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.
Fujitsu keeps the Centrino 2 party going with six new LifeBooks
It looks like the Centrino 2 train just keeps on rolling, and Fujitsu's now hopped on board with six new LifeBooks in tow, including a pair of convertible tablets. That latter duo consists of the enterprise class LifeBook T5010, the successor to Fujitsu's T4220, and the slightly less security minded LifeBook T1010, both of which boast 13.3-inch displays and all the usual Centrino 2-related goodies. On the non-convertible front, Fujitsu has the 15.4-inch LifeBook A6210 (pictured above), the Centrino 2 vPro-supporting LifeBook E8420, and a pair of thin-and-light 14-inchers, the LifeBook S6520 and LifeBook S7220, each of which weigh in around four pounds. From the looks of it, the whole lot is available now, with the exception of the vPro editions of the LifeBook T5010 and LifeBook E8420, which are set to follow in 30 days.
