The T-Mobile website has just shown a new "coming soon" page about the Samsung Trace T519. This future addition to the T-Mobile phones is a Samsung X820 clone, with the same incredible 6.9 mm thickness (half the one of Motorola's RAZR V3).

Samsung continues the latest trend on the market, the brandable name strategy, which many of the mobile phone manufacturers have used on RAZR, Katana, Fusic, Chocolate and other branded devices.

The phone will be a quad-band compatible, with Internet connectivity through GPRS and EDGE. Other features include: A2DP profile for stereo music, Bluetooth 1.2, USB, microSD card slot, media player with support for MP3/WMA/AAC file formats and a 1.3 megapixel camera.

A release date hasn't been made public by T-Mobile yet, but the quad-band handset will be released only on the USA market.
