Summary
We´ll go on to how good this phone looks from the outside next, but what´s inside is almost as impressive here. With the 800mhz processor, the fantastic and newly updated TouchWiz User Interface at its centre, this is a phone that handles all you ask of it with ease. Whether that´s recording video at 30fps, shooting and uploading pictures onto social networking sites with the 5MP camera, using the music player, browsing up to five tabs at once or finding your way with the A-GPS and free Google Maps software, the Jet S8000 will do it all without breaking a sweat.
The 3D-cube-based TouchWiz – the newest version of Samsung´s lauded interface – is not only intuitive but also downright fun. Each of the six faces of the cube allows instant access to all the entertainment and communication functions on the phone. And not only this, but you can customise how the system is set-up, change what your multiple homescreens display, and drag numerous widgets to exactly where you want them. This is a phone that lets you stamp your own personality on it in no time at all
Look and design
Not too flimsy, and not too clunky, the Jet S8000 is one of those rare phones that feels fits perfectly and comfortable from the very first moment you use it. But that´s not the half of it. With the slick black surface on the front and sides, and the beautifully patterned reverse, this is also a phone that says quality even just to look at.
Overall
The Jet S8000 is one of the best mid-range phones you can get your hands on. With the 800mhz at its heart, the phone´s intuitive TouchWiz interface with its 3D-cube navigation system is an absolute breeze to use. Not only that, but the handset is designed to the highest degree. With some of the best materials used and finishing touches that show real care in construction and design, you´ll be more than impressed. Add to that more features, applications and verging-on-high-end specs, and you´ll find there´s little out there that has this beat.
