We like:
Interface; slim design; good screen; easy to use keypad; Windows Mobile 6.1; HSDPA for fast Web access; decent battery life
We don't like:
Proprietary headphone port; no Wi-Fi or GPS; poor camera; not much memory; expensive for what it is
CNET.co.uk judgement:
The Samsung i200 is one of those devices that are instantly appealing due to its slim profile, responsive keypad, Windows Mobile 6.1 and HSDPA support. It's only when you discover the omissions that a touch of disappointment sets in -- it lacks Wi-Fi and GPS, uses a proprietary port for headphones and its 2-megapixel camera is not what you'd call groundbreaking
