The SGH-S105 comes with an infrared port which is nice to send pictures and ring tones. However the lack of synchronization capabilities with Outlook or Lotus Notes severely limits its usefulness.

Animated backgrounds are available for you to customize when the phone is idle. In addition, 5 color schemes are available to choose from. Too bad you can't customize your own.

All pictures and animated backgrounds are 128 x 128 px format and can be jpg, gif, or bmp file formats.
