Samsung S5600 launched exclusively with Orange

on Jun 18, 2009

London, UK, 18th June, 2009 - SAMSUNG Mobile announced today that Orange is the first UK network to launch the Samsung S5600. Available immediately, the new handset is perfect for social networkers on the move and available in black, pink and white for the latest in touchscreen innovation.

"The Samsung S5600 offers a truly stylish design and an intuitive user interface for the most image conscious mobile users." said Mark Mitchinson, Vice President of SAMSUNG Mobile UK and Ireland. "For social networking enthusiasts the S5600's widget and full internet browsing capabilities mean they will never miss out on a status update or the latest photos ever again."

Packed with multimedia features
The Samsung S5600 is perfect for keeping in touch on the move, particularly with the latest social networking trends and comes with Orange Windows Live embedded for easy access. Mobile widgets can be dragged and placed on the screen for one-click access to favourite applications. Fast internet browsing with an accelerometer sensor for auto screen rotation gives users an exciting mobile internet experience. The 2.8" QVGA full touch screen really helps the user to design, customise and personalise the way they use their phone.

The Samsung S5600 also includes a 3.2MP camera with the latest digital camera features such as smile shot, so users can easily take pictures and upload them to show friends and family with the Orange photography service. The phone also features music recognition using Shazam's 'Find Music', so users can find any song they want to listen to wherever they are and purchase it through the Orange Music Store.

Keeping it all in one place
The handset's generous memory (80MB and Micro SD slot up to 8GB) ensures ample storage space for multimedia content, meaning users can take their favourite pictures, videos and music with them everywhere.

The Samsung S5600 is available immediately for free from Orange on a £20 per month, 24 month contact, or for £159.50 on Orange pay as you go.
