The Samsung F700 has been officially introduced by Samsung on February 8th, and it
has been presented as a direct response to Apple’s handset (although Samsung never admitted that). The Korean mobile phone manufacturer has admitted though that the iPhone will be the thing to infuse the mobile market with a lot of innovative looking cellphone designs, most of them trying to have a spec sheet to top the one of the Apple handset.

I don’t know if the Samsung representative has foreseeing abilities or not but, exactly like he predicted, almost every important mobile phone manufacturer on the market came out with a response to what Apple has described as a 5 year ahead revolutionary communication device.

I don’t know what your opinion is on this subject but I think they did a good job and, despite some of the handsets having a design almost exactly as the iPhone’s (talking about the Meizu miniOne here), the majority of them did bring their own improvements to the “whole touchscreen” kind of devices Apple has imagined to be the future of cellphones.

Some of you would agree with me saying Apple was the first one to think about making a handset with no mechanical interface but only with a large touchscreen. Others might rise and say LG was the first one which had this idea and their LG KE850 device is the thing to prove it. I have to say I haven’t yet made my mind on this subject so I leave each and everyone of you to decide who was the first to take a touchscreen and say that it’s enough to make a cellphone.
