My Samsung L760 is Slim, Light and Boring

by

Apple iPhone on Samsung L760 It’s difficult expressing my true feelings for the Samsung L760 because I’ve already got an Apple iPhone in Malaysia. Although the Samsung L760 is lighter and almost as slim as the Apple iPhone, the former appears to me as boring.

I guess it’s monochromatic navigation compared to the colourful icon appearance of the Apple iPhone makes me lost for words. That said, I suppose I’m overly used to viewing full colour icons even when I was still using my Sony Ericsson W800i.

Malaysia Apple iPhone and Samsung L760

by

I’ve been recently preoccupied with work, team building, Apple iPhone deals and a free new spanking Samsung L760 mobile phone. I now have 2 free mobile phones in hand – Apple iPhone (which I love to bits) and the unreleased Samsung L760. To be honest, if you were a blogger and wanted to participate in TechARP’s Samsung-Tech ARP Bloggers TT Sessions you could have done so from their website.

The seats were limited to 30 bloggers and only 25 of them were taken. Plus, as a participating blogger I got free lunch at Fasta Pasta at the first session. There are 2 sessions which require our attendance, October 20 and November November 24. Give or take, we’re having the Samsung phones for a period of 1 month.

by

After a 100% success turnover with the article; Why Malaysia is Not Talking about the iPhone?, I have finally found a suitable and qualified follow up regarding the Apple iPhone in Malaysia.

It’s uncommon for me to blog about gadgets or hardware technology related articles but the Apple iPhone was a given.

It won’t be too long now especially after the hacking of the iPhone.
