Seriously, folks, I never imagined I’d be surprised by a cell phone, like ever.  But here I am, quite astonished by what I have to talk about, today, the Samsung Caliber.

The Samsung Caliber is a candy bar style phone with conference call capability, voice recorder, caller ID, Bluetooth connectivity, a microSD card slot, USB slot, a phone book with capacity for a whopping two thousand names and numbers (something I’d never heard of before this one), an Internet browser, a three megapixel digital camera, alarm clock, calendar, calculator, and a battery with a maximum talk time of five full hours.

Catch those specs?  Five hour talk time.  Two thousand records. Three megapixel camera.  All sorts of stuff I don’t usually see put in the same place.  That’s like finding gold at the end of a rainbow that’s been hit by a meteor AND lightning.  But the key thing is here that this is a solid model, with a surprising set of options.  The Samsung Caliber may be a little low end, but it’s got plenty of surprises in store.

The Good

Long battery life

Huge phone book

Great camera

The Bad

Not many other options

Score 7/10
