Wow, looks like someone was paying attention to all those video iPod mock-ups from earlier in the year. The IM-U160 cellphone might be the last gasp of air for Pantech, since the company seems to be going through some financial troubles. From a feature perspective it's pretty much a standard issue Korea-only phone: basic multimedia support, two megapixel camera, microSD, etc. The display, on the other hand, is something to behold. It's 2.6-inches and dominates the phone's design. When closed, the phone appears to be little more than an attractive display.

You bet your bottom dollar there's more pics after the jump.

It's really a shame to hear that Pantech is having some hard times since they consistently release things that are very easy on the eyes. Granted, they almost never come out here, but every product release of theirs does give us the opportunity to check out their lovely models. – Nicholas Deleon
