Eek! Must restore... cardiac function... ahh, there we go. Samsung's Ultra Editions seem to get
classier,
glossier, and more
far-fetched with every subsequent iteration -- and if they haven't already jumped the shark, they have now with the rather breathtaking Ultra Smart F700. The candybar with a slide-out QWERTY 'board makes do with 7.2Mbps (yes, we said
"seven point two") HSDPA plus EDGE for those occasions when 3G towers are out of reach, a 2.78 inch touchscreen sporting no fewer than 440 x 240 pixels, microSD expansion, full HTML browsing, Bluetooth, and a whopping 5 megapixels of snapping power on the backside. Per protocol, America is left squarely out of the equation with GSM 850 and WCDMA 850 / 1900 all coming up missing, but at least folks in the greater Barcelona area should get a shot at it next week when it bows all official-like at 3GSM.

reminds me of the nokia tablets, but with phone functionality.

Those Koreans are making rotate the world the other way round! Their world clock reads: New York 13 February, Belin still 12 February. I hope the real product will be a bit more refined than their virtual mock-up.
Any news about the Operating System they are going to use? If it's a home-made, closed solution instead of a nicely skinned Symbian even the sexiest phone is a no go...
I could go for this for sure!
I'd love this if it came with wm6 pro (ppc)
It looks like a iphone with full QWERTY keyboard. 3G and 5 megapixels? I will give up the iphone for this toy.
I'm no coding wizard by any standard. I couldn't build a decent looking website to save my life. But is it seriously THAT difficult to merge comment threads between engadget.com and engadgetmobile.com?
why is everyone comparing every new phone now with the iphone? hmmm, i guess the iphone really is a big deal. all this talking about it shows how much people really want one lol
Do we know when this beauty will be available in Europe? Or do we have to wait for the Barcelona show?
This shit makes me hate living in the US.
Shitballs, we never get the goods in the states.
Impressive phone indeed. This is what Ive been screaming for. Big screen and a slide out querty + bad ass cam + mp3 = goodness!
Gerhard: That's how the dates are written in Eurasia because that's conventional and techinically, the right ways from most specific: day to month to year. I also write my dates like that.
The phone is pretty nice, but I'm looking into the Nokia N95 to replace my phone because I need the GSM 850 band. I've already suffered with a N93 without 850 and I lack reception when everyone else has. And yes, thumb keyboards lead to arthritis in the thumbs.
What OperatingSystem is this phone using. Im amazed that we've gone this long without anyone mentioning what this phone will be using.
That is insanely beautiful. And only 16.4 mm fat? Way too feature laden (read: expensive) for me, and of course, way too gorgeous to actually make it to the good ole U.S., but a girl can dream. [Sigh.]
im getting this babe
