Samsung B5100 Leak
Samsung is developing a mid-range smartphone which would take on high-end candybar designs like the Nokia E52. A leak of the B5100 shows a typical numberpad design but one that will have a 3-megapixel camera, 3G, GPS and Wi-Fi; it's set to run Symbian S60 like its Nokia counterpart. It would also have native DivX video playback on a relatively large screen.
When the phone would ship and to where isn't revealed at this stage, though Samsung's Symbian phones are usually tailored towards Europe. Given the €499 ($698) price and model naming scheme of the i7110, the B5100 is likely to cost significantly less. [via Unwired View]
