Korean Wristwatch Fun, LG and Samsung

I certainly do not understand what the Koreans are up to now, with major mobile electronics manufacturers LG and Samsung going head to head for having the best wrist phone. Hardware wise, LG is going to the true gold, delivering 3G technology unto your wrist. Still Samsung wants a piece of the spotlight so they are going to go first and release the S9110, the world’s first 2G wrist phone. I say 2G because no government agency is announcing who really made the first spy phone slash wristwatch. The end result is that we are all going to see two wrist phones being released soon, for no direct target market.

Now that is a consideration to take. Who is going to wear these wrist phones? I can think of a few really geeky gadget-happy friends of mine who would wear this, but even these guys would think twice before shelling out so much cash for a GSM device that is worn around the wrist (and if rumors are correct, the LG 3G wrist phone will cost over twice as much as the Samsung 2G wrist phone). The bottom line is that these novelty phones will not be getting around much. With most phone being used for web browsing, and messaging, having to bring up your wrist will not give you the same freedom and versatility as a regular mobile phone.

The real consideration here is that LG and Samsung are currently, showing off. With other manufacturers focused on other products, it seems like these Korean based companies have other priorities in mind. Perhaps they stand to earn more through this display of technological prowess than they are letting us in on. Personally, Samsung needs to spend more time developing more phones similar to their eco-friendly Blue Earth model instead of these oddball gadgets.

Samsung S9110- a watch phone on the horizon

LG GD 910 was the first watch phone introduced by the company. Coupling of a watch with a cell phone seems to be really interesting combination. With the success of LG GD 910, the opponent of LG electronics has decided to come out with yet another watch phone. Being more precise, let us give a glace at the thinnest watch phone introduced by Samsung. This tiny watch phone features range of features supported by other phones along with various other unique features.

Supporting a 1.76 inches screen gadget features a Bluetooth, personal organizer, SMS, MP3 ring tones, MMS, vibration alert, outlook Sync along with a range of other features. It is the thinnest among the watch phone, at 11.98 and looks really stylish and elegant. What makes this phone so stylish is resistant free glass and body of this high spec gadget is made from stainless steel, whereas the leather wrist belt renders it a more elegant look. Samsung S9110 has a more pleasing aesthetic sense in comparison to the other stout watch phones available in rectangular shape. The ‘liliput’ features 900/1800MHz along with having an internal memory of 40 MB as it is said that the best surprises are packed in small packages.

Talking about the battery sported by the watch phone, a 630 mAh battery abodes in this phone making it a competent phone. Nonetheless, no details have been unraveled about the stand by time as well as the talk time of Samsung S9110 by the manufacturers. Unfortunately, for the time being the Brits cannot have a slice of this. The manufacturers have decided to release this watch phone in UK market in the coming time. And the makers have completely denied unraveling the reason behind this decision, though they did point out the other products that will be launched.
