Today
the South Korean handset manufacturer officially unveiled Samsung F490,
a rich multimedia mobile phone with all-over 3.2-inch display, no
hardware keypad and 5 megapixel camera running on the award-wining
Croix UI.
The tri-band HSDPA/EDGE-enabled Samsung
F490, a phone we've recently wrote about, looks like the younger
brother of Samsung F700 since it features no hardware keyboard and is
completed in bar form factor. No doubt the F490 has its own strengths
too, standing at only 11.8mm thickness with rounded corners and glossy
surface, loaded with some nice features on board.
The
extra large 3.2-inch TFT touchscreen with 240 x 432 pixels resolution
occupies almost the entire front panel, leaving only a small space
bellow for the call and end keys, which are also touch sensitive.
The
haptic feedback further facilitates the phone handling, offering
tangible assurance that the touchscreen has accepted your command. The
16:9 widescreen ratio of the display benefits picture, video and
internet browsing, too. The video player supports WMV, MPEG4, H.263,
H.264 file formats in up to VGA resolution at 30fps.
Other
intriguing feature is the 5 megapixel camera with built-in LED flash
but sadly no autofocus. This is the first 5-megapixel camera fitted
into a mobile phone that lacks autofocus to assist the user.
The
camera is also capable of recording MPEG4 clips with QVGA resolution at
15 fps. Storing favorite video files, music and pictures is easy with
the 130 MB on-board memory and slot for microSD cards.
Music
addicts will appreciate the standard 3.5mm audio jack of Samsung F490.
As the Bluetooth supports A2DP profile, users will be able to listen to
music on wireless stereo headsets, too.
A nice final touch gives the pre-installed Google Search application and the optimized full HTML web browser (NetFront 3.4). |
