Samsung Touch Screen

There are some great options for touch screen phones for Verizon Wireless. But not every phone is worth a great deal (even if it’s free). This article discusses some of the best touch screen smartphones, and also shows you the best place online to get great deals for both new and existing Verizon customers.

Top Verizon Touchscreen Phones

Verizon has over a dozen touch screen models to choose from. And with Apple’s iPhone becoming available on the Verizon network, it is easy to say they have the best selection in touch screen and smartphones around. Here is a list of the top Verizon phones organized by brand and features.

One main recommendation is to get a Google Android OS-based phone. While comparatively new, it is a proven wireless phone OS, with incredible speed and performance. The Android marketplace of applications will also provide you plenty of entertainment and productiveness tools. All of the phones listed here run on Google Android.

Announced today and apparently not during CES 2008, the new Samsung Touch-Screen F490 looks very interesting from the pictures. The three-band mobile phone features a 3.2-inch display with 262,000 colors, includes a 5 megapixel camera, has 130 MB built-in memory, a microSD card slot and standard 3.5mm jack.Samsung F490 supports HSDPA up to 3.6 Mbps, UMTS 2100, records MPEG4 in QVGA mode at 15fps comes with stereo Bluetooth 2.0 and USB 2.0.

Sounds like a good handset with 115 x 53.5 x 11.8 mm which weighs 102g. No mention on when it’s coming to the US but our sources said that it may be available in Europe first for something around $750 (no contract). See for yourself if it’s a good one.

While everything looks new and shiny and great when displayed in the store, you still have to be cautious of which touchscreen phone you get. Really pay attention to online customer reviews. You could speak with friends and family about their phones, but even then you should take their advice with a grain of salt, depending on how well you know them “as an objective end-user”.

I find that online customer reviews are more “telling”, particularly when several reviews say similar things. This gives you a better idea of what is really great and what is “not-so-great” about a cell phone. Whereas if you get advice from one single person (even from someone you know), it still only represents their one personal viewpoint.

Also remember with Verizon, you have a “14-day Satisfaction Guarantee”, so the first couple weeks, really test out your twist and service. If you have any doubts about the buy of your new phone or service, take reward of this 14-day window. You want to not only get the best deal, but you want to know this will meet and exceed your needs for the next couple years.

Motorola – The Droid models ar a best seller on the Verizon network. The top three Droids are Droid X, Droid Pro and the Droid 2. They ar all similarly in terms of boilersuit features, but the Droid X clearly is the top favorite of the three. The Droid X is solely a touchscreen device, giving it a bigger screen display while remaining fairly comfortable in weight. The Droid Pro has a physical keyboard on the bottom front, while the Droid 2 has a touch screen slider that reveals a full forcible keyboard underneath the touchscreen.
HTC – HTC’s “Incredible” phone is, well… Incredible! While the touchscreen is non as big as the Droid X, the display and resolution is brilliant. And the phone is super fast and well-designed for messaging and social media applications. The major complaint is the short battery life. However many people were satisfied after upgrading to a more powerful battery.
Samsung – They have a couple touchscreen phones that sell very well. The Fascinate and Continuum both run the Android OS platform. The Fascinate is pop for its bright screen, fast performance and the integration of social media applications. Many happy customers amazingly rate the Fascinate higher than the Droid phones.
