Design and Display
The Samsung A897 Mythic sports a compact but robust design with dimensions measuring 114 x 52 x 12.7 mm, making it easily portable and fitting comfortably in the hand, with a reassuring weight of 108 grams. The device's aesthetic appeal is complemented by a TFT resistive touchscreen that displays up to 256,000 colors, although the technology may feel dated by today’s standards. The 3.3-inch screen provides a resolution of 360 x 640 pixels, which was relatively sharp at the time of release, especially with a screen-to-body ratio of around 50.6%. Featuring the TouchWiz 2.0 UI, the device offered a unique interactive experience, though the responsiveness of the resistive touchscreen can seem less responsive compared to capacitive touchscreens found in modern smartphones.
