Normally, we don’t like to post about every new cellphone in the world. There’s simply too many to count and besides, that leaves us with room to post the really cool ones. This time around, Samsung has finally announced the long-awaited Jet. Photos of this phone have been floating around for over a year if I recall, so it’s nice to see it out in the open.
So on to the details: This fucker packs a 3.1-inch AMOLED touchscreen, a crazy 3-D interface that is controlled via that wacky cube at the bottom of the phone, a 5-megapixel digicam with flash and autofocus, 2GB of built-in memory, audio jack, WiFi, DivX and Xvid codecs and to top it off, an 800 MHz processor. Can you believe these specs? Talk about a serious contender to the iPhone, especially with Xvid playback and a processor that’s faster than the desktop I owned several years ago.
No word on a release date or who’s going to carry it.
I was wondering if the UK model have Wi-Fi? The http://jet.samsungmobile.com/ website doesn�t state anything about this model having it and I emailed Samsung customer services to ask them and I got the reply �In response to your email regarding the wi-fi query. We can advise that this handset does not have the option for wi-fi.� A lot of sites do state that the phone carries Wi-Fi, but none of them are official Samsung sites so I am led to believe different things.
