Samsung S3500
Samsung has announced that they would release a new phone, the S3500, which is a new slider which has a stainless steel phone which gives the phone a lot of durability, style and resistance to scratches.
There is also clearly a connection with the Soul series because of the fact that it is trying to make itself presentable even though it is somewhat at the bottom of the ladder. The metallic look and pretty much the same screen which was found in the U900 Soul obviously makes it something which turns heads around. However, a touch pad would have been utterly useless and quite a nuisance considering the price range and target of the phone.
At a mere 13.9 mm of thickness, the Samsung S3500 slides out to show a normal alphanumeric keypad. The user will be able to choose between the 3 themes that are already present on the phone or go for the large variety of themes that are available on the internet. The Samsung S3500 has a 2.2” 262k color screen. Other features of the phone include a FM radio with RDS and a media player, in addition to Stereo Bluetooth so that you can use bluetooth headsets with the phone. The Samsung S3500 has a 2 MPIX snapper which can also shoot videos.
A feature called the ‘Mobile Tracker’ comes on board, whereby the user can find out the location of the lost or stolen phone as soon as a new SIM is inserted. The phone also has a feature whereby the user can send pre-defined SOS messages to particular numbers and stimulate some incoming calls so that any unpleasant situations or conversations can be avoided. The phone will start retailing at about $207, but the period of release has not been confirmed yet.
