Product Description
Samsung Reclaim M560 Design
The Samsung Reclaim M560 is worth the dough it costs you. Its user-friendly features can take you places. A slide-out, full-QWERTY keyboard magically speeds up your typing and hikes your accuracy quotient, while an alterable screen allows one-touch access to all your fave apps. A swift A-GPS navigation interface simplifies steering by providing turn-by-turn directions. You can tweak the smart functions like multimedia, camera, Bluetooth connectivity, 3G data services, music and more to your advantage. Numerous Sprint plans and options are laid out on a platter for you to choose from.
The Exterior
The Reclaim is a boxy number with curved edges. Sophistication with ergonomics rules its design sensibility. It measures 3.9 x 2.3 x 0.6 inches and weighs 3.5 ounces making it sturdy yet portable. The slider shape enhances the strength as it reveals the full QWERTY keyboard. Its brilliant ocean blue recycled shell, with headset jack, volume rocker, charger port and microSD slot on the spine, is a treat to the eyes. The camera and speaker snuggle up at the back that has an interesting design.
Eco-friendly-ness
The Reclaim’s claim to fame is its ecological touch. Its luminous blue plastic shell is carved out of recyclable bio-plastic derived from plants. The phone packaging is from recyclable paper, while printing ink on guide booklets is soy-based. The charger too is a power-saving contraption. Little wonder then that Greenpeace has given a go-ahead to this thought line. Sprint donates $2 to the Nature Conservancy's ‘Adopt an Acre Program’ out of each phone’s sale proceeds (a massive support to global conservation). And it has incorporated something called a One Click Green Tile that offers green tips, a green glossary, ideas and more. Talk about sustainable development and Sprint certainly shows a way. How cool is that!
User Interface
A 2.6-inch, LCD-TFT color main display adds a spark to the Reclaim. The screen supports over 262,000 colors in 320 x 240-pixel resolution, which means all your graphics and photographs gain a new and vibrant zest. You can also play a dynamic game with its brightness and backlighting timing settings. Other feature is its one-touch menu that houses attention-grabbing icons for your convenience. A roomy toggle key, other function keys and dedicated keys are meticulously arranged. Once you slide the phone out, an alphabetic keyboard with shortcuts reveals itself. It is color-coded for accurate and super-fast typing.
Bluetooth & GPS
The Reclaim can wirelessly stream music to stereo Bluetooth-enabled headsets (invest in a good one to rock on). It can also connect to other Bluetooth devices like car kits, computers and more. The phone’s integrated GPS services support is a cut above the rest. It supports Sprint Navigation for audible turn-by-turn directions when you drive or move in a new locality, E911 and other emergency location-based services. Find hotels, shops, banks, ATMs, cafes and more in a jiffy. Furthermore, quick traffic alerts from Sprint make your life butter-smooth.
Services
Surf the Web at lightening speeds with Reclaim’s mobile Web browsing (Access NetFront 3.5.1 browser). With this feature POP3 e-mail syncing (Yahoo!, Hotmail, and Gmail) and IMPAP4 e-mail access is a breeze. What’s more, you can sync Outlook contacts and calendar to your PC (over-the-air or with the USB charger) on a single click! Additionally, you can use an add-on line plan and make Reclaim multi-task as a modem (connect anywhere, anytime). Sprint’s Web and other plan options make sure you curb your usage costs. The phone’s tools like 600-contact phonebook with multiple-entry option, vibrate mode, calculator, calendar, alarm clock, world clock, memo pad, speakerphone, and stopwatch iron out your troubles.
Shutterbug
A built-in digital camera makes any cellular phone multi-functional. The Reclaim’s 2.0-megapixel wonder works up magic. Use it to enhance messaging, social networking, call settings and more. Besides clicking still images, the camera captures video clips. A dedicated camera key hastens the process. You can share the images; upload them on social Websites like MySpace, Photobucket, YouTube, FaceBook or Flickr, and have a blast. Alter the digital zoom; capture modes, self-timer settings, color tones, white balance, brightness and what have you to grab an unparalleled visual experience.
