Samsung's F700V to be all-white on the night?
Vodafone shows off new handset colour
15th January 2008 12:25 GMT
Samsung has stayed true to its word and created a white-edged version of its F700 smartphone.
Samsung's F700V: now with white trim
When the original black-edged handset was released late last year, the Korean giant said it also planned to create several different colour versions (http://www.reghardware.co.uk/2007/09/14/sams_f700_uk/) of the handset. Until now, consumers had seen very little in the way of a colour change.
Will scratches and dirt show up?
However, a white-edged version of the handset has now appeared on Vodafone’s Spanish website (https://tienda.vodafone.es/puntos/do/catalog/item.htm?p=316071&title=Samsung%20F700V%20Blanco&tipo=contrato), as the F700V Blanco. It also has a soap-white back cover, instead of the traditional black and blue rear.
Unfortunately, the F700V’s technical specifications are unchanged from the original F700’s. It still sports a three-megapixel camera, Bluetooth, HSDPA 3G connectivity and a chatter life of about six hours.
The handset is available now on Vodafone’s Spanish website for €280 (£190/$280). A UK-specific release date or price hasn’t been named.
