Samsung Metro 5200 Slider

Samsung has a new phone for the ever-growing Indian market – Metro 5200 Slider. No, it’s not yet another Corby phone, but a low-to-mid range slider, which specs include a 3.2-megapixel camera, thin body (10.9 mm), quad-band GSM connectivity, 2.1-inch screen, FM radio with RDS, 800mAh battery (5 hours talk time), 50 MB of internal memory that is further expandable with microSD cards — the phone ships with a 1GB card and can take cards of up to 8GB. Software wise, there’s a media player on board, office documents viewer, fake call, and other “standard for Samsung” mobile apps like calendar, alarm and so on.

Finally, the pricing – Samsung is asking Rs. 7,439 for the Metro, which is about $162…

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.
