Samsung Ace (I325) has been released on the Sprint network. It’s a dual mode CDMA/GSM Smartphone which comes in a slim candy bar form. Samsung Ace runs on Windows Mobile 6.0 OS, but has no touch-sensitive display. It features a full QWERTY keyboard, a 2.3-inch 65000 colors TFT display with 320×240 pixel resolution, a 1.3-megapixel camera with 5x digital zoom lens, 64.0 MB internal memory, microSD card slot, Sprint Music Store, Sprint TV, Sprint Navigation, Bluetooth 2.0, EV-DO, push e-mail capabilities. measures 118 x 59 x 12 mm and weighs 111 g.
Overall the Ace is a very strong entry from Samsung, but the exclusion of Office Mobile is very curious and it loses some points for the keyboard design. Other than that the Ace stacks up well with other Windows Mobile 6 Standard devices. Being a world phone is a major bonus, with even more points for an unlocked SIM slot. As we have come to expect from Samsung the build quality is top notch. While we did not care for the keyboard, those with small hands and fingers may appreciate the narrowness.
