Samsung i7: Spin it, honey

Edvarcl Heng | Apr 26, 2007

The rotating 3-inch touchscreen LCD will probably draw looks, and perhaps some finger smudges. Samsung even paired it with a tagline of “my digital world revolves the way I want”. Turn it on and it’s a camera, spin the LCD 90 degrees and it’s a PVP. Turn it another 90 and it becomes an MP3 player. It’s snazzy fun, a great conversation piece, but it is really more fluff than serious functionality.

Editors' note:

According to Samsung Asia, both the i70 and the i7 will be launched in Southeast Asia in early May.

Cool is the World Tour Guide feature which has travel information for 30 countries such as images and details on famed tourist attractions (or is that traps?) stored in the camera’s 450MB internal memory. And with such a fancy camera, make knowing where the nearest police station is your top priority, since eagle-eyed pickpockets would be eyeballing it, too.
