The Samsung Genio Qwerty, also tagged as the CorbyTXT or the B3210 handset, sports a solid bar design. It comes from Samsung's famous range of fashionable and communication-focused handsets that include the Samsung B5310 Corby PRO. It tips the scale at 94 grams and has the full measurements of 112 x 59.6 x 12.9 millimetres. This handset is equipped with a changeable cover feature that users may utilise to alter the colour of its casing to reflect their personalities. Users may also access this handset's pre-installed ringtones in polyphonic and MP3 formats and assign them for text and call alerts.

This mobile phone flaunts a TFT screen that measures 55.88 millimetres and displays picture wallpapers and screensavers in 262,000 colours on 176 x 144 pixels. Notably, this mobile phone has full QWERTY keys which make speedier texting or dialing possible.

This handset supports quad band reach and functions over GSM 850, GSM 900, GSM 1800, and GSM 1900 networks. Its quad band support makes this communication device an ideal companion for users who travel frequently, but its network reach depends highly on its user's service provider.

Exploring the World Wide Web is hassle-free with its pre-installed WAP 2.0 XHTML and HTML Internet browser. Similarly, this handset enables its users to connect compatible gadgets and share data using the USB option. This mobile phone also offers Bluetooth with A2DP connectivity which makes file sharing with laptops, scanners, printers, mobile phones and personal computers possible, even at a 10-metre distance. Powered by GPRS and EDGE, the Samsung Genio Qwerty promises faster rates of Internet downloading or file sharing.

Users may compose, send or receive SMS or text and MMS or multimedia messages with this handset. Its Internet connectivity feature also makes e-mail access possible. Through its instant messaging support, users may also chat with their contacts using this handy gadget. Users of the Samsung Genio Qwerty will find this handset a reliable scheduling, planning or tasking assistant with its array of virtual organiser tools. This mobile phone functions as a calendar, an alarm clock and a calculator, and allows users to view data in widely accepted file formats such as MSWord, MSExcel and PDF.

An integrated 2-Megapixel camera will keep photo buffs entertained. This built-in photo snapping tool comes complete with flash and zoom imaging features to achieve desired photo outputs with precision and clarity. Moreover, it has a photo editor through which users may tweak their pictures and showcase their creativity. Snapshots may be stored in a Photo Album facility for later viewing. In addition, this camera works as a video recorder that supports widely accepted video formats. Footages may also be played and enjoyed on this handset's display screen. This integrated camera also has a dedicated photo capturing button while its display screen functions as a viewfinder for photo and video shoots.

The Samsung Genio Qwerty also makes music listening enjoyable for music-lovers. It has an onboard music player that supports MP3, AAC and WMA formats. A FM Radio RDS facility can also be relied on to offer users an alternative listening experience while allowing them to receive information on the latest hits, weather reports, current events and sports news from their favourite radio stations. Another fun way to keep users entertained is this handset's games selection in Java format. Gamers may also opt to download games from the Internet and enjoy them on this mobile phone.

Users may store contact lists and details, photos, videos, music files and other data in this mobile phone's internal memory of 40 Megabytes. To accommodate more data, this handset also offers support for expanded memory capacity of up to 8 Gigabytes through a MicroSD memory card.

Unsatisfied users have observed that this mobile phone's QWERTY keyboard seems cramped. Other users also find that this handset's screen displays colours that appear to be washed out. For others, this handset's lack of Wi-Fi support is a disappointment.
