Samsung SPH-m620

Front Closed

Deciding which side is the "front" with the Upstage is no easy task, for the purposes of this review we will refer to the side with the keypad as the front. On this side of the Upstage you will see the lens for the 1.3 megapixel camera at the top left, with the slot for the phone speaker next to it. Below the speaker is a small 1.3" 176 x 65 pixel display to navigate through the interface. Below the screen is a Sprint logo. All of these items take up the top fourth of the front. Below these items are the control keys and keypad. The control keys are dominated by a large squarish directional pad, with 2 soft keys, a dedicated camera key, back button and send/end keys surrounding it. The keypad is a standard 12 key arrangement. At the very bottom of the front you will see the pin hole for the phone microphone.
The Samsung SPH-m620 weighs 3.25 ounces and measures 3.98 x 2.05 x 0.49 inches. Its lithium-ion battery is rated at up to 3.50 hours of digital talk time. It runs on the CDMA 850/1900 frequencies. The phone comes with a one year limited warranty.

Samsung M620 Product Description

A phone you can dance to; the Samsung UpStage™ is so unique, you have to see it (and hear it) to believe it. On one side, it's a slim, stylish Samsung phone with Stereo Bluetooth® Wireless Technology and a 1.3 megapixel camera. On the other side, it's a slim, stylish Samsung music player with touch-sensitive media controls and a stereo speaker. Either way, it's a phone you'll flip over.

The Samsung SPH-m620, affectionately dubbed the "UpStage," is so unique, you have to see it (and hear it) to believe it. On one side, it's a slim, stylish Samsung phone with stereo Bluetooth wireless technology, and a 1.3-megapixel camera. On the other side, it's a slim, stylish Samsung music player with touch-sensitive media controls and a stereo speaker. Other great features include a memory card slot, advanced voice control with dictation capabilities, EV-DO high-speed data, and a 1.3-megapixel camera. With the ability to store up to 2000 songs, the m620 is the perfect choice for tech-connected power users and music lovers who need the speed of the Power Vision Network to access information while on the go.

Samsung M620 Design

The extremely unique m620 features a candy bar form factor with two faces. One side offers the typical look and feel of a modern looking MP3 player, and includes advanced music and media control keys, as well as a large 2.1-inch full color 176 x 220 display--perfect for watching optional Sprint TV media. The "phone side" sports a massive secondary screen that can display time, call information, battery and signal strength, and more. The 1.3-megapixel camera lens is housed directly above this display. Up and down buttons for volume control are placed on the left side, while most of the phone's features and on-screen menus are controlled by a five-way center button on the handset's control pad, also located on the "phone side". The phone includes 53 MB of internal memory--plenty of memory for running the music player and other advanced applications--and micro SD cards can supplement the phone's memory with its built-in memory card slot. And because the m620 has an internal antenna, there's nothing to snag or break off. Charging and USB data cable connectivity are available on the phone's bottom edge. Samsung was even nice enough to throw in support for PictBridge direct-to-printer printing (via USB).

Samsung M620 Calling Features


The m620's internal phone book can hold up to 500 contacts, and the phone's picture ID system allows you to assign pictures and ringtones to your most common callers. The phone ships with built-in polyphonic ringtones, but for those times when you want to be discreet, there's a vibrating alert. A built-in speakerphone makes it easy to talk without having the phone to your ear, and advanced voice activated dialing makes calling your friends, family, and associates easy. Simply say the name or number of the person you want to call and the number is dialed automatically without using the keypad. No prior voice training is needed. Lastly, because the m620 is Bluetooth enabled, wireless headsets can be configured with the phone for total handsfree operation.

Samsung M620 Messaging, Internet, and Tools

The m620 is a messaging powerhouse, and comes with support for Sprint's PCS picture and video mail services. You can shoot high quality pictures and video clips with sound and instantly send them to email addresses and other Sprint PCS phones that are compatible with picture and video mail services. Or, upload them to the Sprint PCS pictures Web site to create albums. You can also use the m620 to send and receive email, exchange text messages, or join a chat room. T9, a predictive text entry system, which is a technology that makes it easier for people to enter words and text on handsets, is built into the unit--a plus for mobile email and text messaging users.

The real power of the m620 comes alive with Sprint's PCS Power Vision services. Relying on Sprint's new EV-DO high speed data network, Power Vision allows you to enjoy full-color video clips or live TV of the latest news, sports, and entertainment from CNN, Fox, The Weather Channel, and more (Sprint Power Vision charges apply).

