Yesterday, Samsung announced a new music-centric slider, the M3200 Beat s. Sporting a row of dedicated music playback keys beneath its display, this cell phone also brings a standard 3.5mm audio port and a microSD card slot to the party. A Bang & Olufsen ICEpower amplifier and stereo speakers are also on board for a superior music experience.

The Samsung Beat s is connected with tri-band GSM (850/1800/1900MHz) support, in addition to Bluetooth with A2DP support for stereo wireless headsets. A 2 megapixel camera is hidden around back, and the 2" QVGA display is capable of showing up to 262k colors.

The Samsung M3200 Beat s also uses Samsung's new Motion Play system, which uses motion to control various commands. Users can flip the the phone face down to silence the music, or simply shake the phone to move to the next track or the previous track. The Samsung M3200 Beat s is set to be available in October, though pricing information was not yet released.
