Samsung readies Yahoo-ready Ultra Edition II handsets

Filed under: ,

Samsung’s Ultra Edition II lineup is about to receive a Yahoo-approved makeover, as the firm has reportedly decided to install Yahoo! Ready on the 10.9 (SGH-U600) slider to begin with, with the Ultra Edition 9.6 and Ultra Edition 5.9 to get internally branded soon after. Essentially, users can expect “enhanced web-searching along with quick access to Yahoo Mail, Messenger, Address Book and Calendar services while on the go.” Of course, this isn’t the first time we’ve seen Yahoo widgets on a cellphone, and it seems like Samsung’s lagging a bit behind Motorola’s decision to pull this same stunt months ago, but if you just can’t wait to get your hands on a Yahoo-stamped handset, the 10.9 should hit France before too long, while the 9.6 and 5.9 will launch in May.
