It’s also has the biggest AMOLED screen in the mobile business so far, which means you should definitely give it a try if you get your hands on it.



For music lovers and hard-core music aficionados, Samsung is introducing a new line of Beat phones with two handsets: The Samsung Beat Disc, left, and the Samsung Beat DJ. Both feature AMOLED touchscreen displays, Bang & Olufsen-powered speakers and an application for recognizing, tagging and recommending music. The Beat Disc has a slide-out keyboard; the Beat DJ has an application that lets you add voice and sound effects (like scratching) to your tunes. Both are quad-band cell phones(GSM) that support high-speed (HSDPA) data networks.



And finally, for those who wants a cool looking phone, you have the LG-GD900. The LG-GD900 looks like a fairly typical touch-screen phone when closed, but its slide-down numeric keypad is translucent and glows when opened. It’s a cool design innovation on a quad-band 3G (HSDPA) phone due to ship this spring.
