Top 10 Samsung Genio Accessories

The Samsung Genio range of handsets are proving to be incredibly phones. Whether it’s the Genio Touch with its simple touch  based menu system or the Genio QWERTY with a physical keyboard, Samsung have packed in a lot of features considering their small size.

If you’ve got one you’ll want to make the most of it, but with so many different mobile phone cases, covers, Bluetooth Headphones and other accessories available choosing the right ones can be quite difficult, so to help you out here’s a list of our top 10 accessories for the Samsung Genio Touch & Samsung Genio QWERTY.

1. Genio Fashion Jackets

One of the great thinks about the Genio handsets is that the back covers are interchangeable. You’ll probably have got a couple in the box when you purchased your phone. If you want to brighten your phone up or give it your personal stamp, all you need to do is buy a new fashion jacket and clip it on to your phone. Genio Covers are available in a wide range of colours and designs and you can change them as often as you like.

2. 8GB Micro SDHC Memory Card

As with all Samsung the internal storage capacity is quite limited on the Genio range of handsets, with just 50MB available to store all your pictures, music and videos – that’s the equivalent of 8 MP3 files or 25 photos or 3 minutes of video. That’s not a lot. By using a SanDisk 8GB Memory Card with the Samsung Genio will allow you to store up to 1500 songs, 8000 photos and over 9 hours of video on your phone. An 8GB card is the largest memory card that is supported by the Samsung Genio.

3. FlexiShield Skin for Samsung Genio

If you want a case for your Genio and don’t want a leather case, or prefer a case that is a bit more practical then a FlexiShield Skin will probably suit you better. FlexiShield Skins for the Genio are thicker and tougher than standard Silicone Cases and will certainly give your phone more bounce if you drop it! It has a non slip feel to it and covers all of the back of the handset, leaving the camera free for you to take your photos.

4. Samsung Genio Desk Genie

The Desk Genie is a clever desk stand that will hold just about any phone or portable device. There are no awkward clips or docks, you simply place your Genio on the angled pad and it sticks to it! It has a special anti slip pad that will keep your devices exactly where you put them. The angle of the stand is perfect for reading emails and text messages, browsing through your photos and watching videos. As a bonus, the stand also has 2 USB slots so you can charge & sync your phone at the same time.

5. InvisibleSHIELD for Genio Touch

The InvisibleSHIELD is more than just a screen protector. Not only does it cover the front screen of your Genio Touch, it also includes a tough protective film for the back of your phone. Installation takes a little bit longer than a normal screen protector, but the end result is well worth it. It covers almost all of your phone and will withstand the toughest of scrapes. The InvisibleSHIELD has a matte finish with a non slip feel to it. It is great at repelling fingerprints and reducing reflections. As the InvisibleSHIELD doesn’t add any extra bulk to your phone, you can use in in conjuction with most other Cases and Skins.

6. Samsung Genio Battery

The Samsung Genio is a great social handset that offers many ways to stay in touch with people -calling, texting, emailing, facebook, instant messaging and more. If you’ve got a busy social life you won’t want to be without. If you’re out and about all day and know that you’re going to be on your phone a lot, then then best accessory you can get will be a spare battery.

7. Samsung WEP-350 Bluetooth Headset

The WEP-350 is one of the worlds smallest Bluetooth Headsets. At just under 6mm thin, it’s lightweight, comfortable and easy to use. It pairs quickly and easily with the Samsung Genio and can be charged using a compact charging stand. Despite it’s small size, the WEP-350 can give you upto 5 hours of talktime or 80 hours of stand by before you’ll need to recharge it. The other great thing about the WEP-350 is the price. It’s currently just under £30 so it won’t break the bank. (subject to change)

8. Samsung Car Charger

Battery life is never great on a touch screen smartphone so a car charger is a worthwhile investment. The genuine Samsung Car charger will work in both 12v and 24v vehicles (Cars, Lorries and Trucks).

9. Clip & Talk Solar Car Kit

Solar power has been making an appearance in more and more mobile phone accessories over the last year or so and there is no better accessory to make use of the sun than a Bluetooth Car Kit – after all it sits on your windscreen all day, so it makes sense for it to be charging at the same time. The Clip and Talk range has always been incredibly popular and offered great value for money. The Clip & Talk Solar builds on the success of the standard models but adds a couple of new features – Multi-Point to let you connect two phones at the same time and a solar charging panel to keep it charged without the need to have wires trailing across your dashboard.

10. Samsung SBH-650 Bluetooth Headphones

The Samsung SBH-650 lets you listen to music in stereo and answer calls over a bluetooth connection. The main unit is designed to be worn around your neck or clip on to your clothes. It has music playback controls built in, so changing track is extremely quick and you don’t have to touch your phone either. The SBH-650 includes a pair of earphones and will work with any standard 3.5mm headphones too.

This isn’t the full range of accessories, just a selection of the ones that we think do the best job of enhancing your Samsung Genio QWERTY & Samsung Genio Touch. If you’ve not seen the accessory here that’s right for you, then take a look at all of our Samsung Genio Accessories.
