Samsung prepping loads of high-end touch phones in 2009
Thirteen new Samsung touchscreen phones have been spotted at a dealer"s event held by the company in Amsterdam. The two most exciting new phones include a new version of the Omnia HD running on Windows Mobile 6.5 plus their first Android phone.
At this time, there are very few details available coming mostly from a blurry shot taken at the event. It"s not really clear how the new version Omnia HD upgrades the currently announced one, except for the fact that it will run on Winodws Mobile (if that can be counted as an upgrade that is).
A new Omnia HD?
The first Samsung Android phone reportedly bears a resemblance to the Samsung Blue Earth phone, at least in looks. It is expected to have a 5 megapixel camera.
The alleged Android phone
The thirteen phones populate all the four categories of the Samsunbg portfolio - S for style, I for infotainment, M for multimedia and B for business. The Android device falls under the premium multimedia category whit the new Omnia HD positioned just above it.
Additions to Samsungs touch line up
The other eleven phones are touchscreen handsets with various, yet unknown features including two with slide-out QWERTY keyboards. All of these phones are yet to be announced officially and we"ll have more details when that happens.
