Don’t know what’s the deal with the girl, but the phone is truly hot. Supposedly an updated RAZR (and KRZR) with extra large external screen, and a form factor thinner than KRZR. What’s more is that it supports reading out messages and emails in a computer voice. We don’t know how legit this is yet. More video and pictures after the jump.

Samsung SGH-Z720 might blow away in the wind

samsung sgh-z720 thinnest hsdpa

It’s only a matter of time until our mobile devices are so thin and light that they begin to blow away in the wind. The new Samsung SGH-Z720 is officially the thinnest HSDPA (High-Speed Downlink Packet Access) slider phone coming in at 13.8mm thick (or thin). In case you care, yes, that is .1mm less than the Motorola RAZR, the current US market trend in thin phones. As wireless transfer speeds are rapidly rising, the HSDPA is able to transfer data at 1.8Mbps. Now time for a feature list: 3 megapixel camera, 2.1-inch QVGA display, microSD external memory support, Google mobile search and Gmail integration, Bluetooth and USB connectivity.  The Google integration is extended into the application menu, not just the ability to access the web pages. This phone is beautiful, maybe not the most original, but it fits perfectly in with the style of phones nowadays. While sliders aren’t the most popular kind of cellphones right now, how thin this is combined with its impressive feature list make this a very promising offering from Samsung.
