The Samsung Captivate Glide is a Galaxy S device on AT&T network that sports, yes wait for it... a full slide out QWERTY keyboard. I was beginning to think manufacturers didn't want to make devices with keyboard. The Captivate Glide has a 1GB of RAM, a 1GHz Dual-core Tegra 2 processor, 8GB of internal storage, an 8 megapixel camera(records at 720P) a a 1.3 megapixel front-facing cam, Gingerbread Android 2.3.5 with TouchWiz 4.0 all under a 4-inch Super AMOLED display with 800 x 400 resolution. and a 4-inch Super AMOLED display. The 800 x 480

. The keyboard has 4 rows with Android keys on either side of the keyboard. it feels comfortable and easy to use, very flushed, with two distinct bumps on the keyboard. it does take some getting used to but in the end works extremely well.The back of the device has textured battery plate to give you a better gripe of the device.


Conclusion

The Captivate Glide from Samsung is a solid piece of hardware, like its Galaxy S2 counterparts. It does everything well. The keyboard is fantastic and easy to use, though flush you get good key separation, plus it doesn't add much to the weight of the device. Samsung Galaxy S2 user longing for a keyboard will be very pleased with the captive Glide. My only downside here is the lower screen resolution at 800x480, which gives it a more washed out look. other than that it is a very solid device and a very good keyboard with it for the Samsung Captive Glide
