Since the launch of the iPhone, mobile phone manufacturers are trying to come with devices that are similar to and that would compete directly with the iPhone. HTC Touch was the first iPhone like phone that was released by HTC to compete with the iPhone. Other recently announced iPhone like phones include the LG Vu, Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1 & the Samsung Any Call Haptic phone.

Samsung is soon going to release a perfect iPhone rival known as the Samsung Instinct Smartphone.

The Samsung instinct is very similar to Samsung’s Any Call Haptic phone that is soon going to be launched in the Korean market. If you look at the images you would notice that it looks a lot like the iPhone. It also comes with some powerful features that would match the features on the iPhone. It is going to be released in June in association with Sprint and I believe it is going to do really well in the international market.
