X490

The Samsung X490 (model: SGH-X490) was a clamshell mobile phone available on the T-Mobile network. It was characterised by its compact design, dual displays, basic messaging capabilities, and support for Java games, which meant it was well-positioned to be a functional communication device for its time. While it lacked some of the more advanced features that were emerging in the market, its strengths lay in its simplicity and durability as well as its affordable price.
