Samsung Blue Earth GT-S7550 review

by usmanzia on November 21, 2009

Samsung has designed a new handset with a focus on climate and energy based on Eco-mobile Blue Earth – also called Samsung Blue Earth GT-S7550 . Samsung Blue Earth has been marketed as an environmentally friendly mobile phone. The cover is made from recycled plastic bottles, and the box is untreated recycled paperboard. The charger is also environmentally friendly and leaves with less power than conventional chargers. This means that among other things may charge the phone by putting it in the sun and conserve power by choosing eco-tones.

Samsung GT-S7550 screen is 3 “and Touch (Capacitive). This means that you can only use the screen with your fingers – a control stick (stylus), a fingernail or the tip of a ball-stick does not work. It requires instead a touch-sensitive (resistive) screen

Samsung has also tried to make the mobile environment-friendly functionality – including in the form of solar cells on the back. Unfortunately, the idea works better in theory than in practice and the eco-friendly features can quickly be seen as a gimmick. One hour of charging in sunlight gives the following 5-10 minute speech on the battery.

Samsung Blue Earth also has a special eco-sound profile as ringtone, which uses 20 percent less power. Unfortunately, it is incredibly difficult to know when the phone actually rings in his pocket. I managed to miss the first five calls before I changed the profile back to normal – here is to turn no problem.

Samsung Blue Earth Features

SMS writing

SMS typing with fingers is significantly easier than at the Jet – the screen is simply better to record pressure. On the other hand, there is no QWERTY keyboard. The archaic T9 input with three letters on each button is the only option.

In return, Blue Earth can not find out that you want to dial two numbers in quick succession in the phone part. If you want to dial 12 34 56 78, is input just fine. If you want to dial eg 44 66 22 44, then you end up with 4 6 2 4, unless you hold a slight pause between the two similar figures. Double Tap does not entitle a problem in SMS section.

Through the program ‘Oeko-walk’ you can see how much CO2 emissions you have saved and how many calories you have burned, by walking instead of taking the car. It simply requires that you enter various information about his car and start up the program when the walk begins.

Samsung Blue Earth
also includes a small gimmick that may remind the user that we must care for the environment. We can thus choose that you must unlock the screen by throwing a can for recycling or off a faucet.
Internet browser in Samsung Blue Earth can show both mobile custom and general websites. Zoom function works fine: Hold your finger down the screen a short second and sliding up to zoom – down to zoom out again.

The music player is easy to operate, and the sound of the supplied in-ear headsets are approved without being exceptional. One can use their own headphones – though not directly in your mobile. Audio connector is mini USB, but the included headset can be divided in half, where there is room for standard 3.5mm connectors.

Blue Earth also has Turbo-3G, Wi-Fi, GPS chip and a 3.15 megapixel camera. The camera images can be described as average, and there is no flash or Photolight. On the other hand has even the possibility to tamper with the image brightness.

The built-in memory is 130 MB and expandable to 16 GB memory card (MicroSD). The price of the Samsung Blue Earth price is 3200 dollars without subscription.
