Just rumor thats it's gonna be the next Helio phone, but it doesn't fit the size spec's for the FCC. Then again that could be for a different phone that comes out later.

It's called the MiniSkirt

The image in the FCC reports.

The FCC reports on the new Samsung SPH-A523.. found here.. FCC report

While zooming in and out on the image of the FCC label and where it will be on the phone, sometimes the full image of the phone (normally blocked out by a white box) will flash across for half a second.

Luckily there is a print screen button... so... I present to you.. the back of an image of what the phones design will be. =)



This does not mean this is the next device, but we will see it sometime down the road. They have 6 months of confidentiality, it could come out before then, who knows. With the Drift being discontinued this may come sooner than we think. It may either be the next, or 2nd from next.

Oh well, time for speculations.

It looks a lot like the Fin as far as the shape.

I'm just saying, the shape appears to be that of another flip. Maybe one with a bigger outside display this time.

Yeah, has the same shape to it, just on the Fin's FCC reports you could actually see the part where it flipped.. like brackets.

=) I thought at first you were trying to say I was just putting a pic of the fin up, sorry, lol.

I hope for another slider. With the Drift being at the end of its cycle.. I'd hate for their to be more or an equal amount of flips to sliders.

I don't think samsung would put a camera on the back of a flip phone.
Especially when its 3g capable(not that we get video calling services...)
and I never saw a flip phone with camera on the back.

Maybe its another slider or who knows, maybe its another Dual slider....?

Maybe its just a smaller version of the Ocean, possibly the "Sea".
