Two Samsung's bada-powered phones

Samsung is bringing two new Bada phones to Russia – Wave 2 and Wave 2 Pro. However, in the world’s largest country, these two will be sold as Wave 525 and Wave 533, respectively. Don’t ask me why that’s the case – cause I don’t know. I do, however, know that Samsung’s naming scheme is super awkward and that they have multiple names for the same phone sold in different markets.

Specs wise, both the Wave 525 and Wave 533 come with a quad-band GSM radio, 3.2-inch WQVGA touchscreen, 3-megapixel camera, Bluetooth 2.1, Wi-Fi 802.11n, A-GPS, accelerometer, ActiveSync support, Social Hub, TouchWiz 3.0, Dolfin browser 2.0, Samsung Apps, 3.5mm headphone jack, FM Radio, music player with SoundAlive, 1,200mAh battery, 80MB internal memory and a microSD memory card slot.

The two phones will hit the Russian market in September, when interested users will be able to grab them for 9,000 Rubles (about $300) for the Wave 2, and 10,000 Rubles ($330) for the Wave 2 Pro.

    I would also like to be part of this new Samsung phone. It would be the most incredible time of my life to enjoy this release first hand in a country like this.
    I hope you can fly in to be part of such a big event.
