Review: Samsung Steel
Samsung Steel Review
The Samsung Steel mobile phone is exclusively only available to the Vodafone network provider. This handset has a smooth slide design mechanism which exudes style and sophistication making it very appealing to the eye. The Samsung Steel mobile phone comprises a large 2.2 inch TFT screen which uses 16 million colours with 240 x 320 pixel resolutions making for fantastic colourful viewing. The Steel compacts neatly, helped by the slide mechanism. The dimensions of the Samsung steel are 104.2mm x 48.9mm x 14.2mm, it weighs in at 190g (heavy for a phone) due the phone being made with rich metal materials. The Samsung soul is a similar looking phone, just of a higher spec. The user can expect to gain up to 4.7 hours of talk time and up to 568 hours of stand by with one full charge up of this very stunning looking mobile phone.

Samsung Steel – Summary
The Samsung Steel mobile phone is a very sophisticated looking piece of equipment. It comes with many great features/functions that all user will enjoy. It doesn't have the best camera unlike other Samsung mobile phones that are currently available on the market but it is still a camera and does the trick. It is not one of the highest spec mobile phones to hit the market but it is an entry level mobile phone and is half the price of the big hitters. Essentially, you pay for what you get.
