The eye-popping Nikiski wasn't the only new form factor that Intel explored in its CES press conference.

Samsung S8300 Tocco Unboxing and hands-on

, Apr 15th 2009 Discuss [0]

We got a crate sent to us from Korea, and we weren’t sure what was inside. When I say crate, I mean wooden crate that required a hammer and crow bar to pry open. The precious cargo housed inside was worth the protection. A chorus of angels sang out in the middle of a Home Depot, and I laid eyes upon the Samsung S8300 Tocco Ultra Edition.

Samsung SGH-t819 is as ugly as a brown Zune

, Jan 21st 2008 Discuss [2]

For some reason T-Mobile and/or Samsung felt it prudent to not only design, but go ahead and produce and sell an ugly brown cell phone. Add to that the fact that it all runs on edge and that makes it all the less tempting. Read The Full Story

Helio Mysto finally hitting stores

, Dec 21st 2007 Discuss [0]

Not on a mass scale though, apparently they’ll actually only be available in the Helio NYC and Santa Monica stores, and even then they won’t be advertised at all, you’ll have to specifically ask for one to even see it, let alone buy it. However, word is, there should be enough available for everyone that shows up and asks for one on the 26th and 27th, then after that they’ll probably be out of supply, for about a month.

LG KH1800 also known as the Orange phone

, Dec 20th 2007 Discuss [0]

And surprisingly not due to it being on the French network. It’s called that because of the extreme amount of bright orange used on this slider phone. Its 13.3mm and a slider, I want a slider that thin to hit stateside, I love sliders, but they are always so thick, I guess this one is the exception. It has MP3 playback, a dictionary, camera, and 3G thanks to WCDMA. Sadly though it will never see the light of day stateside, its headed only to Korea’s KTF network and will cost you the equivalent of about $372 USD. Oh, in case you were wondering, there is no T-DMB in this phone. LG KH1800 or the Orange phone [via newlaunches]
