Samsung F210 and F200 New Music Phones
Music phones are becoming a popular option for consumers not wishing to carry with them more than one device whilst out and about, with mobile phones offering ever increasing memory and updated music software there is now storage space on a par with top standalone MP3 Players such as the iPods to save enough tracks and playlists to keep most music enthusiasts satisfied.
Samsung Mobile released a new music phone that took this one step further with the Samsung X830, the phone was designed very much with an MP3 player in mind and because of its size and dimensions was able to be worn around the neck on a lanyard making it easier to wear earphones rather than hidden in an inside pocket.
Following on from the X830, the manufacturer has now released two upgraded versions with a better camera resolution, updated music software and an expanded feature set, these new devices are part of the new F-Series of Samsung phones and share the same compact design as the X830 in that they too can be worn around the neck.
The two new handsets are the Samsung F200 and Samsung F210 music phones.
Both models feature the unique swivel actions of the X830, whereas the user simply slides the underneath of the phone around 180 degrees to reveal the keypad and effectively doubles the length of the phone so the distance between the speaker and the microphone are a perfect fit to the face.
The F200 is the budget version not offering a camera and with a smaller internal memory it concentrates purely on music, calls and text.
The Samsung F210 is a far more interesting device that offers a 2.
0 megapixel camera compared to the 1.
3 megapixel of the X830 as well as a very healthy internal memory of 1GB that can be expanded further with the use of MicroSD memory cards.
The F210 is very slightly larger than the original X830 simply to accommodate the extra features and specification but only weighs 2g more at just 76g so will not be uncomfortable when worn around the neck.
The exterior of the phone is finished in a light grey graphite colour and offers a metallic jog dial that gives access to the music player, phonebook and menu functions when the handset is closed.
Other F210 features include TriBand frequency for global roaming, Bluetooth technology for wireless connections to compatible devices for data transfer and hands-free conversation, integrated music player with the option to create playlists and an FM radio for keeping updated with local and national news and weather reports as well as enjoying a new tune.
The built-in camera has zoom function and flash and is capable of video recording and playback all of which can be stored on the ample internal memory before sharing via Bluetooth or sending via text message or even downloaded to a PC using a cable.
The F210 also offers a large TFT 1.
5 inch display screen, ideal for viewing photos and video clips captured with the camera.
Users of the X830 will welcome these new F-Series additions to Samsung's product portfolio especially with the larger memory, better camera and upgraded features of the F210.
