I remember someone posting a comment here the other day about how Apple copied SE with the shake control feature in their iPod Nano... Well Samsung just announced a few music phones with SE Walkman phone copying features. From GSMArena:
The Samsung M3200 Beat s sports a number of music-oriented features beside the already mentioned dedicated music keys [...] a music player Shake control thanks to the built-in acccelerometer.
Samsung's alternative to Shake control is called Motion Play. It's a unique feature for the Samsung portfolio and a similar control has been implemented only in several Sony Ericsson Walkman phones. It allows you to play or pause music with a tap on the phone, mute the music by turning the phone face down, or change tracks by shaking it.
Again, much like the Walkmans, the Samsung Beat s offers mood-based track sorting so you can always tune your track to your current mood.
[...] And finally, in a last competing move against Walkmans, Samsung have equipped their handsets with a music recognition feature (like TrackID). It's the Shazam's 'Find Music' service. By recording and sending a tune to Shazam server, users can easily learn a track name and artist.
And to think that most people here called them all gimmicks when they were announced! The phone manufacturers (and Apple) obviously think it's worth copying!

Those features are very marketable and they obviously worked for SE. The W910 is still selling quite well in the UK over one year since its appearance. I love the TrackID feature and its about time they linked it to PlayNow.

Amazing, isn't it? TrackID called something else.
It's not what you do or even how you do it but in what state of mind you do it: Dups! 2009 |

Considering its the brother of the G705 the proportions look quite different, the screen looks bigger somehow.

I don't really like it. It's too square, and the d-pad layout doesn't fit it, I think  |
