Samsung’s original Haptic smartphone was unveiled back in March and sold for KRW 700,000, which is quite a lot. Now, Samsung is unveiling Samsung’s Haptic 2 smartphones - the SCH-W550/SPH-W5500, SCH-W555 Phones. Haptic implies that there is feedback and in the case of Samsung’s Haptic 2 smartphones there are visual, audio and physical feedback.

The physical feedback is based on micro motors that generate small vibrations. When you touch the display, the Haptic 2 responds by vibrating. The visual feedback is of course via the 3.2″ TFT LCD with capacitive multi-touch display. Starting at noon on September 27, Samsung will be available for purchase on a first-come first-serve basis at the Sinchon Anycall Studio.

Samsung is reporting that its new Haptic 2 touch capabilities have been enhanced with smoother drag and drop, picture flipping, fingerwriting recognition functions. There also an interesting “music therapy” function and the Haptic 2 informs you of your bio-rhythms. Samsung has put quite a bit into the Haptic 2 series smartphones and I do hope the multitouch experience has improved over the prior generation.
