  • Plastic-looking silver edges, No support for multi-touch, Lacks full onscreen QWERTY keyboard
  • The Monte's range of connectivity options is rather good by mid-range phone standards as it supports HSDPA at speeds of up to 3.6Mbit/s as well as Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 2.1. The 3G and Wi-Fi support really help the Dolfin V1.5 browser. It's pretty quick to...

  • Keeping in mind the Samsung Monte's connectivity features, one point of view would term it as an excellent product that has the right amounts of performance, features, looks and price in the perfect ratio. If you are looking for a full-featured phone ...

  • Here we arrive at the end of my review of the S5620 Monte, and although it has some bad points it has made quite an impression on me, so much so that I saw myself using it to text instead of my own phone. My overall opinion of the handset is mixed beca...

  • So, a vast collection of applications, the majority of which centred around social networking, the Samsung Monte (S5620) is very much a contender in the mobile phone market. You can buy the phone (sim-free) for under £150 from Amazon, a bargain when yo...

  • Not everyone wants, or can afford, a high-end touchscreen phone, so we can appreciate what Samsung was trying to do with the Monte. The Monte isn't terrible it just isn't fantastic either and we guess that's the point. If you want a fantastic phone the...
