Filed under: Handsets , Samsung , Symbian , GSM , EDGE , HSDPA Hardware fanatics, listen up -- a golden egg has been laid in the form of the Samsung I7110. Arriving with a slightly sleeker design than on the earlier spotted i7110c , this Symbian S60-based candybar has been revealed to the world today in London. Specs wise, you're looking at a luscious 2.6-inch AMOLED display, FM radio / transmitter , GPS navigation (with geotagging functionality), an accelerometer, "3D graphics," Bluetooth 2.0, HSDPA and WiFi. Additionally, it packs a 5-megapixel camera (with Auto Focus and a LED flash), robust multimedia player (DivX support included), 50MB of internal memory, a microSDHC slot, video recording, 11-hours of talk time and a 12.9-millimeter thin body. Price remains a mystery, but those in Russia will be the first in the know when it launches there next month. As for everyone else? Patience. Read | Permalink | Email this | Comments

We also have additional footage of Nokia's carrier-branded 6650 and 2600 classic , and new to this photo batch is the Curve 8320 , one-upping AT&T's existing 8300 with WiFi (not to say you'd really know it from a dummy model). A little something for everyone here, really. [Thanks, Andy C.] Gallery: AT&T's BlackBerry Curve 8320 (and friends) make an appearance Permalink | Email this | Comments

Filed under: Handsets , Nokia , Samsung , ATT , Symbian , GSM , EDGE , HSDPA , UMTS It's that most exciting time again for AT&T store owners and their customers -- yes, that's right, it's dummy time. Empty husks representing the Nokia 6650 and 2600 classic are now finding their way into employee hands, along with a rather curious Samsung that we're told might be the a637. Seriously, Sammy's done just about every form factor and gone down just about every design direction, but does this translucent white pill of a candybar not look completely fresh? Looks pretty low-end -- GoPhone territory, if we had to guess -- but if you covered up the logo, we'd guess Pantech, LG... heck, even Huawei before we put our money on Samsung. Stay tuned for versions of these things with actual electrical circuitry in 'em; they can't be far off now.

Filed under: Handsets , Samsung , Symbian No, no -- Sammy wouldn't dare dub this the Mullet, although we have a sneaking suspicion it would sell quite well here in the south if such a bold decision were made. Nevertheless, the i7110c (that's more like it, no?) has just been revealed, and while a great deal of mystery still surrounds it, we are told that it will likely boast a QVGA display, a navigational cube that acts as a cursor controller, 5-megapixel camera (with flash), microSD expansion slot, multimedia player, Bluetooth and an FM tuner. We must say, we're strangely attracted to the harmonious mix of business-like design cues and consumer-friendly attributes, though it would be nice if Samsung came on out and made this thing official.

Filed under: Handsets , Nokia , Symbian , GSM , EDGE , HSDPA , UMTS Indians are among the very first lucky denizens of the world to get a crack at Nokia's 6220 classic , one of the high-end handsets introduced at Mobile World Congress back in February. Though it doesn't get slapped with an Nseries label, it probably should on account of a 5 megapixel camera with xenon flash, AGPS, TV-out, and HSDPA, all underpinned by S60 -- so why isn't it an N something-or-other, then? Our only guess is that it takes a moderately different, more conservative styling direction than the modern Nseries line, because we'd argue the local asking price of 19,959 rupees (about $464) is more than enough to push it into "multimedia computer" category.

Filed under: Handsets , Nokia , Symbian , NTT DoCoMo , GSM , EDGE , HSDPA , UMTS We know that Nokia's got a version of its recently-announced 6124 classic midrange S60 candybar designed to support i-mode, but it's not meant for NTT DoCoMo itself; instead, it's being shipped off to Taiwan where Far EasTone licenses the i-mode service. New FCC documents reveal that the mothership might want a piece of the action, too, though. Actually, never mind the "might" -- the carrier's logo is pretty clearly emblazoned across the rear, so we're going to go ahead and say that Japanese S60 fans can look forward to another munition in their relatively thin arsenal sometime soon.
