The smart and emotional touch interface coupled with its sophisticated design appeal to users who are looking for the latest functionality and enjoy expressing their individuality.

SEAMLESS CONNECTIVITY AND MULTIMEDIA ENTERTAINMENT

Despite its slim 11.6 mm body, the F480 also boasts all the multimedia functions you would expect from a premium Samsung mobile. This includes 240 MB of internal music memory, a memory card with up to 8GB storage, an integrated FM radio, a 5 megapixel camera featuring auto focus and a CMOS video lens.
In addition, the phone also offers high-end camera features which are better known on a digital SLR than a camera phone, such as automatic face detection technology and a sophisticated image stabilizer.
The 'smile shot'mode makes its first appearance ever on a mobile phone in the Samsung F480. This intelligent feature enables the camera to detect when the subject is smiling and automatically take a picture, so you can capture your happiest moments.
The F480's high speed internet access (HSDPA) and USB 2.0 connectivity enables users to transfer and download data faster. Whether they are music or video files, customers can enjoy all the benefits of being online on-the-go.
The launch will be supported with a European advertising campaign. The F480 will be available from June in major European markets and soon across other GSM regions. To learn more about the F480 and Samsung's mobile technology and handsets, please visit www.samsungmobile.com nw
