Samsung has launched the i8520 Beam smartphone today, featuring Android 2.1, a projector, Bada user interface, and TouchWiz 3.0 for widgets.
The built-in DLP pico projector "casts a 6-lumen image and has its own customized interface when blown up to the larger size. Samsung has a unique implementation that can show the 5-megapixel camera's sensor image through the projector for specialized situations, like viewing documents in a classroom," says Electronista.
The device has a large 3.7-inch Super AMOLED touchscreen, 3G, Wi-Fi, GPS and 16GB internal memory.
No word on price or availability, but Samsung has likely in time for Summer.
