Samsung SCH-A950

Spin the scroll wheel of fortune on Verizon's latest music phone.

Downloadable music. Sharp photos.

Can't use phone as PC modem. Sluggish music interface.

Review: Samsung SCH-a950 V Cast Phone

This phone has few features and many services: services that you can buy or rent monthly. V Cast is fun and offers some entertaining content, so if you don't mind the monthly bill this could be the phone for you

Samsung SCH-A950

The Samsung SCH-A950 is a phone that could be considered a slight upgrade from the A930 class of hardware. While it comes with nearly all the same functions, the color and style of the phone seems to make it classier, where the 930 was more rebellious....

The SCH-A950 weighs in at nice and light 129 grams, which is enough to let you know your phone is there, but is still impressive, with a camera and other high-tech capabilities, such as Blue Tooth, external speakers, and the ability to stream video....
