Yet another Samsung WM6 smartphone has been announced for Korea and Asia (isn’t this like the fifth this month?), the SPH-M4655, called the MultiTouch II by service provider LG Telecom. The PDA style phone is the follow-on to the successful SPH-M4650. The phone currently supports CDMA2000 networks with EV-DO Rev A. high speed data transfer.

Feature wise, the Samsung SPH-M4655 boasts the following:

• 624MHz processor
• 128MB of RAM
• 256 MB of ROM
• Windows Mobile 6.1 OS
• 2.8-inch 240×320 LCD touchscreen
• 2 Megapixel camera
• Bluetooth
• MicroSD expansion card slot.
• LG Telecom’s OZ 3G services.

The phone seems to be reasonably well appointed if not a powerhouse, but it’s design takes me back to the golden age of HP iPaqs, especially such devices as the sleek, silver and very popular 2215. All it’s missing are the black rubber side grips. Sort of a strange time for Samsung to be reaching back a few years for design tips, but it’s a tough market at the moment. I can honestly say I haven’t seen another smartphone recently with similar styling, and as so many devices these days look so similar perhaps they are on the right track.
