That’s not a typo.
It is Four Pounds and Ninety-Five Pence Only.
Less than FIVE POUNDS!
They’ll be giving them away in Christmas Crackers soon.
Carphone Warehouse have launched the handset today — just in time for Christmas.
So think twice about whether or not you want a circa £900 commitment to get hold of an iPhone 3G. Perhaps [...]
With a headline that will be lost on some, Samsung’s 8MP Pixon touch screen camera phone gets an exposure on O2.
This builds on from their first 8 megapixel i8510 phone launched in August, along with almost marrying the full touch screen abilities of their Omnia i900.
Recently LG made the claim of having the slimmest touch [...]
Just got this in…
We heard a while back that the Samsung Cleo was on its way, and and
now it’s arrived — well, if you’re lucky enough to live in Canada,
anyway. It’s not the only square flip phone on the planet, but it’s
definitely the most fashion-conscious. As far as we can tell, specs
are pretty much beside [...]
Samsung have snapped up elements of Scalado’s rather swish imaging software services that blew us away at the Symbian Smartphone Show the other week (see video1 and video2).
Here’s what the news release says:
Samsung Electronics has signed a contract with Scalado, the leader in mobile imaging software solutions, to licence and integrate Scalado SpeedTags™ technology into [...]
Our resident new student, Dan Pullen, has been having a look at the Samsung Omnia. Having obtained one, what does he reckon? Let’s find out.
Caution, though: The Omnia is Windows Mobile… which as we all know is a rather challenging OS for anyone other than the most patient…

Hello, hello!
We are most definitely BACK this week — back in London after the international shows we’ve been publishing over the last two weeks. The team is in one place. In fact they’re positively beaming with excitement.
In this week’s show:
- We visit the LG Renoir launch and take a look at the handset [...]
I can’t tell you how pleased I am that my newest handset purchase — the Samsung ACE from Sprint — works perfectly fine on Vodafone UK. It’s a CDMA/GSM handset — which is why I bought it — only to find out that I didn’t have the right account settings in order to use [...]
Continue ReadingI wandered over to Victoria this evening take a look at what would be big for Christmas this year from Carphone Warehouse (silly name, good shop). It ranged from the ‘meh’ to the ‘wow’ so here’s a quick overview in pictures. The event was organised as a ‘home’ with each vendor in a different room…
Netbooks [...]
Continue ReadingI was just having a geekery chat with MIR staffer, Ben Smith. He was at the Carphone Warehouse Christmas Preview event and, amongst the predictable stocking fillers, he came across the new Samsung handset — the i8510 — which runs Symbian S60.
Mr Symbian himself, Rafe Blandford, had the gossip a few months [...]
Well we’re set for an interesting few years aren’t we?� Apple have their toys, Google have theirs and now Nokia has got their own Symbian sandpit to play with as reported by CNBC:
Nokia said on Tuesday Samsung Electronics had accepted Nokia’s offer to buy out its stake in software firm Symbian, and Nokia now has [...]

Im being serious here. Since my time here as Mobile Industry Review Ive read hundreds of news articles on the latest goings on with the mobile industry. Yes a lot of the so called news is terribly boring, but every now and then, I have to sit back laugh, and ask why?
Ricky kindly sent me [...]
Samsung smartphones have been given a bit of a speed boost thanks to a new bit of software the handset giant’s developed. The software will make any handsets using its own proprietary embedded flash memories, OneNAND, Flex-OneNAND and moviNAND, complete the sort of multimedia-heavy actions devices do regularly - like booting, downloading and searching - [...]
Continue ReadingI was just browsing the Carphone Warehouse site, and noticed the Back to School offers they have. This however wasnt what I was interested in; it was something called SOS Messaging.
SOS messaging according to the CPH website is:
Feeling in danger? Simply press the volume key 4 times on your phone to
discreetly alert your parents that [...]
Having just taken on a new role I’m having to get another mobile phone and mobile number.
It’s not such a big problem and, because I’m on Orange, I’ll just grab a BlackBerry for work but it has left me frustrated at Samsung and all of the mobile operators I’ve called this morning. The Samsung D880 [...]
Samsung, it would seem, is about to join Sony and produce an 8mp camera phone. News is abound on every site from Pocket Lint to i4u. And I for one cannot wait to get my hands on the device.
If Samsung has designed it well and kept the optical zoom function then the phone picture [...]
Has anyone else used the Samsung sport’s phone yet? It’s called the F110 (or Adidas) and I’ve been testing it to see if it holds its own against the iPod Nike+, Nokia N82 and a Polar heart rate monitor when using it for sports training.
Similar to the Nike+ iPod, the device promises to play [...]
While the iPhone hype machine was going into overdrive earlier this week, Samsung slipped out its latest device: the Omnia. It’s a fully-specced beauty, but its design is oddly reminiscent of the iPhone.
It’s got a five megapixel camera with smile detection, decent internal memory with 8GB or 16 GB options, GPS with navigation and [...]
I kid ye not. Intomobile has the goss.
Continue ReadingCould this really be the green light we’ve been waiting for? It looks like, after all the delays and to-ing and fro-ing with partner Clearwire, Sprint’s WiMax network is finally ready for take-off.
Sprint said that it’s now finished commercial testing of its Xohm network, alongside buddy Samsung, and the WiMax network is now meeting [...]
After flirting with mobile VoIP for a while, Skype looks like it’s about to get properly stuck in. The company’s announced that it’s brought out a beta version of the Skype client for “50 of the most popular Java-enabled mobile phones from Motorola, Nokia, Samsung and Sony Ericsson”.
All the usual features are enabled - chat, [...]
After the Motorola fiasco, it looks like it’s Samsung’s turn to start making headlines for all the wrong reasons. Head of Samsung, Lee Kun-hee, has resigned from his post after being charged with tax evasion last week, alongside a number of other executives. Other high-ranking Samsung staffters have also handed in their resignations, including the [...]

If you’re the sort of person that finds it difficult to get out of bed and haul yourself down to the gym, Adidas and Samsung think they’ve come up with a device just for you. It’s called miCoach, and it’s not just a mobile, it’s an “interactive training system” which gathers data on the user’s [...]
