Samsung U700 - There is One for Every Need

The sleek Samsung U700 is a tri-band GSM slider camera phone phone. It features a touch-sensitive interface. The device is equipped with a 3.2 megapixel camera with autofocus and 4x digital zoom. Its sliding mechanism works remarkably well. To slide open the device, one just needs to push it halfway, the rest is taken care of by a spring mechanism.

The device's front fascia is made up of a glossy mirror-like material which elegantly encloses its navigation key. The most attractive part of the Samsung U700 is its round navigation key which is located just beneath the display. There is both an aesthetic and practical reason behind the choice of its shape. The navigation key can be scrolled in four directions with notable ease. Its central part is used for confirming a selected option. When pressed, it gently sinks beneath the ring level.

The device weighs 86 gm and measures 102.5 x 12.1 x 50 mm. It has a 2.2 inch, 262 K colours TFT-LCD monitor that has a resolution of 240 x 320 pixel. It has 40 MB of installed memory that can be expanded further by using a micorSD memory card. It makes use of a rechargeable Li-Ion battery that has a talktime of upto 5 hours and a standby time of upto 270 hours.

A surprise lies in stock for the unsuspecting user of the Samsung U700. There are two red and green receivers on the sides of the navigation key. Samsung has hidden not less than four keys under their hoods. These are marked by pictograms of video calls and application switches. There are also two context keys that appear illuminated in white as soon as the keypad is unlocked. It may take you a bit longer to get used to its touch-sensitive interface. Successful 'presses' of the keys are acknowledged by a twinkle of the backlight of the respective key. The touch-sensitive keys react to the touch of fingers as skin is a good conductor of electricity. The keypad is locked automatically during a call so that the device does not hang up by an unintentional touch of the user's cheek, fingers or ear.

The Samsung U700 is available at attractive bargain price across the retailers in the UK. The retailers are also offering special discount on the device during the Christmas season. Give a Samsung U700 as Christmas gift to someone you really love.
