Samsung unveils two low-end candybars – E1410 and E1117

Samsung is out with two new low-end candybar-shaped handsets – E1410 and E1117. Their low-end nature won’t impress many, but don’t forget these will probably sell in emerging markets or will be offer to first-time mobile phone buyers for free on a contract. Let’s briefly go through each one of them, shall we.

• Samsung E1410 is a dual-band (900/1800 MHz) GSM/GPRS phone, sporting a 1.63-inch 128×128 pixels CSTN display, 4MB of internal memory and large battery (1000 mAh), which should reportedly allow the device to work up to 11.5 hours in talk and up to 546 hours in standby mode. Size wise, it measures 108×46x15.3 mm.
• Then there’s Samsung E1117, which comes with the same-kind-of screen and battery, but less internal memory (900 Kb) and with a built-in FM receiver. As for the size, the E1117 measures 106.4×45x15.4 mm and has a weight of 79 grams.

Interestingly enough, both devices lack a camera and music playback software. Samsung hasn’t provided any details about the pricing nor availability. Not that we care much, actually.
