Samsung today got a jump on Mobile World Congress with the launch of its UltraTOUCH s8300 slider phone. The new handset features HSDPA, UMTS, EDGE/GPRS 3G, a 2.8-inch touch screen display, and an 8MP camera.
Samsung executive vice president JK Shin said in a release issued today:
With its refined contoured design, Samsung UltraTOUCH is our elegant full-touch hero at this year's Mobile World Congress, proving again that Samsung's mobile phones are at the forefront of style. We are committed to strengthening our portfolio of full-touch phones by introducing a variety of handsets to suit every lifestyle. UltraTOUCH leads this portfolio as our most iconic, high-end phone and will further enhance Samsung's leadership in the premium full-touch market.
The UltraTOUCH is 12.7-millimeters thick, features a 3x4 sliding keypad, and has an anti-smudge/anti-scratch screen. The handset also features geo-tagging, 30fps VGA video capture, and a "groovy" music player.
No word on availability or when--if ever--the thing will actually come to the States.
