Those looking to up their fashion will like Samsung’s new BlackJack IIs in pink and blue. These are obviously geared toward fashionable geek girls and men who are ultra secure in their manhood. Or maybe those just looking for something different. These new models feature white fronts with color-coordinated keys and girlly designs on the back. They’ll cost you $99 each on contract.

The Samsung TL9 camera is definitely inspired by your dashboard, which is kinda cool. Otherwise it’s pretty ho-hum as far as camera specs. Some specs include: 10-megapixel resolution, a 2.7 inch LCD, 5x optical zoom, maximum ISO of 1600, and Dual Image Stabilization.

Interestingly, it features MP3/PMP capability. The two empty/full analog gauges show the remaining battery life and memory storage. The Samsung TL9 is priced at $280. Perfect for those who are only capable of reading gauges and have been confused by every other camera that ever was.

Samsung took the wraps today off several new digital cameras for the latter half of 2008. These include the new  SL310w, SL201, TL9 and TL34HD, all available in September and priced around $230, $170, $280 and $330, respectively.

Leading the pack is the TL34HD, coming in at 14.7-megapixels and boasting a Schneider lens yielding a 28mm wide-angle focal length with 3.6x optical zoom. The TL9 does 10-megapixels, the SL310W 13.6-megapixels and the SL201 10-megapixels. Full details of all four are found after the jump.

All of the mobile phone makers want to grab their share of the touchscreen mobile phone market. This has resulted in a slew of would be iPhone killers hitting the market and so far not one of the iPhone me too’s has really made much of a dent.

When Samsung introduced its sprint exclusive Instinct handset it even looked a lot like the iPhone and many wondered if it would be another disappointment. It only took a few weeks after the Instinct’s introduction to see that it was a hit with Sprint saying it was breaking sales records and due to its popularity the device was hard to find.

Camcorders have steadily come down in price to the point where they are nearly disposable. Many low cost camcorders produced today record video digitally in formats that are compatible and easy to upload to services like YouTube online. Samsung unveiled its latest camcorder today aimed at YouTube users called the SC-MX20.

The camcorder features a 680K pixel CCD sensor and can record video at a resolution of 720 x 480 with good color and clarity. The SC-MX20 has a 34x optical zoom lens to let you get up close from afar. Samsung integrates optical image stabilization and Face Detection into the camera as well.

Projectors are a great way to share something with lots of people at the same time, be it boring presentations for work or the latest Blu-ray film you have added to your collection. Samsung today announced a pair of new DLP projectors that are aimed at home and office use.

The Samsung A400 projector has a native WXGA resolution of 1280 x 768, a contrast ratio of 2500:1 and 2000 ANSI lumens of brightness. Connectivity options include RGB, HDMI, composite/component, S-video and monitor out. The A400 weighs 9.9 pounds and it includes a theater mode that optimizes color.

Samsung released the Samsung SGH-D780 Gold Plated Edition, now the official phone of Russia’s Olympic team. The D780 is a dual SIM phone, allowing you to have 2 GSM networks active at once without having to reboot your phone.

Some of the features of the Samsung D780 are: 2.0-megapixel camera, 2.1-inch QVGA TFT, FM Radio, Bluetooth 2.0, USB 2.0, 1200 mAh battery and a microSD slot supporting up to 2GB. The phone is already available in Russia of course.

We have talked about the Samsung Instinct before here at SlipperyBrick. This week Sprint announced that the phone would be available on June 20. The price for the device will be $129.99 after a 2-year contract and a $100 mail-in rebate.

The Instinct was originally pegged at a price of $199; Sprint surely felt pressure to drop the price after the iPhone 3G came in at $199. The Instinct looks very similar to the original iPhone, though it adds a couple buttons to answer and disconnect calls to the front.

Samsung announced today a new slim external DVD writer similar to the pictured SE-T084L. The new model is the SE-T084M and it will be pricing for around $150.

The Samsung SE-T084M is part of the company’s line of TruDirect optical disc drives. This particular portable DVD writer features 8x DVD+R and DVD-R writing, 6X DVD+R and -R Dual Layer writing, and 5X DVD-RAM writing. It is done in the slot-in style for disc loading.

Samsung is rolling out a “green phone”, the W510, made out of bio-plastic, which is a natural material from corn. Therefore, making one of these phones won’t pollute as much as manufacturing a typical cell phone would. The Korean market will be getting it this month.

Samsung also unveiled another green phone, the F268, which has an alarm function that alerts you every time it is fully charged. That way, you won’t waste any power by leaving it plugged in. It also sports accessories which don’t contain any BFRs (Brominated Flame Retardant) or PVC.

For lots of workers that are in harsh environments on a daily basis what they need in a mobile phone isn’t slick touch screen technology and a cool looking device. What this group of users wants is a very durable phone that still offers the features you expect on modern handsets.

Samsung has announced a new handset that provides all this type of user should need called the Z400. The Z400 is a Sprint Nextel exclusive handset and is designed to meet military MIL-STD 810F specifications for dust, shock and vibration resistance. The handset is covered in a rubberized coating to help with grip and reduce scratching.

Is this the best Sprint and Samsung phone ever? Many of us think so. And it just got better. Thanks to the unveiling of the iPhone 3G with it’s $199 price tag, Sprint rethought a few things.

Like offering an extra $100 mail-in rebate which levels the playing field with AT&T. Apparently, current customers can buy the phone without renewing their 2-year contract, which is good news for those who want to switch carriers.

Samsung has announced the world’s fastest MLC-based 256GB SATA solid state drive which boasts some amazingly fast read speeds of 200 mps and 160 mps write speeds. It’s also the thinnest and largest capacity drive with a SATA II interface. Salivating yet?

It measures just 9.5mm thick. No pricing info is available yet, but expect it to be expensive. Should you be able to afford one, they’ll be available this September, with a 1.8-inch version coming in Q4.

The Touchwiz a.k.a the SGH-F480, is obviously an iPhone wannabe from Samsung, featuring an improved and super user friendly UI controlled with your finger, and a 5Mp AF camera with auto focus and a CMOS video lens.

It sports 8GB or memory, and even an FM radio. The F480 makes use of a new and unique img4.gif UI, with specially designed widgets to customise and personalise the use of your phone. It’s a slick looking phone. Talk time is 3hrs. It will hit the European market shortly. Not sure when we’ll see this in the U.S.

At CES back in 2007 there were several demonstrations of 60Hz TVs next to 120Hz TVs. The difference in image quality achieved through going from 60 to 120Hz was very impressive. Samsung wasn’t content to sit on its 120Hz laurels and has announced the first Blue Phase LCD panel.

Whereas 120Hz sets on the current market use overdrive circuits to achieve 120Hz, the Blue Phase panel will not require any overdrive circuits. Samsung also says that the design is extremely cost efficient thanks to not needing liquid crystal alignment layers like today’s LCD panels do.
