Mobile Review has previewed a prototype of the Samsung i300 Smartphone. Expected to be launched in October, the i300 includes a new wheel control, integrated 3GB hard drive, and a QVGA screen. The phone is expected to sell for $500 - $700.
The prototype that was used for this review lacked the built-in hard drive but Mobile Review does a good job of providing a complete review of the phone.
"Now it's too early to make final conclusions, let's postpone them till the complete review. But we can surely stress the main points. Samsung i300 has no rivals in the control elements, which is an advantage. That is for the first time we see a hard drive in a smartphone. The screen resolution forms 320x240 pixels that is also an advantage, tough the screen size is not optimal at all. Still battery life, final camera quality and performance remain unknown."
