@rajdeep_v

Greate Find, but u know Indian CDMA Customers are so abused by Operators so even if a Good News is comming everybody take it by Doubts, u know 1/3rd of the CDMA Phones Post, Technology, 3G all are Dream Talked so much and never have it Hands,

anyway Goood to hear, Keep it on buddy

[kshah 452]

Not only Indian CDMA, all CDMA users except china (Where phones are easily configurable) are exploited to their limits. If I have to sat about me, I am stuck to CDMA because reliance is still cheaper for CUG and voice quality is superb. Network coverage wise Airtel and BSNL are as good.

I am waiting for MNP and I will be first person to switch from CDMA.

BTW, dual phone for 15.5K is too expensive, isnt it? for Just a basic phone.

[rajdeep_v 1]

@Hetaldp Thanks

The phone is called the Samsung SCH- W619 and with a weight of 120 grams, it is a bit bulky. But that does not make it any less on the features. Features include CDMA 800 MHz, GSM 900/1800 slider, featuring 2.3″ 320x240 QVGA touchscreen, 2 megapixel camera, microSD memory card slot, MP3 player, Bluetooth and 1200 mAh battery. The Samsung SCH W619 has two card slots and can work on both CDMA and GSM networks simultaneously and so it is bulky.Hope all d details r there.

Here is the press release.

Samsung Telecommunications India (STI), a design and technology leader in the Indian Mobile market, today, announced the launch of Samsung ‘2ON’ - its first Dual Standby CDMA cum GSM handset. Set to revolutionize the Indian market, this dual standby handset contains 2 SIM slots, one each for GSM and CDMA respectively.

According to Mr. Sunil Dutt, Country Head, Samsung Telecommunications India Pvt. Ltd., “At Samsung, our endeavour is to continuously provide our consumers with innovative, consumer friendly products and the Samsung ‘2ON’ is an example of the same .This phone aims to cater to the growing Dual Stand By market, wherein discerning consumers want the convenience of a single feature rich handset with two connections operating simultaneously. The availability of this handset in the open market will provide Indian consumers freedom to select service operator’s of their choice on GSM as well as CDMA networks.”

‘2 ON’ is a universal handset which can operate on almost all service providers in India, both GSM and CDMA. Samsung ‘2 ON’ is also the first CDMA phone which supports both Tata Indicom and Reliance Communications Value Added services on the same handset. Targeted at consumers who aspire to reap benefits of high quality mobility, the stylish Samsung ‘2 ON’ packs in host of latest cutting edge features such as 2.3” TFT Touch Screen, 2 Mega Pixel camera, Micro SD Card Slot upto 1GB, MP3/ AAC+ Player.

On the software front , the handset packs in Handwriting Recognition, File Viewer, Sketch Memo, Advanced Organiser Capability with Functional Screen and Special India Specific applications of Indian Calendar, Hinglish, Mobile Prayer and Panchang. Along with its powerful multimedia features and stylish metallic design , the Samsung ‘2 0N’ comes with a powerful 1200 ‘mAh’ battery which gives longer talk time and extra power for operating the 2 networks. The handset can also be used as a modem to access internet at robust speed of 153kbps on CDMA network.

“The Samsung ‘2 ON’ is a must have for those consumers who wish to utilize the benefits of both CDMA and GSM networks at the same time.” states Mr Dutt. Samsung ‘2On’ is also a must have for CDMA consumers who use international roaming cards of CDMA operators for roaming on GSM networks in countries which support only GSM services. The handset is priced at Rs 16,500 /-

The highlights are

• Price :: Rs.16,500
  
• "2ON"- first Dual Standby CDMA cum GSM handset from Samsung
  
• First CDMA phone which supports both Tata Indicom and Reliance Communications Value Added services on the same handset
  
• 1200 ‘mAh’ battery

means samsung has programmed necessary WAP settings for both. Thats great news for many who uses RWORLD. I just wonder how long 1200 mAH battery will last on CDMA + GSM mode.

@rajdeep_v

If you have provided the facts in the 1st post itself, i would definitely made it clear.

There is nothing like senior or junior member but please Check out each post on this board as every topic starter provides much more facts regarding the topic. These are unwritten basic ethics. You have not even mentioned the model no in the first post. Then in the second post, you put SCH-F619 & after getting the link from Kesav, changed it to SCH-W619.

It was my mistake that instead of asking you about providing the link, I put link for the duo phone model which i know.

Any way, we are not here for quarrel but to share info among us.

Thanks Kesav, for the link. Thanks KumaarShah & harismahesh for support.

Here are my neutral views.....

1) By studying(before the first reply posted by rbdhoot) the topic starter post itself, I came to the conclusion that rajdeep_v is not talking about Samsung Duo but about new mobile.

2) I recommend the members to start topic even without any postable proof (but you should be convinced about your source) since it would help other members to dig the info from somewhere in the web or from their sources.

3)Please accept in social forums we'll have people of different emotional thresholds and be polite in your replies. After all we as Indians are proud of unity in diversity.

Thanks for your support and we'll move along together to identify emerging information sprouts.
