Samsung launch the Genio Slide

New Samsung Slide

The South Korean manufacturer has launched a slide version of their Genio handset which sits comfortably within their low cost youth portfolio.

The new device boasts a 2.8” touch screen with a slide out 4 row QWERTY keyboard, the device will even come preloaded with BBC iPlayer and links to the popular social networking handsets like Facebook and Twitter. The handset also has a 3 megapixel camera, WiFi, HSDPA, GPS and a welcomed 3.5mm audio jack.

For a phone that is free on Vodafone tariffs from £15 per month it has some pretty good connectivity features. The Genio is currently exclusive with Vodafone and will be made available to other retailers and operators after the first month of launch.
