The 2 feels much nicer and sleeker in the hand than the 1, at least to me. It's really not all that thick, and as has been said, you won't need to bulk it up wit h the extended life battery cover that folks use with the 1. FWIW, I think Samsung did a nice job on the redesign. Keyboard's better, too. I’m the guy who made the video … The 2 feels much nicer and sleeker in the hand than the 1, at least to me.

It is a smidgen wider (think millimeters), and the same thickness (while now including the extended battery by default, as mentioned previously).

It is a swivel direction pad. You can tap the direction like a button and like the first Blackjack, but the wheel can also spin. Re: thickness -- You can only go so thin. One of the big improvements with the BJ2 is the included extended battery without sacrificing any size. With the BJ1 the extended battery bulked it up quite a bit, but Samsung was able to cram that battery into this cellphone and still maintaining the thin size. -- Travis Hudson, MWW Group on behalf of Samsung Yeah, JJDon.

I'm not liking the thickness (hopfully they'll slim it down a bit), but I'm liking the wine red and the extended battery. The keypad looks improved, but I'd have to try it to honestly see if I like it. I never did like the BlackJack keyboard. I guess I'll have to decide...BlackJack 2 or Moto Q9. Right now, I still want my Moto, but that could change. Is that a swivle directional pad?

Maybe I'll get one of those also and be able to sport to brand new phones and then my Tilt won't have to do all the work. After watching the video, that thing looks so much nicer than my BJ1.

They placed the numbers closer as they should have done in the previous model. While the keyboard is the same the number pad is actually better.
