Posted by: Maria Mihale in Samsung


The Samsung Jet has already been released in the United Kingdom, after it was widely talked about all over the world, and it’s now time for it to become available in Korea too.

It seems that the phone, which is part of the high-end range, will become available in Korea in three different versions: the Samsung W850, the Samsung W8500 and the Samsung W8550. Don’t worry, the handsets are not different as far as the features are concerned, the names are the only ones to differ. The reason is quite simple: there are three carriers that are interested in selling the device and each of the three has a different name prepared for the Jet.



The three carriers are as it follows: KTF, LG Telecom and SK Telekom. And they are ready to offer a phone that is equipped with a 3.5 inches WVGA AMOLED display, which is a little bit more than the S800 had to offer (the Jet has a 3.1 inches display), DMB support, a 5 megapixel camera, TouchWiz 2.0 user interface, GPS functionality, Bluetooth connectivity, a media player and many others.

As for the price of the W850 / W8500 / W9550, we have heard that the device will be sold under the price of 800,000 KRW (which means approximately $630).
