Samsung's super slim smartphone

by Julian Prokaza on Wednesday 07 May 2008 Comment

Samsuing i200This is, according to Samsung, the world's slimmest smartphone and, at 11.8mm, who are we to argue? Despite its diminutive size, it manages to pack Windows Mobile 6.1 and HSDPA into its candybar frame. There's also a cunning light sensor to adjust the backlight according to the conditions, eeking out the standby time to a hearty 15 days.

The QVGA screen stretches to 2.3in. A 2mp camera and a microSD slot have also been squeezed in, which is just as well because there's only 25MB on-board for the media player to take advantage of.

It'll be out this month as an Orange and Carphone Warehouse exclusive. Pricing is TBA.
