Now it’s time for a girly, made-for-girls mobile phone, and that’s what Samsung CLEOappears to be. This phone is launched in Canada and will be exclusively offered via Bell Mobility and its subsidiary Solo Mobile.

Samsung Canada says that the CLEO can “easily be mistaken for a make-up compact” and I have to totally agree with this. For the moment, the fancy phone can only be bought from Solo, for as low as $100. Bell will sell the CLEO for $49.95 with a contract agreement for 3 years, while the handset’s full price is of $300.
