Samsung’s own-brand mobile phone opertaing system, Bada, has been knocking around for a few years now, but while pleasant enough, it’s always lacked anything worth downloading. Now though, Rovio has brought Angry Birds, its mega gaming hit-cum-village bike, to the platform.
Samsung lumbers on with bada, its own supposedly smartphone operating system, against all the odds, and what we’ve got here on show at IFA this week is the platform’s new flagship: the Samsung Wave 3. See if it’s as swell as it looks here in our hands on gallery.
Samsung Wave II owners who can’t wait to try the new version of the Bada OS will no longer have to – a build of the new & improved Bada 2.0 has been leaked and can be downloaded by the curious (and brave – it might brick your phone).
Check out the video clips below to see it in action.
Last year we had the privilege of putting the Parrot AR Drone through its paces, pairing the unmanned flying machine with our iPod touch. This year at E3 Parrot has some exciting news — the AR Drone is now compatible with Android, Symbian and bada.
Like an episode of Looney Tunes, that’s not all folks. For the developers in attendance, Parrot has released a SDK to develop new applications for AR Drone across iOS, Android, bada and Symbian. In addition, Parrot announced AR Race, a race game which supports one to four pilots.
The Samsung Wave 2 has had a seriously stealthy launch in the UK. I’s now on sale, not that Samsung has been bigging it up much, instead going all Galaxy, all Android all the time with its marketing hype – curious perhaps, since the Samsung Wave 2 runs Samsung’s own operating system, bada, which it’s poured huge amounts of investment into.
A year on from the original Wave’s splash debut at Mobile World Congress 2010, does the Samsung Wave 2 deliver? Find out in our full Samsung Wave 2 review.
The Samsung Wave 2 has just washed up at our door, so we’ve down the only fitting thing and unboxed it for you. We’ll have a full review for you next week of course, but in the meantime, come and see the pictures of it right here, and right now!
The Samsung Wave 723 has washed up on UK shores at last, more than six long months after the first handset with Samsung’s all new bada operating system arrived – the perfectly pleasant Samsung Wave. As promised, Samsung’s taking bada down market however, and this smaller, cheaper model is aimed at bringing bada to the masses. Does it get the job done? Find out in our Samsung Wave 723 review.
