A phone that will not stand out

Samsung has prepared some interesting S60 mobile phones for a future release, including the i450, i550 and i570. We have heard before of the last two models, but the i450 phone seems to have sprung out of nowhere.

Samsung i450 looks quite simple and user friendly, exactly what this device eventually turns out to be. Its colors are quite friendly and look excellent for a less demanding handset. Moreover, it has slightly rounded corners and easy to use keypad buttons, which makes the device comfortable to handle. Its design is far from being elegant, but will prove to be perfect for those looking for something that will not stand out, but won't be too dull either.

The fact that it is a S60 device running third edition will make it appealing to many people, although it is not the sole feature bound to attract users. The handset manages to pack HSDPA performances, which makes it possible to reach high data transfer speeds of up to 3.6 Mbps.

The phone comes equipped with a 2 megapixel camera. That will fail in providing images at a stunning quality, but will be just the right thing for capturing memories and important personal events. Pictures will display at a fairly good quality on the 2.3-inch display screen, due to the 320 x 240 pixels resolution and the 262 k colors.

There is also a secondary camera, for placing high quality video calls, as to make the best of this phone. Those looking for entertainment in their handsets will also be happy to know that Samsung i450 includes a videoplayer and audioplayer. The phone also features Bluetooth and USB connectivity, as most evolved devices do. Moreover, the 1GB of internal memory space will also be backed up by a microSD card slot.

No information on the exact date or on the price that Samsung i450 will come at have been revealed until now. More official news should come with an official release.
