What you need to know

Tags: samsung, text files, touchscreen, stabilisation
We like:
Huge touchscreen; novelty value; competent camera; large memory
We don't like:
No frills devices; lacklustre tour guide
CNET.co.uk judgement:
The Samsung i7 is fun and unusual, but the twist-screen gimmick may be lost on some. Camera, MP3 and multimedia playback functions are from the no-frills shelf, but save you juggling multiple devices. The high price tag, however, is only justified if you value convenience and novelty value over great pictures
