In this world filled with hifi technological phones, it is indeed difficult to find a phone, that offers all essentials, while also keeping things simple. Samsung do have a heart for those people too, who do not require hard-core technology laden cell phones. Hence they have come out with the
Samsung C3060R Mobile Phone which, frankly speaking, looks like one of those simple yet efficient Nokia hand-sets.
As mentioned earlier, this handheld does not have complicated technological wealth. However, it does offer some very useful features. The font of the text on the screen is large and comfortable to view. People with impaired vision can find this characteristic really helpful. The menu is simple with few easy to understand options. There is plenty of online help available as well. Even the keypad has large numbers and letters, making it easy to read without straining the eye. An excellent gift for your grandparents indeed!
A special red button on the side of the phone, called SOS displays 5 emergency contact numbers for quick dialing. When this button is kept pressed for a longer time, the first number in this emergency list gets dialed. The 2.2" screen with a resolution of 176 x 220 pixels, as mentioned earlier displays text with great legibility.
This candy-bar phone has a built in FM receiver as well. A 1.3 Megapixel camera has also been integrated into this device. A WAP browser comes pre-loaded in this cell phone too. The
Samsung C3060R Candybar Phone is expecting a Russian release in June 2009 for a price of 6000 rubles. That would be about £123. Does seem a little expensive for this handset. However, there is no information about the release of this phone in other markets.
