Samsung B7300 Will be Released Immediately
Posted on | May 18, 2009 | No Comments
Samsung B7300 will be released soon in the near future. The leaked Samsung B7300 runs a TouchWiz-skinned Windows Mobile OS, in the tradition of the original Samsung i900 Omnia, unlike S8300, which had TouchWiz as well but was a feature phone. The B7300 display is the same as the one on the Omnia – a 3-inch WQVGA TFT touchscreen. The source says 320 x 400 but it’s obviously a typo since the screen on the photos has an aspect ratio pointing towards WQVGA.
Internet agility wasn’t on the list of top priorities when Samsung were designing the phone – there’s no Wi-Fi or 3G, just EDGE. There’s sort of an explanation for this – the phone is headed for China Mobile and they have yet to roll out a 3G network.
Samsung B7300 isn’t pretty, expensive
What gives the Samsung B7300 some appeal is the built-in GPS. The rest is pretty standard – Bluetooth 2.0, microSD slot, FM radio, microUSB port. The camera has fallen victim to cost-reduction, it’s just a 3 megapixel one, which is a step down from the Omnia, and quite a drop compared to the S8300.
Like we said, it’s an Omnia lite. The dimensions of the phone haven’t suffered though, at 107.9 x 51.8 x 13 mm and just over 100 grams it’s actually a bit smaller.
Release date and price are not known yet, not even if it will come to our shores or be China-only.
