Samsung has come up with the unveiling of its new widescreen handheld media player, known as Samsung P3. The new slim multimedia player, leveraging EmoTure interface with true haptic feedback, comes in shatterproof die-cast metal (to prevent scratching and fingerprints). As its reviews, the P3 player boasts of a 3-inch WQVGA TFT-LCD touch screen with a 16:9 aspect ratio.

Backing up an earlier leak, the Samsung’s upgraded EmoTure touch interface with true haptic feedback claims to offer a range of physical feedback sensations on each command gesture “from swiping a finger across the screen, to switching audio tracks, to holding down a digital button for fast-forwarding video.” Besides, the latest Music Hot Touch Key, set right below the touch screen, can be used by users to instantly make access to his/her desired music selections and features but for cycling through multiple menus.

Additionally, Samsung has also incorporated speakers and increased DNSe 3.0 sound augmentation technology, which, as is claimed by the company itself, let its users “enjoy better sound quality, which perfectly goes with the feel and tone initially planned by the audio maker. The earlier multimedia device were able to give support to MPEG-4-, WMV- and SVI-format videos and an array of audio formats (30hr playback).

The P3 media player is measured only 0.39 inches thin, and is to be thrown in the market with an FM radio, personal voice recorder, in addition to mass storage backing to easily get connected to a computer. Boasting more of the product Samsung lets us know that the if you want to make use of the integrated microphone to answer calls directly through the player, the P3 can easily be connected with a Bluetooth-enabled phone.

Pricing not available, the P3 is expected to come in matte silver and matte black finishes during the first half of 2009. Utilizing flash-memory, capacities come with 4GB, 8GB, 16GB and 32GB.
