Samsung a990 Features
July 21, 2007

The Samsung a990 is a very powerful, feature rich phone that is currently available with Verizon Wireless (7/21/2007). The model offers a rare, 3.2 megapixel digital camera/camcorder that has an even rarer tv output. The model can be hooked up to a television cable, allowing the user to watch recorded videos and view snapshots.
Recording video with the a990 is much different than with most other models. The phone offers a built-in twist feature which allows the view finder to work like a camcorder.
