Samsung Puts AMOLED Display in Music Player

Samsung Electronics, the world's biggest electronics maker, has been pushing active matrix organic light emitting diode (AMOLED) displays for mobile phones.

Now the company is ready to expand the emerging display technology to portable music players.

The company unveiled its new portable music player, Yepp AMOLED M1 (YP-M1), which features a 3.3-inch AMOLED screen that enables high-definition (HD) video images.

The advanced display is matched with strengthened multimedia capabilities, which include mobile television reception, MPEG4 videos, XviD video codec support, Windows Media Video (WMV) and the company's DNSe 3.0 sound-enhancement technology.

The AMOLED screen has haptic feedback, or vibrates when pressing an icon on the screen, and also features Samsung's ``Touch Wiz'' user interface, which is widely used on the company's high-end mobile phones.

Samsung says its newest music player is one of the first models in the industry to use Tegra, Nvidia's high-performance processor that is designed to handle HD video and flash, and enables sharper and smoother images.

The device also supports FM radio, a 16-gigabytle external memory, stereo-speakers and could also be used as an electronic dictionary for English and Chinese.

The 8-gigabyte model will be sold for 299,000 won. However, the company has yet to decide on the prices for the 16- and 32-giabyte versions, as well as the models with mobile television reception.

``Yepp AMOLED M1 is not just an MP3 player used to listen to music, but a full multimedia device that you listen to, watch and feel,'' a Samsung spokesman said.

``We believe that this is one of the products to open a new era of MP3 players that function as portable entertainment devices.''
