Samsung's S7220 and S7350 get real
Samsung's S7220 and S7350 are but the sideshows here at Mobile World Congress, but did you really expect anything different when it's up against the 8 megapixel Memoir and the 720p-capable OmniaHD? The Ultra S7220, once known as the Eltz, boasts a 2.2-inch AMOLED display, a 5 megapixel camera (with AutoFocus and LED flash), an accelerometer, FM radio tuner, Bluetooth 2.0 and HSDPA 7.2Mbps support. The Ultra S7350 ups the ante with a 2.6-inch WQVGA LCD, GPS and video recording. No word on pricing or availability on either, but we'll keep our eyes peeled.
Samsung "Eltz" S7220 and "Marcel" leaked, brand-pocalypse now upon us
Eltz? Seriously, Samsung... Eltz? Whatever; we can hope that this'll have a better name by the time it's officially unveiled at MWC -- the Loches became the Ultra Touch S8300, after all -- but in the meantime, let's focus our attention on the claimed 2.4-inch AMOLED display, GPS, 5 megapixel cam, and expandable memory. Amazingly, we suspect this sucker's going to be positioned in the midrange, a thought bolstered by the S8300's incredible specs -- so for anyone hoping to score some decent shooting power without breaking the bank this year, this might just do the trick (assuming you haven't already bought a ZN5, that is). Moving downrange, the rumored Marcel is said to feature a 2 megapixel cam and a less-impressive 2.2-inch display, and should replace the J700 slider -- introduced at MWC last year, coincidentally.
