Samsung is out with a new mid-range handset for its domestic market – W690. The newly launched clamshell is offered through SK Telecom, which will sell it in two colors, black and white.
What sets the W690 apart is the 2.6-inch QVGA (240×320 pixels) AMOLED screen that should reportedly make the device run longer even with a 800mAh battery. Other specs include 3G (HSDPA) support, 1.5-inch 128×128 pixels OLED external display, music player, Bluetooth, 2 megapixel camera, and pretty large keys that promise ease of use.
And that’s about all we can say about it. In a nutshell, it’s a decent phone and I guess we’ll see Samsung pushing it outside South Korea in the near future. Stay tuned…

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.
