Texting and social networking have become essential qualities in mobile phones. What else could make a handset more texting-friendly than a QWERTY keyboard. Many handhelds come with such keyboards these days. Samsung Gravity 2 Mobile Phone, also called Samsung T469 Mobile Phone is the latest entry in this category. The best part about this gadget is that it has both a QWERTY keyboard as well as a numeric keypad. This slider phone looks like any normal classic model, when closed. Slide it open and you can make use of the QWERTY keyboard for entering the input. The keys seem well spaced. There is as well a “www./ .com” key for easy address entry for web pages.
This cell phone has been particularly designed for use in the US. It will be using the T-Mobile network and will offer 3G capability only within the US. Outside the US the phone will have to rely on its quad band GSM connectivity for communication. Interfacing with AOL, Google Mail, Yahoo and more can be achieved with this phone.
Other specifications of this handset include Bluetooth capability, an MP3 player, a 2 Megapixel camera and microSD memory expansion. The screen measures 2.4" across and has a resolution of 240 x 320 pixels and can display 262k colours. A 5.5-hour talktime and a 12-day stand-by time are offered by the battery of this device.
Nokia E75 Mobile Phone has a similar construction, though it is more feature rich than the Samsung Gravity 2 Slider Mobile Phone. However, the price or other offers that come with the Samsung phone are not known yet. Since the Nokia E75 is priced at £390, the Samsung handset should surely cost lesser if it launches in the UK. On the whole this handset does look ergonomic, allowing ease of use with both the numeric as well as the QWERTY keyboard. Looks-wise too, Samsung has not done a bad job. The handset looks decent and quite sturdy too.
