Top Samsung phones

It can be hard to choose a new handset, especially when there are so many different makes and models to choose from that offer different things. This week we are looking at the top Samsung mobile phones that are available at the moment and the ones that are coming out in the near future to help you make a decision about what handset will be right for your needs. The Samsung devices we are looking at are smartphones which operate on Android OS, bada OS and Windows OS, however Samsung still offer great mobile handsets.

The Samsung Galaxy S II is the company’s new flagship smartphone, which operates on the latest version of Android, it also have numerous features that out perform some competitors, such as; a dual-core processor, DLNA, a 4.3-inch Super AMOLED plus display, an eight-megapixel camera capable of full 1080p HD video-recording and playback and easy to use social networking apps. This latest version of the Galaxy S, looks set to become even more popular than its predecessor, well until more handsets jump onto the duel-core processor bandwagon. For all that punch you can get the S II for free on contract with monthly cost starting around £30 or sim free for around £500.00.

The original Samsung Wave was the first handset to feature Samsung’s own phone system, Bada and their own app store, now the latest version of the Wave, the Samsung Wave II is here and although from the outside it doesn’t look that much different, it’s the inside where changes have been made. To start with you may notice a bigger 3.7 inch screen which is on par with more basic Android handsets; inside they have out in a 1GHz processor which is fairly speedy. They offer a good social hub to keep up with all social networking updates and the Wave has t9 Trace which makes texting even faster. If you fancy the Samsung Wave II you can get the handset for free on most low priced contracts or sim free for around £300.00.

When launched, there were only a small handful of Windows 7 devices, which use the Windows OS, Samsungs main offering was the Samsung Omnia 7. It has a large 4-inch Super AMOLED capacitive touchscreen, and standard Windows Phone 7 specs such as a 5-megapixel camera with LED flash, GPS and Wi-Fi. It’s hard to compare it to the other Samsung handsets, because of the different operating systems; people seem to be falling into certain handset categories, Android, Windows and Apple iOS and its hard to compare the different systems as a lot of it is on personal choice. Although Windows OS is still in the early stages, the Omnia 7 itself is still a good handset which is easy to use, it has a 5 mega-pixel camera that can switch to HD video at 720p and 8GB of internal memory, however it does not come with the option of expandable memory like some of the other Windows 7 handsets. The Samsung Omnia 7 is another handset that you can get from free on a £20+ contract and to buy sim free from just under £500.00.
