Samsung Corby S3650 gets previewed
By Ilinca Nita on 01 Sep 09Less than 24 hours after its official announcement, the Samsung Corby S3650 got previewed in Russia by Eldar from Mobile-review.
First of all – as you may already know – the Samsung Corby is a budget touchscreen phone targeted at young mobile users. Knowing this, you shouldn’t be surprised to find out that its main features include a 2.8 inch QVGA display, Bluetooth 2.1, MP3 player, stereo FM radio, 2MP camera, and GSM/EDGE connectivity only.
Overall, Corby’s performance is satisfying: the widget-ready UI works well, the camera interface is user-friendly, the NetFront 3.5 web browser is fast enough and so on.
Some minuses: the display is “extremely washed out” in direct sunlight, and there’s no virtual QWERTY keyboard.
Here’s the Corby S3650 next to the Samsung Star S5230 (sold in more than 5 million units until now):

Samsung Corby S3650 will be available in Europe starting this month, for only €150 ($215) – that’s why it will probably be a best-seller, although there are other touchscreen phones priced similarly (like Nokia 5230 and LG Cookie).
