Samsung Wave Y, touted as the smartphone for beginners, has a metallic hairline body, a 3.2” and an HVGA screen. It comes with Music Hub, a portable music manager, which gives ‘users a jukebox in their pocket’.

Both Wave M and Wave Y allow mobile social networking with Social Hub and ChatON.
(ChatON is Samsung’s global cross-platform communication service that instantly links users with all friends and contacts, and allows setting up of micro-communities through group chat and sharing of content and conversations between mobile and PC.)

All three phones allow multi-tasking, Wi-Fi Direct, voice recognition and Near Field Communication (optional). They also offer advanced services such as photo and file sharing without internet networking, mobile payment and transport pass-card recharge.

 JK Shin, President and Head of Samsung’s Mobile Communications business said,“Smartphones are gaining popularity by the day. The new additions to the Wave portfolio are the first to benefit from the power of our bada 2.0 platform; the full extent of our commitment is clear to see in each device. We’ve produced easy-to-use smartphones that will inspire the market.”
