Pocket-lint are reporting that Vodafone UK have confirmed they’ll be carrying the Samsung F490, the keyboard-free version of the F700v that’s already exclusive to the network. With HSDPA, a 3.2-inch 240 x 432 touchscreen and 5-megapixel camera with flash, the F490 has been hailed as a significant iPhone rival (although reviews have suggested it fares poorly in a comparison with the Apple handset’s multimedia, while the camera lacks the autofocus of other competitor, LG’s Viewty).

Nonetheless, Vodafone’s high-speed HSDPA network in the UK has been praised as one of the most comprehensive, and F490 users will undoubtedly put that 16:9 widescreen display to good use browsing the web and watching streaming media. The handset is just 11.8mm thick and has Bluetooth and haptic feedback, together with a microSD card slot to augment the 130MB of onboard memory. It’ll be the first touchscreen Samsung cellphone in the UK to feature the new, TouchWiz GUI.
