Samsung has launched the Application Store to its domestic market. However, unlike Samsung’s European app store, this one is a part of SK Telecom’s existing app store, meaning that it works in a “shop inside a shop” manner. We’ve seen this happening in the “offline world” (Apple is especially known for this concept), and I’m…

Super low-end Samsung Stunt announced for MetroPCS
MetroPCS is adding a new device in its portfolio – Samsung Stunt. The super low-end handset won’t impress many with its specs, but that’s not the idea, anyway. The Stunt is made for those people who only need a phone for some texting and calling, nothing else. It’s a tri-band CDMA candybar with Bluetooth support,…
Samsung working on an even lower-end Corby – Pop
It looks like the Corby S3650 is not cheap enough, hence Samsung is working on an even more basic (and cheaper) version of the device – Corby Pop. We don’t have all the details — the image above is the S3650 — but we heard the forthcoming device will feature such things as 1.3-megapixel camera,…

Samsung’s announcement of their brand new operating system, bada, was largely vague and uninteresting, mostly since there were no devices or screenshots to consider, but a few screenshots have bubbled up and given us something to chew on. At first glance, it reminds me a lot of Symbian, though you can definitely spot elements of…

Samsung has a special version of its cool-looking watchphone for millionaires around the world. Actually, you don’t have to be a millionaire to grab the S9110 Limited Edition, as it costs “only” 999 EUR, an amount that many people could pay, with or without a loan.

Brief: Samsung Electronics to get new CEO, split into 7 smaller companies, mobile is one of them
2010 looks to be the year of musical chairs. With Nokia recently changing their CFO and then reorganizing their mobile division into phones, smartphones, and mobile computers, it looks like Samsung Electronics is aiming to do roughly same thing. Previously the mobile division of Samsung Electronics was lumped together with the people working on televisions,…
Samsung unveils six new earphones in South Korea
I’m not sure this is completely mobile related, as Samsung also makes MP3 players, but we’re going with it, nonetheless. The Korean giant has unveiled six new earphones in its domestic market: The Samsung EP380 and EP340 are the entry-level earphones, with one of them (EP380) coming in “stylish body design” with choice different of…

Android 2.0 Coming to Sprint’s Hero and Moment
Just a quickie from Sprint’s Twitter account: an Android 2.0 update will be arriving on the HTC Hero and Samsung Moment sometime in the first half of 2010. Yeah, that’s an awfully vague timeframe, but with the Opus One around the corner with the very same OS, the update may arrive sooner than later. Android…
