Ask Engadget: Best current smartphone for under $200? {Engadget}
Jan 2nd 2009 8:56AM I really feel that the Samsung Epix is the best chioce. It is completely reliable and I have never had an experience where it bugs out. The battery life is amazing, the processing is quick and easy, its sturdy, not too heavy, very easy for the average person to use. There are some brilliant devices out there but they also lack usuablity in some aspects, or they're missing something as simple as WiFi.
WriteSense digital pen tech for capacitive touchscreens announced {Engadget Mobile}
Dec 18th 2008 7:48AM I don't see what the big deal is with capacitive touch screens either. I personally don't like them, and it makes me mad that a lot of people feel that they will become the dominant choice in future device models. I am a girl and, like a lot of other girls, I have nails. Having a capacitive touch screen on devices such as the IPhone makes it nearly impossible for me to use because of my nails. A lot of girls that I know also experience this. I feel that resistive touch screens have more benefits. You can use your nail, a stylus, and even your finger tip if you need to. Capacitive just basically limits you to your finger tip. It drives me nuts. I just try and try to understand why people love capacitive so much, but I would personally never buy a phone that used a capacitive touch screen. Touch screen phones have been all I have bought in the past three years, and I go through A LOT of phones.
