subject: What Is the Difference Between the Samsung Corby Mate and the Samsung Corby TXT? [print this page] With the success of the original Samsung Corby, there have been several other models that Samsung has added, making Corby a relevant brand name for a while. Today, there are several Corby models that offer a range of features and fit every budget. Two of the most famous Corby models are the TXT and the Mate.
Here are some of the differences between the two, information about which will enable you to make a better decision about which model you should buy.
The Corby Mate is a Slider:
This phone might be the cheapest slider around, and with the number of features and services that it offers, you can be sure that they could have chosen almost any part of this phone to be a USP. One of these USPs is the fact that one gets a bigger, clearer keypad to use as compared to the TXT and a considerably bigger screen.
But the phone does suffer from the issue that all slider phones suffer; it is a bit clumsy to slide to reach the keypad in a jiffy. It does have a quick keypad at the edge of it, but it looks a bit weird than useful. As compared to the Corby TXT, which has a standard candy bar design and a QWERTY keypad, the Corby Mate may come up as a stylish elder brother.
The Corby Mate has a Smaller Screen:
This might seem surprising, but the Mate actually has a smaller screen as compared to the TXT. While the TXT has a 2.2 inch interface, the Mate has a 2.0 inch interface. However, the features and services in both the phones are almost the same, so you would not be missing much if you choose any of the two.
Apart from the cosmetic changes, the features like social networking, internet browsing, are available in both the models. Of course, both models support installation of applications too, so you can use your favorite applications on your phone too.
