Samsung Alias 2 (SCH-U750) Review
|
Posted on Thursday, June 18 2009 @ 19:50:07 CEST by Thomas De Maesschalck |
Brilliant. Genius. Great idea. It's a wonder no one thought of using the E Ink electrophoretic display technology found on Amazon's Kindle to create a multi-use keypad for a cellphone. But that's exactly what Samsung has done with its second-gen Alias 2. Using E Ink, the icons on the 42-square keyboard appear as a dialpad-concentric arrangement when the dual hinge clamshell is flipped up vertically and as a QWERTY-centric array when the lid is flipped horizontally. In addition, you can also toggle through multiple arrays showing different sets of keys in each position. These changeling keys enable Samsung to eliminate the dual keypad on phones such as the LG enV3 or Samsung Rant, and create an amazingly flexible keyboard that seems to be reading your mind.
