Samsung F700

Leading Samsung's Ultra Edition charge is the F700, which boasts a full touch screen, slide-out QWERTY keyboard and touch pad technology. The F700's stunning 2.78" color screen with 440x240 pixels provides users with the ultimate viewing experience, such as viewing photos taken with the phone's top-of-the line 5 megapixel camera. With 7.2 Mbps High Speed Data Packet Access (HSDPA) capabilities, the handset is ideal for watching videos, browsing the Internet or catching up on e-mail. Additional features include Bluetooth® and microSD(TM) memory card slot.

Samsung F510

The F510 is Samsung's latest mobile TV phone. Similar to the innovative design of the F500, the F510 comes together with DVB-H function to fuel the consumer demand for mobile TV. The unique swivel design has full handset functionality on one side that can be rotated to reveal a 2.4 inch wide screen on the back, allowing users to quickly and easily transform their handset into a multimedia viewing device. The handset also has a PMP function with a built-in memory of 410MB and features a microSD(TM) memory card slot for extra capacity. It is the first phone to support the Digital internet video express (DivX) codec, allowing users to view a large array of video content including Moving Picture Experts Group-4 (MPEG-4), H. 264, WMV and AVI files.

Samsung F500

Samsung's F500 is the ultimate personal multimedia device with a smart design and cutting-edge features, including dual LCD faces - one side is specific to making phone calls while the other contains a large screen and dedicated multimedia controls. The unique swivel design allows the screen to rotate away from the controls to adjust the viewing or form a stand to place the device down on a stationary surface. The F500 is a HSDPA-enabled phone and features a PMP function with wide 2.4" screen as well as a 2.0 mega-pixel camera.
