Samsung Seek

Samsung Seek M350 sports a quite similar design and features as Samsung Exclaim. By the looks of it, the Samsung Seek seeks to deliver some fresh looks through different colors and nice patterns on its back. In addition to keeping the QWERTY keyboard for those numerous texts, the Seek also retains the same modest screen size of 2.6 inches with QVGA resolution.
