SAMSUNG Anycall today announced the launch of the SAMSUNG Anycall E958, a slider phone with dual displays and a stunning upgrade to its popular E908 model. Retaining the classic elegance of its predecessor, the latest phone comes with new, advanced features including a touch pad that adapts to the needs of users and Bang & Olufsen amplifier technology ICEpower®.

Slim and sleek, the SAMSUNG Anycall E958 keeps the spirit of the SAMSUNG Anycall E908 with its reflective surface and seamless design. Beyond its sophisticated aesthetics, this model has the functionality to match.

SAMSUNG Anycall E958 takes the guess work out of inputting with a SmarTouch intelligent touch-pad that adapts to the specific needs of users. SmarTouch provides changing icons that make navigation more intuitive. Instead of lighting up generic keys, this Samsung-developed feature illuminates specific keys according to user needs. For example, when in Music mode, SmarTouch will highlight the play, fast forward, rewind and stop icons; but when using the calculator application, the plus, minus, multiply and divide signs will be illuminated.

This eliminates the problem faced by conventional key pads, which are often too generic to truly capture a wide range of applications. SmarTouch renders individual, customized icons that are directly related to the functions being accessed at the time.

The ICEpower® technology also solves a challenge faced by portable digital devices. Conventional amplifiers convert an average of 10 percent of their power input to the speaker units while the remaining 90 percent of power is wasted as heat. ICEpower®, a Bang & Olufsen technology, is a powerful energy-efficiency feature that enables the amplifier to transfer over 90 percent of power to speaker, thus it allows ultra-compact amplifiers to deliver superior sound quality.

Music lovers have even more to rejoice with the SAMSUNG Anycall E958. The phone's Media Transfer Protocol (MTP) makes downloading and organizing files a hassle-free experience. Users can organize their favorite tracks according to title, artist, and album, and easily synchronize the E958 with computer database by using Windows Media® Player in Windows Vista® and Windows® XP. E958 also offers long play time in the offline mode and FM radio feature.

Digital convergence is taken even further with a 3.2 mega-pixel CMOS camera that offers resolution high enough to eliminate the need to carry a separate digital camera and, with an embedded 60MB memory and support for microSD™ (up to 2GB), the SAMSUNG Anycall provides hefty storage for photographs.

Bluetooth Version 2.0 offers the best in connectivity and the phone's 2" 262K TFT Color Display (240 x 320 pixel) complements its multimedia features with sharp and clear images.
