About Samsung Corby

Sensuous Design

The Samsung Corby aims to stand out from the crowd with its pop-style contours and curved edge design. The handset comes with a selection of colored yellow, white, orange and pink back covers. Each Samsung Corby also comes with two additional back covers (also called ‘Fashion Jackets’) – a unique pattern design cover and a standard black cover inside the package. These interchangeable back covers ensure that Samsung Corby users can quickly adapt their mobiles to reflect their personal style. A wider variety of colored covers and designs will be made available in the future. This focus on cutting-edge design extends to the user interface through a Cartoon UI (user interface), a highly stylised graphical menu and wallpaper that adapts according to handset functionality.

Advanced Communicator

A wealth of communication options is available to Samsung Corby owners. Users can update their current status and access friends’ updates and live feeds via Facebook, MySpace and Twitter through a simple Pop-up SNS (Social Networking Service) notification feature. The handset also supports various community sites by integrating leading user-generated content sites such as YouTube, Flickr, Picasa and Photobucket and other popular SNS sites directly into the handsets user interface. Users can upload photos and videos to these sites through this Communities solution.

Trendy Full Touch

The Samsung Corby incorporates Samsung’s new Touchwiz UI and haptic feedback system making touch screen operations simple and easy to use. The handset offers haptic feedback when users make a selection on the touch screen and through the device’s widget system. Users can further customise the handset and interface with useful applications and widgets that move with drag-and-drop ease. Samsung Corby owners will also have access to a substantial library of additional applications through the Samsung online widgets store. The handset also supports “one finger zoom” and “smart unlock,” Samsung’s own unique technologies that are incorporated in most of the company’s premium full touch devices such as the Samsung Jet. “One finger zoom” enables consumers to zoom in and out with one finger while “Smart unlock” is a feature which enables users to unlock the phone and use the menu by drawing a letter on the screen.
