Samsung SGH-i570
Another Symbian based smartphone leaked

Another day another Samsung’s Symbian leaked, well, as I have said yesterday, there is no doubt that folks at Samsung are pretty busy and extremely productive nowadays.

Yesterday I found interesting GPS enabled Samsung phone, named as i570 that will be based on the Symbian OS and now there is another one, i550 that will also run Symbian OS, if we can believe to rumors of course.

Will the i550 looks extremely ugly in my personal opinion, the just leaked i570 is the very similar to few months ago released i400 and it going to be another Samsung attempt to compete to huge Nokia S60 portfolio.

It seems that they have finally release that it impossible to beat Nokia by the features and functionality so they’ll try with producing the stylish, compact and attractive S60 phones with high quality casing, something that Nokia still has to learn how to do unfortunately.

This Symbian powered handset with its 92×60x16mm measurement is trendy and pretty slim but still wide enough to carry full QWERTY keyboard. Apparently it will boast wi-fi, HSDPA, EDGE and Bluetooth with 160MB internal memory plus a microSD card slot.

The rest of the features aren’t that attractive, it features 2 mpx cam for example which is pretty outdated nowadays.

Anyway, as you may have already know e got lot of the S60 based phones from Samsung, phones like D-720, SGH-Z600, SGH-i520, stylish SGH-i400 and finally i550 but unfortunately its impossible to find these phones in shops and I truly hope that this one will actually hit the markets finally. that was announced at S60 summit in Madrid few months ago.
