Posted in Personal Tech, 8th May 2006 14:34 GMT
Samsung today unveiled what it claims is the thinnest mobile phone yet made and said it pans plans to ship the skinny device in China and Europe later this month. At 6.9mm, the phone is even skinnier than Motorola's 11.5mm SLVR.
The SGH-X820 weighs a mere 66g and packs in Bluetooth and a two-megapixel camera. Samsung didn't provide much else by way of specification beyond noting that the handset is a GSM device.
Samsung didn't indicate how much the handset will cost European consumers, but the Korea Times described the price as "hefty". ®
