New Samsung Steel HSDPA Handset

Samsungs has announced the release of its new Steel HSDPA Handset available through Vodafone on early June. This will be the first worldwide generation of HSDPA high-speed 3G mobile technology aimed to provide end-users with broadband Internet access at a similar transfer rate than traditional home’s ADSL/Broadband but directly to a mobile handheld without needing of a router or anything else.   HSDPA stands for High Speed Downlink Packet Access, a 3G technology resulting of the evolution of UMTS standard that along with HSUPA (High Speed Uplink Packet Access (HSUPA) enables higher data transfer speed up to 14.4 Mbps depending on the 3GPP release.   The new Samsung handset with HSDPA technology is simply called “Samsung Steel,” a name matching perfectly with its exterior look.   Samsung Steel is designed with the style-conscious user in mind, a flat slider phone that comes with a a 2.2 inches screen that supports 262k-color display, a 3-megapixel camera with auto-focus and video capture. Other remarkable features on this handset include a DAB digital radio, a document viewer, conference calling and video calling.

Of course, Samsung Steel has Bluetooth connectivity and a microSD card slot supporting up to 8GB expandable memory, but it will be first released in the UK exclusively for Vodafone’s subscribers. Actually, the HSDPA/3GPP network mostly available across the United Kingdom and Europe but 3G technology is being quickly adopted as mobile standard around the world.

Turbo Internet browsing and high speed image and video sharing are something not seen before on any other handset, except for those with HSDPA technology which are being developed by Nokia, LG and Motorola, a still-to-compare feature.

Mark Mitchinson, Vice President of Samsung Mobile UK and Ireland commented, “With the Samsung Steel we wanted to create a multimedia handset with a timeless appeal and premium feel.” In fact, the sleek polished metallic finish and minimalist front panel serve the company’s purpose providing this mobile handset with a distinctive appeal.   Despite new Samsung Steel has only 30MB internal memory, the handset is fully multimedia compatible and a MicroSD card can boost memory similarly to Microsoft’s Vista memory management when it comes to computers. Thanks to its HSDPA technology, Samsung Steel’s web browser is aimed to provide your with a better online experience if compared with other mobile devices.

Samsung’s users may find the Steel closer to a previously release mobile handset, Samsung Soul, nonetheless the upcoming devices lack of the interactive Window and hiding away the navigation buttons of its predecessor. “Samsung Steel’s elegant exterior and user friendly features will appeal to a broad range of mobile users making the handset the next must-have accessory,” said Mark Mitchinson about this mobile expressly developed for Vodafone.

Chris Edwards, Head of Devices for Vodafone UK declared “We are incredibly excited that we will be offering our customers another great value exclusive from Samsung. We think it will really appeal to those customers who want to access the Internet, stay in touch with email or update their favourite social network site while on the go. Above all we are pleased to be continuing our promise to range new and exciting handsets that deliver a great customer experience.”
