Samsung continues to offer various mobile phones from low to high end ones. This time around, they’re releasing the low-ender Samsung E1220 for China Mobile, the world’s largest mobile phone operator.

The Samsung E1220 indeed has nothing much to offer but those who are looking for a simple and easy to use phone would definitely find this appealing. This entry level handset only features 1.8-inch colored screen, WAP browser, 800mAh battery, call/SMS blacklist, fake call, SOS, and mobile tracking. This doesn’t even have a camera, and of course, Wi-Fi, 3G or GPS are also not expected on this device.

While we know that the Samsung Corby series holds probably the cheapest messaging device targeted to young mobile users, it seems like Samsung wants to go way even cheaper with an even lower-end all-touchscreen device as they announce the Samsung Champ.

Most of Samsung Corby devices have 2.8-inch of touchscreen display, which is already small; but this Samsung Champ will have an even smaller QVGA touchscreen display at only 2.4 inches. This indeed looks small, and along with this, features are as well not too much. This then includes TouchWiz Lite, 1.3-megapixel camera, Bluetooth 2.1, 3.5mm headset jack, access to Samsung applications, and a microSD card slot.

Like the Corby, the Samsung…

After a certain French Microsoft employee revealed a photo and some features of LG’s Windows Phone 7, it has again been showcased by Microsoft, demonstrating its latest build. Pocket-Lint was there to witness the event, and they said that the LG Windows Phone 7 or the LG Panther works very smoothly.

Indeed, WP7 is working smoothly on the LG Panther device, but they also said that the touchscreen should’ve been more responsive. They also seem to have tested it on the Facebook application, as it was described as “intuitive and seamless”; and Zune is also said to provide access to music and videos “quickly and clearly.”

With all the rumors regarding the…

It looks like what TmoNews has reported back in March regarding the Nokia E73 is true. Rumors back then say that this will hit T-Mobile sometime in June, and this new screenshot obtained by Engadget also points out that this will start selling on June 16 from T-Mobile.

Nicknamed as Mode, this Nokia E73 is said to “balance work and personal life through customizable Work and Life homescreens.” This actually looks a lot like the E72 in candybar form factor with a QWERTY keyboard. Features include 3G, Wi-Fi, and support for work and personal e-mail. These are the top features disclosed about the Nokia E73, and I guess this already makes…

This should then force phone manufacturers to adhere to this standard, and as seen on this LG phone, it indeed looks like it follows the said chassis. The LG Windows Phone 7 will have a large and crisp capacitive touchscreen display and sliding QWERTY keyboard; and other specs and features are…

Officially announced in South Korea a few weeks ago, the LG LU2300 now gets a moniker and it will be commercialized as the LG Optimus Q. Not that it has to do with Optimus Prime of Transformers, but this device is sure to appeal a lot just like how the movie did on its launch date.

Sadly though, unlike the Transformers movie, this LG Optimus Q LU2300 will not be made available in other parts of the world except in South Korea. Well actually, we’ve already heard of this Optimus before and it’s on the LG GT540, which has been official just a few weeks back. That said, perhaps there will…
