When personal digital assistants (PDA) made their way into the modern age, we thought computers couldn’t get any more portable. We were so glad that we could surf the internet and do our work wirelessly, just by using our PDA’s. But with the rapidly changing time, the power of computers increased in strength, while their bodies shrank in size. Meet the Samsung Upstage M620. It’s not just a phone, a PDA, and a computer, but also a uniquely smart music player.
This Upstage is such an amazing combination of many machines, you’d wonder how they fitted it in one handheld device. The mobile phone is capable of Evolution Data Optimized (EVDO) technology, like many 3G phones today. EVDO allows users to get online and download at high speed using their mobile phones. With the Upstage M620’s convenient web browser and 2.1 inch LCD screen, subscribers can watch live TV broadcasts, movie clips, music videos, and tune in to the news.
The mobile phone also comes with a 1.3 mega pixel digital camera which can zoom up to 5x. Pictures taken can be in four resolutions, from as large as 1280 x 160 pixels or as low as 176 x 220, depending on the user’s preference. The camera can take still photos in night mode, and can operate on a five second self-timer. There are also adjustments for brightness and contrast, and a photo editing software is included. The Upstage supports PictBridge, so photos can be printed immediately without cable or card transfer.
