Samsung targets the Nokia 8800 Arte and other exotica with the upcoming, dual-sim S9402:

Photos of the first dual SIM-enabled luxurious handset leaked online. The hand-crafted Samsung S9402 Duos relies on exquisite materials and great build-quality to impress potential buyers. The rhodium-plated body is resistant to almost any kind of mechanical damage and disruption and is among the most expensive precious metals.

In addition to the attractive looks and quirky name the Samsung S9402 will have a 262K color OLED display and a 5 megapixel autofocus camera. The network data transfers will have to go through GPRS or EDGE on both SIM cards since the new Duos has no support for 3G networks.

The internal memory of Samsung S9402 Duos is 1GB and can be expanded further through the microSD card slot. The list of features of the handsets is completed by USB and Bluetooth (v 2.0).

The new Duos handset will first hit the shelves in Russia but neither the exact date nor the price is yet known. However, rumor has it that it will directly compete with Nokia Arte phones and Motorola Aura, so you might expect a price tag of about 1000 euro.

It comes equipped with Bang & Olufsen / ICEPower amplifier to improve the sound quality of the speakers.

Specs:

Triband GSM (900/1800/1900 Mhz), GPRS/EDGE connectivity on 1st SIM card
Dual band (900/1800 Mhz), GPRS/EDGE connectivity on 2nd SIM card
2 inch 262K color QVGA AMOLED display
5 megapixel camera with autofocus, image stabilization, smile detection, WDR and LED flash
FM Radio with RDS
1 GB of built-in memory
microSDHC memory card slot (up to 8 GB)
Bluetooth 2.0 and USB
960 mAh battery
Dimensions: 115 x 48 x 16 mm
Weight: 140 g

Doesn't look that nice really.

Would choose the arte or vertu over this.

Yep, the 8800 series from Nokia still reigns supreme. This is ugly IMO. Design wise, SE can come up with a very capable alternative to the Nokia's luxury phones.

SE imo can do a better design.

SE can make use of more exquisite and premium materials in their T series to challenge other premium series of competitors
