Samsung has released the SCH-U750 Alias 2 for the Verizon CDMA network. With a strong selection of original Samsung Alias 2 accessories already available, this is a great option if it is time for a new phone. Verizon describes the phones as -
The new Samsung Alias 2 gives you the convenience of a QWERTY keypad in a unique flip–style format. It has the same dual–hinge design that made original Alias a hit, but Alias 2adds a touch of magic – a Magic Key keypad using e–ink technology. In phone mode, you see a standard phone keypad. In texting mode, however, the keys magically change into a full, four–row QWERTY keypad. But the magic doesn’t stop there. The Alias 2also has a 2.6″ QVGA screen for crisper, clearer viewing, a 2.0 megapixel camera, and dedicated hot keys for one–touch access to some of your most used features like Bluetooth, text messaging, voicemail, camera, voice commands, games and alarms.
