At the curve of the moment; Samsung Moment vs. The Blackberry Curve 8350i

Android smartphones have been a hit for consumers lately that Samsung launched one of their own, the Samsung Moment. Suffice to say Samsung Moment gives the Samsung family and its consumers a closer look in the future of Samsung’s handheld units. But with other cellphones in the market like Blackberry Motorola and Sony Ericsson, Samsung will have to work double time in order to have a larger piece of the consumer pie. Now let’s take a look at two opposing manufacturers and their products, the Blackberry Curve 8350i vs. the Samsung Moment.
For Samsung Moment the clincher would be its touch screen technology, weighing 5.67 ounces the Samsung Moment carries a little bulk but can still be held firmly because of its sleek design.
