Messaging focused Samsung Ch@t 350 (C3500) is the latest to be leaked ahead of MWC

Somewhat of a refreshing thing to witness nowadays in the age of the smartphone revolution, we're continuing to see feature phones being announced from manufacturers – but not at the same rate that we've seen in the past. Again, we're seeing yet another Samsung device being leaked ahead of its potential MWC unveiling.

This time around, it's the entry-level Samsung Ch@t 350 (C3500) which will have a heavy focus on messaging thanks to its physical landscape sliding keyboard. Almost similar in design to previous Samsung messaging phones out there, the Ch@t 350 features a minuscule 2.4” QVGA display with support for 262k colors, 2-megapixel camera, Bluetooth 2.1, FM radio, music player, microSD card slot, 12 hours of talk time, and a microUSB 2.0 port. And based on the leaked rendered shots of the handset, it seems that it'll be running Samsung's usual TouchWiz interface.

Not surprisingly, there is no launch date or pricing tied to the device yet, but we'd fathom that it'll be mentioned next month during MWC.
