New Samsung cell phone for old people
Posted by: Maria Mihale in Samsung
It’s important for each and every category of people, from teenagers to old people, from women to men, from those interested in sports or those who just cannot live without music, to be very well taken care of by cell phone manufacturers, because this is how they all feel like being important. On the other hand, I perceive this like another way of discrimination, even if I’m aware of the fact that it’s an exaggeration from my part.

In the given context, here we have a new device, brought by Samsung, which is expected to be launched sometimes in the near future under the name of Samsung C3060R. Aimed at the old people, it seems that the handset is the first of this type announced by a famous cell phone manufacturer.
The candybar is provided with an illuminated keypad and the keys are large enough to be seen by anyone, being all made of rubber. As for the features, this new cell phone for old people comes with the following list: a 2.2 inch TFT display with a resolution of 176 x 220 pixels, and a proprietary Samsung operating system that is said to be especially designed to satisfy whatever needs the old people might have. To be more precise, the font size is a whole lot larger than you are used to, while the menus is so very simple, without complications of all sorts.
In addition, there are an FM radio, a 1.3 megapixel camera and an SOS key. It seems that the phone will become available starting the next month (June) under a price of 6,000 Russian rubles (approximately $160). The information about the release of the handset in other countries besides Russia is not known right now.
