hi this is chun when and today we're going to take a look at the samsung intrepid on sprint's network so first we're going to do an unboxing and then we're going to take a hardcore tour and then compare the device to other devices on the market right now so let's go ahead and do the unboxing of the intrepid so in the box when you open it up you have the phone go ahead and take it out and put it aside for justice back in we have a charger which is actually an energy star rated charger so it actually conserves energy when it's not charging which is a great thing for the environment we have a USB sync cable to connect to your computer head thumbs and some manuals go ahead and take a look and see what's included in the manual sheet of paper asking you to give your feedback to spring about your new phone looks like some terms of the Terms of Service Agreement a pouch to recycle your old phone which is a great green move made by Sprint and Samsung product registration a getting started manual and a manual on how to set up your email guides to some of the features and then a basic guide it should also be noted that most of these guys are also available in Spanish on the reverse side as well so let's go ahead and put this all signed and do a hardware tour of the samsung intrepid the intrepid is a windows mobile 6.5 device that has a full qwerty keyboard on the bottom hardware navigation keys and a two-and-a-half-inch resistive touchscreen display so unlike a blackberry it actually has the keyboard and eight screen on the front it also has this tungsten dark chrome that surrounds the front face on the right side of the device you have the lanyard loop a power button soft reset pole a camera button and the stylists is actually on the site on this device rather than on the bottom so you pull it out and it's a collapsible stylist on the bottom you have a clean surface with a microphone and then on the other side of the device you have a micro USB charging port underneath this plastic flap up and down volume controls on the top you have a three-and-a-half millimeter headphone jack go ahead and take a look at the back of the device you have a self-portrait near a 3.2 megapixel camera speaker grill and then we're going to remove the battery and see what's below you have a fourteen eighty milliamp per hour battery which is of sizable sizable capacity and a sim card for global roaming so this device will perform on sprint cdma ev-do rev a network at home and will be on gsm / HSPA networks for global roaming let's go ahead and compare the device to other devices here we have the blackberry tour compared to the tour the device is actually slightly wider and longer than the tour it's about the same thickness the larger size is actually great because you have this large contiguous keyboard there are no spacing between the keyboard but it actually works quite well next to its cousin the samsung jack on tese network this device is actually a windows mobile 6.1 standard device meaning that it has the keyboard but no touchscreen the samsung jack is a lot narrower and a little bit shorter but about the same thickness both devices feel about the same in weight and over here we have the verizon wireless omaggio which doesn't have a keyboard but has a full three point six inch touchscreen compared to the imagio the Sprint intrepid is actually still a little bit wider although it's tapered back does help make it feel a little bit slimmer and it is still a little bit taller the intrepid the biggest of all the devices actually feels good it's actually light it doesn't feel heavy the keyboard actually has a nice click to it and we're going to cover some of the shortcuts that the keyboard offers in the software tour as well that could screen is actually a cue vga resolution so it's 320 x 240 in landscape mode and you can also scroll through so this is chun win and we're taking a first look at the samsung intrepid thanks for watching
