 Innovative horizontal LCD
Samsung introduced its innovative horizontal LCD design last year with the Samsung V500 and is expanding this design trend for mobile phones, especially DMB phones. With the B250, users can make phone calls or send and receive text messages even while watching TV. The DMB broadcast received by the phone can also be relayed to a regular TV. The Samsung B250 phone has external buttons that allow users to play MP3 files without opening the phone. The 128-polyphonic sound chip has been built in to provide exquisite ring tones.
Samsung B250 phone - 2 megapixel camera
The Samsung B250 is also equipped with a 2 megapixel camera and the photo editing function has been upgraded. This allows the user to change facial expressions on photos such as turning a smiling face into one showing anger. Various other effects are also possible such as changing the picture frame design. The File Viewer function provides access to Microsoft Office or PDF files, and a 330,000-word dictionary is included in the software. The Samsung B250 also supports external memory of 256MB, IrDA, and mobile banking capabilities for user convenience. The phone is available in Korea at around USD 700.
