Bang & Olufsen go mobile

Hook up with Samsung gives birth to loudspeaker toting Serenata.

Who wants a bog standard looking blower? Not us, that's for sure. That's why we've been stopped in our gadget hunting tracks by the new Serenata.

The brainchild of Bang and Olufsen and Samsung, this new cell looks nothing like any phone we've seen before.

It packs in a loudspeaker, but banish your visions of scratty kids playing Akon at the back of the bus through their cheapo mobile. B&O say this will work as a decent home entertainment system. Handy considering there's 4GB on board for stashing your tunes.

The unique design also includes a click wheel, letting you mooch around the phone no bother.

Navigation is a breeze courtesy of the 2.4-inch screen and getting the web going on that lush LCD is easy thanks to on board HSDPA.

There's no price yet, but we've been given an exclusive hands on over in Berlin, so be sure to check back for our exclusive video and gallery.
