post Category: Cell Phones, Samsung post postJuly 22, 2008

Cheap Chinese knockoffs were the only things that played host to two SIMs simultaneously until now, but Samsung looks to change the game with the new D980 cell phone. While it didn’t meet with much success on its first try with the P720, the D980 designed for the Chinese market (D988 DuoS in other markets) sure looks equipped to take on the relatively small dual-SIM arena. Based on the Samsung F480, the D980 has a 2.6-inch QVGA 262K color touchscreen display, a 5-megapixel autofocus camera, a microSD slot, USB connectivity, and Bluetooth 2.0. Both the SIM slots should work with GSM triband 900/1800 MHz networks with speeds topping out at EDGE. Looks like Samsung couldn’t afford to slap in 3G, but a pretty neat package nevertheless. There is no information on its availability in Europe, but we will try to keep you in the loop as more comes in.
