hey guys it's brandon minimun from pocket now calm and this is part three of the video review of the samsung SGH I 620 also known as the Black Jack slider today we're going to talk about software this is the today's screen that comes on the device it's made by samsung and it has several tabs along the bottom so I'm going to start at the first one which is email right there on the left and you can access your your SMS MMS or email from the screen if we click to the right we can access our calendar we can see the upcoming appointments though if you click on one of these items it doesn't take you to that appointment it just takes you to the calendar it should actually take you to the appointment but it doesn't to the right of that we have the media player if you have a microSD card inserted to the right of that is alarms and to the right of that is call history it'll show you missed calls there I kind of like this this today's screen I don't like how you have to click so much to see the different things I rather it all be listed right here on the today screen without having to actually do anything on the device there's a task manager built into this phone and you can access it by pressing and holding the home button and here it is it shows you the programs that are currently open and the the amount of memory that's being taken up and from there you can stop all of them you can stop just one of them or two of them so that's a good addition let's go to the Start menu this is all you get not much we can go over to entertainment and here we have the standard bubble breaker solitaire camera application the camera is pretty good on this it's a 1600 x 1200 that's 2 megapixels going to click back my files is just a file explorer internet services we have windows live messenger windows live and RSS reader and they actually give you a full version of opera which is good because usually opera costs about twenty-five dollars opera is an improvement over pocket internet explorer not a huge improvement but it's good that they included on this device so i'm going to go back to the start menu here and then we can go into applications and we have file manager standard things we can go into accessories there you'll find you know calculator internet sharing wizard standard things the task manager also shows up there we can go into document viewer this doesn't come with office mobile but it comes with clear view suite which will let you view powerpoint presentations Excel spreadsheets PDFs and word documents so you're covered there and then over at organizer we have voice notes alarms again standard stuff so there's not much software that comes on the I 620 as you would expect if you got it from a carrier when it comes with the basics the essentials and that's really all you need especially if you if you buy third-party software which hopefully you do it's a lot of good stuff out there so that's part 3 of the video review of the I 620
