Samsung Unveils WiMAX-ready P9000

07 Nov, 2006 | by Aalaap Ghag |

Samsung has just taken the wraps off the SPH-P9000, a new Mobile WiMAX and CDMA 1x EV-DO supporting phone. The phone does voice communication using CDMA 1x EV-DO and multimedia through the new Mobile WiMAX network. The device was unveiled at the Mobile WiMAX Summit 2006 held in Seoul, Korea.

Phone can be a bit of a misnomer for the SPH-P9000, which has a 1GHz Transmeta CPU, a 5-inch WVGA (854x480, 16:9) LCD display, 30GB built-in hard drive, a full fold-out QWERTY keyboard, 1.3-megapixel digital camera, Bluetooth with BT Messenger, and USB. The device runs the full Microsoft Windows XP operating system, not Windows Mobile.

�

"Our new SPH-P9000 is just one of the few Mobile WiMAX convergence devices to be introduced to the world. Samsung will expand our portfolio of mobile convergence devices, as we expect to expand our global Mobile WiMAX services globally," said Kitae Lee, President of the Telecommunication Network Business at Samsung Electronics.

The SPH-P9000 is slated for a launch around Q1 2007 in Korea. The price has not yet been announced.

We’ve already established that the Lumia 720 is Nokia’s best effort as far as Windows Phone 8 handsets go. This could soon change once the Lumia 925 hits markets, but as it stands now, the Lumia 720 offers the best blend of features and performance, wrapped in a beautiful package that’s quite affordable.
