Bell has introduced Samsung ( News - Alert) U740 to Canada; months after Verizon Wireless launched this double-flip device in United States.
Samsung U740 allows users to send text messages far more easily than making a call. That’s precisely the reason for the Bell to introduce this device in Canada where a survey found out that a majority of cell phone users like to send text messages.
Samsung U740 features QWERTY keyboard, EVDO high-speed data, media player, microSD card slot, Stereo Bluetooth , web browser, 1.3MP camera, advanced voice dialing, and two color displays.
The dual-flip phone is believed to be the most convenient mobile device for text messaging.
The mobile device is equipped with QWERTY keypad and dual screens for fast e-mail, text messaging, and Windows Live instant messaging. The Samsung U740 supports Bell Canada’s high-speed network – meaning users will be able to download all the mobile goodies quickly.
What is special with U740 is that it has a portrait mode for the phone calls and a landscape mode for writing text messages.
In a statement issued late Friday, Adel Bazerghi, Vice President of Products for Bell Mobility, said, "The Samsung u740 is a unique and stylish phone that makes texting easy thanks to its QWERTY keyboard, Double-Flip screens and fast data access."
Moreover, Samsung u740 can also take advantage of Bell's catalogue of full-track songs, SIRIUS Satellite Radio, mobile movies, TV and the Internet.
The Double-Flip is available for $149.95 with a three-year contract.
