Half phone, half camcorder: Samsung's SCH-B750

by Chris Ziegler posted May 10th 2007 at 11:08AM

It looks like a bit of a beast, but at least it rocks a spec sheet to match its intimidating layout. The SCH-B750 (for Samsung's domestic Korean market, naturally) is being billed as a "camcorder phone" with a swiveling display and 3 megapixel shooter that combine to mimic the way you'd hold a small digital video camera (ring any bells?). Features include QVGA internal and OLED external displays, DMB, TV out, comprehensive media support, and microSD expansion. It's not as big as it looks, either, coming in at a reasonable 99 x 51 x 16 millimeters. No word on when exactly Koreans will be able to grab this puppy, but one thing's for certain: it'll be a lot sooner than we can.

Welcome to yesterday :-)
Nokia I think owns the market for this form-factor.

oh please, nice Nokia reference.

Samsung INVENTED this form factor nearly three years ago with domestic phones in Korea. Then you have the A970 and A940 which were released for the US in 2005.
