When the
Samsung Flight 2 soared into AT&T's lineup last fall, it was apparent as your archetypal account QWERTY slider that didn't adjure too abounding glances with its accustomed and characterless experience. Most recently, we saw the Samsung Strive access out of the arena aback in the bounce to bound capitalize on some of the few shortcomings begin on the Flight with its bigger appearance. However, it looks like that Samsung is going into round two and giving the
Samsung Flight 2 SGH-A927 addition quick opportunity, but let's hope that it packs added force abaft its bite this time about though.

QWERTY Samsung Flight 2 |
First of all, gone is the portrait QWERTY style found with the original Samsung Flight, and instead, we're presented with a QWERTY landscape sliding one that doesn't deviate much to the chagrin of its predecessor's appearance. Sizing up almost exactly as before, we're once again not thrilled with the plastic nature of the handset – it just doesn't feel that durable. Granted though, it makes the handset extremely lightweight (3.5 oz) and almost unnoticeable in the pockets. With the rear cover, there is a chain link pattern on it to give it some appeal, but doesn't really invoke anything to sway its cheap construction. Overall, its design fails to make any lasting impressions, but then again, it should be more than acceptable for the younger crowd it's targeted for.
The Samsung Flight 2 with its more than adequate 3” QVGA (240 x 320) display with support for 262k colors, we were very surprised to find that Samsung has decided to employ capacitive technology with this one, making the user experience way better than with a resistive screen. Still, it displays washed out looking colors suffers from some viewing angle issues – making it rather difficult to see in direct sunlight. Finally, text isn't the sharpest out there, but it's still recognizable from a close distance.

The Samsung Flight 2 dedicated buttons below the touchscreen are flush to the surface, but still provide for some very good feedback – these are the send, back/clear, and end buttons. Both the volume rocker and quick menu key are located on the left edge, while the microUSB port, lock/unlock button, and shutter key are found on the right side – with all of them being perfect in size and responsiveness. Considered a luxury for this handset's category, you'll find a 3.5mm headset jack solely on the top side. There are three notches on the rear cover for the speakerphone, while the 2-megapixel camera can be found next to it. As usual, yanking off the back cover will present you access to the SIM card slot, battery, and microSD card slot.
As we said,
the Samsung Flight 2 decides to go with a mural sliding keyboard that has a adaptable opening/closing mechanism. For AT&T customers, they'll apparently be accustomed with its appearance and attending because it carefully resembles the one on the Samsung Impression. It employs a 4-row blueprint that accouterments ellipsoidal sized buttons which are faintly aloft from the surrounding apparent with constant agreement in amid them. Even admitting they accept that adamantine artificial feel to them, they absolutely accept a solid concrete feel back pressed. Finally, the alone affair we accept is the ambagious attending of the numbers on the QWERTY – especially when they're sized equally with the letters they're sharing the button with.
