TV-enabled Samsung Ultra Video out in Q2 2007

What's better than the Ultra Video phone? A TV version naturally, according to the Korean company's books. According to a Samsung spokesperson, the new handset will be branded under the F500 series and is slated to launch in Q2 next year, dependent, of course, on local cellular operators offering the service.

Currently, there isn't much information on the type of TV broadcast signals supported on the Ultra Video phone. However, we are expecting it to come with DVB-H compatibility. And based on the specifications given for the TV-less version of the Ultra Video F500, the triband handset should also feature a 2.4-inch QVGA display, 2-megapixel camera, DivX codec support, A2DP Bluetooth stereo profile, 400MB onboard memory and a microSD expansion slot.
