Samsung SGH-i450 Live Pics

If you’re not familiar with it, the Samsung SGH-i450, it was announced back in October 2007, but is one of a handful of  S60-powered Samsung devices.  I realize this is an older handset, but I recently had a chance to play with it, and I walked away very impressed.

Samsung SGH-i450Unfortunately only a tri-band GSM (900/1800/1900MHz) device, the SGH-i450 does feature WCDMA (2100MHz) with HSDPA for high-speed data. S60 v3 Feature Pack 1 is on board, paired with a standard 2.4″ QVGA display. The i450 is a hardcore music device, with a microSD card slot for plenty of storage expansion, standard 3.5mm audio port, and Bluetooth 2.0 with A2DP support for stereo headsets.

There is a 2 megapixel camera located on the back of the handset, with a second front-facing VGA camera for video calling (where supported). Like the popular N95, the SGH-i450 is a dual slider, though instead of dedicated music playback keys, the dual-slide reveals a large scrolling arc-wheel and Bang & Olufsen speaker.

I did not have much time to play, but I was extremely pleased with the overall in-hand feel of the Samsung SGH-i450, and found the music playback to be extremely loud. The handset is currently available for around $300 on Ebay, though I wasn’t able to find it in stock at other online retailers. AllAboutSymbian.com has already put together a more in-depth review.
