Here are some photos of the LG KE850 which had previously been released on MobilPort. Dubbed as the Prada phone, the LG KE850 will have a simple white on black GUI (not the blue seen in the images). I can say that this phone is unique since it has no keypad and supports a touch screen display. It also has a classic minimalist design. No word on pricing yet, but I’m sure the handset will be a lot cheaper than might be expected of a Prada branded product. LG Prada Phone will be released in late March or early April, 2007. More pics after the jump!

The slim Samsung SGH-Z560 features a 2.3-inch QVGA display, 2.0MP shooter, HSDPA support, dedicated music keys, Bluetooth connectivity, and media playback capabilities. RegHardware have reviewed this phone. Here is the verdict.

The Samsung SGH-Z560 is a pioneer mobile phone, leading the way in the HSDPA handset market. The one thing about leading the way is that others – including web designers – have to catch up; the number of non-mobile-compliant sites make phone browsing a painful rather than rewarding experience. That said, having snappy internet access - albeit variable - is invaluable, as is being able to use the Z560 as a broadband modem on PCs. The Z560’s music and digital imaging functionality combine to make this a compelling mobile multimedia offering.

Samsung’s SCH-V960 is said to be the world’s first cellphone with an optical joystick. With this technology, you can slide your finger on the sensor and the cursor moves anywhere you want on the screen. Then you can click on the icons on the screen, just like when you’re using a laptop touch pad. For those who like the spec, this handset features a 2MP shooter, Bluetooth and GPS capabilities, plus it has a light sensor that adjusts screen brightness according to ambient lighting conditions which means the handset can preserve its battery power. The slider phone will be available in Korea later this month. More pics after the jump!
