Samsung U900 FlipShot Red Phone (Verizon Wireless)



Combining a cellular communications powerhouse with a powerful digital camera/camcorder, the uniquely designed Samsung Flipshot for Verizon includes a rotating display for optimal viewing while capturing still images and video clips on the go. Looking like a typical digital camera on the back with its round silver lens housing and flash, the Flipshot offers a 3-megapixel imager as well as a 10-step digital zoom, PictBridge printing right from the phone, and a wide variety of settings for capturing the perfect picture. Additionally, it's compatible with Verizon's V Cast Music service, which enables you to purchase songs through your phone and download them via Verizon's fast EV-DO data network, as well as V Cast Video for streamed video clips from a variety of channels. Other features include Bluetooth stereo music streaming, mobile email and instant messaging, MicroSD memory card expansion, and a built-in GPS receiver for use with the optional VZ Navigator turn-by-turn direction service.

Verizon Service
With support for the EV-DO high-speed data standard, you'll enjoy fast access to the Internet and Verizon's multimedia services (additional charges applicable), with average download speeds ranging from 400 to 700 Kbps and peak rates up to 2 Mbps. (Learn more about where EV-DO coverage is offered.) The V Cast Music service enables you to download songs instantly to your phone, or purchase music through your PC and transfer the files to your phone. If purchased from your phone, you'll receive two copies of the song: a Windows Media Audio Pro Plus format at 64Kbps stereo is sent to your phone, and a Windows Media Audio 9 format at 160Kbps stereo is sent to your account in the V CAST Music online store for downloading to your PC. V Cast Music offers nearly 2 million songs, with more being added all the time.

With the V Cast Video service, you can stream or download video clips to your phone from a variety of news, entertainment, sports, and weather channels, including CNN, ABC News, E!, CBS Sports, The Weather Channel, and VH1.

Getting on the Internet is easy using Verizon's Mobile Web 2.0 package, which allows you to read and send e-mails, exchange instant messages and view your favorite web content on your phone. Verizon's Get It Now wireless download service is also fully compatible with this phone. This pay-per-download service features application downloads, games and productivity tools. You can also personalize your handset with ringtone downloads using the Get It Now service.

With this GPS-enabled phone, you'll be able to access Verizon's VZ Navigator service (additional charges applicable) for voice-prompted turn-by-turn directions, heads-up alerts, local search of nearly 14 million points of interest in the US (such as landmarks, restaurants and ATMs), and detailed color maps. And Verizon's Chaperone service lets you easily locate your loved ones from your Verizon Wireless phone or PC in real time. After defining a zone, such as an area designating a school or summer camp, you'll be sent an alert via text message when the Chaperone handset enters or leaves the zone.

Phone Features
The Flipshot features a traditional clamshell design with a swiveling display that can rotate 180 degrees, enabling you to close the phone so that the large 2.2-inch internal display faces outward and activates the camera mode. This internal display has a 240 x 320-pixel resolution and support for up to 262K colors, while the external 65K-color screen offers a 128 x 96-pixel resolution (1.2 inches) and provides call information, signal strength, and a digital version of an analog clock. You can also change the display wallpaper and the clock style. The phone also includes dedicated play/pause music controls.

The 3-megapixel camera snaps pictures in eight resolution options from 2048 x 1536 (2 MP) to 160 x 120, and it includes a 10x digital zoom, three quality settings, brightness and white balance controls, multi-shot capability, night mode, spot metering, and ISO selection. For video capture, the Flipshot records clips in MPEG4 format in two resolutions--320 x 240 and 176 x 144 pixels. You can shoot video as long as your memory card has available space, and videos shot for MMS messaging are capped at 30 seconds. View your pictures and videos on your home theater system with the TVâ€"out option.

This phone provides Bluetooth version 1.2 wireless connectivity, and includes profiles for communication headset, handsfree car kits, and audio/video remote control. With the A2DP Bluetooth profile, you can stream your music to a pair of compatible Bluetooth stereo headphones. You can connect your laptop (either via Bluetooth or wired USB) and enjoy dial-up networking--surf the Internet, send email, and access files from a server.

A messaging and wireless Internet powerhouse, support is built in for sending and receiving pictures, text, graphics, sound and video via messages. When used in combination with the phone's built-in still and video camera, MMS opens up a whole new world of messaging fun. Instant messaging is also supported, and the phone ships with a built-in email client. The Flipshot also comes stock with a built-in web browser for downloads and mobile web browsing. T9 text entry, which is a technology that makes it easier for entering text on handsets, is built into the unit--a plus for mobile email and text messaging users.

The Flipshot's internal phone book can hold up to 500 contact entries with five phone numbers and two emails per entry, while the phone's picture ID system allows you to assign pictures to your most common callers.
