You like Verizon’s services and their prices, but you’d like to own a slider? Then maybe you can hold on just a while until the release of the new Samsung U490. Similar with LG Vu and featuring the most basic stuff that you are looking in a mobile, it features a colored LCD display, a 1.3 Megapixel camera, 1GB of internal memory, a microSDHC card slot and the attractive touch-sensitive control pad. Other than these there’s a 3.5mm headset jack and a large speaker.

Lacking EVDO support, although the U490 packs a hidden numeric keypad that slides out, it looks rather generic. So what is so special about this mobile? Maybe the Mobile Web 2.0 browser? Expected to be unveiled at CTIA later this month, Samsung U490 proves tobe a fancy high-end phone with great gadgetry. [via PhoneArena]
