14 DAY TRIAL // The IFA Consumer Electronics show in Berlin will surely bring out some long expected devices. Samsung SGH-F330 is only one of them and has been presented during the run-up after a long wait and little information on this device.
Samsung has released a great number of mobile phones this year, but it looks like they are not close to ending it, as more and more keep appearing. The F330 is one of the more average handsets coming from this producer, capable of providing solutions only slightly above the basic one for the most common communication needs.
One thing that surely gains some credit for this device is its design. Samsung SGH-F330 comes with elegant, smooth lines and a stylish combination of white and marine blue. All easy access music functions come in white, which resembles an iPod pattern. This is a music phone above all and that is obvious right from the main navigation keys that enclose playlist managing buttons and also a special one for accessing the music player.
The device shows some interest in responding to other needs aside from the music listening one. It comes equipped with a camera capable of taking captures at 2 megapixels, enough for what looks to be a music phone. There is also a VGA front camera, used for placing video calls.
From this secondary camera, we can see the fact that Samsung SGH-F330 is a 3G-enabled phone. Not only that, but it is capable of reaching data transfer speeds of up to 3.6 Mbps through HSDPA technology. The 2.1 inch display screen is capable of supporting a resolution of 240 x 320 pixels, enough for quite good video viewing.
One appealing feature on this mobile phone is that it has only 12.8 mm in thickness, quite impressing for a slider. Moreover, there is also 1 GB on-board song storage and also a microSD card slot for making sure that the user has enough storage space for all his/her music.
