In 2005, Samsung launched around 140 phones and over the next year it looks like it's going to make a whole bunch more.

Right now Samsung is the world's third-largest mobile phone manufacturer and is making technological advancements at an incredible pace. This is a selection of some of its latest handsets, some of which will come to Australia.
The Samsung X830 (pictured) is Samsung's first attempt at a dedicated music phone. It features a flick-to-open mechanism, 1GB of onboard memory and a scroll wheel. This is a sign of things to come and sources at Samsung informed us that it is soon going to launch a new range of music phones to compete with the likes of Sony Ericsson and Nokia.
Our sources also leaked that Samsung is going to make a phone that's even thinner than the Samsung X820, which is only 6.9mm thick.
