An ultra-lightweight music phone : Samsung M3510 (GT-M3510)

An ultra-lightweight music phone, the Samsung M3510 is aimed at those people who value multimedia playback over other features. The Samsung M3510 weighs only 68 grams and is a shade less than 10mm thick. The 800 mAh battery can provide up to 5 hours of talktime, 10 days standby time or 15 hours of music playback. It’s a pretty simple tri-band GSM device with GPRS and EDGE data, a 2″ 240 x 320 pixel display and a 2 megapixel camera, but Samsung have put most of the effort into music. In addition to an MP3 / AAC / WMA compatible media player, the Samsung M3510 also features something called the “BEAT player”, “Find Music by Shazam” and Samsung’s Digital Natural Sound engine (DNSe), plus an automatic audio equaliser and digital rights management support. Usefully, the Samsung M3510 comes with a 3.5mm audio socket and also some dedicated media keys. It could make an ideal Christmas present if bought with a prepay SIM. Samsung haven’t given any details on the M3510’s release date or pricing yet, but we should imagine that it will be out in the next month or so.
