Beyonce’s Samsung Phone Gets New Name - Upstage
Posted by Will on Monday, March 26th, 2007 at 4:38 pm under Announcements, Devices, Samsung, Sprint
Not to be, uh, upstaged, by all the other fancy phone monikers out there, Samsung set out to find a unique and catchy name for their new “ultra music” music phone. Already having a world-renowned star signed on to help market the phone, Sammy needed an appropriately flashy name (the “Beyonce Phone” just didn’t roll off the tongue). Now dubbed the Samsung Upstage, the former ultra music / F300 / M620 music-oriented mobile phone still rocks the uber-cool dual screen music-phone design that we mentioned a little while ago.
The Upstage hits the expected lower price point of $150 (after instant
savings from Sprint), putting this music phone in the lower-end pricing segment. But don’t let the low price fool you, it still packs a punch with a 2 megapixel camera as well as EVDO high speed data goodness. Combined with the oh-so-sweet 9.5 mm thick body, FM radio, and microSD expansion slot, you really can’t get more bang for the buck. So, it seems the Upstage will be within reach of those with slightly more modest bank accounts than Beyonce.

I got beyonce fone but , its another copy cat just like every other fone, but i have to say its an alright fonejust the price is to hight if you want one just buy thr samsung sph-m620 upstage its the same thing and cost much less…..,you can’t really do that much with the fonejust really just basic i would say there is alot more cheaper fones out there is better.and here us another thing to think about before rushing out to buy it how the iphone copy the sidekick 3 ,and how sidekick copy the wing now how beyonce copy Samsung SPH-m620 UpStage it alot of bullshit, why can’t a phone copmany come out with one that they ain’t copying no one else just think about it cause they are just trying to take our fricken money peace…. hawaii
