Samsung S9110 wristwatch phone unveiled, no video calling though
22/07/2009 15:44
Today Samsung announced the S9110 - the world's thinnest wristwatch mobile phone. Sporting a decent (for the class that is) feature set, the fully-touch operated Samsung S9110 is the next device that will try to make all you James Bond dreams come true.
Launched as a direct competitor to the LG GD910, the Samsung S9110 is almost 2mm slimmer, standing at the pretty acceptable 11.98mm. It also packs a larger 1.76" touchscreen and matches its Bluetooth connectivity and speech recognition features.
The Samsung S9110 also puts Outlook sync support to the table but unfortunately lacks the 3G support of the GD910. Well, we guess even with the advance of technology they still had to leave something out to make the S9110 so slim.
The lack of 3G not only means there's no high speed data on the thing, but more importantly - there will be no video calls support. Now that's a bummer, where's the fun in a wristwatch phone that doesn't allow video conferencing?
The Samsung S9110 should be able to offer a built-in speakerphone instead in case you really prefer talking to your wrist rather than using a Bluetooth headset. A scratch-resistant glass take cares of the protection of the little fella's pretty face.
The body of Samsung S9110 is crafted from stainless steel, while the strap is made from leather, giving it some pretty stylish looks.
The Samsung S9110 will hit the shelves in France this month for an estimated price of 450 euro

Gravity 2 for T-Mobile USA
22/07/2009 15:39
Here come some good news for texters on T-Mobile - there are two new QWERTY phones coming your way. The Samsung Gravity 2 and Samsung Comeback were spotted in the wild a while back, but only now do they make their official debut.
The Samsung Comeback sets up the ground for many properly named sequels, at the small price of not being an actual comeback. The funny name aside, Samsung Comeback takes the Communicator way, being a normal looking, but bulky phone on the outside and opening up to reveal a second, bigger screen and a four row QWERTY on the inside.
The Comeback is available today for 129.99 US dollars on a contract and the Gravity 2 will hit the shelves in August, its price still unknown. You can get the Comeback in either Pearl white plum or Frost silver cherry and the Gravity 2 in Berry mauve and Metallic pumpkin.

Comeback for T-Mobile USA
22/07/2009 15:38
Here come some good news for texters on T-Mobile - there are two new QWERTY phones coming your way. The Samsung Gravity 2 and Samsung Comeback were spotted in the wild a while back, but only now do they make their official debut.
The Samsung Comeback sets up the ground for many properly named sequels, at the small price of not being an actual comeback. The funny name aside, Samsung Comeback takes the Communicator way, being a normal looking, but bulky phone on the outside and opening up to reveal a second, bigger screen and a four row QWERTY on the inside.
The outside display of Samsung Comeback sports a resolution of 128 x 128 pixels, while the inner one comes with QVGA pixel count. Storage can be boosted up to 16GB thanks to the built-in microSD card slot and there's a 2 megapixel camera on board. The Comeback will also pack 3G connectivity, though there's no word on HSDPA support.
Samsung Gravity 2 takes up where the first one left off - classic side-slider with full QWERTY keyboard. Just like the Comeback, it supports up to 16GB microSDs and features a 2 megapixel camera. The most tangible upgrade over the old Gravity however is the 3G capabilities.

The T749 Highlight is a social creature with email and support for AIM, Windows Live Messenger, Yahoo! Messenger. In short - the on-screen full QWERTY keyboard won't catch a break.
On the local connectivity side the Samsung T749 Highlight offers USB and Bluetooth with A2DP, to be put to good use by the music player, which supports MP3, AAC and WMA. The camera is a 3 megapixel snapper with video recording, lacking any goodies like autofocus and the like.