You can also stream or download music to your phone with Sprint's Music Store service. Download digital tracks instantly to your phone. Choose from hundreds of thousands of full-length songs from virtually every genre. Select songs directly from the phone and listen to them wherever you go. Even download them to your PC.

With a USB connection, the m620 can also be used as a mass storage device. And last but not least, personalized news and information tickers, and downloadable screen savers and ringtones are also available through the Sprint Power Vision service.

The m620 is packed with useful tools to make your life more productive and fun. A message dictation system lets you speak your SMS text messages into the phone, while a voice memo recorder lets you record spoken voice notes. The phone also includes an alarm clock that can be set one time or daily, a calendar with a to-do list and a scheduler, a calculator, a stopwatch, and a world clock.

Samsung M620 Imaging and Entertainment

As mentioned, the m620 features a powerful 1.3-megapixel camera that can be used to capture and send video and still images. The m620's built-in media player lets you see and hear streaming and stored media. The m620 supports MP3, AAC, and AAC+ audio files. And where will you put all those pictures, videos, and songs? Straight onto the phone's 50 MB of mass storage, or on memory cards. The phone takes gaming to the next level, too, with support for advanced Java-based games.

The m620 is also Sprint Music Store Enabled. That means you can easily download stereo-quality tracks instantly to the phone. Choose songs from thousands of artists in virtually every genre, and listen wherever you go (additional Sprint charges apply). The m620 sports an airplane mode feature, as well, which allows you to safely use the non-wireless functions of the phone (such as music, games, or organizer functions) on an airplane during flight.

Samsung beat 450

Samsung beat 450, samsung mp3 phone - SGH i450

Sporting a rare dual-slide design, the samsung 450 is one of the most interesting cool smartphone offerings recently announced !

Samsung beat 450 Key features
  • Symbian OS 9.2, Series 60 v3.1 UI
  • Dual slide design with unique Touch wheel key
  • 2.4″ 256K color TFT LCD display with QVGA resolution
  • 3G with HSDPA
  • 3.5mm standard stereo audio jack
  • microSD memory card slot for high-capacity cards
  • FM radio with RDS
  • Bluetooth v2.0 with A2DP

Samsung beat 450 Main Disadvantages
  • No WLAN
  • Average display quality
  • Mediocre camera
  • No camera lens cover
  • 3.5mm jack cannot be used to plugin a hands-free set

A music-oriented smartphone with great speakers is not the most frequent sight around, so it’s no wonder the few of those get quite a lot of attention. As we see it, with Samsung i450 it is quite COOL.


Thinking about its rivals, the first name that comes to mind is Nokia N81. Boasting nice sound quality, similar design and dimensions plus the same OS, the N-series phone will surely put up a fight with this samsung mp3 phone.

The samsung beat 450 pulls off a neat visual trick, and packs a surprising punch for music fans.
The Samsung SGH-i450 is of a rare breed called dual sliders, meaning it opens in more than one direction. In fact, the i450 slides up to reveal a 12-key number pad, and slides down to reveal a, um, what the heck is that? It looks like a wheel, but it doesn’t spin. In fact, Samsung has used touch sensors to make a pad that acts like half a wheel (maybe a bit less than half). To complete the visual metaphor, the user interface uses a circle for feedback that seems to complete the wheel onto the screen of the phone. So, you slide your finger clockwise to increase the volume, and the circle on the screen grows in the same direction. It’s a neat visual trick, and makes the phone cool to use, at first.

Besides the scroll half-wheel, the phone also hides a speaker behind the slide. With audio from Bang & Olufsen’s ICE power technology, the speaker provides surprising clarity to the music.
The phone has a few other impressive features, as well. First of all, it runs Symbian S60, which means that plenty of 3rd party apps will be available. Second, it has a 2-megapixel around back, and a VGA camera up front for video conferencing, which should be no sweat, considering the phone also uses high-speed, 3.6Mbps HSDPA for network access. You can also listen to an FM radio with your own headphones, since the i450 uses a standard 3.5mm headphone jack. Internal memory tops out at 35MB, which isn’t much, but the phone will accept microSDHC cards in capacities up to 4GB. The phone connects to headphones and PCs using Bluetooth and USB of the 2.0 variety, including A2DP for stereo Bluetooth headsets.

Symbian may be a pretty OS, but it isn’t very fast, especially when the phone lacks a heaping stack of RAM. Fast connectivity means that essential functions, like Web browsing and sideloading, should work smoothly, but when apps pile up, there could be some lag.
Samsung beat 450 is the best phone with a speaker that is also affordable (priced at around rs.12000+). And, the user interface is great.

