Yesterday, armed with the video camera, I went to the launch of the Samsung Blush phone. If you're read our previous posts about it you'll know it comes packaged up with a selection of Benefit goodies, which is why the launch took place in a beauty mecca where we were treated to eyebrow waxes and mini-makeovers whilst learning about the phone. It's definitely one for the girlie fashion fans among us, and should be thought of as a music device with all the benefits of a mobile phone, rather than the other way around. Here's a little vid of the phone in action (as well as a peek at those beauty goodies). See after the jump for a bit more on the actual spec.
The pink blush x830 is up there with other fashion phones, but it's obvously not going to give your latest swish HSDPA number a run for its money. The music player is the big plus, very iPod like with a click wheel for navigation and easy to use menus. There's also an 'offline' mode that'll turn off all phone functions so you can use it purely as a music player on planes and other non-phone-friendly areas. Internal memory is 1gb, sadly there's no card slot to increase that, but when you think it already has double the memory of an iPod shuffle, it'll still hold a good number of songs.
The camera is a respectable 1.3 megapixels with an automatic flash, and the phone itself is lipstick sized, bright pink and easy to slip into your handbag. The new layout of the number keys (in two rows instead of three) will probably drive frequent texters mad, but those buying a phone like this are likely to be after style over function, so no doubt they'll cope!
