Not saying that every mobile phone released has to bring something new to the table, but why is this article written as if it's big news? The only thing it has that most other phones don't have is the screen, which is hardly impressive.
Aaron @ Oct 20th 2008 9:30AM
Because non-Nokia S60 phones are pretty rare?
sr @ Oct 20th 2008 9:36AM
Typical ignorance about S60. Every S60 phone announcement is important.
Kris @ Oct 20th 2008 9:38AM
It's a pretty decent phone

"The only thing it has that most other phones don't have is the screen"
What about the 50mb of internal memory? Not many other phones have that.

1. Samsung has made several S60 phones before.
2. To say every S60 phone is important shows YOUR ignorance.
3. I didn't say it wasn't decent.
4. My Sony Ericsson C902 has 160MB. My 4 year old K700i with it's VGA camera has 40MB. 50MB is pretty crap.

SR was kidding about the S60 phone thing. It was funny.
Too bad this phone doesn't also pack a facetious button. That would surely tip the scales for you to need one in your pocket.
As for me, I think it's exciting to see a non-Nokia S60. Their designs are getting plain & if S60 + good camera's out in a candybar I'll definately short list it.

Oooh , so it has a 2.6-inch AMOLED screen, perhaps nexty time they should make it bigger, lets say 3.5"...
and make it touch... keypads are sooo 1990's
Who wants to watch anything on a 2.6"?
Bob @ Oct 20th 2008 9:47AM
Keypads are so 1990's? It's 2008 and a majority of phones still have keypads dude.

Samsung has already marketed a touch screen phone with a 3" screen, it's called Omnia (i900) and It's got MMS capability a real (5mpx) camera/videocam, a replaceable battery, a good GPS, copy&paste, and all other important things that Apple was unable to produce.
It will come to my frigid country within 3 weeks and it will be into my pocket few minutes later.
cj @ Oct 20th 2008 1:35PM
iEye, I think it's Apple who should have maybe broader product lineup that you can actually CHOOSE from.
It's not like Samsung only has this phone and telling the customers it's the only choice.
And what's wrong with buttons? I've used touch phones and buttons ftw.

*sigh*

I for, one, dislike full touch screen anything. If the screen breaks on a non-touch screen device, it's still somewhat usable.
Jack @ Oct 20th 2008 9:50AM
This phone's shape and form makes it look like Sony Ericsson and love child.
Kris @ Oct 20th 2008 10:10AM
SE and what?
Fernando @ Oct 20th 2008 2:07PM
Sony AND Ericsson.
Imagine if sony made a phone together with ericsson, that'd be hot... oh wait
Jack @ Oct 20th 2008 3:19PM
Sony Ericsson's Love child, notice the typo?
asg84 @ Oct 20th 2008 9:53AM
does anyone knows the life time of a AMOLED screen? as far as i know its below 1000 hours ,
that means phone will be out of use in a year if display was on for 3 hours a day (highly unlikely thou)

"TMDisplay developed a 2.2-inch OLED panel QVGA (240×320) with a lifetime of 60,000 hours and power consumption of 100 mW."

I guess lifetime is not an issue any more.

With FM radio transmitter/receiver I could stream an MP3 from one i770c to another i770 over FM waves :)
KilgoreTrout @ Oct 20th 2008 10:12AM
An S60 candybar uh?
Get lost!
Yem @ Oct 20th 2008 10:37AM
Exactly what I'm looking for. Funny buttons though.
EricR @ Oct 20th 2008 11:54AM
in Mother Russia love child has you
ran @ Oct 20th 2008 11:54AM
Looks nice, but it would better with an edit button and home key; I guess I'm just used to Nokia S60 devices.
andy @ Oct 20th 2008 2:33PM
give us physical buttons instead of those terrible strip plastic keys, and you might have a winner.
