Samsung plans on becoming the leading mobile phone maker in the world, and has already managed to make a first step in this direction by topping Nokia in the smartphone area.

Of course, Apple is still in the lead there, but the Cupertino-based company might soon fall behind the South Korean giant, considering the amount of high-end devices that the latter might release in the near future.

A series of leaked details on what Samsung has in store for its users for the next few months have just made an appearance into the wild, showing a nice series of Android, bada and Windows Phone handsets set to land on shelves soon.

The list, available courtesy of Samfirmare and telefonino (via), shows that the phone maker has in plan a number of 9 devices running under Google's OS, along with a series of other smartphones, such as three bada handsets and a Windows Phone.

Samsung I9250 (W48), Samsung I9220 (W43), Samsung I9210 (W48), Samsung I8150 (W40), Samsung B5510 (W41), Samsung S5610 (W42), Samsung GT-S5360 (W42), Samsung P6200 (W44) and Samsung P6210 (W44) are all Android devices from the company.

Samsung S8600 Wave III (W47), Samsung S7250 Wave M, and Samsung S5380 (W47) are said to come to the market with the company's bada OS on board, while the Samsung i8350 Omnia W should run under Windows Phone.

Samsung I9250 (W48), Samsung I9220 (W43), and Samsung I9210 (W48) all appear to be high-end Android phones with screens large than 4 inches, the first two with HD displays, and the last one with a WVGA SuperAMOLED screen.

Apparently, Samsung I9250 (W48) might arrive on the market with Ice Cream Sandwich on board, which means that it could very well prove to be the Nexus Prime handset that was rumored a few times before.

Samsung P6200 (W44) and Samsung P6210 (W44) are Android tablet PCs, while the rest of phones running under Google's OS should be mid to lower end devices.

Samsung S8600 Wave III and the other two bada phones should prove quite appealing as well, it seems, with bada 2.0 on board, and screens of 4 to 3.2-inches (Wave M might sport a 3.5'' display).

As for the Windows Phone device, it is expected to boast a 3.7-inch screen, a 1GHz application processor, and a 5-megapixel photo snapper on the back.
