The bad news is that it's a Korea-only phone (shipping next month) and according to Gearlog's Sascha Segan no one seems to know much about it.

But on the good side, the phone runs on Samsung's TouchWiz UI, can project any of the visual media stored on the phone, animated Korean kids stories and DMB-T mobile TV signals, or functions as a de facto flashlight.

Segan says Samsung reps promised more details soon. For now check out more pics on Gearlog, or take a peek at CrunchGear's video below. [Gearlog and CrunchGear]
