It also features Samsung's TouchWiz 2.0 interface and Dolfin web browser, in addition to a five megapixel camera, GPS and enhanced multimedia functionality.

"Samsung Jet is about enabling aspirational and exciting lifestyles and setting people free with viewing, sharing content, internet browsing, films and photos all at unprecedented speeds for today's impatient consumers," said Mark Mitchinson, Samung Mobile UK's vice president for the UK and Ireland, in a statement.

Exact pricing and availability details for all of the new devices are, as yet, still unconfirmed.
