Samsung today announced the launch of Samsung Jet, that we had earlier seen unveiled at Singapore. Samsung Jet enjoys the benefits of both advanced features of a smart phone and the easy-to-use user interface of a conventional mobile phone.


The Samsung Jet supports the latest smart phone features, which include multi-task manager and Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync, with a more convenient user interface as a result of more streamlined push email for business users. Other features include -
  • a 3.1 WVGA, AMOLED touchscreen display with 16 million colors
  • 3D like UI with multiple desktops with Motion UI, Media Gate 3D and Multi-tasking manager
  • 800MHz application processor
  • 5 megapixel AF camera with Dual LEDs for a flash that features Face Detection, Smile Shot, Blink Detection and Geotagging
  • Samsung’s DNSe Sound engine and SRS WOW Sound Effects for audio with
  • a 3.5mm earphone socket
  • DivX and XviD video playback
  • GPS with A-GPS
  • Bluetooth 2.1 with A2DP, Micro USB,
  • 3G with HSDPA, EDGE/GPRS and Wi-Fi
Samsung’s latest TouchWiz 2.0 user interface integrates motion UI, smart unlock and even a customizable widget screen. Samsung’s Dolfin Internet browser enhances the mobile internet experience by allowing users to view up to five web pages simultaneously and bookmark their favourite websites as widgets on the phone’s homepage. A built in ad-blocker, multiple downloading and background downloading feature, and multi-purpose address field, further enhance the experience while Dolfin’s unique one finger zoom enables users to zoom in and out of web pages using only one hand.

Breaking away from multi-touch zoom technology which requires the use of two fingers and two hands, Samsung Jet gives consumers portability and convenience through a brand-new concept – ‘one finger zoom’, which enables one hand operation to zoom in and out. One finger zoom can be used not only for the Internet browser, but also for Photo browser and file viewer to see TXT, PDF and PPT files in four times bigger size – all just with one finger tip while you’re on the move.

The Samsung Jet is priced at Rs. 24,150.
