Samsung looks to be planning some really big things for Mobile World Congress. We’ve already seen the Korean cellphone maker unveiling their high-end touchscreen slider in the Samsung UltraTOUCH S8300, but it looks like Samsung has another high-end beauty in store for convention-goers tomorrow.

Plastered on the side of one of the Fira de Barcelona’s massive convention halls hangs a Samsung banner showing off three new handsets. The Samsung Beat DJ, the Samsung UltraTOUCH S8300, and the Samsung Omnia HD. Of the three, the Smsung Omnia HD caught our eye. Samsung is apparently ready to unleash a high-res touchscreen handset on the consuming public with the follow-up to the Samsung Omnia.

The Samsung Omnia HD is actually the Samsung Acme i8910 that we’ve seen leaked from Samsung’s camp in the past. We’re looking for the Samsung Omnia HD to sport a high-resolution AMOLED (Active Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode) display, 8 megapixel camera, GPS, WiFi, and some decent on-board storage.

Of course, pricing and availability aren’t going to be released until at least tomorrow (if even then). Make sure to keep checking IntoMobile front page for the latest news from Mobile World Congress!
