Samsung SCH-B630

The DMB-enabled SCH-B630 has arrived as another evidence of how imaginative the guys that work in their development department are and also to prove us all wrong. Again. What is so special about this new release? Well, not very much, only that it has a whole lot of technology crammed in a body with a thickness of only 12.9 mm.

First of all, the SCH-B630 will offer its users a 3 megapixel camera with auto-focus that delivers enough quality so even the most pickiest of the Samsung customers will be satisfied. Next comes the S-DMB digital TV technology that will give the user access to mobile TV, a 2.12 inch 240×320 resolution TFT display, a multimedia player with support for MP3s and VOD files, wireless Bluetooth connectivity, an external memory extension card slot and an integrated TV-OUT port so you can be able to watch the DMB broadcasts of your choice from the comfort of your own home, on the huge screen of the TV set.

Have you ever thought that this kind of slim phones packed with mind-blowing features are nearly impossible to make? So did I, but it seems there are things that some of us, those ‘some of us’ being the guys from Samsung, don’t consider to be impossible but as another opportunity to prove to everyone else that if one gives it a try, in the end will surely reach a result, be it a success or a failure.
Unfortunately, we shouldn’t get all excited about this because all this mumbo-jumbo that not many of us understand is a sure sign the SCH-B630 will hit the Asian markets and until we, the people from other parts of the world, are going to get our hands on it, a lot of time will fly by.

Samsung SCH-B550

Samsung has unveiled yet another super-dooper, spectacular, stunning, breathtaking (and so on because I could do
this for the next 2 or 3 pages) mobile phone, namely SCH-B550, designed as a mobile gaming handheld console, a phone that will surely make all video games addicted individuals out there reach the next step of their evolution: gaming Nirvana.

The B550 will offer every game fanatic the possibility to play video games with the help of the built-in 3D graphics chipset, a 2.5 inch folding LCD display that will give everyone another view of what mobile gaming really means, a D-Pad and a Joypad so one will be able to have complete control over its in-game actions and last, but not least, the GXG support available only in Korea.
You won’t get bored even if you’re not quite fond of gaming, because this handset has been developed to offer complete mobile satisfaction even to the pickiest user that will get his hands on this mean gaming mobile machine. Thus you will have at your disposal a 2 megapixel digital camera, mobile DMB TV with TV-OUT support, an MP3 player to listen to all your favorite tunes and the omnipresent wireless Bluetooth connectivity.

Features:
Camera and camcorder
Music player
Bluetooth
Image editor
Phone to TV
Digital data printing
Multimedia Message Service (MMS)

Don’t get too excited though, because the SCH-B550 isn’t going to be shipped to the mobile store near you. If you want to have a chance to get a closer look over it, you will have to take a trip to Korea because there is the place where it will be launched. This way the Korean people have another reason to be happy; the end of the year is coming and we have yet another reason to envy them. Again!
