Currently, the Samsung Galaxy Wide had been announced in South Korea only. Interestingly, the Galaxy Wide carries the model number SM-G600S, which is identical to the Galaxy On7 launched last year. The specs are also identical, indicating that the Galaxy Wide is just a re-branded variation for the Korean market.
