it easy to use.

Gallery, Photo Viewer, and Video Player

You are able to expand the memory up to 8GB through a microSD slot. The actual quality of the gallery and video player are about average.

Samsung Corby S3653 Music Player and FM radio

There is an FM radio with RDS on the Corby. The music player supports MP3, AAC, AAC+, E-AAC+, WMA, and AMR. Along with this wide variety of music format support, you can also use a Find Music feature. This allows you to find the album, track, artist, and genre of your music.

Samsung Corby S3653 Still Camera and Image Quality

Built with a 2 megapixel fixed-focus camera, the Corby also has a smile detection feature. The actual camera quality is not up to par with what you would expect from even a camera of its resolution.

Video Camera and Video Quality

Video recording is available at QVGA at 15fps. It’s not the greatest, nor the worst in terms of quality. It’s there in case you need to use it, though you will probably opt for another option if you have other electronics available to you.

Samsung Corby S3653 Connectivity Options

This Quad band GSM/Edge device is available on 850, 900 1800, and 1900 bands. There is also Bluetooth support for up to 2.1 with A2DP. The Corby also supports USB 2.0 connectivity.

Organizer and Other Utility Tools

There are all the standard organizer tools available on the Corby. This includes calendar, alarm clock (up to 10 different alarms), calculator, memos, notes, and to-do lists. Each organization tool has a widget that you put on your home screen for easy access.

Web browser and Applications

There is a web browser on the Corby that is based on Java. What's also nice is that the Corby has widgets and support for social networking sites such as Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, and more. You also have access to YouTube, Flickr, Picasa, and other SNS sites from the handset.

Distinctive Features

An added bonus to the Corby is the office document viewer. It works very well for a non-smartphone that has Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and PDF file support.

Verdict

Samsung Corby S3653 is a great device for those looking for a simple and affordable touchscreen. It will most certainly appeal to the younger crowd with its social networking features and ability to change out the color through fashion jackets.
