Samsung Dart T499 Android phone review – Features, price and specs

Gadget Herald: Samsung Dart T499 is the latest Android 2.2 handset to make it’s way into the market. The small and compact phone is an entry level Android device which comes with a simple design and some pretty good features.

The Dart comes with a 3.14-inch display, and an extremely tiny virtual keyboard. The downside of the display? The screen is made of plastic – which makes navigation a pain – and the keyboard requires a lot of effort to master it.

The other features of the Samsung Dart T499:
Samsung’s TouchWiz UI
Integration with Google apps, as well as Gmail, Google Talk, Latitude, Maps, Places, Google voice search, YouTube.
Access to Google Music
Speakerphone
Thinkfree Office
Text and multimedia messaging
Bluetooth, GPS, and Wi-Fi
3 mega pixel camera
Wi-Fi calling
microSD slot
Youtube Player

At a starting price of $139.53, and some great features, the Samsung Dart T499 makes it an ideal phone for those of you who want to get hooked on to Android, and are looking for an inexpensive phone. It is the latest addition to the T-Mobile family and comes with some interesting budget plans.
