The Samsung i7110 is a 3.5G device with a GPS receiver, a 5 megapixel camera with autofocus and LED flash, a multimedia player, microSD expandable memory (up to 16GB) and an FM radio. The i7110 also features a 240 x 320 pixel OLED screen capable of displaying up to 262,000 colours.
At a guess, the Symbian implementation will be similar to the one on the excellent Samsung i8510, but the handset itself is much more conventional to look at, and it measures 118 x 52 x 13mm which is a bit more pocket friendly than some similar smartphones.
We understand that the i7110 will be launched by Samsung at the Symbian Smartphone Show in London on the 21st to the 22nd October when hopefully we can give you some more details. The market availability of the i7110 might be a bit limited, but it does look like an interesting choice for people who want a more traditional Symbian capable device. It hasn’t yet been officially announced, but some details of the Samsung i7110 have been let slip by Samsung along with a low-resolution picture (below) that give a good idea about the successor to the Samsung i550 Symbian smartphone. Although we don’t have the full details, we do have enough for a mockup (pictured right) along with a pretty decent set of technical specifications.
