Review of Sprint Samsung Instinct S30

Review of Sprint  Samsung Instinct S30

Media
Samsung Instinct s30 comes with fantastic media support. Unfortunately, you’ll have to get used to using separate applications to access your music, videos and pictures. We’d like to see all media integrated into a single media player/viewer, but again, this is not a smartphone.

You can download songs through the Sprint Music store, games and the like are available through another Sprint store. You can keep up with NASCAR through the NASCAR application. You can even listen to radio. Sprint is big on pushing their own-branded services, and the S30’s limited UI makes sure you play in Big Yellow’s sandbox. We’re not too keen on that.

Camera
The camera of  Samsung Instinct s30 is basic. The first time we fired it up, we got a “Fuzzy picture warning,” which we thought was kind of cool. But, after a few minutes playing with the camera, we realized there weren’t many imaging features to play with. Check that, there were no imaging features to play with - reminds us of the iPhone’s camera.

Picture quality is par for a 2.0-megapixel camera. Viewing and sending pictures and video is as simple and intuitive as the rest of the S30’s UI.
