I wouldn't go that extreme. BlackJacks are pretty solid. IMHO. And I just got a Red one on Ebay for 84$ shipped. But they said it shuts off on it's own...

At least on AT&T.  It's a close race between that and the Motorola Q9h.<br><br>However, I saw this on another blog - the phones they rated tops are mostly older phones.  It seems that this report is just out of date and out of touch with the latest technology.<br><br>I wouldn't rate this as tops - but I would definitely put it up there... and given the price (many times free at retailers) it is an excellent deal!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jeff]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 18th 2008 10:35AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Samsung BlackJack II tops Consumer Reports' list of best smartphones]]></title><link>http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/12/18/samsung-blackjack-ii-tops-consumer-reports-list-of-best-smartph/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/12/18/samsung-blackjack-ii-tops-consumer-reports-list-of-best-smartph/</guid><description><![CDATA[Do they cover devices just within the US ? if yes then only those handsets pushed by carriers would succeed in making the list ! As you mentioned the $80 price tag makes it real attractive over something like the Iphone or even the Palm Treo with a $500+ tag attached to it.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[mak618]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 18th 2008 1:59PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Samsung BlackJack II tops Consumer Reports' list of best smartphones]]></title><link>http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/12/18/samsung-blackjack-ii-tops-consumer-reports-list-of-best-smartph/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/12/18/samsung-blackjack-ii-tops-consumer-reports-list-of-best-smartph/</guid><description><![CDATA[Just another example of Consumer Report's ineptitude.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[carcomptoy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 18th 2008 11:20AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Samsung BlackJack II tops Consumer Reports' list of best smartphones]]></title><link>http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/12/18/samsung-blackjack-ii-tops-consumer-reports-list-of-best-smartph/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/12/18/samsung-blackjack-ii-tops-consumer-reports-list-of-best-smartph/</guid><description><![CDATA[Agreed.

Obnoxious build quality on that phone, hollow cheap, unrefined, uncoated plastic. I have no idea where Nokia gets off releasing such poorly constructed handsets (the N95 is the same way, cheap flibsy plastic, cheap sliding mechanism).]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[fkl]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 18th 2008 6:14PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Samsung BlackJack II tops Consumer Reports' list of best smartphones]]></title><link>http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/12/18/samsung-blackjack-ii-tops-consumer-reports-list-of-best-smartph/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/12/18/samsung-blackjack-ii-tops-consumer-reports-list-of-best-smartph/</guid><description><![CDATA[@FKL<br>You sir, fail at life. <br>I am not even going to bother replying to your statement.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[thedesolate1]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2008 1:07AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Samsung BlackJack II tops Consumer Reports' list of best smartphones]]></title><link>http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/12/18/samsung-blackjack-ii-tops-consumer-reports-list-of-best-smartph/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/12/18/samsung-blackjack-ii-tops-consumer-reports-list-of-best-smartph/</guid><description><![CDATA[wow FKL must own an Iphone. enough said]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[boss-hogg]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2008 9:35PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Samsung BlackJack II tops Consumer Reports' list of best smartphones]]></title><link>http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/12/18/samsung-blackjack-ii-tops-consumer-reports-list-of-best-smartph/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/12/18/samsung-blackjack-ii-tops-consumer-reports-list-of-best-smartph/</guid><description><![CDATA[I sent this in tips.

But it has one major achilles heel: the jog wheel. When you get a good one, it works great (and the latest software allows you to set the jog wheel speed/sensitivity). However, most of them turn out to be jerky/stuck/skid. It's a mechanical wheel rather than a touch wheel, and I believe there's some manufacturing/design issues that cause most of them to be defective and hence worthless.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[bucky]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 18th 2008 4:43PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Samsung BlackJack II tops Consumer Reports' list of best smartphones]]></title><link>http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/12/18/samsung-blackjack-ii-tops-consumer-reports-list-of-best-smartph/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/12/18/samsung-blackjack-ii-tops-consumer-reports-list-of-best-smartph/</guid><description><![CDATA[Okay now Im convinced that consumer reports is crooked and paid off. First they insult the Kuro and now this piece of shit phone gets rated number 1. Maybe if they spent 3 months with it they wouldn't be thinking that. It concerns me how lightly these publications make such statements without thoroughly testing the products. I guess our standards have gotten that low?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[thedesolate1]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 18th 2008 5:02PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Samsung BlackJack II tops Consumer Reports' list of best smartphones]]></title><link>http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/12/18/samsung-blackjack-ii-tops-consumer-reports-list-of-best-smartph/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/12/18/samsung-blackjack-ii-tops-consumer-reports-list-of-best-smartph/</guid><description><![CDATA[Consumer Reports hates on the Prius with a lot of erroneous statistics such as high depreciation rate.  It's 5 years later, CR is still wrong and won't own up to it, so no way can they be accurate on any tech especially about the BJ2.<br><br>Hell, even their top-rated microwaves aren't sold in most stores even.  What kind of rating system is that?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[NuShrike]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2008 4:09AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Samsung BlackJack II tops Consumer Reports' list of best smartphones]]></title><link>http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/12/18/samsung-blackjack-ii-tops-consumer-reports-list-of-best-smartph/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/12/18/samsung-blackjack-ii-tops-consumer-reports-list-of-best-smartph/</guid><description><![CDATA[The cost versus the functionality does pan out pretty well, even though I hate to admit it. It's an alright phone overall out of what we sell, but what really must bug me is the camera quality, haha. (I still prefer the Q9 to this in that area of handsets.)<br><br>The upshot is they didn't pick the Pantech Duo. Now THAT is a terrible phone.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Pete]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2008 11:02AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Samsung BlackJack II tops Consumer Reports' list of best smartphones]]></title><link>http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/12/18/samsung-blackjack-ii-tops-consumer-reports-list-of-best-smartph/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/12/18/samsung-blackjack-ii-tops-consumer-reports-list-of-best-smartph/</guid><description><![CDATA[had the bj II for quite a while now.. all i can say is i really like this phone cuz it's a winmo phone nd in my opinion, it looks really nice. nd i've dropped it A LOT OF TIMES nd surprisingly it has no scratches, even though i dont use any case for it. also got the new 6.1 update for it nd stuff... looks amazing. but probably gonna upgrade to a touch screen phone soon enough :D]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[slr_sd]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 20th 2008 7:34PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
