Samsung’s having quite the week, aren’t they? The most recent Sammy handset to show its face is this bad boy right here. This phone has already been announced by Vodafone, but had yet to show its face by way of Samsung themselves. The Samsung SGH-i640 is an upgraded version of the SGH-i620. It sports an impressive feature set, including Wi-Fi, GPS, Windows Mobile 6 Standard, UMTS/HSDPA, 2 megapixel camera, and much more. The i640, much like it’s younger brother, features an innovative slide-out QWERTY keyboard that unveils Samsung’s trademark too-small keys at the flick of a finger. Seriously, guys, is it too much to ask for a bit of a keyboard redesign and having the keyboard register fast key presses? Key concerns aside, this looks to be a worthy successor to the ailing Samsung i620. The only problem, of course, is that it’s Europe only right now. Sorry guys.
Samsung SGH-i640 coming soon
