You might remember the BlackJack as the SGH-i600, top of Vincent's Christmas list for Santa back in early September; it looks like Samsung were listening even if the bearded-guy wasn't. Now updated with an exclusive unboxing video!

Still, there's only so much a paper spec-sheet will tell you before you have to turn the the device itself and get the real-world measure of it. So thank Lucille Ball that our guy with the reporting eye, Vincent Nguyen, has scored some exclusive hands-on time with the BlackJack itself. Keep reading SlashPhone to find out exactly what he thought!

So Vincent, what did you think?

"It's a beautiful smartphone, the keyboard is well laid out and all the keys and the 4-way Dpad are easily accessible.� I particularly like the jog dial and enter button running down the right hand side; much more useful than the volume touch-buttons on the T-Mobile Dash I'm currently using [Ed's note: you can see the Dash in our exclusive photos, to compare size with the BlackJack].� The screen is slightly smaller than that on the Dash - 2.3-inches versus 2.5-inches - and that makes it a lot crisper.� The system as a whole feels snappy, there's very little lag"

And can you tell us anything about what accessories Samsung will be providing?

"Well, they were generous enough too throw in an extra battery and a travel charger!"

I guess that means Christmas has come early for one happy cellphone geek! Now check out the SlashPhone exclusive unboxing video:

The BlackJack will be available in mid-November in the US, priced at $199.99 with a two-year contract including unlimited data.
