Three new Samsung cell phones have arrived at T-Mobile all with an eye on messaging since they all sport slide-out QWERTY keyboards. They also all feature T-Mobile's Social Buzz for staying on top of social networks by integrating popular networking sites into a single application, which runs in the background and alerts you when a new update appears for any of the social networks you follow. Yet they all vary slightly when it comes to design.

The Samsung Gravity T has a touchscreen display with customizable home screens and task bar widgets. Additionally, you can check both web-based and exchange e-mail accounts on this cell phone. Other noteworthy specs include a 2-megapixel camera, music player, 3G connectivity, and the ability to take up to a 32GB microSD card for storing music and pictures. It can also be used in other countries around the world.

Next in the line-up is the Samsung Gravity 3. This messaging phone doesn't only sport a slide-out QWERTY keyboard, but it also has a numeric keypad as well so you can still create messages using T9 or the old triple tap method. The Gravity 3 sports similar features to that of the Gravity T and has the added bonus of some preloaded games such as Guitar Hero 5.

Finally, the Samsung :) - yes, that's a smiley face - has a slightly different form factor. Designed to fit in the palm of your hand, the main display of this Samsung messaging phone is a bit more square. While this cell phone can also be used in other countries, will support up to a 32GB microSD card, and has a music player, but the camera only has a 1.3-megapixel lens.

So which Samsung messaging phone fits your style?
