T-Mobile Announces New Samsung Phones with myFaves

Samsung and T-Mobile announced the availability of the Samsung T629, T619 and T509s - three new handsets that support T-Mobile's myFaves service.

The T629, a slim slider phone, and the T619, an eye-catching clamshell, feature multimedia capabilities such as a 1.3-megapixel camera with zoom, an MP3 player and multimedia messaging. On-the-go consumers can rely on quad-band technology to keep them connected across the globe, while Bluetooth wireless technology allows for efficient, hands-free communication.

The T509s follows its predecessor, the award-winning T509, and puts a colorful spin on thin with its color upgrade to deep plum. The thin bar phone features a VGA camera with video capture and advanced messaging capabilities. High-speed EDGE connectivity and Bluetooth wireless technology allows consumers to record and share videos, as well as downloads.

myFaves from T-Mobile enables users to have five photos or icons on the home screen of a myFaves-enabled phone that illustrate the five people who matter most to them; and with a simple click, have unlimited nationwide calling to those five 'Faves.' The T629, T619 and T509s are available exclusively at select T-Mobile retail stores and online.
