Honest 836 Report post Posted December 17, 2008 Samsung W690 has an AMOLED display and GPS In a move bound to diversify its mid-end phone offering, Samsung has just launched the Samsung SCH-W690, a new clamshell that should be soon available in South Korea, via SK Telecom. The W690 comes in two color versions (black and white) and looks quite elegant. Its alphanumeric keypad seems to be very user-friendly, thanks to those large keys. One of the phone’s nicest features is the 2.6 inch internal AMOLED screen that supports 240 x 320 pixels and 262K colors. Nokia’s N85 Nseries smartphone packs a similar display, with the difference that the N85 one supports 16 million colors Anyway, here are the other features of Samsung W690: GSM and HSDPA connectivity GPS 1.5 inch OLED external display with 128 x 128 pixels and 65K colors MP3 player Bluetooth 2MP camera 800 mAh battery 123 grams 101 x 51.6 x 16.95 millimeters Courtesy : Unwiredview Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Honest 836 Report post Posted December 24, 2008 Samsung SCH-W690 Anycall Origin launched in Korea Samsung is targeting so-called “Active Seniors” with its newest handset, the SCH-W690, or simply, the Anycall Origin. And while Samsung didn’t make it entirely clear what exactly Active Seniors were, well, I think the terms “active” and “senior” in there more than sum it up. One of this new handset’s key features is its 2.6-inch AM-OLED screen, giving it great readability. There’s a front-facing camera that can presumably be used for video calls as well. Besides which, there’s also a 2-megapixel camera on board, with FM radio, GPS, 8GB of internal memory. While this simple-looking mobile phone looks, um, simple so far, it’s features actually go a lot further than they first seem. For example, its 2-megapixel camera is said to have a smile-shutter feature that makes it automatically capture photos of subjects when they smile. Plus, it’s equipped with a bunch of health-related features that many “active seniors” will surely love. Pricing and availability of this phone has not yet been specified.
