Samsung has announced the Propel cellphone that will go directly to the US by the “hands” of AT&T. The smartphone costs close to $80 with a 2-year agreement + rebate, and will become available to the public later this month.

The Propel is a “sliding” type of phone that hides a QWERTY keypad in the inside, making the writing tasks on instant messaging programs and email services much easier and faster. It supports 3G HSDPA network, and works with AT&T Mobile Music that provides songs to be purchased and downloaded.

Other features on the new Samsung cellphone include a 1.3-megapixel camera, bluetooth, MP3 player, microSD slot, and Video Share to make 2-way calls.


Running on A-GPS technology, AT&T Navigator gives customers turn-by-turn directions with maps.
