... between homework assignments.

I walked over to the AT&T store today because I'd been itching to mess around with the Samsung Impression. It's one of Samsung's new OLED display touchscreen devices. It's on the lower end compared to others like the Omnia HD, but I digress.

The display is GORGEOUS. Colors really pop out at you. The contrast ratio must have been like 50000:1. It's relatively smooth to use too. Me being silly, I couldn't figure out whether it was capacitive or resistive, but they definitely attempted to incorporate some level of haptic feedback (the screen vibrates when you touch it). The interface was a typical Samsung OS (not S60, WinMo, or Android), and it seemed useful enough.

Unfortunately, after about 3 minutes of playing, it got switched off, and then needed a pin code to unlock after turning on again. Ah well, I enjoyed my 3 minutes. This phone is definitely on my list of phones now, and I must say that I really don't want to settle for LCDs anymore.
