Samsung S9110 Watch phone – The Network

Samsung S9110 watch phone will be supporting 2G network. It will be dual band GSM network GSM 900 and GSM 1800. Unluckily, Samsung S9110 will not be enabled with 3G like its major competitor lg-gd910. Though the phone comes with several advanced technologies, but to keep the design slimmer, certain aspects were left. However, Samsung S9110 will support Outlook sync. No 3G support means the absence of two major features at least - no support for video calls and lack of high speed data. Out of the two major features that Samsung S9110 lacks, no support for video calls comes as a big blow as the fun factor of video conferencing on a watch phone is completely lost. Let’s see whether the other features can compensate this gap or not.

Samsung S9110 – The Memory

Samsung S9110 wrist watch phone comes with an internal memory of 40 megabytes that can easily hold up the memory and record of phonebook contacts, messages, call records such dialed calls, received calls and missed calls, etc. The major disadvantage is the non availability of card slot, which means that expansion of memory is not possible.

Samsung watch phone S9110 – The Multimedia Features

The multimedia features of a cell phone are its most prominent highlights. Among the multimedia features, the most important aspects are music and camera.

But, one thing is to be kept in mind that there is no expandable memory so all the features and applications are stored within the available memory of 40 megabytes. So, there is a doubt about how many songs the device would be able to load. There is no clue about the equalizer or the music player features of this watch phone. Samsung provide A2DP Bluetooth® headset for that wireless experience of listening music. Apart from music, let’s check out the other vital multimedia aspect of this watch phone- camera. Sorry guys!
