Samsung Star 3G is a 3G version of its popular Star phone. These phones – Star , Star 3G and Beat DJ were announced few months ago. We take a look at the Star 3G in this review with a bunch of photos of the phone. The phone uses TouchWiz technology for an intuitive touch experience . The Accelerometer enables the display orientation to rotate automatically .

Display and Built

The phone has a really big 2.8 inch touchscreen display. It might not have stunning looks but it is very thin at a mere 13mm and easily fits into a pocket

The display works fine both indoors and outdoors under the sun. While the 240×320 display seems big, it leaves you craving for a larger screen. There is a Video Calling camera in the front and the earpiece has a metal finish.

Below the display , we have 3 keys – call , joystick and hang up.

On the right we have the camera button and the lock button.

On the left we have the volume rocker keys

Camera

There is a 3.2 MP Camera at the back with LED flash. There is a Photo slidehow app that lets you browse through the captured photos. You can even edit the photos on the phone . Video recording is possible at 15 frames per second. Camera quality is not top notch and is just OK.

Conclusion

The Samsung Star and Star 3G have a lot in common but the plain vanilla Star seems to be a much better buy than the 3G.
