hey guys it's brandon minuman from pocketnow.com and this is part one of the video review of the samsung SGH I 620 also known as the Black Jack slider now if you watch the unboxing video you may have noticed that the device came with two batteries and I was wondering why well one is the standard battery and one is the extended battery the standard battery which is very thin i should add take a look at this very thin is 850 milliamp hours whereas the extended battery which is not much thicker is about fifteen hundred million bowers now if only samsung would get good at optimizing battery life they wouldn't have to include two batteries but until they do we have an extended battery to use so let's put the battery in the device the SIM card goes on the bottom right corner there snaps in and there we go now on the front there are six heat sensitive buttons and their heat sensitive like the LG chocolate so you can't press a button with a pen you actually to actually use a finger and the sensitivity is pretty good on these I'll talk about that later also in the front is this rotary scroll wheel which takes the place of a side scroll wheel and also doubles as a d-pad so you can do up down in the side to side and ok is in the center turn the device over to the side here we have the micro SD slot which is hidden by a little flap and then we have the volume up and down button going over to the top we have a power button and a nice chrome strip along the top and on the other side is a profile switcher button and usually if you have a smartphone you know that the power button usually opens up the profile switcher but in this case there's a button dedicated to that and then there is the charging port also syncing port and audio port it doesn't have a standard headphone jack going over to the bottom we have the microphone and flipping over to the back we have stereo speakers and I can confirm that the stereo speakers actually makes music sound more clear though not loud for example the the speaker one on the on the I 620 isn't as loud as it is on the blackjack even though it has two speakers not sure why that is and something that bugs me is that there's an advertisement sir for samsung's website on the bottom I thought it was enough to have their name here not there to come on samsung now I mentioned that the keyboard on the I 620 was the same as the Black Jack and it is it looks exactly the same the slight difference is that the keys on the blackjack are raised more if you can see a profile there compared to the I 620 which are pretty shallow and I find that the shallow keys are actually more difficult to type on than the blackjack finally I should mention that on the front in the upper right corner is a front-facing video camera should you have access to a network that allows for video calls I do not so I will not be using that feature so that's part one of the video review of the samsung SGH I 620
