Samsung Guru200 is a new low-end dull looking cell phone for the Indian market.

Like almost any handset in India, it comes with an FM tuner, but not just an ordinary one: it also sports radio recording feature.

Wow? Ok, I'm done; don't know what else to tell you. Just note that Guru200 costs Rs. 2,999, or about $71.

Samsung Korea has launched two new Anycall phones, called the SCH-W420 and SPH-W4200.

Both phones have the same large touchscreens with haptic feedback, which allows users to communicate through 22 types of vibrations. Other features include 3.2" screen, DMB TV, 2Mpix camera and more.

The handsets will be available in pink and white colors for 700.

Bell Canada is ready to release two cool cell phones in the near future.

• The first is the Samsung Ace, a simple but good looking handset, which features dual-band GSM and EV-DO connectivity, Windows Mobile 6 Standard OS, 1.3Mpix camera, and a microSD slot. It should be available on May 12 for an unknown price.
• The second phone is the LG Vantage, a stylish and touchscreen slider with a 2Mpix camera, Bluetooth, and a microSD slot supporting up to 4GB of additional storage.

Samsung has launched its mid-end SGH-i200 smartphone, announced back at the MWC show in Barcelona earlier this year.

Below you can find a list of its features. The phone should first become available across Europe in June 2008, followed by other regions.

Samsung i200 specifications:

• Operating System: Windows Mobile 6.1;
• Band: GSM 900/1800/1900MHz, WCDMA 2100MHz;
• Data: GPRS/EDGE/UMTS/HSDPA;
• Size: 116.

Verizon has finally officially announced the Samsung Glyde smartphone for its CDMA network.

In fact, the phone needs no introduction, we know enough about it. It is a CDMA slider that has a 2Mpix camera with flash and autofocus, GPS, full range of Bluetooth profiles, microSD slot, a true HTML browser, and no support for VCAST TV service (like anyone cares).

The new Samsung SCH-430, most likely the successor to the Samsung SCH-410, has just been approved by the FCC for Verizon.

Specifications are kept secret, but we definitely shouldn't expect much from a phone that comes for free with a 2 year agreement.

FCC unveiled the Samsung i770, the global version of the i760, bound for Verizon.

We've first heard about it back in November, some of you might recall.

The phone comes with GSM and CDMA radios, as well as WiFi and Bluetooth, and probably even HSDPA. That's fine.

Just one observation: they could really change the design, if you ask me.
