VK Mobile’s VK5000 EDGE

VK MobileA new phone from VK Mobile was showed off at CeBit 2006. The VK5000 is a very tiny tri-band GSM/EDGE handset with a pretty big feature set.

Coming in an insanely small size, the VK5000 EDGE measures 3.6″ x 2.0″ x .4″ which makes it slightly wider than Motorola’s SLVR L7, but its a little shorter and thinner to make up for it.

Mobile Burn has the details on the features of the phone.

Instead of the typical LCD display, the VK5000 uses a new OLED display with a 128×160 resolution and the ability to show 260k colors. Like other OLED displays we’ve seen, it has a barely perceptible refresh that often becomes obvious in photos, just as you would see when photographing a television. You’ll notice that the bottom half of the display has deeper colors in the example on the next page. While it lacks a memory card slot of any kind, the VK5000 has an amazing 1GB of internal flash storage built-in. That’s great news since the VK5000 has a 1.3 megapixel camera and the ability to play MP3, AAC, AAC+, and eAAC+ music files, as well as record video at 15fps.
