Samsung shows latest Ultra-edition handset
Samsung Electronics
will present the latest model in its popular Ultra edition range of cell phones
at the Mobile
World Congress exhibition in Barcelona next week.
The phone, dubbed "Soul," is a slider-type handset that with an eye-catching
touch panel under the display. The panel displays navigation icons that change
according to the current application being run on the handset. For example,
in camera mode icons such as zoom and brightness appear while music player functions
appear in music mode.
The quad-band GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) handset supports
data downloads of up to 7.2M bps (bits per second) over HSDPA (High Speed Downlink
Packet Access) networks and also has Bluetooth 2.0 wireless networking.
Other features include a 5-megapixel camera with face detection and image stabilizer,
FM radio with RDS (Radio Data System) and a music system based on technology
from Bang & Olufsen.
The phone will be available worldwide and hit Europe in April.
Samsung's Ultra line has proved a hit with style-conscious consumers. All phones
in the range emphasize thinness and the new Soul handset is no different at
12.9 millimeters thick. But it's nowhere near as slim as the Ultra 5.9 handset
that Samsung unveiled this time last year in Barcelona. The candy bar phone,
as the name suggests, is just 5.9 millimeters thick.
