Samsung Electronics said Tuesday it has developed mobile phones for the High Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) technology that reach download times of up to 3.6 Mbps, twice as fast as current models.
Samsung integrated Qualcomm¡¯s latest chip, Mobile Station Modem or MSM6280, so the phone takes only one minute to download 10 MP3 files. According to a press release, Lee Ki-tae, the firm¡¯s communication business chief, said Samsung, having already achieved the lead in the WiBro mobile Internet technology, was now well on its way to leading next-generation telecom technology.
The firm will showcase the phones at the 2006 International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas to be held from Thursday to Sunday.
