Samsung U608 for Hong Kong
Samsung has announced that a variant of its U600, the U608, is going on sale in Hong Kong under the company's Anycall brand. Like its predecessor, the new phone has Bluetooth 2.0 and a 3.2-megapixel camera, and can play MP3, WMA and AAC/eAAC+ music files. Other features include an FM radio and a microSD slot. In fact the phone is essentially unchanged, though it will be available in blue, silver and copper colors. An oddity in Samsung's specifications is that while quad-band GSM is mentioned, there is no reference to any sort of broadband support, even the U600's EDGE. The 608 is being priced at $3,480 HKD ($445 US). [via Unwired View]
