Samsung Genio Slide B5310

Samsung Genio Slide B5310 is the phone that is known by so many names. Whatever you want to call it - Samsung Genio Slide B5310, Samsung Genio Pro or Samsung CorbyPro B5310, it's still the same mobile phone that you will love. The reason for the many names is that Samsung decided to name it differently when it was released in the UK and elsewhere. Then, when Vodafone secured the exclusive rights to this model, it decided to rebrand the phone under the Genio Slide name.

For example, T-Mobile released the Samsung i5700 under the new brand name Samsung Galaxy Spica. This practice actually makes it confusing for a lot of people, but there's no stopping the networks from doing this.
