Smartphones are all the rage at present. As contracts come to an end, increasing numbers of people are taking advantage of the expiry of their current contract to upgrade their existing mobile phone to one of the new generation of smartphones that are currently available on the market.
Samsung UK has produced two new examples of the smartphone in recent times, each aimed at a different section of the UK smartphone market. The Samsung Wave, also known as the Samsung S8500, is an entry level phone, ideally suited to individuals who are looking at buying their first smartphone.
Its 3.3 in touch screen display is based on super AMOLED technology, meaning the screen is brighter and less reflective than any other display currently available. This provides top notch picture quality, with no motion blur and full HD compatibility.
The Samsung Wave is also well supported by hundreds of apps, making using the phone as individual as the person using it and with fantastic compatibility with a range of devices, transferring your data and images from your Wave to a computer or HDTV is simple. Combine this with fantastic internet capabilities and a powerful 1GHz processor and the Samsung Wave quickly becomes one of the best entry level smartphones currently available.
For those seeking something a little more refined, with more features, then the Samsung Galaxy S smartphone is worthy of serious consideration. The Galaxy S, also known as the Samsung i9000, also features a super AMOLED technology screen, only this is 4.0 in wide and provides stunning quality.
Connecting the Galaxy S to a computer could not be easier using the built-in Wireless Tethering technology that Samsung has developed. Video is recorded in HD and can be played via your HDTV, using the smartphone as a remote control!
The Samsung Galaxy S also comes with superb connectivity available to a whole host of sources. Samsung’s Around Me real time digital information package is a stunning example of how smartphones can be used in the real world, allowing access to information while on the move. Work need not take a back seat with the Galaxy S either, as with the included version of ThinkFree Office Mobile, you can view or even edit text within Word, Excel or Powerpoint documents.
In the car, once the Samsung Galaxy S has been slotted into its car cradle, it becomes a powerful satellite navigation tool, powered by the excellence of Google Maps, incorporating three views to suit the demands of any driver. The Galaxy is also fully compatible with many major social networking sites and updating them from the phone is simple.
Even the humble text message has been given a fresh new look with the Swype method of formulating a text message. This brand new, innovative way of texting allows the user to text their friends more quickly and efficiently than using traditional text messaging!
If you are looking for a perfect entry level smartphone, then the Samsung Wave is an ideal choice, but for something a little more special, with a host of brand new features and a style all of its own, more experienced smartphone users should opt for the Samsung Galaxy S.
