Samsung Bringing Dual-Core Phones and New Tablets in Feb

You had to guess Samsung wasn’t going to go too far into 2011 without a dual core announcement of their own: they’ve confirmed that they will be showing those particular wares off at Mobile World Congress going down in Barcelona, Spain February 14th-17th.

Samsung is going through a major shift from 3G to 4G and from feature phones to smartphones, Shin said. While Samsung expects to make roughly the same number of phone models in 2011 as the company did last year, the balance will turn towards smartphones, Samsung's executive vice president and head of marketing DJ Lee said. Overall, Samsung expects to sell at least 10% more phones in 2011 than they did this year.
