Samsung SGH-F400 is a dual-slide phone with Bang & Olufsen's
sound technology. There's a lot more to the F400 than its musical capabilities,
but as they set the handset apart then it will be worth looking at them first.
One immediately obvious feature is the large stereo speaker that slides up from
the top of the handset, in a similar manner to the Samsung Serenata and the
Samsung i450. This means that the SGH-F400 should be loud enough to actually
hear your music tracks or the FM radio properly.
The sound system uses Bang & Olufsen's ICEpower amplification system, it also
comes with music recognition, a comprehensive audio library function, Samsung's
Digital Natural Sound Engine and other music related goodies. The SGH-F400 takes
a standard 3.5mm headphone plug, and it also comes with an FM radio with RDS.
Samsung SGH-F400 As we said, there's more to the Samsung F400 than just music.
This is an HSDPA capable 3.5G device with a maximum download speed of 3.6 Mbps.
The F400 also supports GPRS and EDGE data, plus 2100 MHz UMTS and tri-band GSM.
From this, we can tell that the Samsung F400 is aimed primarily at the European
market.
On the back of the Samsung F300 is a 3 megapixel CMOS camera. From the press
photographs we can see that it does appear to have a flash, but we don't know if
the camera is an autofocus or fixed-focus unit.
SGH-F400 B&O labelling The 2.2 inch 240 x 320 pixel TFT display is
semi-concealed behind the F400's glossy surface. Overall, this is an attractive
looking handset, but it isn't terribly distinctive. The B&O labelling on the
SGH-F400 is very discrete.
The Samsung SGH-F400 measures 103 x 48 x 17mm, and it supports USB 2.0 and
Bluetooth 2.0. There's a microSD slot to extent the memory capacity of the
phone.

Apple. Nokia. Sony Ericsson. Fight, fight, fight Kit of the Year The mobile phone may not have killed the MP3 player, as some pundits prediced, but that hasn't stopped it trying. So if you're going to put music on a mobile, which give the best performance?…
