Samsung is rolling out new versions of its highly popular Star S5230 handset in Germany.

The first one is the LaFleur edition, which used to be available for one other Samsung phone – F480. The special version of the handset will come in red with floral patterns on the case.

The second Star version is FIFA World Cup Fan Package, which is obviously made to celebrate the upcoming 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa.

Both devices will be available starting from May, when interested Germans will be able to grab them for 245 EUR.

Specs wise, the Samsung Star S5230 comes with a 3-inch WQVGA touchscreen, 3.2-megapixel camera, accelerometer, Bluetooth, HTML browser, media player and a microSD memory card slot.

In addition to these two new versions, Samsung has released other flavors of the device, including Hello Kitty and Think Pink versions, WiFi-enabled Star and the one with analog TV receiver. To date, the Korean company has moved more than 10 million Star units.
