The Wave Brought By Samsung


Samsung phones and smartphones have been a big hit ever since they were first launched. Their characteristics like affordability, desirable appearance and design, technologically advanced built-in features and multitasking capabilities have led them to be amongst the top phones in the phone industry.

One of the many Samsung phones that have been launched over the previous few years is the Samsung Wave GT S8500. Its most remarkable feature is that it was the first ever smartphone introduced by Samsung with a capacitive touch screen that worked on the Bada operating system. Bada is a portal where the developers of various applications are encouraged to do better and make the applications for the smartphone industry grow. The user interface (UI) in the Samsung Wave is Touchwhiz 3.0, which is a property of Samsung Inc. The integration of this UI in the Wave attaches important widgets like Daily Briefing, which enables the user to keep note of weather conditions, stock market rates, news about the world and other news. It also includes Feeds and Updates, which is an application that automatically sends alerts to your smartphone about current affairs and events taking place around the globe. The Wave also features Buddies, which is a social networking site that allows you to make friends, call them, text them, share pictures and audio video with them.

Very lightweight at 118g, the Samsung Wave is equipped with a 1GHz ARM CortexA8 central processing unit. The processor also has a built-in PowerVR SGX graphic tool that enables high definition video recording. Something that adds to the fun is the 3.3-inch capacitive touch screen of the phone that enables the user to capture a wider area on his phone’s screen. The screen is coated with a scratch resistant tempered glass that keeps it safe from scratches and smudges. The screen resolution of 800x480 pixels helps in getting better picture quality for captured images and videos recordings.

A 5MP camera with features that include auto focus, geo-tagging, face-smile-blink detection, image stabilization, touch focus and modes for shooting that include continuous panorama shots makes the experience of taking pictures a pleasant one. The camera has a LED flash enhancing picture quality in the absence of light, or in poor light.
The phone also features a 2GB internal storage that is expandable. The reports and reviews claim that the talk time for Wave is estimated at about 15 hours for 2G network and 7 hours for 3G network enabled phones.
Due to the absence of the Super Amoled screen in the Samsung Wave, its production was stopped and was followed by the release of the Samsung Wave II.
