Samsung has just introduced Samsung Galaxy Pro, which the company claimed to be the first smartphone with a full QWERTY keyboard in the Samsung Galaxy series. It’s an Android (Froyo 2.2) smartphone with a 2.8-inch touch-screen display and powered by an 800MHz chip. Samsung also includes its TouchWiz 4.0 as its user interface and the Samsung Social Hub Premium. Generally, it looks like a shorter version of Samsung Galaxy S with a QWERTY keyboard.
This phones looks suitable for those who don’t fancy typing by touching the screen. It also comes with a ample 3.0 megapixel camera, which is one of the disappointing feature of this phone. Perhaps, Samsung is thinking professionals don’t really need a phone with good camera.
