Fans of Samsung cell phones are waiting with baited bait for the release of the latest mobile from the stables of Samsung. If pre-release looks are anything to go by, then the Samsung SGH-i740 seems to be a stunner. This mobile is raising the bar ever so high and taking standards to newer heights. You will love the looks of this beauty GSM Quad band phone that is capable of global roaming. Weighing a tad high at 126 grams, this 109 x 59 x 14 mm phone runs on a Li-Ion 1500 mAh battery with talktime up to 11 hours and stand by time up to 26 days (it would be a shame to write that in hours). The 65,536 colors TFT display has a resolution of 240 x 320 pixels and the touchscreen had got handwriting recognition capabilities… Wow!

When other phones are pushing up the camera resolution to 5 megapixels and above, Samsung disappoints on this one with just 3 megapixels. The video features auto focus, ISO control, digital zoom, multi shot capabilities and panorama view. A flash is included for shooting in dim light. The phone comes inbuilt with 100 MB memory, more than sufficient for most tasks and for additional storage there is a microSD memory slot. This beauty runs on Windows Mobile Professional 6.1. An USB 2.0 and stereo Bluetooth (2.0) are used for connecting with other devices.
