MetroPCS Announces Samsung Tint

Today metroPCS announced the launch of the newest phone to their lineup, the Samsung Tint. The Tint is a flip phone with the most basic of features. The phone includes a 0.3 megapixel camera, Bluetooth, GPS and speakerphone. A notable feature that is missing from the Tint is a MP3 player, which is standard in almost all phones. With it’s limited features this phone is definitely for the customer that only wants to use their cell phone to make calls.

If you want to spice up this otherwise basic phone there are a number of different face and back plates for the phone. Colors include pink, green, purple and red. It’s like slapping lipstick on a pig though. I’m not really sure how much traction this phone is going to get, but hey, I’ve been surprised before. The Tint isn’t available for purchase yet, but I’m guessing it will not be expensive at all.
