Nokia 5250 | Inspired From Samsung Corby and Samsung S560 Monte?
Nokia 5250 was announced this month, and it was expected to be released this last quarter. Though the phone is not yet released, different phone critics said that it was inspired from the Samsung Corby. Why? They have the screen size and camera specifications, and one more thing both the Nokia 5250 and the Samsung Corby have interchangeable covers. They say that the two mobile phones differ on the video recording aspect as well as the OS, Nokia 5250 runs with Symbian OS, S60 rel.5. Some people also say that Nokia 5250 is a look-a-like of X10 mini.
Critics said that it was a copy-paste from Samsung S5620 Monte, so I did a little research to confirm these things. I found several differences, Samsung Monte has 3G, limited contacts (up to 2000), has a bigger internal memory up to 200MB, has Wi-Fi, better camera with Geo tagging and smile detection, no OS, with FM recording, and with GPS support. The features I stated can’t be seen on Nokia 5250, so it’s clear that it was not a phone inspired from the Samsung Monte.
