It all started with Samsung Corby S3650. Marketed as a phone that is meant for youth and priced at 8k, it was an instant hit, thanks to flashy colors and capacitive touch. After that, samsung has released a dozen phones under Corby brand name. now, it is very confusing to pick Corby. most of the phones look similar. I am going to help you out by showing up the difference between these models.

Currently available list of Corby phones are:

1) Samsung S3650 Corby

2) B5310 Corby Pro

3) B3410 Corby Plus

4) S3650W Corby

5) B3210 Corby TXT

6) C3510 Genoa/Pop

7) M3710 Corby Beat

8) B3310 Corby Mate

The original Corby had the following specification:
Display Size 2.8 inches
Display resolution/colors 240×320, 256k
Camera 2mp, smile detection, no flash

Now that we have the specs of the original Corby let’s take a look at the other Corbys one by one.

is this some sort of guide?
Isn't it too simple?
If you want:
1. Touchscreen: corby s3650(capcative,2mp),corby pop(resistive,1.3mp,3.5mm :D)
2. Candy-bar form factor with qwerty-corbyTXT
3.Side slider keyboard-mate/plus/pro(depends on budget and req.)
 
hmm. it's not that easy. one of the two phones having slider does not come with wifi and 3G, some come with 2mp cam, some with 3.2, difference in internal memory, which can play a big role in opening heavy websites etc.

It's more like a guide showing the differences in one place.
 
now follow this guide

1. decide budget

2. features

if budget is flexible

1. decide features

2. budget

but there are better phones than the corby available so factor that in too, e.g Nokia 5230
 
I would rather keep myself away from samsung phones .. honestly .. NOKIA has brought in some tough competitors .. why not that .. i know its limited .. but its better .. i would anytime go for NOKIA or SONY if given a choice .. :P
 
guys, this post and the blog is specific to Corby. it's about what mobile phone to buy for a budget of 10k. the only intention is to differenciate different corby models so that it will be easy for buyers to get the right corby they want without listening to false info given by seller.

I still see few who specifically want Corby. It's their choice and please if you want to compare Nokia and other phones with Corby, this is NOT the place.
 
Pro,txt and matte are unique. . .there is no competition for them In their respective price segment
Rest of 'em are crap
