The Samsung Galaxy i5500, which has already being confirmed for a European release under the name Samsung Corby Smartphone, is indeed coming to the UK – where it’ll be known as the Samsung Europa.
Please, if anyone from Samsung is reading this, sort out your phone naming system. You’ll never beat HTC unless people can tell which phone is which without first having to resort to Wikipedia. Here’s the Galaxy i5500 Europa, which Carphone Warehouse says it’s stocking exclusively online:
Carphone Warehouse says the Europa is due in July, and you’re able to register for updates on the site’s product page if you’re after an Android 2.1 phone on a bit of a budget.
Motorola’s latest flagship dual-core Android monster is a massive, original powerhouse, that’s a big improvement on previous MOTOBLUR mobiles – but still isn’t a total winner.
A slim and glamorous phone from Sony Ericsson, with the sharpest display around. It’s no powerhouse and the screen’s not the biggest out there, but we don’t mind. Because it’s cute.
LG’s first glasses-free 3D phone is a heavy, fat monster, with a clever 3D effect that works rather well. As a smartphone, though, it’s heavy and underwhelming.
A very shiny thing from Sony Ericsson, with a 3.7″ screen and Android 2.3.3 inside. But is it exciting enough to win fans in today’s spec-obsessed market? Can man live on one core alone?
INQ’s Android phone is an interesting “boutique” piece of hardware, packed with unique interface customisations that go far beyond the headline Facebook integration. We like it a lot.
