Had enough Samsung this morning? Well, how a couple of little more Samsung, then. Also at the company’s laundry list of latest devices is the Wave, which was announced earlier this week . The Wave 3 is the top end of the 3 new devices carrying that name, packing a zippy 1.4GHz processor, which seems to deal with tasks with no trouble. Like many of the remainder of the goods introduced here at IFA, the screen is the center piece of the device, a superb 4-inch WVGA unit. Also just like the remainder of Samsung’s handsets, the hardware is actually terrific at the Wave, glossy screen complimenting a brushed aluminum back.
The handset runs Bada 2.0, which means we aren’t more likely to be seeing the item inside the US any time within the near future — Samsung has largely backed clear of US support for the mobile operating system, though it promises to expand its choice of applications from third-party app developers. Also new at the software front is ChatON, a mobile messaging service which we were unfortunately unable to present a spin here in Berlin.
