Apparently, Samsung is planning to launch its new SPH-W5000 pretty soon. The phone's photo was posted on the company's website, and I must say it looks great. And now let's take a look at its features:
Samsung SPH-W5000 specs:

• Dimensions: 100.4 x 50.5 x 13.5 mm;
• Weight: 96 g;
• WAP/MMS;
• Triband GSM (900/1800/1900MHz), WCDMA, HSDPA 3.

Samsung has finally announced its i900 Omnia. We knew about its features long before its announcement, but let's recap them anyway:

• Networks: quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE + HSDPA 7.2Mbps;
• Connectivity: USB, stereo Bluetooth (A2DP), Wi-Fi;
• Display: 3.2" WQVGA (240×400 pixels) touchscreen;
• Camera: 5Mpix with auto-focus, ace and smile detection, auto-panorama shots;
• OS/UI: Windows Mobile 6.

Unlike what we seen previously, this new photo of the Samsung SGH-i900 is clear and finally gives us the full idea of how the device looks.

While the phone offers some decent specifications like a 240 x 400 display, 5Mpix camera, 16GB of onboard memory, HSDPA, GPS, WiFi, Bluetooth 2.0, we somehow have a feeling it will cost much more than we think...

According to a leaked presentation from Verizon, the carrier will apparently be offering the Samsung i770 and Treo 800w smartphones in the near future.

• The Samsung i770 is an upgrade to the i760 model, which doubles the memory, has a better 2Mpix camera and runs Windows Mobile 6.1 OS.
  
• Regarding the Treo 800w, it will be available in Q3 2008.

A couple of promo shots of the T-Mobile's Samsung T229 phone are now available.

There's nothing special about this phone - a simple quad-band GSM/EDGE red-painted clamshell with two screens, Bluetooth, and a 0(or 1).3Mpix camera.

You can get it now for almost free with a 2-year contract.

Shortly after the release of the U900 Soul, Samsung has launched another handset in the U-series, the new U800 Soulb ("soul bee") candybar in Korea.

The new phone should be available in June in Germany, followed by other regions in the near future.

• 9.9mm (.4") in thick;
• 2" QVGA display with a new thematic UI;
• 3Mpix camera with Power LED flash;
• 1GB of internal storage;
• microSD card slot;
• 3.

• 3Mpix camera;
• 2,4" QVGA TFT display;
