It was about a month ago that Samsung launched Nori SHW-A220 mobile phone in S Korea, yet the company seems to continue the Nori lineup and has introduced new Nori upgrade especially for the Asian market, the Samsung Nori F (SHW-A200) mobile phone.
The Samsung Nori F comes in 4 eye candy colors to seduce young users including marine blue, light blue, red and orange. The new Nori F is a clamshell model (Nori F means Nori Folder) and features customizable LED illumination (the front lid) and UI. The pretty design of the Nori F aka SHW-A200 woos with a 2.8 WQVGA screen (240×400 pixels), a 3 megapixel camera and 1.3 megapixel front facing camera for video calling. The phone runs on an 880 mAh battery.
The Nori F SHW-A200 dumb phone also features 3G connectivity, T-DMB compatibility with games and apps downloadable, Bluetooth (2.1 version with the support for A2DP) and Gyro sensor. The Nori F also features MicroSD slot to support expand memory up to 16GB.
With eye catchy colors this is no geek phone but well a good looking gadget; Samsung wishes the same, woo the young brigade by design and looks of the clamshell. The new Samsung Nori F will be available at 500,000 wons in Korea which will be approximately $426.
What are the chances of people living outside of Korea being able to get the phone? Not necessarily under any carrier but as unlocked would it even work in Europe or the USA?
