Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd., a leading mobile phone and telecommunication equipment provider, today announced the launch of Samsung G400, its latest dual screen clamshell.
Mr. Sandeep Saihgal, General Manager of Mobile Phones Division at Samsung Gulf Electronics commented: “Samsung G400 inherits the look and feel of Samsung’s flagship product Soul with unique premium exterior and graphical user interface design identity. Samsung has introduced a clamshell version of Soul, continuing its leadership in clamshell form factor as well as sliders. Samsung G400 has a luxurious high gloss metallic finish with a hairline texture.”
“Similar to Soul, the Samsung G400 also offers a new series of graphic user interfaces (GUI) providing three different options for users. With the GUI skin, users can change the UI according to their personal tastes. Display skins are customizable with various options such as background images, fonts and colors.” Mr. Saihgal added.
In addition to an internal 2.22 TFT LCD display, Samsung’s G400 has a 2.22” external full touch screen display. With the external full touch display, users can operate multimedia features without opening the folder and haptic vibration feedback is given when user uses full touch screen. Seamless operation of multimedia features including FM radio, music, camera, and photo album is possible through the full touch external display and normal phone centric operations can be utilized using the internal display. When the phone is in idle status, users have an option of displaying wallpaper, digital clock, analogue clock, or calendar modes through the external display. Additionally, notifications for SMS/MMS as well as alarm or schedules can be viewed directly on the large external display.
Samsung G400 is equipped with the latest imaging solutions including a 5 mega pixel camera. Many up-to-date digital camera features such as automatic face detection, image stabilizer and Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) are equipped. Users can enjoy fast Internet access through the 7.2 Mbps High Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) browser and share images or video taken with the phone. With a sub camera, users are able to enjoy video telephony under HSDPA networks.
