Samsung SGH-P520 Armani

without comments

Samsung SGH-P520 ArmaniFinally, it’s released. Samsung SGH-P520 Armani. It’s Samsung’s answer to Apple iPhone and LG KG850 Prada. It just haven’t keyboard, just sensor display and two buttons - accept and decline call. Display made by technology of LG and Apple - it’s not sensor film, it’s a net of laser lines which detect placing of finger and its moving. That technology is much more safe, display of mobile phone is harder to damage. And, also, that makes the cell phone thicker. Its thickness is just 8.9 mm - it’s a very good for a mobile phone with sensor control.

Samsung SGH-P520 ArmaniOf course, like all Samsung cell phones P series, the Samsung SGH-P520 Armani have in box leather case for mobile phone. It protects the Armani from scratches or something on a case. The phone within this leather case looks like note-book or diary. Ok, now let’s look at features of this great thing:

Display - TFT, 2.6”, sensor, 262k colors, 240×320 resolution
Camera - 3.0 Mpx with 4x digital zoom
Memory card - microSD slot (up to 2Gb)
Additional functionality: MMS, GPRS, EDGE, Bluetooth with A2DP, Wi-Fi (802.11 b/g), TV-outlet, Java 2.0

After all this, I must say that Samsung SGH-P520 is loud answer to LG and Apple. Small device with only sensor control and great couple of things will be good competitor to all other same devices of other firms. Samsung has said its word. What after?..

Samsung SGH-F250

with 16 comments

Samsung SGH-F250Next mobile phone we look will be a new model of Samsung F serie - Samsung SGH-F250. It made in slider form-factor, with rounded forms and functional buttons. F series of Samsung cell phones, as we know, is a music-fashion models. So, first of all, Samsung SGH-F250 have music control buttons (which is combined with a navigation buttons). Also that mobile phone have shiny gloss cover, which covers face panel and a display, making them one. It’s a good decision for Samsung - that model have shiny, attractive design with many of functions and not so expensive - that model costs just about 250-300 dollars.

Samsung SGH-F250It’s usability is very high. Inner keyboard made by metal, pseudo-sensor keys pressing very easy. This cell phone perfectly lying in the hand, thanks to rounded shapes and it’s case. Slide is gentle, but not easy - in your bag phone won’t open. Because of it’s serie - music mobile phone - it’s sound is pretty loud. Earphones in the box sounds great, that cell phone is really can be used as a MP3-player. Ok, its design is good, it sounds good, what’s bad? Well, I think, it’s case. It made by plastic, it’s making phone so light and I feel it in my hand like a real toy. Keyboard saves all - when my fingers touches keyboard and I feel metal, I believe that it’s cell phone :)

Ok, now it’s time to us to look at functions.
Display - TFT, 2”, 262k colors, 128×160 resolution.
Camera - 1.3 Mpx, 4x digital zoom.
Memory card - microSD slot (up to 2Gb)
Additional features: MMS, GPRS, EDGE, Java 2.0, Bluetooth with A2DP.

Saying about Samsung SGH-F250 at all, I must say that it’s phone for young men and ladies, can’t living without music. Thanks to good battery, you can use it as player and stay on-line. This cell phone will be popular.

without comments

Samsung SGH-D880

Well, let’s see why Samsung SGH-D880 Duos names so. It really supports two SIM-cards, but what makes it different from other phones with more that one SIMs? It’s all because of two GSM-modules in this one cell phone. It means that two SIMs will work at same time, even if one is busy - second is free. It makes you don’t need in second phone, it’s great when two numbers can work at the same time in one mobile phone! That’s why this cell phone also have two IMEIs - international serial numbers. Let’s see, how call on any SIM displays on a phone.Samsung SGH-D880

First of all, you must choose main SIM. All your calls will be done from it. After that, when somebody calls you on no matter what SIM - you can see a picture, similary to the right one. You see the SIM for what making a phone call, you can see who calls (under the picture of the SIM), and you can accept or discharge a call. If you already speaks on that cell phone to somebody, and on another SIM arriving a call - you can make a wait for first talk, and accept second call. Also, with double-SIM functionality, this cell phone Samsung SGH-D880 Duos have a couple of good features:

Display - TFT, 2.3”, 262k colors, 240×320 resolution.
Camera - 3 Mpx CMOS with auto-focus
Memory card - microSD upto 2Gb
Additionally: media multi-format suuport (MP3, AAC+,WMA), stereo FM-radio, Bluetooth with A2DP (for wireless stereo headset), GPRS with EDGE, USB.

After all, I can say that Samsung SGH-D880 Duos is a best solution for business man, who have two or more mobile numbers and want to be on-line every minute of life without a couple of various cell phones.
