Compact, sleek, and crammed with multimedia features, Samsung's MM-A920 may prove irresistible for music and video fanatics alike. Armed with Bluetooth and a 1.3-megapixel camera, as well as access to Sprint's high-speed 3G EV-DO network and the carrier's new but pricey Music Store, this small wonder makes for a tantalizing addition to Sprint's multimedia phone lineup. That said, we wish the phone's video and music players were better performers, and we were annoyed by the partially crippled Bluetooth connection.

The Samsung MM-A920 isn't that flashy as far as multimedia phones go; in fact, its all-black shell looks decidedly nondescript, and it's a far cry from Samsung's slim MM-A900. That said, the twin silver speakers that sit on either hinge of this flip phone will clue in onlookers to the MM-A920's music-mindedness, as might the player buttons that lie beneath the external screen. The handset itself is about the same size and weight as other flip-model 3G phones we've tested (measuring 3.6 by 1.9 by 1 inches and weighing in at 3.8 ounces), although the welcome lack of an antenna makes the MM-A920 more pocket friendly.
