The Samsung F700 is the latest touchscreen phone that’s supposed to complete with the iPhone. Gizmodo compares the new Samsung F700 to the iPhone, and declares iPhone the winner.

I’ve played with the iPhone, and must admit that it’s the best possible iPhone variant I’ve seen. If not for the Cingular limitation I’d buy it in a second – Verizon has WAY better reception in my neck of the woods.

I’m beginning to see that I need a device that’s a PDA first and a phone second. I like the clamshell feel of my beat-up phone; really the only other thing I need is a device that displays an electronic calendar so I can see upcoming events on the go. I just threw away an unused paper calendar that took up too much pocket room, so electronic is the way to go.
