Future Samsung YP-RB

[lebellium]

I don't know much about it, except its name...
The source is http://damool82.egloos.com/2575132

After personal inquiry I found the original source of the info:


Certification from the Korean Radio Research Agency dated 15 April!
The product name is strange... What does "B" stand for? DMB maybe... Who knows...
And why is it written "Samsung Indonesia" (the same for the YP-S1)

Too mysterious for me

[likeraser]

It`s in Huizhou(China) and Indonesia that Samsung`s factory MP3 Player section.
(It doesn`t exist that Samsung`s factory MP3 Player section in Korea.)

So, I guess that Samsung wrote like that.

[lebellium]

Yepp indeed, I think you're right. I forgot Samsung has a factory in Indonesia

[a_tumiwa]

usually the Chinese Samsung factory produces the new Samsung DAP first before indonesian samsung factory

First videos from Korea (probably a sample with a beta firmware)

As you can see there is a new interface (home menu, playing screen), maybe the same on the future Samsung DAP!

Ohh man I want this player!

So bad! more so than the R0...

It has a bigger screen & it isn't touchscreen just like the R0

Damn I wish I knew someone in Korea! lol

[lebellium]

With a 3" 400*240 non-touch screen and tactile buttons there is also the CP3, but it's a bit less sexy

I'm sure there are some Korean webshops you could buy on even if you are not Korean. It's just a question of money

[skybluedream]

I did consider the CP3 a while ago...

It's still available on ebay... 8 GB costs $140 though. R0 16GB costs $150...

Still does CP3 have same sound quality like the R0?

You must've heard the both?

CP3 too has same screen resolution like this RB...

Seems to me RB is just a CP3 in a R0 type casing....with it's shiny new interface & extra battery life.

Still if RB costs $150 or so for 16 gigs on ebay I think it would be well worth it.


I could pull the trigger on the R0 right now but...it's screen resolution & size is a bit of a downer.

YP-RB has been released yesterday in korea.
Is "DNSe Sound Alive ™" new generation of sound engine?

[lebellium]

Yes I guess. They'll probably use it in other models. They won't develop a new sound engine for a a single model!
So Sound Alive = DNSe 4.0 I think
