* CNET UK * Crave * Mobile Phones Photos: Samsung's latest phones, straight from Korea By Andrew Lim on 3 October 2006, 1:35pm 16 pages * 1 * 2 * 3 * 4 * ... * 16 * Next » Mobile Phones While Crave was out in South Korea with Samsung last week, we saw a presentation of some of their latest mobile phones. In 2005, Samsung launched around 140 phones and over the next year it looks like it's going to make a whole bunch more. Right now Samsung is the world's third largest mobile phone manufacturer and is making technological advancements at an incredible pace. This is a selection of some of its latest handsets, some of which will come to the UK.

When I saw this phone, i began to doubt, what is it? Is it really a phone? On first sight, it is just a plain bar phone. But if you hold it in your hand and study carefully, you will discover that it is also a flip phone. The outer keyboard and display can be unfolded, and then another 2.8 inch large display appears, 2 seperate keypads beside the display just like keys of PSP. And friend, it also has powerful functions such as dual sim dual standby, Analog TV, magical voice.

Other then this unique feature, the other features of the Cool8800C are fairly typical and include a 2.2″ display, MP3/MP4 player, FM Radio, alarm clock, and 3 games.
You can buy this phone for $140, but because this model does not work on the 900/1800MHz networks, it is not suited for the North American markets.