If you want an all-around multimedia slider, the Samsung beat 450 is the way to go
Features:

1. Sliders:

Sliding the front reveals a navy blue keypad with evenly spaced and responsive keys. The keys are placed on a flat surface with arty ridges dividing them. Nice! The speakers are visible when you slide the phone down. A cool touch-sensitive navigation pad amidst the speakers means you can use it while surfing your music folder. It works fine, even if responsiveness is low
2.touch control:

The touch control feature in Samsung Beat 450 makes it stand out from others.The touch control for the music player is unlike anything we've seen on a cell phone before. When you slide the front face down, you'll see a blue arc that's just short of 180 degrees. By swiping your finger up and down the arc you can scroll through the music player menu options, which are arranged along another arc that appears on the display. It's an appealing design as the two arcs together form a full circle. The display isn't a touch screen, so you can't swipe your finger as you would on a scroll wheel, but you can move quickly though the various menu options and a long list of songs. Also, I like that you can press and hold at each end of the arc to keep moving through your song list without lifting your finger.
The phone runs on a symbian 60 series version 3.1.The UI is non-complex, and the fact that the phone is fast helps considerably.The i450 is a quad-band phone that supports 3G . I would have liked to see Wi-Fi, but had to settle for GPRS and EDGE. The inbuilt browser is cool, but no multiple pages. The phone supports many third party applications, courtesy S60.The i450 comes loaded with Realplayer for videos and also a Flash player, but what I like is that Samsung has also bundled support for Word, Excel and Powerpoint. The SGH-i450 also has support for Assisted GPS, which is a technology that pinpoints your location by connecting to nearby cellular towers or other cell phones. It's sort of an enhancer to standard GPS that is particularly useful when a connection to a GPS satellite isn't available

MUSIC:

The external speakers provided with the Samsung Beat 450 certify that it's a music phone.Music performance was quite good, again thanks to the phone's speakers. They provided decent output with loud volume, and the audio quality was more than serviceable. As usual, a headset will provide the best experience so I recommend using one.

Camera:

Unfortunately, the SGH-i450's photo quality is disappointing. Images were much too dim and rather blurry, particularly when we were focusing on smaller objects. Also, colors were distorted with reds being way too red. It's just not what we expected from a 2-megapixel camera. Video quality was a tad better, but it was far from satisfying. If you still want to print your photos, you can connect directly to a PC or printer via a cable or Bluetooth.

Battery life:

The Samsung Beat 450 has a rated battery life of 5.4 hours talk time and 21.5 days of standby time. It has a decent talk time of 6 hours and 42 minutes. You'll get a bit less battery life when using 3G service

Price of Samsung Beat 450:
in US -: starts from $259
in India:- Rs 13,250.

Samsung SCH-B600

Today Samsung is set to ship the SCH-B600, the world’s first 10MP camera phone.
The camera includes 3x optical zoom and 5x digital zoom. It also has an auto focus and a flash unit that is optimal for 10MP photos. The LED autofocus feature is the first to be found on a camera phone.

The B600 has a lot to offer besides top notch picture taking quality. For instance, it also features mobile TV capability, an “Anycall Band” feature that allows users to play a “specific melody of instruments” that can be arranged to produce a song for downloading, Bluetooth, MP3 player, MMCmicro support, business card reader, and 128 polyphonic sounds.

If you’re hoping that the SCH-B600 will be released in the states, remember that like all really cool gadgets, this phone is only currently available in the East (Korea). Hopefully that will change in the near future.

Like some of the company's previous phones, the SCH-B600 is styled to look like a conventional digital still camera from one side and a bar-type cell phone from the other side, says Martyn Williams, our colleague with the IDG News Service. The high-end camera phone made its debut at the Cebit exhibition in Germany in March.Its other features include a tuner for South Korea's TU Media satellite multimedia service, Bluetooth, MP3 player, business card reader, and TV-output--for a price tag of about $950.The phone is the latest in a line of high megapixel camera phones from Samsung. The company launched a 5-megapixel camera phone in October 2004, a 7-megapixel phone in July 2005 and an 8-megapixel model in November last year.
When people take photos with their cameraphones it is always pretty obvious. The low-quality and often useless photos that result from a cameraphone will hopefully become a thing of the past and maybe even sooner than expected. Samsung’s SCH-B600 is simply amazing because it integrates a 10MP camera right into the phone. No, this isn’t just the cheesy camera that most cellphones have either. It features a 3x optical zoom that is also complimented with a 5x digital zoom. Surprisingly, it “also has auto focus and a flash unit that performs optimally for 10 megapixel photographs.“

The announcement of this camera came several months ago but this is still astonishing. It won’t make its way over to the United States but I think it is important simply for the proof-of-concept. What’s one big problem that manufacturer’s are probably trying to tackle with these high-resolution cameraphones? I’m sure there is a huge battery life issue. I never use the cheap camera that is on my cellphone because after a few snapshots my battery is nearly drained. Heck, that’s with a camera that doesn’t have optical zoom so the battery life on this Samsung must last for only a few pictures. I wonder how long it will be until a battery will emerge that is truly “long life?”

