Meant to stand out

There is little time left to wait until the Samsung Bang & Olufsen Serenata phone hits the market, which makes the recently leaked live images of it come just right. The eccentric design still looks unusual and leaves some question marks on the capabilities of this device.

The images also show the triangular charger/docking station made in polished anodized aluminum that the Samsung Bang & Olufsen Serenata phone ships with. The design lines are smooth and definitely break the regular design that most handsets have. Got to hand it to Samsung, as well as to B&O, this new mobile phone looks way better than the first one they released as a result of their partnership.

The live images leave all the mystery that surrounds this specific handset, as it's still difficult to tell what hidden features it has to offer. The slider still looks intriguing, as there is no sign of a classic keypad provided. Moreover, it still looks as if the phone is upside down and that it acts somewhat differently when handled.

All these impressions and weird look of the Samsung B&O Serenata phone are quite welcomed, especially as such a great number of mobile phones out there look just about the same nowadays. It's difficult to make a device capable of standing out and that's exactly what the Serenata phone manages to do.

Specifications are also quite impressive, as Samsung's fashionable device is 3G enabled, which should make it a great deal easier to transfer music files. This is a music phone of the best kind and should also manage to render sounds at a high quality. It even has some EarSet 3 earphones, both fashionable and great for connecting the phone to a hi-fi as an auxiliary source.

Samsung B&O Serenata will be released in Russia and Ukraine until the end of this year, coming at the price of EUR 1000. Customers can also choose to purchase a special Bang & Olufsen DECT accessory for another USD 100.
