Basic functions
I won’t write too much about the phonebook, it’s just like on any other Windows Mobile handset. I personally think that search is unbeatable: you don’t even have to enter, just start typing the name like in T9 and I instantly get a perfectly filtered list of results from which I can choose whatever I want. It’s very fast, it’s very comfortable. Goodbye touchkeys!
Messaging is also the usual one, but there is a really nice feature that I just couldn’t get bored of, it’s called SMS Ticker. This makes a custom writing paper appear for incoming messages on the standby screen, with the sender’s name filled in and part of the message displayed.
It’s just a click and we’re already at Windows Mobile’s messaging interface where there is another small treat to make everyday messaging a better experience. i200 (just like many other phones nowadays) displays messaging with a partner in a chat-like display, which makes reviewing messaging history much easier. There is only one thing that annoyed me, which was that the phone always wanted to make me use the German T9, which resulted in words like “üblen”, which I couldn’t even find in the dictionary. No matter, I’ve sent the message, I weren’t really in a fully conscious state then and a ROM upgrade will probably fix this annoying thing.
The calendar has nothing extra, besides being perfect. Office documents can be edited (this is one of the new features of WM 6.1), we have a PDF reader and lots of Samsung applications. These include the fine calculator, the stopwatch, the world clock and the speed dialer that is very easy to set up. With Smart Search we can go looking for word(s) in all kinds of content, while the function of Smart Converter is pretty easy to guess, I think.
