The model slated for release on Verizon will be a variant of the series found on Japanese carrier KDDI AU with slight adjustments made for the American market such as a CMOS+DSP combo for the 5.1 megapixel camera with optical zoom, xenon flash, locking battery cover in a nod to the GzOne series, and a WVGA widescreen display while still retaining the swiveling bezel found on the W63CA and Samsung Flipshot in order to aid photography and video capture.
The phone also features a microSDHC expansion slot, Bluetooth with stereo audio support, media player, speakerphone, and EVDO. There is no information on pricing or availability at this time.
