TheSamsung SGH-i607, marketed asBlackJack, is asmartphone with aQWERTY keyboard released in 2006, that was available throughAT&T in theUnited States andTelstra in Australia. On the other hand, theSamsung i600 was the model offered in Europe using different 3G frequencies.[1]
In January 2007Research In Motion, creators of theBlackBerry handhelds, filed suit inUnited States federal court claiming the BlackJacktrademark was too similar to the BlackBerry mark.[2] They alleged that Samsung had named their smartphone with a word beginning with "Black" just to mislead the customers that would come to the cellphone stores with the intention to purchase a BlackBerry. A month later the two parties settled out of court.[3] In January 2008, Rogers Wireless andFido Solutions released theBlackjack II in Canada under the nameJack.
For handsets manufactured between November 2006 and February 2007, there is a known defect in the antenna assembly, causing a large number of dropped calls.[4]
The successor to the BlackJack was the SamsungBlackJack II. It was available in the U.S. forAT&T and in Canada forRogers.[5]
