`
`Samsung Press Release
`
`SEOUL, KOREA, Oct 10th, 2006: Samsung reinforces its technology
`leadership by launching the world’s first 10 megapixel mobile phone
`(model: SCH-B600) in Korean market. Samsung reached another
`milestone in camera phones by launching 10 megapixel camera phone,
`which was unveiled at CeBIT in March this year. Samsung has been
`the first to introduce mobile phone with embedded camera in 2000. Samsung has also launched the
`world’s first 5 megapixel camera phone in October 2004 ; the world’s first 7 megapixel camera phone in
`July 2005. Samsung’s 10 megapixel camera phone (SCH-B600) is 6mm thinner and 10g lighter than
`the 7 megapixel camera phone (SCH-V770) and sets itself apart from its previous megapixel camera
`phones by combining mobile TV capability in Satellite standard.
`
`The B600 offers the same level of picture-taking sophistication that a 10 megapixel digital camera
`offers. The camera function includes 3x optical zoom and 5x digital zoom. It also has auto focus and a
`flash unit that performs optimally for 10 megapixel photographs.
`
`Also, the B600 comes fitted with a LED autofocus feature which assists users to capture clear, crisp
`photos even in dark settings. Located next to the lens, the LED autofocus automatically determines the
`distance and utilizes the appropriate focus setting for optimal photo shooting.
`
`The B600 also supports white balance, manual focus, continuous picture-taking, and interval picture-
`taking functions.
`
`It also supports Bluetooth which enables users to send pictures wirelessly to other mobile phones,
`printers or to Bluetooth headsets.
`
`The high color Reproduction TFT-LCD produces the highest possible display for its size. The photo-fine
`chromic LCD can reproduce 16 million colors, virtually any color found in nature, earning it the “True
`Color” appellation. Moving pictures can be recorded in QVGA resolution at 15-30 frames per second.
`Users can watch live TV in crisp picture through Satellite DMB function.
`
`It also supports external memory (MMCmicro) in addition to its internal memory. The mobile phone
`supports a TV-out function where users can connect their phones to view still or motion pictures.
`
`The B600 comes with a design reminiscent of a real digital camera. The front is designed as a bar-type
`mobile phone, while the back side is used as the digital camera.
`
`Other advanced functions in the B600 include an MP3 player, business card reader, and 128
`polyphonic sounds.
`
`The price of B600 is around 900,000 won (about $ 900) in Korea.
