Today Samsung introduced two new music-focused phones, the Beatb and the Beats. The main feature of these phones is what Samsung calls Motion Play. Motion Play lets users control their music with just few simple motions. Tapping the phone will pause music, and flipping it over will silence the phone. Shaking the phone advances the music player to the next track. They also share many core specs, including 2 megapixel cameras, 3.5mm headset jacks, stereo Bluetooth with 2.0, USB 2.0, FM radios with RDS, and slots for mircoSD cards. Both phones will come in bright colors.

• M3510 Beatb:This bar-style phone has 900/1800/1900 tri-band GSM/EDGE radios in it. It has Find Music by Shazam preloaded, and uses Samsung's Digital Natural Sound engine for music playback. It will be available later this month.
• M3200 Beats: This slider phone has an 850/1800/1900 tri-band GSM/EDGE configuration, making it more compatible with U.S. networks. It also has an ICEpower amplifier from Bang & Olufson for better sound reproduction. It will be available in October.
