Samsung Wave 533

"The Samsung Wave 533 is the first bada OS phone with a physical keyboard, and it is a good one – with ample space between keys, and enough travel to them."
phonearena.com | talking about the Wave 533's keyboard
"Samsung Wave 533 has a 1200mAh battery with no official talk time specs yet, but we achieved about two days of using the handset, so we are at least positive that it hits the average mark."
