With a depth of mere 16mm, the handset includes features such as a 2 mega-pixel camera with auto focus, external touch music keys, 30 MB of internal memory and microSD external memory slot. The Z560 has a wide display for the convenient use of multimedia functions at a very high speed data rate. It uses a 2.3\u201d QVGA 262K LCD to ensure a clear, sharp screen image. The Z560 will be available in Europe at 2nd quarter of 2006.<\/font><\/p>\n<p><font size=\"2\">At the end of 2005, Samsung announced the introduction of HSDPA phone for the first time in Europe through cooperation with Vodafone and Qualcomm. Samsung has also demonstrated the industry\u2019s first HSDPA handset speeds of 3.6Mbps at CES in January 2006 and will demonstrate the technology for the first time in Europe at 3GSM. <\/font><\/p>\n<p><font size=\"2\">Samsung\u2019s 3.6Mbps HSDPA handset allows users to download content much faster than on WCDMA or GSM\/GPRS networks. For example, downloading a 4MB mp3 file takes less than 10 seconds at 3.6Mbps HSDPA. Demonstration of web browsing, as well as streaming and downloading of content will be held to compare the speed of 384Kbps (WCDMA speed) and 1.8 Mbps HSDPA phone.<\/font><\/p>\n<p><font size=\"2\">Kitae Lee, president of Samsung Telecommunication Business stated: \u201cSamsung is proud to showcase HSDPA technology as the future of mobile broadband. By introducing our new strategic model, Z560, Samsung will drive the commercialization and deployment of HSDPA in Europe and lead the market. \u201d <\/font><\/p>\n<p><font size=\"2\">HSDPA, a new form of mobile broadband, is capable of transmitting data at speeds up to seven times faster than that of WCDMA. Users can enjoy large-scale multimedia downloads, such as DVD-quality movies and interactive multimedia games, with high-speed wireless Internet access comparable to speeds of fixed-line ADSL services.<\/font><\/p>\n<p \/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Samsung Electronics is planning the launch of a new HSDPA handset (model: SGH-Z560) for Europe.
