well-constructed design and a unique
intuitive navigation touchpad
new ways of thinking

strong background hiss from the amplifier when using it with
the rest of the buttons (the soft ones and the two receivers)
the frequent accidental pressing of icons when opening and closing
The Soul is not just a 3G device
static and rather lifeless buttons
like having to hold the phone in the open position to take shots
lacked voice dialing
Camera ergonomics were a mixed bag
lacks GPS and Wi-Fi
Samsung Soul lacks important features like voice dialing and GPS
Noticeable screen glare when outdoors
you cannot use the camera without sliding open the phone first
