Samsung Trance Might Come to Verizon in Q2

Some more leaked info on the yet unannounced Samsung SCH-u490 Trance mobile phone has surfaced recently to the web, showing up some pages from the user manual of said mobile phone, which is expected to head towards Verizon.

What the Samsung SCH-u490 Trance is expected to come around with is a touch-sensitive control panel, as well as a slide-out numeric keypad, which should allow for convenient texting. At the same time, the new handset comes in a black color scheme.

The mobile phone, which seems to feature the same touch control pad as the LG Venus did, is also expected to come around sporting a 3.5mm headset jack, a nice feature for the device, as well as a microSDHC memory card slot offering users additional storage space capacity. On the back, the Samsung SCH-u490 Trance features a large speaker at the top, yet it is uncertain if it will prove to be a high-performance one, as no Bang & Olufsen branding can be spotted on it, as originally expected.

The new device is reported to feature a Mobile Web 2.0 browser, although it will not include EVDO connectivity for data transfers. The mobile phone is also expected to include 1GB of internal memory dedicated to music, as well as 128MB more for files and downloads. We should also be able to see a 1.3-megapixel CMOS photo snapper.

For the time being, all that surrounds the Samsung SCH-u490 Trance are rumors, so it is not certain that the device will actually include these features when released to the market. Yet, according to the news, we should be able to learn what it is able to offer as soon as it is available, which should happen in the second quarter of the year. And perhaps we'll also be able to have a look at the handset at CTIA.
