Samsung presents four of its latest cutting-edge mobile phones at the 2008 International Consumer Electronics Show held in Las Vegas these days. After their showcasing,
the handsets will be made available for the U.S. market, to bring the latest Samsung designs and technology to North American users.

Samsung SGH-G800 (or simply G800), the world's first phone that packs a 5 Megapixel camera with 3X optical zoom, is brought by Samsung in the U.S. to the joy of those who desire an advanced multimedia handset with a perfect digital camera. The phone has a classy slider design and its camera is one of the most advanced in the mobile industry, offering advanced features like Wide Dynamic Range (WDR)and face detection. Beside the excellent camera, the handset brings lots of other high-end specifications: HSPDA, EDGE, Bluetooth, professional video editing functions, mobile blogging, Yahoo and Google search and so on.

The second handset that the South Korean company rolls out for the U.S. market is Samsung SGH-i450, a dual slider powerful handset that runs on Symbian S60 3rd Edition. The device is a perfect combination between a music phone and a smartphone, coming with HSPDA connectivity, Ice power audio technology from Bang & Olufsen, touch wheel navigation, OMA DRM / MTP, FM radio and other cool features.

The other two new handsets, Samsung SGH-i620 and Samsung SGH-i780, bring HSPDA and full QWERTY keypads and are both powered by Windows Mobile 6.0. The first device, SGH-i620, offers RSS reader capabilities, music player, podcasting and a 2 Megapixel built-in camera. Samsung SGH-i780 also packs a 2 Megapixel camera and a music player, as well as GPS capabilities and an optical mouse.

All four mobile phones benefit from Samsung's high-quality displays of more than 2 inches and come with appealing designs. There is no word about the handsets' prices yet, nor about the carriers that will offer them for the U.S. consumers, but these details should be revealed pretty soon.
