New Samsung smartphone is not just a pretty face

samsung smartphone

While many cell phones that are designed to be tiny computers on the go are generally bulky and unweildy due to their full QWERTY keyboards and all the junk inside to make them run, newer phones are trying to bring slick stylings to the shirt and tie set. Much like the new Blackberry Pearl, this Samsung SGH-i760 smartphone combines style with substance to create a pretty sweet new device. Loaded with Windows Media 5 to give all you business types the tools you need to keep earning the green, it features a slide-out QWERTY keyboard that's not so wide that you'll need a lame belt clip to carry it around with you. The touchscreen is a generous 2.8-inches, and you can connect to the world via WiFi or Bluetooth 2.0. If multimedia is your game it has both a forward-facing video camera and a 2-megapixel still camera on the back side. No word on pricing, release dates, or carriers, but it's safe to say that this thing should generate some buzz when it hits store shelves.
