Symbian Review

Samsung has announced its new SGH-L870 at the S60 Summit in Barcelona, Spain.

The super-thin slider is powered by S60 3rd Edition Feature Pack 2 running on top of Symbian v9.3.

The Samsung L870 sports a 3 megapixel camera and microSD card slot, so it’s ready to capture the action. The handset also features a built-in FM radio, an advanced music player, and Bluetooth 2.0 with A2DP support for stereo headsets.

This sliding smartphone supports tri-band GSM (900/1800/1900MHz) and WCDMA (2100MHz) to stay connected, and the 2.4″ QVGA display should be easy on the eyes. This handset is planned to be available in Europe in August 2008, with other regions following soon. Pricing information is not yet available.