Samsung SCH B600 specification
  • Standard: CDMA 2000 1X EVDO ( 800 MHz)
  • Camera: 10 Megapixel
  • Display: 2.2 inch 240x320 262K Color TFT

Samsung's latest music edition phone the F210 looks more like an MP3 player at first sight as you can’t seem to find any keypad. The trick is to slide out the keypad from underneath.

Samsung Omnia

Samsung has delivered yet another gem, this time with the name of Samsung Omnia. The gorgeous widget provides a wide array of world class features that make it a stunning piece of technology all together. Ultra-elegant looks and futuristic design is what separates it from other existing mobile phones in the market. The large TFT touchscreen display screen with the high-end features like Accelerometer sensor for auto-rotate and Handwriting recognition helps the users to get a different experience all together. There is also 5.0 mega pixels camera, that has the impressive ability to click the most remarkable images in no time. Samsung Omnia is blessed with abundant memory, this widget allows the users to store large data in any form. The long standby time of the battery (approximately 500 hours) also makes sure that the users need not to recharge the battery again and again, in middle of a smooth session.

The Samsung OMNIA is powered by Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional and comes packed with MS Office (PowerPoint, Excel, and Word). Even though the OMNIA is 100% touch screen, Samsung included an optical mouse for ease of navigation - the optical mouse is similar to what you’d find on laptops. Samsung OMNIA is possibly the best ever smartphone that Samsung has ever built.

The OMNIA also has a 5-megapixel CMOS camera with auto-focus (AF), face and smile detection and auto-panorama shot. OMNIA comes in 8 or 16GB memory configuration and additional storage can be added via extendable slot. Of course, a smart phone called OMNIA can’t go without having a GPS, including navigation and geo-tagging capabilities, so you’d never get lost wherever you are.
According to CNET Asia, “an orientation sensor is built into the OMNIA i900. When rotated, it does this fancy transition whereby the display shrinks and expands back to fill the screen in a different orientation. The 240 x 400 display does seem a little weird, but is not unheard of–we’ve seen it in the ASUS M930’s internal display. It makes sense, too, if you are to use it as a media player because the aspect ratio is much closer to the 16:9 aspect ratio commonly seen in movie files. To that end, the i900 also comes with a media application that supports DivX and Xvid out of the box.”

As I mentioned earlier, the OMNIA is primarily touch-based so it makes perfect sense for Samsung to include its patented TouchWiz user interface. The OMNIA is Samsung’s first ever Windows Mobile smart phone to feature TouchWiz. TouchWiz lets you personalize the home window with unique widgets. The high-resolution touch-sensitive screen uses intuitive tap, sweep, drag and drop operations as well as an on-screen QWERTY keyboard. It also facilitates easy and convenient calling and texting with a dedicated dome key for controlling communications.

The Samsung OMNIA is ultra-slim measuring 12.5mm and has a platinum look finish. Samsung added details such as elegant hairline patterns on the back of the phone to bring the “perfection in style.”
Geesung Choi, President of Samsung Telecommunication Business, said: “I am very excited to introduce Samsung , a mobile device that truly delivers the best possible features for today’s busy, connected consumer. Samsung demonstrates our vision for the Samsung mobile business, which is to provide premium phones for users who desire functionality, style, usability and entertainment in one innovative device. The mobile range will help users to be at the forefront of work and play and at the same time, to stay connected anytime, anywhere.”
The Samsung OMNIA will be unveiled at CommunicAsia, Singapore from June 17 to 20 and commercially launched in the Southeast Asian market starting from the same week. The phone will be available in the European market from July.

