Samsung recently released their Wave smartphone, largely to showcase Bada, the company’s open mobile platform. The device was well-received by customers and critics, encouraging the company to continue developing product lines featuring Bada. In an effort to reach growing markets such as Russia, Samsung has released Wave 2.

Performing reconnaissance duty in uncharted cellular territory, the Wave 2 does not support 3G networks. It provides instead quad band that supports GPRS/EDGE. The Wave 2 still offers WiFi b/g/n, but there is no Bluetooth v3.0. Instead, there is v2.1, which probably won’t be much of a concern in the areas in which the device will be released. The Wave 2 Pro, companion handset to the Wave 2, has a slide out QWERTY keyboard, while the standard Wave 2 is touch only. The screen is 3.2 inches and TouchWiz is the user interface.

The Wave 2 comes equipped with 80MB of onboard memory and a microSD slot that allows for up to 16GB. Maybe it’s not as much memory as is found on the lighting fast, high priced smartphones on the market, but there is still plenty to keep the Wave 2 from bogging down while performing tasks. It is, after all, a smartphone geared toward social networking. Facebook and Twitter are already installed on the Wave 2 and plenty of other applications can obtained from the Samsung Apps store.

Of course, since the Wave 2 is being marketed as an introduction for developing markets, there are sacrifices to be made in order to keep the phone affordable. That is not to say that the device is barebones, however. There may be no DivX or Xvid playback, but there is an FM radio, GPS, microUSB, and the aforementioned microSD slot on the Wave 2. And since the phone is designed to focus on social networking, Samsung installed its own Social Hub that combines Twitter, Facebook, IM, and email all into one location. Apps such as games and navigation tools can be downloaded without installing additional software onto the phone, or the user can synch the phone to a PC for larger files. And since cameras are a necessity on smartphones these days, the Wave 2 comes complete with the 3-megapixel variety.

While the Wave is still on the shelf, the Wave 2 is a fine cousin to it directed toward new markets. The Samsung Wave 2 has been designed for affordability and reliability rather than for the latest and greatest extraneous functions. It is a fine addition to Samsung’s Wave line.
