Samsung Genio Pink SIM Free – Samsung Genio Touch Unlocked

The pink edition of the Samsung Genio Touch has now been launched as a SIM free phone with no network locks, up until today this pink colour variant of Samsung’s most affordable touch screen phone was only available on Pay As You Go deals and was locked to the network selling the handset but now you can insert any pay as you go or contract SIM card.

The Samsung Genio Pink joins 3 other colour variants in the Genio Touch range, these include the Yellow, Orange and White versions, the colour relates to the back cover of the phone rather than the overall finish and you can buy new casings called ‘Fashion Jackets’ to change the colour of your Samsung Genio to match your mood.

There has also been a new addition to the Samsung Genio range in the form of the Samsung Genio Qwerty, this new model incorporates a Qwerty, front facing keypad rather like a Blackberry phone and currently comes in two colour schemes, Yellow and White.

Samsung Genio Touch Pink

The pink Samsung Genio Touch is a full-touch handset that places users at the center of the social media revolution with a wide range of social networks support, such as Facebook, Twitter and MySpace. The new mobile complements the company’s touch screen strategy,”touch for every lifestyle”.

The best social networking services are combined with enhanced multimedia capabilities in a compact form factor. The Samsung Genio’s 2.8-inch QVGA screen delivers a quality online video experience and its quad band connectivity and support for EDGE networks means that Samsung Genio Touch users can stay in touch regardless of their location.

MP3 player, microSD card slot for cards up to 8GB and a FM radio with RDS keep the Genio Touch rocking, and the WMV support is a really nice touch. A USB port and Bluetooth 2.1 will aid in loading up the phone with music from your computer. The device represents a complete makeover for the youth segment, with its eye-catching profile featuring two-tone diagonal contours. The pink Samsung Genio is notable for both its body design and colors – which mark a significant break from the way full touch phones are usually designed.

The Samsung Genio Touch also incorporates features found on the Samsung Jet, like one finger zoom, smart unlock and as with any recent touch-based phone from Samsung – TouchWiz user interface and a great deal of widgets. It also offers something called Cartoon UI, which is described as “a highly stylised graphical menu and wallpaper that adapts according to handset functionality”.
