Samsung brings in a generation leap to its Star series with the new Star 3 and Star 3 Duos, successors to Star and Star 2, respectively. These feature phones will come enhanced with Samsung’s ChatOn social networking service, along with better multimedia and a stylish design.

The included ChatON communication service allows signing-in without ID or password to send personalized multimedia messages, group chat and buddy management. Besides, these phones aim at keeping you connected at all time with instant messaging services like MSN, Yahoo!, and Google Talk, natively integrated Facebook, Twitter and push emails.
