Now called Samsung Wave (S8500), the rumored Bada handset has been made official at the MWC event. It will feature a 3.3-inch Super AMOLED display and will be powered by new operating system, Bada. This smartphone will be the first (among the rest) to feature Bluetooth 3.0. Its 3.3-inch Super AMOLED display will feature a resolution of 800 × 480 pixels which unfortunately doesn’t offer multitouch but there are still chances of getting a better screen in terms of it being brighter, clearer and less reflective thanks to Samsung’s OnCell technology. Samsung also added mobile Digital Natural Image engine technology in this phone; it’s the same technology that is used in their line of LCD TVs and LED TVs. Aside from Bluetooth 3.0 being featured on this phone, there are also 802.11n WiFi, TouchWiz 3.0, aGPS, accelerometer, multi-codec support for DivX, XviD, MP3 and WMV.
It will work on an unknown (as far as we know, no brand name was given) 1GHz processor. There will be a 5-megapixel camera and 2GB or 8GB internal memory with a microSD expansion slot. This phone will also support virtual 5.1 surround sound and 720p recording / decoding. The Samsung Wave (S8500) will hopefully release in April and as of now, no price for this phone was made official.
