Samsung Byline
Samsung Byline
...

Push a button and you’re connected – that’s the power of the SAMSUNG Byline. It works like a walkie-talkie, yet has all the extra benefits of a powerful, sophisticated mobile phone. Like texting and email, a full Web browser and a speakerphone.

This update to the Samsung R300 adds CDMA 1700, Bluetooth, and push-to-talk (carrier-dependent) but is otherwise similar to its predecessor.

Other features of this basic clamshell phone include an external display, speaker-phone, voice dialing, and BREW for downloadable games and content.
