Video - Unwrapping another new GPS-enabled smartphone (Samsung SGH-i560) PDF Print E-mail

GPS is all the rage and pretty much every new smartphone on the market should come with GPS inside in my opinion.

I just got my hands on the latest from Samsung, the SGH-i560 (for the fashion conscious, trend setting blogger... is that me??), a Symbian OS 9 smartphone running S60 3 and has GPS inside among loads of other goodies... here's the unboxing. I haven't had a chance to mess around with it yet but this will give you a sneak peek. My son is also teen-testing their latest music focused device, the SGH-i450.

The Samsung SGH-i560 is the latest smartphone for the fashion conscious consumer. The i560 is perfect for trend-setting bloggers and young techie users who are the fastest adapters and leaders in enhancing their lifestyles with up-to-date information available through GPS and internet applications. It has a beautiful and sleek exterior design with a mirror coating on LCD with 16mm thickness.
