If you’ve always loved the Blackjack form factor but couldn’t stomach the poor battery life – this new Samung Epix is worth a look. Test Freaks have given the new smartphone a going over and pronounce it worthy. This Windows Mobile 6.1 phone sports a 320 x 320 screen and 2 megapixel camera (they have a few test shots to demo the camera). What’s noteworthy is the new optical mouse that responds to finger movements in much the way a touchpad would. Unfortunately there’s no built-in GPS and the screen has problems with washout in the sunlight. I asked the guys there how the battery life was and here’s what they say:

Seems fine to me, gets the rated times, I only charged it once in the week I was testing it, and I had bluetooth on most of the time and I played with wifi a bit as well.. I personally like it quite a bit
