CES 2006: Samsung presents the YP-Z5, YP-T8N and YP-U2
The YP-Z5 [via] (pictured on the right) will come in February in two capacities (2GB/4GB) going for $200/$250 respectively. It’s got a 1.8-inch LCD (no video capability though, just pictures), MP3/WMA support and a Li-ion battery that runs for up to 38 hours. Here are some pictures of the device at Samsung’s CES booth. UPDATE: CNET Asia’s first look on the device.
The YP-T8N is the successor to the YP-T8 and it’ll come in 3 capacities (1GB/2GB/4GB). It’s got the same display as the YP-Z5, MP3/WMA/OGG/ASF support, video playback capability (MPEG-4), FM tuner. Battery runs for 20 hours (audio).
The YP-U2 is smaller than its predecessor (the YP-U1, which only came to the US like a month or two ago), comes in 512MB/1GB capacities, going for $100/$130 respectively. Supports MP3/WMA/Ogg Vorbis, has an FM tuner and a voice recorder.
