Samsung Illusion

Samsung makes some top-quality smartphones, but doesn't bestow them upon Verizon Wireless often. Sure, there's the new Galaxy Nexus ($299.99, 4 stars), but Android 4.0 aside, it lags behind Motorola's latest offering, the Droid RAZR ($299.99, 4.5 stars). The Samsung Illusion ($79.99 with a two-year contract) doesn't stand a chance against either of those two devices, but then again, it isn't trying to. Like many other Samsung phones for Verizon, the Illusion is a decent, midrange option, although it feels like it should be free with contract. It lacks 4G, and you don't have to look hard or spend more than $100 with contract to find something better. Design and Call Quality The Samsung Illusion measures 4.5 by 2.4 by 0.5 inches (HWD) and weighs 4.2 ounces. It's made entirely of plastic, with a textured back panel. Unlike the gigantic Galaxy Nexus, the Illusion is a comfortable size to hold for any hand. The 3.5-inch, 320-by-480-pixel capacitive touch screen is bright and vibrant, though that resolution is disappointingly low. I would have much preferred to see the 800-by-480 screens that are now becoming standard. I had no problem typing on the onscreen QWERTY keyboard with accuracy.

Samsung Illusion Review

Even though it has been several months since Verizon introduced its first 4G LTE smartphone, the HTC ThunderBolt, not everyone lives in a 4G area or wants to drop a few hundred on a new smartphone. Enter the Samsung Illusion, as it is under $80 with contract, yet has a modest set of features for the budget conscious consumer.The Samsung Illusion is compact and fits comfortably in the hand, thanks to it only being 0.47” thick and weighing 4.02 oz. It has a minimalistic appearance with black plastic used throughout and a nice grip texture on the back, and also feels well-made and should withstand day-to-day use.Size Visualization ToolOn the front of the Illusion is a that has an HVGA resolution (320x480 pixels). Even though we usually prefer a larger display, the one on the Illusion allows the phone to be more compact, yet the screen still produces nice looking images and sharp text. The only caveat being it is difficult to view in bright sun light.Below the display are the four capacitive buttons for accessing the menus, home, back, and search. We find it interesting that the backlight on these can be set for 1.5 seconds, 6 seconds, always on or off – instead of being synced to the display’s backlight timer.
