Samsung Anycall L258

Samsung is bringing the cool-lookin’ candybar phone to Hong Kong and we guess the rest of China. We agree with the Korean giant that metallic-silver and black exterior of the Anycall L258 model, gives it “an added sense of sophistication and glamour” and somehow find this to be quite important for a device in the highly competitive mid-range market.

Anyway, the tri-band GSM/GPRS Anycall L258 comes with a 2.3″ QVGA touchscreen, 2 megapixel camera, FM radio, stereo Bluetooth support, microSD memory slot. Preinstalled software includes music player, web browser (Openwave), handwriting recognition, and an array of standard mobile phone apps like contacts, calendar, calculator, notes, etc. As for the size, the new Samsung phone measures 113x50x14.5 mm and has a weight of 97 grams. Once it hits the market, interested buyers will be able to get the Samsung Anycall L258 for HK$2,180 (around US$280).

Dusan Belic

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
