The Samsung GT-B7610, known by model identifiers GT-B7610OKAXEE and GT-B7610OKMXEE, is a smartphone that redefined user experience at the time of its launch. Released in 2009, it stands out for its unique form factor and an array of features that appealed to both business users and casual consumers.

One of the primary characteristics of the GT-B7610 is its sliding QWERTY keyboard, which enhances typing efficiency and comfort.
