New Feature Phones 2Day: Samsung Corby with Touchwiz, Apps and Quirky Cartoon UI

As CES Samsung is also unveiling the Samsung Corby.  The Samsung Corby runs on the Samsung's
Touchwiz user interface and haptic feedback system, which gives users
the ability to customize their Corby with applications and widgets. It has a 2 megapixel camera, colorful removable covers and a Cartoon UI. It has an FM radio and will work with removable microSD card up to 8 Gigabytes.

We think the Cartoon UI is more like a theme, the Samsung website says, "Cartoon UI theme adds quirkiness to your mobile."

The
Samsung Corby features a substantial library of additional applications by
providing access to Samsung's online widgets store.

The "one finger
zoom" on the Corby lets users zoom in-and-out with one finger while the
"smart unlock" feature allows users to unlock the phone easily by
drawing a letter on the screen.

Corby users can instantly update their
current status and access their friend's updates and live feeds via
Facebook, MySpace and Twitter through a simple Pop-up SNS (Social
Networking Service) notification feature.

The Samsung Corby also supports
various community sites by integrating leading user-generated content
sites such as YouTube, Flickr, Picasa and Photobucket and other popular
SNS sites. Photos and videos can be uploaded easily to these sites by
using the Corby's communities solution.

The Corby comes with a selection
of colored back covers in yellow, white, orange, pink and two additional
back covers (called 'Fashion Jackets'), which feature a unique pattern
design cover and a standard black cover. The interchangeable back
covers let users change the style of their handset to reflect their
personal style.
The
Find Music feature records a few seconds of the song and sends it to a
server that identifies the track, artist, album and genre for you.
