The Samsung Rant from Sprint is a slider cell phone which you can get for $49.99 including a two-year contract and a mail-in rebate.
The Samsung Rant looks like the LG Rumor with some slight differences: the shape of the navigation toggle and keypad buttons. The Rant has the size of 4.5 inches long by 2.1 inches wide by 0.7 inch thick. Its 2.1-inch display supports 262,000 hues and has the resolution of 176×220 pixels. It results in a vivid screen with sharp graphics.
Below the display you will find a navigation array with a bit raised keys: menu/OK, Back, and Speakerphone buttons. The Send and the End/Power buttons are flat and slippery.
In order to get a full QWERTY keyboard, you need to slide the phone to the right. Its rubberized keys are responsive and there is enough space between them. It is a pleasure to text using the Rant’s QWERTY keyboard.
The essentials of the Rant are a phone book for 600 entries, text and multimedia messaging, calculator, alarm, memo pad, world clock, calendar, calculator, and voice-memo recorder. The higher-end features include: instant messaging, the PC syncing, e-mail, voice dialing, Bluetooth, EV-DO support with access to Sprint Movies, Sprint’s Power Vision, Sprint Music Store.
The Samsung Rant has a 2.0-megapixel camera that shoots in 4 resolutions and 3 quality settings. We liked the photo quality. The camcorder comes with editing functions that resemble the camera’s ones.
Among the pluses of the Samsung Rant, there is a full QWERTY keyboard, stereo Bluetooth, EV-DO, GPS, and Sprint’s 3G services access.
The navigation keys of the Samsung Rant are not convenient. We did not like the dedicated music-player controls.
The Samsung Rant is considered to be a good messaging phone from Sprint.
