N79 and N82 are great phones. Still, I wouldn’t like to have any of them, as I have the same problem that I had with N95: they are not that high-quality in terms of materials and assembly, as a 300 euro handset should be. I just have a brand new Made in Finland (the better one) N82, and the poor guy has ts bottom left corner crack when typing an SMS and I need no magnifying glass to spot the gaps. Samsung i7110 is targeted at users like me: the new model is made of metal. Nokia fans could immediately say that E75 is made of metal as well, but i7110 has a metal front panel as well. It’s still not as large as N82. as although it has quite a large weight (125 grams), it’s still only 12.9 mm, opposed to N82’s 17.3 mm. Of course it’s not an ultracompact handset, as its two other size parameters are 118 x 52 millimeters, but thanks to being quite slim, it still won’t make the impression of a huge phone.
The design continues the U900/U800 line, metal front panel, metal keypad, metal back panel, while on the sides there are soft plastic parts. The display has a diagonal of 2.6”, QVGA resolution and it’s made with AM-OLED technology, which I dare to say that it’s the de-facto technology for the future if the manufacturers want to focus on users’ needs. In terms of image quality i7110 is much better than any model with a TFT display, the colors are bright, brightness is good and we won’t have problem reading the screen even in the middle of Sahara, as heavy sunlight won’t really affect it. The display seems large as its frame is rather slim, there is barely some space left on the top for the speaker and the secondary camera used for video calls. Unfortunately the main controls are victims of this: the optical touchpad/d-pad hybrid in the center is very easy to use, but the buttons surrounding it are very small. The design of the clear (C) key is the most terrible, it’s right near the right softkey and the call end key, I’ve pressed it accidentally lots of times while wandering around the menu – fortunately we can’t delete the main menu items, or else I would have done it. The numeric part is okay, it has a proper size and the keys have a good pressure point, and have a uniform, white backlight, just like the other keys above them.
The back panel has only its center part made of metal (the one that can be taken off), but that’s brushed metal, which spices of the design a lot. This means that there are two relatively slim plastic parts on the top and the bottom, the one has the handsfree speaker, while the other holds the button used for taking the metal part off. In the center we can see the 5 megapixel camera with a dual-LED flash. There is no mirror for taking self-portraits, but we won’t feel the need, as the back panel will work as a mirror.
The top part is empty, one the left there are only the volume control keys and the charger/headset/data cable connector, which is not standard microUSB, but the latest proprietary Samsung connector. This is protected by a sliding plastic door, which is an outstanding solution, but we might ask why aren’t the volume control keys on the left, as when taking pictures – or when reviewing them – that would be a great place for using them to zoom in/out. The bottom is also blank, while on the right there is the camera’s shoot key, a hotkey and the protected microSD slot that supports high capacity (SDHC) cards too.
