New Smartphone heralds Samsung market drive
Samsung has announced the launch of its SGH-i320 Slim QWERTY Smartphone – a launch which is said to signal the company's drive in the smartphone market.
The Samsung i320 is described as a super-slim bar type handset, measuring just 11.5mm in depth and 95g in weight with a QWERTY keyboard, enabling users to send emails and text messages far more conveniently, says Samsung.
The i320 runs on the Windows Mobile 5.0 Smartphone operating system to provide users with a familiar interface that is easy to navigate and use. It allows users to write and store texts, exchange emails in real-time, type memos, and so on.
Functions supported by the handset are especially useful for users who want to chat, read, and send emails from their mobiles. The i320 features an imbedded instant messaging program and 'mobile mail' functions to enable users to send and receive photos, music and a variety of multi-media messages.
The phone has a large 2.2 inches LCD screen with 1 .3 mega-pixel resolution camera, along with cool multi-media entertainment functions such as Bluetooth and high-quality dual speakers.
Kitae Lee, president of Samsung's Telecommunications Network Business, said, “The trend and popularity of slim phones will be carried over to the smartphone market.” He added, “ Samsung will lead the trend of smartphones by combining its cutting-edge technology and sleek ultra-slim designs. ”
The SGH-i320 will be launched in Europe this month.
