Verizon's Samsung i770 in production trim?

by Chris Ziegler, posted Jun 10th 2008 at 2:37PM

Last time we saw the i770, it was looking pretty raw -- but things move quickly in this crazy industry we're all following so closely, and it seems like Samsung might be settling on a final production look for its latest WinMo gift to Verizon (with more than just a little input from the latter, no doubt). We've been slipped this grainy picture of a device that our contact believes to be a more recent version of the i770, though he's not positive. It certainly looks the part, and the red shell tells us that Verizon's probably going to put at least a half-hearted effort into playing up the personal sales of this one in the same vein as AT&T's BlackJack II. It's no VX9700 in the looks department, but outside of the X1 and a couple HTCs, what Windows Mobile device is?

Looks meh. They should make it more like the i780.

I will agree with that, but add the i900 interface and a if it already isn't the screen should be 2.8in. Also add a real gps chip to it and 256mb min of free space while keeping the same price as the i760 or even a small increase.

Looks to be smaller than the older models replacing it.

The i770 looks like shit. I want my full slider keyboard not some compact thumb torture device.

I don't like the screen size. Same reason why I didn't want a windows mobile standard (smartphone) vs the pro (pocket pc).

I love my i760 keypad on the front. I'll never upgrade to this phone regardless if it is a world phone or not!
