The BlackJack II’s been in need of a replacement for a while now. Well, here’s the i637 Jack which has just been made official with a 3.2 megapixel camera and video recording, AGPS, WiFi, microSD expansion, 256MB of RAM, triband HSDPA / quadband EDGE, and a QVGA display.

The Jack features a full QWERTY keyboard and will launch with Windows Mobile 6.1 but will be fully upgradeable to 6.5. It will hit stores on May 19 for $99.99 on a new two-year contract after rebate. AT&T’s already showing it off on video below.

The new SCH-W760 looks like a typical midrange slider. It sports a 3 megapixel camera, DMB reception, Bluetooth, and a 2.8-inch AMOLED display. In other words, the usual. It does feature at least one very interesting feature, though.

That would be a front cam sensitive to the infrared spectrum so that you can hold grayscale video calls in complete darkness. Great for faking ghosthunters type scenes and making your own Blair Witch footage. We have no idea why.

Samsung has launched the Alias 2, a dual-flip handset aka the U750, on Verizon with an e-ink display. It displays a different keyboard depending on which way you open the dual-flip, whether you’re making a call or sending an SMS. Flipping it open in portrait will reveal a standard numeric keypad, while opening it the other way will result in full Qwerty.

Some other specs include a 2.6-inch QVGA screen, 2-megapixel camera, and memory card expansion through microSD card alongside Bluetooth, video camera capability and a music player.

Samsung announced the availability of its new Vice for the Canadian market via Bell. The 3G phone features a sliding full QWERTY keyboard with standard number keys that should make texting, emailing, and Facebook easier.

Samsung is planning the launch of new Android phones codenamed Spica and Bigfoot in Q3. Specifically September. Both of these phones will be built on Android OS version 2.0, which is codenamed Donut. Except for the size and shape, both phones have roughly the same specs:

115.7×53x16.3mm, GSM Quad-band, HSDPA 900/1700/2100, 3″ QAVGA LCD display, 3Megapixel Camera, 1500 mAh battery, 100MB + Micro SD slot, USB 2.0, Bluetooth, WiFi, GPS+Compass, OS: Android “donut”, Accelerometer. Supposedly the Samsung Bigfoot will be more of a gaming oriented device, while the Samsung Spica will be an affordably priced mass market device.

There had been some rumors about the Samsung Lucello, a dual slider with a messaging focus, that was set to hit Sprint soon. Well, this device now has an official name and a release date. It’s called the Samsung M550 Exclaim and it’s set to release on Sprint on June 7th.

The interface is all about social networking with a menu that allows instant access to Facebook, MySpace and Google. As phones go, it’ pretty middle-of-the-road, with a 2-megapixel camera, Bluetooth and EVDO Rev 0. The Exclaim will be available in pink and blue flavors.

Typically, when you buy a monitor for your PC you can get silver or black colors. That works just fine for most people, but some want a bit more bling for their desktop and want different colors. Samsung first pioneered its subtle Touch of Color design on its flat screen TVs.

The company has now announced a line of Touch of Color PC LCDs that include two full HD capable models. The line includes the P2070, P2370, and P2370HD LCDs. Both the P2370 models have 1920 x 1080 resolutions for full 1080p content.

Most parents have a camcorder that they use to capture home movies of the kids and family events. Many kids use a camcorder to capture video of friends and themselves doing crazy stunts and generally acting goofy.

Samsung has announced a pair of new camcorders that are more for the parents than for kids looking for a cheap camcorder for YouTube uploads. The camcorders include the SMX-C14 and the SMX-C10. The two units are virtually identical with each offering the same ergonomic design and Touch of Color looks.

The device will appear in other areas as well, though we don’t have release dates yet or even pricing.

MetroPCS is certainly not one of the larger mobile phone providers in the country, but it offers unlimited service for a fixed price. That feature is something that will lure customers from the larger providers in the major cities and areas that the service covers.

Samsung and MetroPCS announced today that a new handset called the Samsung Tint is now available. The big feature of the Tint is that it has removable faceplates and includes both pink and grey faceplates for customization of the device.

Samsung just released three new 240Hz LED TVs, which are competing with LG’s 240Hz LH90 LED TVs. Known as the PAVV 8000, 7000 and 6000 series, these TVs are compatible with YouTube, DLNA, and feature a USB 2.0 port to display both photos and DviX videos from USB flash drives.

The Samsung PAVV 8000 series will be available in 46 and 55 inch and will be available in the US in May as well as Europe and Southeast Asia. Sadly, the specs for the PAVV 7000 and 6000 series are still unavailable. They must not be all that awesome.

The rumor is that Samsung might release a new Omnia Pro soon which will feature a full QWERTY keyboard and a wide touchscreen display, similar to the Touch Pro and Touch Pro2 from HTC. Word is that the Samsung Omnia Pro will arrive on the market this July.
