is this a J200 in disguise?
On 6 Jun 11:49 atillathehunch wrote
the plastic on the face of the phone around the joystick and keypad looks especially cheap and tacky, a 262k screen is a moronic idea, and it appears to be a k700 (loudspeaker design) meets an old style nokia (just look at the blocky, ugly, old keypad)--basically an SE copy with input from a designer who appears to be living in the stone age!
On 6 Jun 07:11 SeF wrote
Samsung call this attractive? it's a copy of 3110 classic design imho, the camera lens frame cover looks like 6630's module, and the loudspeaker speaker design copies from K700's design. and it was designed by a famous designer, what a shame

right for a leading designer it's design is a straight copy of a nokia 6030

i swear when i clicked on the link i thought it was an SE candybar phone. Now that i see it magnified 4 times, it looks even more like an SE phone with Samsung stamped on it. But i likes the buttons a lots. Reminds me of a bumpy startac numberpad for some reason

looks like the front end of a huge microphone

I agree. it reminds me on W810i! Lack of camera protection is a bad move!

DAMED!! IT'S A SPIONASE IN THE MOBILEPHONE...SAMSUNG? WHY OUR COPY SONYERICSSON CAMEPHONE?
On 4 Jun 18:57 sesukaku wrote
lol.... it is so contradicting how they say it is attractive, yet when i first look at the design it resembles sony ericsson J-series? Although when i look at the back part i started to think oh.. its not too bad, the first thing that makes me laugh is the first comment on this page: "very horrible"... i guess i must admit that this design is not that original, it takes a lot of the ideas from sony ericsson.

I hope the phone just WORKs

rather convenient design for a phone, that stands for a phone, not a PDA. Like the keyboard layout a lot. Need to check to firmware, battery life and quality.

why are all you guys sony ericssoncentric!!!? sorry to break the news to you all but, it's probably assembled in the same factory as se products! i.e. there is very little difference!!!

Minimalist is right - minimal style, and minimal originality! Seriously, this is just bland - if it was released by anyone else without the designer label (and countless similar designs have been) nobody would look twice at it. We're all trying to read something special into this because it comes in a nice box with someone's name on the side, but actually it's just a really, really average looking phone with nothing much to recommend it at all.

J200's design is better.

It is a quite attractive minimalist design in fact. I liked it.

Whats so special design about this phone. Anyone can do it except for samsung who has learnt only to bring up slider phones rather than conventional ones. And at last they got a help frm a cheap cowward

a monkey can design way better phone than this.

Nope, think they've lost the plot on this one - the emperor's not wearing any clothes! I mean it's a functional enough design, and it looks okay, but absolutely nothing special - certainly not something I'd expect anyone to be signing their name to.
