Bada OS runs the show here, a departure from the Android and Symbian crowd of its era. Under the hood is a 1 GHz Cortex-A8 processor paired with the Hummingbird chipset and PowerVR SGX540 graphics, giving it enough muscle for smooth menu navigation and the Super AMOLED screen makes colours pop despite the modest 480 x 800 resolution across 3.3 inches.
Samsung S8500 Wave price in Malaysia starts from RM1150. Storage is tight at 390 MB internal, though a microSD slot takes cards up to 32 GB if you need more room for photos and music. The 5 MP rear camera comes with autofocus and LED flash, and it can shoot 720p video at 30fps, respectable specs for a 2010 release.
Battery capacity sits at 1500 mAh, and the phone weighs 118g in a body just 10.9mm thick. Connectivity covers Wi-Fi, GPS with A-GPS support, and HSDPA data speeds, plus Bluetooth 3.0 with A2DP for wireless audio.
