This pocketable phone is a little bit more interesting than you would think at first glance.
I'm Jessica Dolcourt from CNET.
This is the Samsung Galaxy Rush for Boost Mobile.
It means that it is a new contract phone.
One of the interesting things about it is that it's small.
As you can see, it's got a 3.5-inch display.
It does look really nice.
I do like the dedicated camera button on the side.
Everything else about this phone is attractive.
The design looks nice
and it's got kind of a nice bubbly look and fee to it.
So, I approved of the design.
What I also approved of is Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich as the operating system.
It's a very cool on this phone.
It's got all the whistles and bells here with Samsung's TouchWiz interface so there's a lot that you can do in a relatively small pocket.
It's nice.
Another thing that's on here is Boost ID, which originally started as Sprint ID and basically that means that you can switch from
1 profile to another profile because as many times as you want, you know, will load background wallpaper maybe some apps and other shortcuts and they're plenty of them pre-package here.
If you don't wanna use them, it's definitely not gonna get in the way.
If you do wanna use them, that's available for you.
There is a 3.2 megapixel camera with flash on the back.
I was not impressed with photo quality at all.
1.3 megapixel camera on the front for video chats and other things like that.
The 1 gigahertz processor on this phone is surprisingly good.
Most phones with Android 4.0 have at least 2 core processors.
I know there's a little bit of lag.
I think it does pretty well.
A 4 gigabytes of internal storage and a microSD card slot that takes up to 32 gigabytes and all.
The price is one of my favorite part.
It's $149.99 without a contract.
That is very decent upfront for Ice Cream Sandwich I think.
It does have 3G, not 4G, but the phone costs less than half the price of Boost Mobiles 4G Ice Cream Sandwich.
So, if you are looking for a bargain, you don't mind its lowest speeds and you don't mind something petite than I would definitely keep this in the running.
