Samsung Ultra Video F500

The Samsung Ultra Video is the ultimate personal multimedia device. It is the first phone to support the DivX codec, allowing users to view a large array of video content including MPEG-4, H.264, WMV and AVI files. It also has a PMP function with wide 2.4” screen as well as a 2.0 mega-pixel camera. The Ultra Video has a smart design to go with its cutting-edge features. Like the Ultra Music, it’s got dual faces – one side is a phone while the other contains a large screen and intuitive controls for multimedia. It has a unique swivel design for multimedia content. The screen swivels away from the controls to adjust the viewing angle or form a stand to place the device down. It has an internal memory of 400 MBs and the memory is expandable up to 2GBs using the microSD card. With 2GBs of memory, it enables the user to view about 2 movies (each about two hours long.)
