Samsung S3850 Corby II goes on sale

Samsung reminded us that there is more than smartphones out there. The company quietly released its Corby II feature phone this week in Europe. The phone is a successor to the popular Corby handset and offers some minor improvements on an already successful package.

The retail price of the Corby II will be €189. For this amount of money you will get, well, not much. The screen is 3.2" capacitive TFT with QVGA resolution (240 x 320 pixels). There is 26MB of internal storage and a microSD card slot. Photos can be taken with a fixed-focus 2MP camera.

The device runs on the latest TouchWiz UI with multitasking capabilities. Connectivity is covered with Wi-Fi b/g/n, Bluetooth 3.0 (A2DP), standard microUSB port, and a 3.5mm audio jack.

Amazon.de currently has the Corby II listed at €135. You should keep in mind that for the same price, you can find a lower-end Android or Symbian device. Both the LG GT540 Optimus and the Sony Ericsson X8 run for about the same price point.
