Samsung has released details of a new eco-friendly mobile phone aimed at kids and lower teens called the Samsung Tobi. Although targeting the younger audience for mobile phones is a hot topic at the moment, there are some features that parents will be happy to see including SOS call and message functions as well as a Fake call feature.
The Samsung Tobi or GT-S3030 to give it its full name also has a bunch of features that will not only make it ideal for kids, but is bound to be a great success in the pay and go market. The Samsung Tobi will be available in six colour variations (see picture below), and has a 1.9 inch screen, Bluetooth and USB connectivity, 1.3 megapixel camera and integrated music and video player.
The Samsung Tobi is also a handy size, measuring just 94 x 45 x 17mm and weighing in at only 85 grams. Additional features include a microSD card slot capable of taking up to 8GB for storing music, pictures and video and games including Brain Challenge and Tetris.
The Samsung Tobi GT-S3030 will be available at the end of November; there is no price yet but expect it to be relatively cheap.
