You must have heard of this before – that insanity has been described as doing the same thing and expecting a different result. Samsung has managed to make a name for themselves in the past few years as a smartphone powerhouse, rolling out device after device with unerring reliability, seemingly targeting the entire gamut of possible phone users out there, ranging from the entry level to the mid-range before making its way to the high end side of things. Well, Samsung has gotten themselves into a rather rocky patch at the moment, which is why they intend to do things slightly different next year. Word has it that there is a new Samsung SM-E500F in the pipeline that ought to reduce the number of new smartphones released in a single year.
The Samsung SM-E500F was spotted on the Zauba import tracking site, where it is being shipped to India for testing purposes. This also marks the very first time that a Samsung device has adopted the letter “E” in its model name, which could very well be the strongest hint yet that this is the first of a potentially new family of smartphones. This looks set to be an entry level offering with its import price of INR9,378, that is converted to approximately $151.
