No, it looks better than the Serene, but that's not all that hard to achieve imho...

Nope, no keyboard. It works with the scrollwheel. It is actually quite uncomfortable because the display is underneath the scrollwheel. When I played with it, my hands sometimes covered the display because I simply held the device.

I couldn't manage to take much photos because the device's battery was almost empty. SMS is supported, it works a little like the Nokia 7380. I don't know if it supports 3G, by this time the device was already empty.

Oh well, a slight step up from the egg timer i guess, but why oh why copy Nokias braindead scrollwheel concept?! That has got to be one of the most stupid ideas in modern time.

Phone: indeed......
Slides upwards to reveal speaker......enough room in the picture for a sensible sized one; could this be the first proper-sounding phone loudspeaker??

Severely hoping it's better than 72/7380 for text input though(brings back nightmares)......

I don't think that the scrollwheel will be very convenient for texting, it's just the name and the strange design you pay for.... I haven't experienced the sound but I think that it will very good. Bang & Olufsen itself is also very good in sound and speakers and the phone speaker looked very impressive.

Hey mobile phone helpdesk. How come that you have made a full spec. sheet, but you don't know if there is UMTS or not, and the phone isn't announced yet?

Link to spec sheet: http://www.gsmhelpdesk.nl/specs.php?id=2152

Domipost we already made a spec sheet but the details are uncertain for now. This is what we expect the device to be, but I don't think that it will have UMTS and two camera's. That is what we gave in a couple of weeks ago when Samsung confirmed the device.

I don't get this phone... I'm probably not supposed to either, but still...

1,500 € for a pretty big phone with a small touch screen and a unique design? The Serene I could almost understand, but this? I don't get it...

I actually think it looks better than the Serene - the UI seems to be quite nice, and it is different enough to stand out, but not as awkward as the Serene.

And I'm not a huge fan of B&O designs...

the serene had a 3650 alike keypad arrangement, while the serenata like an upturned 3650. does it rhyme with pinata?

chlettn, I agree that it does look better than the Serene, but as a phone it really seems weird. It has a nice design, but I can't see the idea behind it... I guess this is what they call art
