Samsung Wave

Samsung’s brand new touch screen Bada phone, the Samsung Wave S8500, affectionately known as ‘The Wave’, was released on June 1st, 2010 nad is available at phone retailers all over the country including Dialaphone. Samsung have seemingly upped their game with an all new Super AMOLED display which gives crystal clear quality for the user. The resolution is 3.3” in size, and operates on a 16M colour capacitive touchscreen, which in itself displays an 800 x 400 pixel resolution. The weight it only 118g, which is fairly light for a smartphone with 108.9 x 53.5 x 11.9 dimensions.

Another excellent feature of the Samsung Wave is its battery life. Nowadays, smartphones tend to come equipped with high quality displays and an array of different features and applications, yet this severely effects the amount of time between required charges, however, the Samsung Wave seems to have got around this problem, and boasts an impressive 180 minutes of battery talk time, and an outstanding 450 hours of standby time. All the features are explained on dialaphones website, Visit the site for more info.

The phone also features a 1 GHz processor, which is a worth addition, especially when considering most users of the Wave will spend much of their time using the high quality camera, surfing the Internet, or sending email messages. This aforementioned camera has 5 megapixels, and with the phone’s ability to hold 2GB/8GB of internal storage (and the potential for 32GB with a microSD card), owners of the wave will have no trouble editing and storing digital photographs. Samsung’s all new S8500 is also the first of its kind to house the technology firm’s software platform ‘Bada’.

Highlight features of the new mobile operating system include a web browser based on the open-source WebKit, as well as Adobe Flash, which Samsung’s developers have been keen to include in one of their smartphones for some time now. Bada also offers interactive mapping with points of interest, motion sensing (for use with the 5 megapixel camera), vibration control, face detection, and accelerometer, magnetometer, tilt, and GPS. Native applicatons are all developed in C++, and Bada can also run Java ME Applications.
