Samsung Tobi S3030 -- Mobile Phone for Preteens
Techtree News Staff, Dec 02, 2008 1407 hrs ISTPreloaded with safety features
The burgeoning mobile phone market will soon have a new segment of users - the preteens. Setting the trend is handset-maker Samsung with its Tobi S3030 designed specifically for preteens.
Available in multiple colors, Tobi S3030 is preloaded with safety features like SOS call, SOS message and Fake call for connecting directly with family members in case of emergency.
The new GSM-supporting phone is a slider with animated interface and themes. Built from bio-plastics, non-toxic paints, and non-allergic materials, the eco-friendly handset's earphones are made from PVC-free material.
Tobi S3030 has 15MB internal memory and microSD slot supporting up to 8GB memory, which can include a lot of multimedia files. Preteens can also change rear panels or sleeves to put in their own picture like Nokia 2100 and other similar handsets.
Samsung is yet to reveal the price of the handset, which will be launched in the Western countries later this month.
So what about those researches about children facing radiation risks?
Though this looks like a perfect package for preteens, the age-old debate will freshen up and get heated on whether pre-teens should be given mobiles or not. If you'd like to share your opinions, put them in the comments.
