Samsung Instinct s30 Minview

Samsung Instinct s30Samsung Instinct s30

All hail the Samsung Instinct s30. It’s the new Instinct phone. Don’t call it a replacement of the origanal Instinct, it’s nothing like that. Think of it as an upgrade. There are a few major differences: For some unknown reason, the s30′s browsing capabilities were downgraded from Revision B to Rev. A. This means a slightly longer loading time for the web. The s30 is much sleeker than the origanal Instinct: only curved, beveled edges. It’s smaller, too. Both the Instinct and the s30 come with a ton of features. List below:
