Samsung SCH-W599, the Latest Dual SIM Phone

on Minggu, 14 Desember 2008


Samsung unveiled another dual SIM mobile phone, Samsung W599 (or Samsung SCH-W599), which will first be launched in China. The SCH-W599 supports both 800MHz CDMA and GSM carrier networks as well as boasting dual GSM SIM card use simultaneously.

The South Korean company seems to give a special attention to dual SIM devices, as these are currently very popular in Asia and they could also become “wanted” in Europe and the US.

The new W599 is a candybar form cell phone, and its navigation keys are interestingly integrated as to form a circle. The phone does not have a hardware keypad, hence most of the data input is made through its 2.4 inch touchscreen display with 260K colors, a QVGA (240 x 320) resolution and handwriting recognition.

Besides, this handset sports 2 megapixel camera, FM radio and Bluetooth, email, Instant Messaging, Wap browser, embedded games, 34MB of internal memory and microSD card support for several extra GBs. The phone measures 103.1 x 53 x 16.4 millimeters and includes a 1200 mAh Li-Ion battery that should provide a decent talk-time / stand-by time.

The W599 will be available in China for 4,490 yuan (approximately $650) and like other Samsung’s phones in Asia, it will be branded “Anycall” (which you can see in the above photos).
