Samsung have launched the successor to the highly successful B100 (Samsung Guru) model, the Samsung B200. One of the main strong holds for the Samsung model was the attractive series of ads they had promoted the product with. The product itself was meant to be a basic entry level model with no oomph value attached to it. It was a sturdy no frills model. What it did have was a whooping 9 hour continuous talk time battery life.
LG have announced that they will be launching three new models in our markets. The three models would be LG KF510, LG KP320 and LG KP110. They would be additions to their fairly popular music oriented series, the Dynamite series and the low end editions which they have plethora of devices actually.
The KF510 which seems to be in the limelight is actually a music oriented handset. It has a 3MP AF flash camera along with red eye reduction and image stabilization. It has GPRS EDGE for connectivity and Bluetooth and FM radio. Also present is MPEG-4 player and dedicated MP3 player. Besides all this the fruit on the cake is that it can record video in QVGA resolution and also play back.
Targeted at style oriented customers, the 10.9mm thick KF510 is also equipped with a touch sensitive navigational keypad. Its 2.2-inches 240 x 320 pixels LCD display is covered by tempered glass and features a light sensor on the front in addition to power-saving auto-luminance control.
The new member to the Dynamite series clan, LG KP320 features a 3 megapixel camera with auto focus, video-recording, speaker phone, document viewer, email and Internet capabilities and high internal memory with TV out feature. Targeting the youth and mainly young women, the phone measures 107 x 46 x 13.5 millimeters and weighs just 81 grams. Moreover, the phone has 2 inch TFT display with 262k colors back up, music and video player, FM radio and Bluetooth.
The primary features of the LG KP320 are these:
The low end newcomer, the ‘extremely lightweight’ KP110 is an expansion of LG’s Bullet Series, which saw tremendous success amongst first timers and college students. The phone targets first-time phone buyers inclined towards music. Additional features of the phone includes MP3 player, FM radio on speaker phone; the ability to store around 500 phone numbers and 500 SMS messages, expandable memory up to 2GB; GPRS and WAP connectivity; and battery life up to 4 hours of talk time, 400 hours standby time and many others.
