The popular Samsung Soul cellphone that had a special edition made for the Olympics, will become available in the near future in a mix of two new colors: black and gold. The standard color when it was launched was red, so it is good to see more options in the table.

As expected, this Samsung Soul version is a limited edition that will cost a bit more - $40 - when comparing to the normal model. The gold look is a good call for stylish people that will certainly enjoy owning it.

Samsung really seems to be getting into the sportive spirit this Olympics. First it was the gold-plated D780, which became the official cell phone for the Russian Olympics team, then the m530 for Canada, and now a Special Edition of its new SPH-W5950IL in its Soul line to commemorate the 2008 Beijing Olympics. What else would you expect from the official telecom partner for the event, huh? Samsung has limited itself to 20080 handsets with the Olympics logo emblazoned on its backside and Koreans (as always!) will get a shot at it with no information on its availability elsewhere. The slider boasts of a 5-megapixel camera, 7.2Mbps HSDPA support, Bluetooth 2.0, and a keypad with navigation indicators. Going now for 699,600 KRW (about $688).

Samsung Soul B Cell Phone

Classy is just another word that describes Samsung’s Ultra Series and the Soul B is definitely not an exception. Samsung drops the 5-megapixel camera and the slider form factor from the Samsung Soulto accommodate 3 megapixels and a candybar design, although I wish they had carried over the Magic Touch keypad technology seen on the Soul, which changes colors depending on where you navigate. With LED flash accompanying the camera, this cell phone also has 1GB of internal memory with a microSD slot for further storage needs. Connectivity seems to be top-notch with tri-band GSM support and HSDPA, but I see no mention of WiFi, assuming Bluetooth is already onboard.

The Samsung Soul B will be available in Germany around June in a choice of five colors. No mention is made of a price yet.

Steel yourself for this mid-ranger from Samsung called…the Steel. With its brushed metal finish and the black plastic base, the Steel certainly lives up to its name, though at the cost of being similar to the Samsung Soul. The navpad certainly is alike, but lacks the interactivity that the Soul’s pad has. The slider has a 2.2-inch display, small but enough to watch videos or pictures shot on its 3-megapixel camera. Though the details are scarce, we do know that the Steel has a microSD slot, support for tri-band GSM with EDGE and HSDPA data transfer, and while can only guess that it will have some media capabilities, Samsung has let it slip that the phone will boast a DAB radio among other things.

The Samsung Steel is expected to land in the UK exclusively through Vodafone this June. So we don’t have to wait too long to know more…

  • When Samsung Soul was announced, we were all at the edge of our seats, hanging on to every detail we could find of it. And I think we speak for most of us when I say that we weren’t disappointed. After all, it’s a sliding phone with 5-megapixel camera, HSDPA support, Magic Touch Technology, microSD card slot, and quad-band world wide roaming capability. Wait a minute…quad-band? Nope, we’ve been duped. According to phonescoop.com, they’ve discovered that the Soul is missing one band, the GSM 850. Documents in the FCC has confirmed it — the Samsung Soul is a tri-band phone with GSM 900/1800/1900 + WCDMA 2100 bands. Bully, Samsung.
