Samsung Wave II with 3.7-inch Super-Clear LCD

Samsung has unveiled a new Wave handset today – the Wave II. They already have the Wave 2 (Wave 525) but this is Wave II (S8530), the successor of original Wave. The new Wave II has got a subtle revamp and adopts a larger screen – a 3.7-inch one (800×480) but now comes with a Super clear LCD (we assume it’s the same as Super TFT) as compared to original Wave’s 3.3-inch Super AMOLED.

The Wave II has also got a bump on the software side and now brings some improvements like the inclusiion of T9 input method Trace. Think of it as bada’s version of Swype.




As for the remaining features, the phone still has a 1GHz CPU, HSDPA, Wi-Fi 802.11n, Bluetooth 3.0, 3.5mm headphone jack, 5MP camera with LED flash and HD video recording, 2GB internal memory, microSD card slot and 1500mAh battery.

The phone will be available in November in Germany for a price of 429 euros ($588).
