New Images Show the Samsung Acme Will Have S60 and a Touchscreen

Additional images of the Samsung Acme i8910 have leaked out, and unlike the images that appeared a few days ago, these reveal that the operating system will Symbian S60 5th Edition. This means this smartphone will have a touchscreen.

Details on this model began to leak out last week, and a fairly complete overview of it is now available.

The Acme will apparently have a strong focus on multimedia. It's not known what type of camera will be in this device, but it will reportedly include HD recording and HDMI Output, DNLA and DivX compatibility.

Other features will supposedly include GPS, Wi-Fi, and a 3.5 mm headphone jack. 

The i8910 is also said to come in 8 GB and 16 GB versions, much like Samsung's InnoV8, another S60-powered smartphone with a touchscreen.

Many details on this model still remain unknown, like screen resolution. Additional information about the Samsung Acme i8910 is expected during the Mobile World Congress tradeshow, which kicks off the middle of this month.