Samsung i8510 Innova

With the Samsung i8510 Innova, the brand breaks all records of elegance and sophistication. The look of the phone is a reason big enough to declare it as the most desirable mobile phone of all times. Unique dimensions of 106.5 x 53.9 x 17.2 mm and a broad TFT of 2.8 inches - the phone looks sensational. It comes with accelerometer sensor for auto-rotate; it also has an optical mouse. With an embedded 8 MP camera with 3264 x 2448 pixels, the laurels of the phone have spread like wildfire in the gizmo world. Features like autofocus, image stabiliser, auto-panorama shot, face, smile, blink detection and VGA video recording at 30 fps and QVGA videos at 120 fps, make it the next man-made wonder. The TV-out port comes to play when you need to watch your clips on a larger screen. The phone is equipped with a GPS receiver and a business card reader. The battery backup of the phone is remarkable with nearly 8 hours and 30 minutes talktime and (approx) 310 hours of standby. The phone is the second perfect piece of this universe, the first being the universe itself.One of the most advanced smartphones that we have ever seen, the Samsung Innov8 (also called the Samsung GT-i8510) is a 3.5G Symbian smartphone with an 8 megapixel camera, WiFi and GPS, plus an advanced multimedia player and a whole host of other features that compete head on with the Nokia N96 and N95 8GB.

Samsung are not well-known for their Symbian devices, but they have been producing them for several years now.. and the Innov8 certainly seems to benefit from Samsung's experience.

We guess that the "8" in "Innov8" refers to the i8510's advanced 8 megapixel camera. This has autofocus and a dual LED flash, plus an image stabiliser, panoramic stitching, face detection and a number of other clever features lifted straight out of Samsung's dedicated digital camera range. Sometimes we have seen disappointing video capture quality with some rival phones, but not so with the Innov8 which is capable of recording VGA resolution video at 30 frames per second, or QVGA resolution at 120 frames per second. The Innov8 also has built-in video editing and an FM radio with RDS, plus stereo Bluetooth and a 3.5mm audio output socket.
The multimedia player in the Innov8 / GT-i8510 is pretty impressive too, supporting DivX, WMV, MP3, H.263 and H.264 video plus MP3, AAC/AAC+/eAAC+, WMA, AMR and RealAudio formats. The large 2.8" QVGA display is one of the largest in its class, and is the same size as the N95 8GB and N96. The Innov8 also has stereo speakers and surround sound. In fact, when it comes to multimedia the only thing that the Innov8 lacks is a digital TV tuner and an FM transmitter.

Internal memory is either 8GB or 16GB (depending on version), usefully this can also be extended by up to 16GB using a compatible microSD card. Most of the competition offers either lots of internal memory or a memory slot, the Samsung Innov8 comes with both.
The Samsung Innov8 supports Advanced GPS (A-GPS) although it isn't clear what mapping applications are available, but Google Maps should work just fine. The GPS automatically geotags pictures taken with the digitalcamera. The built-in accelerometer can automatically switch the Innov8's display orientation. Oh yes, pop the Innov8 on its side and you can use it as a very expensive digital photo frame.

The operating system is the clumsily named Symbian OS V9.3 S60 3rd Edition Feature Pack 2. The Innov8 also comes with two interesting looking 3D games, FIFA 2008 and Asphalt. Of course, there are plenty of Symbian applications around so you can extent the Innov8's capabilities as you wish. Samsung seem to have come up with a pleasingly minimalistic interface too.

Underneath all the other features, the i8510 is a dual-band 900/2100 UMTS/HSDPA device with quand-band GSM, EDGE and GPRS data. It supports WiFi, Bluetooth 2.0 and USB 2.0 connections. The large 1200 mAh battery can power the Samsung Innov8 for up to 5 hours talktime on 3G, 8.5 hours on GSM with around 13-14 days standby time. It's quite a large device at 107 x 54 x 17.2mm.

It isn't the prettiest phone in the work, the looks can perhaps best be described as "purposeful". Overall though, this is an extremely impressive package and in our view the only thing that it could really use is a touchscreen. We understand that the Innov8 / i8510 will start to become available next month in certain markets worldwide. No pricing was specified but we would expect it to cost roughly the same as the Nokia N96 at launch, so expect to pay something in the region of £600 / €750 / $1000 or so when it comes out for a SIM free model.

1 GB of internal memory is available for you to store music, image and video files to create your own personal music & video machine.When closed, the X830 functions like an MP3 player with a music player interface that horizontally displays the playlist, equalizer settings and song information.


Flick it open and the "switch-blade" design swings open to reveal a normal mobile phone keypad.


What amazes us the most though is the fact that Samsung have managed to cram a 1.3MP camera with video, 3D soind, Bluetooth & so much more into such a tiny frame as the X830 only measures 84 x 30 x 19.9 mm & weighs just 72g.


The display turns to whichever way you have the handset & the central scroll wheel controls all the action. The sliding phone rotates its front panel to show the keyboard, but that’s not all it’s hiding. The phone comes equipped with 1GB of memory to make it an ideal replacement for your current MP3 player. The music library can be managed by song, artist or album name so it’s easy to find everything from the Arctic Monkeys to The Zutons.
