Samsung has released a video to explain the difference between the AMOLED and Super AMOLED displays, and also how they obtained the desired results.

Basically, during the manufacturing stages, with the Super AMOLED display, less materials are needed. Which translates into better brightness and a thinner display, which helps in creating slim phones. The Super AMOLED displays will also be available to other manufacturers to build their own smartphones.

Most of the recent models launched by Samsung feature a touchscreen display. This trend was confirmed once more with the new Caliber R860. Featuring a 3.2″ touchscreen display with the resolution of 420 x 240 pixels, it also has a 3 Megapixel photocamera with flash.

It also supports the 3G networks, the internal memory can be expanded with microSD cards, and also present are the TouchWiz interface, the GPS, the social network integration, bluetooth and a battery that has the duration of 4.5 hours in conversation and 300 hours in standby.

The price in the USA is set at $250.

The Samsung Wave S8500, the first Samsung device featuring Bada and presented on the Mobile World Congress 2010, will be the first device to have the latest version of Picsel File viewer, the famous mobile application that offers supports to Microsoft Office files (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) and Adobe PDF.

Some of the features on the latest version of Picsel File Viewer include the zoom and fast scrolling, multiple visualization, continuous scrolling and high-quality visualization.

Here are some specifications for the Samsung Wave S8500: 3.3″ Super AMOLED WVGA display, HSPA connectivity, Wi-Fi, A-GPS, Bluetooth 30.0, Samsung Apps, 5 Megapixel photocamera with autofocus and HD video recording and 1GHz processor.

Samsung has chosen February 14th, Valentine’s Day, as the day to reveal a new mobile phone, probably their first device featuring the Bada OS, during the Mobile World Congress. There are no further information about the device, but it’s official at least that a new device will be launched that day, as Samsung has declared it themselves.

On Feb 14, a new mobile from Samsung is born. See it first in Barcelona.

The announcement doesn’t refer to Bada, but everyone seems sure that Bada will be the main feature. We’ll have to wait and see.

This cellphone was called Samsung Monte S5620 but from now on, the name changes to Samsung Halley Evo. The S5620 is a full touchscreen similar to the Halley, dedicated to the Internet world.

Thanks tot the simple widget interface, Halley Evo allows users to access their favorite social network such as Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, Bebo, the browser and instant messenging services with just one click. It also includes a GPS sensor that is interfaced with Google Latitude, in order to keep the user’s position and geo-tag pictures taken.

Also present are the Wi-Fi, HSDPA connectivity, 3″ screen with 16:9 format and a 3.2 Megapixel photocamera.

Samsung has launched the M100S, the first smartphone from Samsung to feature Android 2.1. Unfortunately, it seems that the launch is restricted to the South Korean market, from March on.

Hoping it’ll approach our markets as well, we’ll list the main features. It has a 3.7″ AMOLED display with WVGA resolution, a 800Mhz processor, Wi-Fi and GPS. Also featured are the 3.5mm jack, 5 megapixel photocamera capable of recording 720p HD Ready videos and with DivX Support. Together with that, the TouchWiz interface and integrated TV, it really makes us hope it’ll be available for other markets as well.

Samsung has announced the arrival of the Samsung Shark line, featuring a very modern design that cannot be mistaken. The first model on the line is the Samsung S5350, a very slim and ergonomic cellphone that has its high point on the social networking applications.

Facebook, MySpace and Bebo are directly accessible from the initial screen, and inside, we can find other applications such as Flickr, Picasa, Photobucket and Youtube. The cellphone measures 115.2 x 46.7 x 14 mm and weighs 92g, features HSDPA connectivity, a 2.2″ display and a 3.2 Megapixel photocamera. Also featured are the FM radio, Bluetooth 2.1, 100 MB of internal memory, expandable up to 16 MB with microSD cards and a 900 mAh battery.

It was almost sure that the Samsung i899 was going to be a device featuring Windows Mobile, but Samsung has instead officially confirmed that the model will be an Android smartphone. The news come directly from Samsung’s official Chinese site.

The technical specifications for the i899 are: CDMA/Ev-DO device with an 3.2″ touchscreen AMOLED display with the resoliution of 320 x 480 pixels, GPS, 3.5mm Jack and WiFi/WAPI connectivity. It also features a 3.2 Megapixel camera with flash and autofocus, and an internal memory of 512 MB, expandable with microSD cards up to 32 GB.

The availability is initially only in China, and no word yet whether the device will be available elsewhere.

After being officially presented, Bada, the new Samsung OS, is now seen again in a few screenshots that show the interface and the main concept behind its development.

Not much more to say for the moment, so we’ll present you those screenshots for you now! Enjoy!

There’s a small market that usually isn’t seen in the mobile phone world: those of the cheaper models. One of the manufacturers that keeps on developing new models for that market range is Samsung, and they bring forward their new Stunt R100.

It’s a cellphone with a candybar device, a 1.7″ display with the resolution of 128 x 160 pixels, with a very simple graphic interface and no photocamera. The price has not been revealed yet, but due to the phone’s very basic specifications, it should be quite cheap.
