Samsung’s going after the Asian cash-cow that is the Indian wireless market by releasing the CDMA Samsung Max as an open-market mobile phone offering. Hyundai Kim, Vice President and Head of the CDMA Division at Samsung Telecommunications India Pvt. Ltd., said, “We expect to fuel the growth of the Indian CDMA industry through the launch Samsung Max in the open market. Fully feature loaded Samsung Max is launched to serve the Multimedia needs of the CDMA consumer. The availability of CDMA phones in the open market will provide Indian consumers freedom to choose network operator’s of their choice.”
The Samsung Max will be bringing a 1.3 megapixel camera, Bluetooth, R-UIM card support, expandable memory, FM radio, voice recorder, MP3 player, and a 1.9-inch display to Tata Indicom and Reliance Mobile subscribers. Customers will be able to choose either CDMA carrier as their wireless provider – such is the beauty of an open-market phone.
Indians in Delhi and Mumbai can get their hands on the Samsung Max for Rs. 7,500, with several other large cities expected to get the handset by December 2007.

I bought this phone today, mp3, camera is good, but you can only watch video that this mobile captures. The software also have a problem as the keypad tones do not changed even after they are changed (as shown). The PC software also shows that the mobile supports 3gp, but it doesnt run. Samsung people will have to do something about this else they would be cheating people. Only go for this phone if you do not need video.
