I'm Jessica Belcourt for cnet.com this is your first look at the Samsung Galaxy appeal now this is an AT&T go phone it's a prepaid phone and one of the interesting things about it is it is a texting phone with a keyboard right here keyboard is spacious and roomy which is great but unfortunately it wasn't very comfortable for my fingers when I started composing longer messages I felt like I really want it to stop there is definitely a virtual keyboard on here you've got a couple choices there swipe there's the Android keyboard and there's the Samsung keyboard as well screen size is fairly small it's 3.2 inches which makes it compact I'm just a basic screen here the specs are pretty modest there's a 3.2 megapixel camera on the back there's an 800 megahertz processor running the show it is 3G only it's also powered by Android 2.3 Gingerbread so it may not be upgradable to android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich one thing I noticed about the camera which has no flash and no autofocus is that you can get some pretty good shots out of it if you get really lucky and set to focus yourself also if there's an abundance of natural light but you might just end up with some pretty bad photos as well the galaxy appeal is gonna cost 148 dollars and eighty eight cents on June 5th at Walmart and it will cost $149.99 at AT&T stores on June 15th I'm Jessica Dahl Courtin for Cena this is the samsung galaxy appeal in a dainty gopher
