This is certainly more than just rumors; a Samsung official recently revealed that Samsung is working hard to make a smart phone based on a dual core processor which has a clock speed of two Ghz. That means each processor will be running at a speed of two GHz as opposed to two processors running at one GHz each as many might think. ARM is already having Cortex-A9 dual core design which can reach these heights and Samsung will most probably use this processor for their cell phone. It is also said that Samsung will be trying to sell these chips separately so you don’t have to stick with Samsung branded handset if you want the faster processor. It will be interesting to see what the fast processor can do. We think that with such speeds, this cell phone will be as fast as a desktop computer and you get this speed right in the palm of your hand. We will applaud the manufacturer if it manages to have the same battery life as other standard smart phones.  [...]

With the Galaxy, Samsung has finally joined the league of  Android phones. The Galaxy comes in with a brilliant feature set and is being offered by O2 in the U.K. Anyways lets go ahead with the review see if this could truly survive in the android game. This one truly fits into the sleek phone category at a thickness of  11.9mm thick and it is quite light at 116g and easily fits in the pocket. The screen of this one is around 3.2-inch and it supports the OLED technology. Thanks to the OLED technology the display of this looks absolutely stupendous with bright and vibrant images. This one could definitely remind a few of the Samsung Jet with its kind of similar layout on the back.  Below the screen we have the search button and the home key which is conveniently placed between the terminate and the back buttons. However most of the space below the screen is eaten up by the OK button, which in all honesty doesn’t require that much of footage plus the home button could have surely  [...]

This one has a 1000 entry phonebook which can store around five numbers and an email address per entry. Apart from the basic features like the vibrate mode, calculator, alarm clock, calendar and a tip calculator, this one has Bluetooth with file transfer protocol, voice dialing, USB support and a variety of other applications. This one comes with an iinternal memory of 40 MB, but can be spruced up with an external memory card. It comes loaded with a 2- megapixel camera which can be used to take pictures in almost five resolutions. The quality of the photos was pretty much impressive for a 2 megapixel camera. It didn’t display much noise and the photos were pretty much clear and vibrant. The multimedia videos removed with the help of the camcorder are capped at 30 secs. The quality of the videos is pretty much mediocre though. It’s got the standard Samsung music player which is pretty much easy to use. The toggle can be used to scroll over  [...]

Like the other phones from Samsung even this one has a 1000 entry phonebook along with other features like the vibrate mode, alarm clock, calculator, timer, speakerphone, memo list, a unit and currency converter. Keeping the basic features aside this one also offers support for Bluetooth, GPS and PC syncing. This one also includes the POP3 email support. This one also comes loaded with a 2 megapixel camera and lets the user take pictures in four resolutions ranging from 1,600x1,200 to 320x240. It also offers a few editing options. The camcorder offers a decent 176x144 resolution. The photo quality is pretty much decent and exhibits hardly any noise. The photos are also bright and quite vibrant. Once the user is done taking the pictures, the pictures can easily be transferred using the Bluetooth support or can be stored on the phone itself which offers an inbuilt memory of 80MB. However the memory is expandable so I would recommend using a separate memory card for storage.

This one has a 1000 phonebook entry, world clock, calculator, stop watch, vibrate mode, sketchpad, timer, notepad, alarm clock and a calculator. This one could very aptly be called a messaging phone and it offers a nice variety of messaging features like e-mail options - mobile e-mail, corporate email, and mobile Web e-mail along with visual voice mail, mobile IM with AIM, Windows Live Messenger, and Yahoo messenger support. Also this one comes loaded with the EV-DO Rev. A it supports the V Cast broadband services, like V Cast Video, and the V Cast Audio. One can easily download songs and listen to them when on the move. I was pretty much impressed with music player with an easy to use interface and nice categorizations of the tracks according to the artists, albms, genres etc. However I would recommend using headphones than blasting the music on the speakers because the speakers are not that great. Downloading web pages using the EV-DO Rev was also an easy task and it hardly ttook me  [...]

Though Samsung has compromised on quite a few features with this one it has retained the TouchWiz UI like in the others from the Tocco family and the Jet. The interface can easily be managed by swiping the finger over the screen. This one being more of a resistive display, doesnot have the smart multi-touch feature. The 3 buttons on the standby screen are for stimulating the numberpad, the contact book and the main menu. The numbers on the numberpad have been comfortably placed to avoid any mispresses and it well quite succeeds in achieving this. The phonebook can be used to find a number in three ways. Either swiping down through the whole list or directly typing the name on the search bar. The other option that it offers is searching through sections letter by letter. It also has an option of photo contacts, using which all your recent contacts photos will pop up on the screen in a grid like fashion and all you have to do is click on the photo to make a call. Coming to messaging…  [...]

Comparing it with the T239 this one has a 1000 entry phonebook as opposed to the t239’s 300 entry phonebook. You could assign each contact with a picture and a ringtone. Apart from the normal features that a basic phone offers this one has Bluetooth added to it which provides support for wireless headsets, hands-free kits, serial port, object push, and phone book access. As I mentioned earlier this one isn’t for you if you’re looking out for web browsing, especially considering its low resolution screen. I tried connecting to the web browser using the WAP browser, but I really had to squint my eyes to make out what was actually displayed on the screen. So it’s like a really bad option if you want to use this one for web browsing. All I could have asked of this phone was a 1.3 megapixel camera but here again I hardly had any option with the drab VGA camera which was provided. The images were below my satisfactory levels plus there were hardly  [...]
