Samsung SGH-i300 music smart phone

Juniper Foo | Mar 11, 2005

Looks like Samsung isn't resting until it rules the world. Scary thought? Well, not for music aficionados who've been waiting for a phone--aside from Sony Ericsson's upcoming Walkman handset--that can beat dedicated players and store tons of music files. Make that 3GB (or about 1,000 songs) worth in a hard drive that resides under the SGH-i300's hood. What's more, this mobile packs plug-&-play files-to-go, so you can use it like a removable hard disk drive. Needless to say, this portable boombox beats a rhythm through stereo speakers capable of 3D sound, and can download online music via operator-dependent services. Now where can we sign up for one?

Samsung 7-megapixel SCH-V770 phone

Juniper Foo | Mar 10, 2005

Samsung is once again leaving its rivals eating dust as the Korean chaebol took the lid off its 7-megapixel camera-phone at CeBIT, Hannover. The SCH-V770 is more prosumer cam than phone, with a 3x optical lens, 5x digital zoom, autofocus, advanced flash, shutter speed controller and auto exposure lock. There's even an option to add on a wide-angle or telephoto lens (hopefully with optical stabilizer), as well as view images or video on your telly. No word on what the expansion options are, though we know there's 32MB of memory onboard. To keep up with all that fire power, there's a 16 million color QVGA TFD-LCD display and just about every kind of frills you probably won't use. We reckon this is going to be hell on battery life, not to mention that this is probably one heavyweight monster. And we don't mean features. (image courtesy of Samsung)
