Samsung Wave Y

Samsung Wave series already has three sturdy, good looking and performing hendset. S5380 aka Y is the latest addition to this series. What is significant is it’s low price. Wave Y looks pretty good with rounded corners and sturdy body. Measuring 110 x 58.2 x 12.3mm it weighs only 104gm. The front is occupied by a 3.2in capacitive touchscreen with a resoltion of 480x320 pixels.

Like its predecessors Bada 2.0 OS does duty on Wave Y. A 832MHz processor with 150 MB of internal memory is good enough for a phone at this price. Bada is quite similar to android in operation yet seems more responsive and neat.The display is decent and displays photos, videos and Internet sites adequately. Accelerometer and proximity sensors aid in game play and are accurate.

Wave Y has a 2.0 megapixel camera, capable of clicking images at l600x l200 pixels, it is good enough for sharing picture on social networks. The camera shoots video at 640x480 at 30 frame per second, the quality is smooth for this high frame rate. It also has a front facing VGA camera but unfortunately BADA app store does not have an app for video chat as yet.
