Techie Review: Samsung Mobile Phones

As I've promised, I'll be giving a review about these latest Samsung Mobile Phones and how they're set to invade the techie world. So, let's make this quick:

Samsung Blue Earth

Samsung has just revealed another ‘eco-friendly’ solar phone, the Samsung Blue Earth. The handset is made from PCM (Post Consumer Material - a recycled plastic) and got a concept of environment-friendly UI.

The phone may work in an eco-mode including Eco-Walk which adapts screen brightness, backlight duration and Bluetooth usage. The Blue Earth also has a built-in pedometer which shows CO2 emissions by walking instead of driving.

Beside those features, the Samsung Blue Earth has a solar panel on the back for needed charging. Unfortunately, there are no specifications, pricing and availability at this moment yet, but we are sure it’ll be interesting news of this year.

Samsung W510 and F268

This one will be quick, since most of its features were vague as of the moment.

Samsung has released two new environmental friendly phones W510 and F268. The W510 is made from “bio-plastic” created with natural materials extracted from corn and F268 features alarm that let you know when is charged so you can unplug it and save the energy.

Also W510 features 2.1 inch display, 2MP camera, Bluetooth, FM radio, microSD slot. F268 packs 2MP camera, 2.1 inch VGA display, Bluetooth. Both phones will be available by the end of the month in Korea.

Alright, so that's it for my short review. There's a lot whole of Samsung Phones being launched just recently. However, I chose these four primarily because of their deviance upon those other phones. Thankies infochat.com.ph for the rundown! :)
