Author: Verа Kozlova   Source: Howard Forum     Translation by: Rytchkova Anja     

In the Internet you can come across the info on a new mobile phone Samsung SCH-U710. Initially the model was meant for the American operator Verizon. The phone is tuned for messaging, has a QWERTY-keyboard and the form-factor similar to LG VX9800 and VX9900. Well, the Samsung phone will evidently compete with these phones.

Samsung already has a model with the same form-factor – the SGH-D307, but it is designed for GSM networking, and the U710 – for CDMA (EV-DO). Samsung SCH-U710 is equipped with an MP3-player, an expansion slot for microSD cards and Bluetooth interface (A2DP profile).
