Spaniards have got a special edition of Samsung My Touch exclusively from Movistar. Samsung roped in renowned Spanish designer Custo Dalmau to launch this My Touch 2GB Custo Special Edition. This edition does not get any changes on the hardware front but gets a special artwork on the battery cover and a bag to please the lovely ladies.

The phone is an elder sibling to Star that features a 2.8-inch touchscreen display, 3G, 3.2MP camera, TouchWiz UI, music player, 2GB internal memory and microSD card slot (up to 8GB).

Samsung has teamed up with Spanish Federation of Breast Cancer (FECMA) and launched My Touch 2GB Pink Ribbon edition to spread awareness and fight against breast cancer. For those who’re wondering My Touch is the same as S5600, which is also known as Preston or Star 3G. The phone will be sold through Telefónica and for each unit sold, Samsung will donate 10 euros. This special edition comes loaded with Spanish singer Bebe’s latest album “Y” and also some animated informational guide (assuming related to breast cancer).

Samsung had introduced a Star Think-Pink (S5230) edition in Belgium last month.

Samsung’s previously announced S5230 and S5600 have got an easy to remember name. S5230 also known as Tocco Lite in the UK will go as Star in rest of the markets while S5600 has been christened as Preston.

Star as we know, has a 3-inch WQVGA screen, TouchWiz UI, EDGE, 3.2MP camera, DNSe, accelerometer, Gesture Lock and microSD slot supporting up to 8GB.

Samsung Star will be available in Pink, White and Black colors and will sell across Europe, Africa and Asia.

Preston on the other hand, has a tad smaller touchscreen measuring 2.8-inches supporting QVGA resolution, TouchWiz UI, 7.2Mbps HSDPA, 3.2MP camera, Gesture Lock, Multi-codec support like H.263, MPEG4, WMV and microSD card slot up to 8GB.

Users from Europe and Asia can pick Preston from this month in colors of Sweet Pink, Snow White and Charcoal Grey.

Samsung to release Preston in UK?

kunal — Mon, 13 Apr 2009 18:12:07 +0000

The details are pretty hard to come by but according to last week’s release schedule leak, a phone known as Preston will make its way on the Orange network. The phone will be launched in May and will come in black, pink and white colors.

I don’t think Samsung will make a new phone from scratch but it will be some model number replaced with a name. Remember Tocco?
