Samsung F700 the ''Ueber'' LG Prada Phone?
Feb 10 2007, 4:00am CST | by Luigi Lugmayr
Samsung announced the Ultra Smart F700 Touch screen mobile phone with slide-out QWERTY keyboard this week. Taking a quiet minute today admiring the hi-res photos Samsung published of the F700, it came to me that the User interface is similar to the LG Prada phone (see photo).
It is really a strange coincident that Samsung also goes with black background and simple white icons for the application menu on the F700. The LG Prada phone has the same look.
Feature-wise the Samsung F700 leaves the LG Prada phone in the dust with HSDPA, 5MP Camera, Slide-out QUERTY keyboard etc.
The LG Prada measures 115x61x11.6mm. The Samsung Ultra Smart F700 measures 104 x 50 x 16.4mm making it only slightly bigger (~4cm3).
More details of the F700 are to be expected early next week, when Samsung shows the Ultra Smart at the 3GSM show in Barcelona.
See 3 hi-res screen-shots of the Samsung F700 in this gallery.
The Apple iPhone is still able to stand out with its finger tricks and colorful icons, but Apple needs to add 3G at least when it comes out in Europe, else the Samsung F700 is the way to go.
