Samsung Galaxy S Hoppin SHW-M190 is bundled with a dock to connect with a TV

There's no denying that Samsung has seemingly thrown just about everything into their Samsung Galaxy S handset, but the Korean based company is continuing to place a lot of attention on its flagship device.

Next up on the list is none other than the Samsung Galaxy S Hoppin SHW-M190 which is essentially an identical model to their popular flagship device except for its inclusion of a dock and the ability to stream video from their new Hoppin entertainment service. In fact, it's billed as being a “smartphone that can also serve as a set-top box” so you can always watch content either on the go or in the comforts of your living room. And with the aid of movies running in the range of 1,000 to 3,500 won (89 cents to $3.12), it's actually quite acceptable and can come in handy if you want to show off its prowess to friends.

As we mentioned already, the Galaxy S Hoppin has a lot of common with its brothers and sisters, but it specifically features a 4” Super AMOLED display, 1GHz Hummingbird processor, 5-megapixel auto-focus camera, Android 2.2 Froyo, Bluetooth 3.0, and Wi-Fi. The handset is expected to launch in South Korea some time this week, but its exact time frame and pricing are still unknown.
