 We got the first official photos of Samsung’s slim SGH-A727 and SGH-A717 with the AT&T logo over them. They are respectively candybar and clamshell but both are slim for their form factor.

Measuring just 8.9mm in thickness, the A727 is one of the slimmest HSDPA capable phones. Among its features we can noticed microSD memory slot, 1.9” 220×176 pixels display and Stereo Bluetooth Audio support. Its camera is only 1.3-megapixel though.

The clamshell A717 is very similar to the M610 which Sprint PCS offers. In the 12.9mm thick body it packs 2.3 inches QVGA internal display, 2-megapixel camera and microSD slot. Just like the A727, this one is also a HSDPA phone.

Thank you Tuolumne.

Finally, T-Mobile launched the stripped-down version of the Sidekick 3, called the Sidekick ID which comes at half the price - $99 instead of $199 for the 3. The simple ID has slightly changed design and exchangeable color faceplates. When it comes to functionality, the little brother loses the camera, Bluetooth and memory card. So basic, it remains a messaging device with swiveling display, unique form-factor, full QWERTY and internet browser. Expected availability is April 25th.
