Familiar look and feel

The Samsung Factor for Boost Mobile is a straightforward flip phone with a VGA camera on its face.

Slip 'n' slide

It's got a smooth body that feels good in the hand, but tends toward the slippery side.

Weak resolution

We're disappointed with the QQVGA display, which shows a grainier, fuzzier resolution than we'd like.

Dialpad and navigation

On the other hand, the dial pad is comfortable, with responsive keys and navigation. There's a helpful shortcut button to get to the camera.

Profile

The spines collectively house a volume rocker, Micro-USB/headset port, and a camera button.
