14 DAY TRIAL // Samsung has just unveiled recently a new line of 3G mobile phones. Part of Samsung's Ultra Edition design-led range, these stylish mobiles expel the myth that 3G handsets have to be cumbersome and heavy. Launched this week at the Louvre Museum in Paris, the Ultra Edition 3G range includes the world's slimmest 3G mobile handset ever, the Ultra Edition 8.4 (Z370).
Leading this classy collection is the Ultra Edition 13.8 (Z720), the world's first and thinnest HSDPA slide-up mobile which fits in at a slim 13.8 mm. This technology powerhouse comes packed with a 3 megapixel camera and auto focus for taking photos wherever they are needed. It also includes a sizeable 2.1'' QVGA display and supports WAP 2.0 and HTML browsing. In order to fully enjoy all of the benefits of 3G, the Ultra Edition 13.8 also includes a second camera for video calling; it also features document viewer, voice memo and PIM.
Possessing an ultra slim depth of only 8.4 mm and weighing a mere 71 grams, the Ultra Edition 8.4 (Z370) is the world's slimmest 3G handset and now sets the standard against which all others can be compared. This mobile houses a large landscape 1.93'' TFT display with dual 2 megapixel and VGA cameras, making it the perfect accessory for those that love 3G video calling. Capable of playing music with multiple audio formats and JAVA-enabled games, this connected candy bar is perfect for entertainment. It also includes document viewer, speaker phone, micro-SD card slot and hosts PIM functions.
Finally, completing the collection is the distinctive Ultra Edition 11.8 (Z620), the world's slimmest HSDPA phone. This stylish device clearly fits into the slim stakes with a profile of just 11.8mm. Key features include an embedded rotating 2 megapixel camera with 3x zoom that is capable of taking photos from all directions and which can double as a video camera to shoot up to an hour of QVGA recording. The 2.3'' QVGA display makes this handset perfect for viewing multimedia content and also doubles as a window for photo caller ID.
