The Samsung Soul is the first mobile phone review I’ve done in a while, but I felt it deserved more coverage as it’s an intriguing mobile phone. Not only does it look stunning (which is a nice new trend that Samsung have managed to keep up throughout their entire Ultra range of mobile phones, of which the Soul is set to be the last), but it comes with some cracking features as well.

The Samsung Soul is the flagship phone for Samsung for 2008, so you’d expect it to be feature-rich, but feature-rich and good looking? That takes some doing!

The question is, how well do the features on the Samsung Soul work? Read on to find out with our comprehensive Samsung Soul review.

Samsung have released a new touchscreen phone that seems strangely familiar. The new Samsung AnyCall Haptic is a sleek looking device with a huge 3.2″ touchscreen that features a widescreen 16:9 aspect ratio for optimal multimedia viewing. It also features a nifty new user interface as you can see from the pics, but it all looks, well…like an iPhone!

It seems camera phones are about to get a whole lot better, at least if Samsung has any say in the matter. What you see here is the company’s latest technological miracle: an 8 megapixel CMOS sensor designed exclusively for camera phones. As you can see, it’s pretty small – just 28mm x 15.3mm x 8.5mm – but most impressive is the functionality it provides. Not only does it come with 8 megapixels, it also offers ISO settings up to 1600, which means pics taken in low light conditions will look much better.

There also anti-shake technology built-in, face recognition, a 1cm macro, and Samsung’s very own “Smile shutter” system, which detects smiles, and automatically takes a photo when everyone is smiling! Not entirely sure why you’d want a photo album filled with grinning idiots, but at least it beats a set of gurning ghouls, which my Facebook photos seem to consist of!

The new Samsung CMOS will begin production in the third quarter of this year, so expect to see 8 megapixel camera phones based on this chip early in 2009.

Samsung have announced a new phone with an odd name The phone in question is called the Samsung Miniskirt Season 2 (or the even-less intuitive SCH-C225, SPH-C2205, and SPH-C2255), a title that contains not a hint of the gadget it actually refers to. Looking nothing like a mini-skirt, the new Samsung phone is being pitched firmly at women, who apparently like to Talk, Play, Love.

More details and pictures of the Samsung Miniskirt phone (and girls in miniskirts, naturally) after the jump.
