The guys over at Boy Genius Report have un-boxed the Samsung Epix i907 mobile phone, and have posted some cool images of the occasion. So here is a brief rundown of what they think of the Samsung Epix i907. The BGR boys think that aside from the AT&T Tilt, the Samsung Epix i907 is probable the thickest mobile handset in AT&T’s line up and comes packing Windows Mobile 6.1 Pro, QWERTY keyboard, touch-screen with haptic feedback, 850MHz/1900MHz/2100MHz HSDPA and GPS and optical mouse.

The problem is although some may overlook this beast’s size, the screen does look extremely dated and pixelated, similar to that of the Samsung Omnia. via Boy Genius Report

 
Samsung rolled out its latest smartphone on Tuesday, which features a touchscreen, slide out QWERTY keyboard and Windows Mobile operating system. The device, called The Epix, is available only throughAT&T (NYSE: T) and will function on its 3G network.

The network, when paired with Windows Mobile 6.1 is billed as allowing users to check their email via Outlook and access a full array of Microsoft Office products, including Excel. The smartphone also allows for easy Web surfing and access to video.

One of the interesting features of the Epix is the optical mouse feature. Located in the center of the phone, users can move their finger over the mouse in order to navigate through the menus of the phone or surf the Web. The optical mouse feature can also be used to click and make selections while browsing, checking email or interacting with any of the phone’s other features.

But if navigating optically is too much for a user, the feature can be turned off, letting users navigate with the Epix’s built-in stylus. The Epix’s optical mouse is just one of the innovative parts of the mobile device.

 
How innovative it is, thanks to technology. I should have one soon…
