Samsung Alias 2 SCH-U750 (Verizon Wireless)
The Samsung Alias 2 has an innovative keypad that takes different forms depending on how you're using the phone. Its feature set is well-stocked and its overall performance for calls, video, and music is satisfying
The Samsung Alias 2's navigation controls take acclimation. The phone lacks Wi-Fi and POP3 e-mail access is limited to a Web-based interface. Also, adding up the various data features is expensive
The Samsung Alias 2 is an inventive update to Samsung's previous messaging phone. Provided you can afford it, and learn how to use it, it's a powerful messaging device with reliable performance.

Samsung Alias 2
The Samsung Alias 2 ($150 from Verizon, as of 6/25/09) is dual-hinged like its predecessor, the Alias, and it boasts a neat E Ink morphing keyboard that changes according to the phone orientation and menu. Though it isn't a smartphone, it supports ...
E-ink keyboard is uniquel ; Great call quality
All extra features cost more ; Large compared to other phones
Overall, I found the Samsung Alias 2 great for calls--and that's what phones are for, right? But aside from the appealing keyboard (which, I admit, will probably never get old), the phone lacks the extras that might capture a buyer's heart. It comes ...
The inside screen is a nice, big 2.6 inches and 320 by 240 pixels. Though...

Samsung Alias 2
Samsung's Alias 2 is aptly named; it leads a double life. On one hand, it's slick and cool, with a vibrant swivel screen and an E Ink keyboard that would make even a Kindle user slightly jealous.
E Ink keyboard morphs button layouts when switching from phone to messaging device. Voice quality is high. Battery life is nearly six hours. Reasonably priced
The Dear Diary feel of the interface is at odds with anyone over 13. My Room Menu theme is embarrassing. Lack of dedicated buttons leave you hunting and pecking for even the most common tasks

"Nice design for those who want flip/keyboard phone"
I get to keep all the features of my previous...
Stepped up from regular large flip phone to this so texting would be easier, I don't do allot so wanted to still have a flip phone, this phone does both very well. Allot to personalize, works with my bluetooth, so far so good
A little slippery - been dropped a few times. Didn't work well with my older Moto bluetooth but fine with Jaba one. I clip my phone to me and this phone has to be removed from it to answer calls - takes a little getting used to that
"Laggy. Sticky. Slow. Words that describe my displeasure"
This phone irritates me no death! When click ...
The two way flip is nice, and the interface is slick
The buttons have a delay to them, when I get to texting quickly it skips bunches of letter making my messages incoherent. Everytime you switch menus it loads for about 2 seconds, This is BEYOND frustrating
"If you text alot... Do not Buy."
This phone has great features. It's set up ve...

Manufacturer's Description
The Samsung Alias 2 gives you the convenience of a QWERTY keypad in a unique flip-style format. It has the same dual-hinge design that made the original Alias a hit, but Alias 2 adds a touch of magic - a Magic Key keypad using e-ink technology. In phone mode, it's a standard phone keypad. But in texting mode, the keys change into a full QWERTY keypad. But the magic doesn't stop there. The Alias 2 also has a large 2.6" QVGA display for crisper, clearer viewing, a 2.0-megapixel camera and...
