The Glyde U940 is Samsung’s first touchscreen phone for Verizon and is in direct competition with the LG Voyager that was released almost 6 month earlier. It is based on the GSM Samsung F700, with similarities in style and form, yet the feature-set has changed. The Glyde is targeted to consumers that are looking for a touchscreen device, with a smaller footprint than the Voyager, while maintaining a mechanical QWERTY keyboard.

The Sony Ericsson T303 is a sleek looking stylish slider with metallic and reflective finish. It features a built-in 1.3 megapixel digital with 4x digital zoom, allowing you to snap pictures on the go. The phone features a nice multimedia section with built-in digital music player and RDS FM radio.

On the other hand, the phone has some downfalls. First is its low-end LCD screen that only supports up to 128×160 pixels and second the phone has only 8MB of internal memory and no card slot. So don’t expect to take that many pictures with each picture using up 400-500KB.
