Samsung could not have missed being present at this year's edition of CTIA Wireless (1 - 3 April, Las Vegas), hence it came with some of its high-end mobile phones. It now showcases them for the American or non-American public present in the Nevadian city of lights, casinos
and other things like these that usually go hand in hand with a rich lifestyle.
Rich is a word that stands well besides Samsungs' phones exhibited in Las Vegas, if we think about both their features and looks.
Samsung Soul U900 (the slider Soul, because there's a clamshell too, namely Soul G400) is one of the cutting-edge handsets that currently wow CTIA Wireless visitors. The phone comes in a slim (0.5 inch or 12.9 mm) and stylish metallic case in which it packs advanced features like a 5 Megapixel camera with auto focus, image stabilizer, flash and video recording, 7.2 Mbps HSDPA connectivity, a 2.2 inch display with QVGA (240 x 320) resolution and 16 million colors, Magical Touch navigation pad, customizable Graphic Interface, Bang & Olufsen ICEpower audio technology and so on.
Samsung G810 is also a high-end phone that deserves a lot of consideration, as it's said to be a (future) direct competitor for Nokia N96. G810's highlights include a 5 Megapixel camera with 3x optical zoom, auto focus and Xenon flash, Symbian 9.2 S60 3rd Edition, GPS, Wi-Fi and many other advanced features.
Another hot Samsung is the miCoach Adidas, a phone made in collaboration with the famous German sportswear company. miCoach is designed for sporty users and brings several sport-orientated features (including a "personal coach"), as well as cool multimedia capabilities, all wrapped in a very sleek device.
Samsung F480 and F400 are also presented in Las Vegas, the first being a slim touchscreen candybar with a 5 Megapixel camera, while the F400 is a fancy slider specially created to offer the best music experience.
Although all looks good on the Samsung CTIA Wireless front, there's some bad news for US mobile enthusiasts: Samsung gave no details about the future availability of the mentioned phones (for North America), and there are some chances the handsets will never be officially released there. Which is, most definitely, not fair.
