First Samsung for Virgin Mobile cuts right to core with style, affordability.The new Slash by Samsung knows it’s no iPhone. It’s not trying to be all things to the most hardcore technophiles.Instead, the Slash for Virgin Mobile “cuts right to the core” for all our basic cell phone needs without muddying itself up with advanced features its youthful users won’t use.
The Slash, which marks the first time Samsung has designed a phone for prepaid leader Virgin Mobile, has successfully married simplicity with style, a healthy feature set and a low price
The cheap price point is designed to be especially friendly for the youthful Virgin Mobile spender. Don’t expect the Slash, though, to knock your socks off with the latest and greatest technologies.
There’s no touch screen. Its screen size doesn’t make it a prime candidate to watch a full-length mobile movie. It doesn’t have iPod-like software for music on the go. There’s no full keypad for fast mobile emailing.
