Corby on steroids!
The previously unknown Samsung M5650 Lindy has gone on sale in Portugal
The touchscreen Samsung M5650 Lindy handset has surfaced online bearing a remarkable resemblance to the Samsung S3650 Genio Touch.
The original Corby Genio Touch certainly had a small price tag and a touchscreen interface working in its favour but the spec list is very entry-level, and the colour schemes a bit much for some to bear.
Clearly heeding these factors on the M5650 Lindy, with a more “sensible” colour range and a serious bump in the specs department including a 3-megapixel camera, Wi-Fi and a forward facing camera for video calling.
Rounding off the improvements is the inclusion of up to 7.2Mbps HSDPA connectivity and dedicated music playback keys.
According to GSMArena.com, the Samsung M5650 is already available to buy, but we certainly haven't seen it on our shores yet. It has however seemingly trickled out with little fanfare in select locations; with one Portuguese operator currently offering it for €149, down from €159.
It sounds like a fairly interesting prospect for the price-tag; it's only a shame that there's no 3.5mm headphone socket, particularly if Samsung is putting the M5650 Lindy up against the likes of the Nokia 5530 XpressMusic.
