CTIA Wireless 2009: AT&T’s Samsung Impression and Magnet

Today is the start of CTIA Wireless 2009, and Samsung are going to the event on a high with the launch of two great handsets. We know that the Propel Pro will be there, but Samsung have also brought along the Impression SGH-A877 and Magnet SGH-A257, both have full keyboards, making it easier to text and send emails.

The Samsung Impression has a candy-bar design and comes with a nice sized 3.2-inch touch-screen display. CNET say that this is the first phone in the US to come with an active-matrix organic light-emitting diode (AMOLED), that means that the screen is now much brighter than usual.

The Samsung Magnet is also a candy-bar cell phone and is bright orange in color. This handset forms part of Sammy’s low-end messaging range of phones, but still looks great. It is now known how much the Magnet will be, but the Impression will cost $200 and is available from April 7.
