Design and Build
The Samsung X490 was crafted to fit comfortably in the palm of your hand, boasting dimensions of 90 x 47 x 24 mm and weighing just 86 grams. Its compact size and clam-shell design made it both pocket-friendly and durable, grabbing the attention of users who preferred flip phones for their practical design, which protected the keypad and screen when closed. The Mini-SIM slot catered to the standard of the period, and its availability in two distinct colors, White Silver and Indigo Blue, added a touch of personalization to suit user preferences.
