As expected, Samsung’s “Just for you” teaser was not for the Galaxy S5. It was instead for the Taiwanese launch of the Galaxy J (model number SGH-N075T), a smartphone that Samsung has already announced for Japan. It effectively combines the the specifications of the Galaxy Note 3 with the form factor and size of the Galaxy S4 but with one key difference: It sports a metal body.
Samsung Galaxy J (SGH-N075T) specifications:
- Processor: 2.3GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 800
- Operating system: Google Android 4.3 Jelly Bean
- Cellular connectivity: LTE Cat 4, HSPA+ 42Mbps, GPRS, EDGE
- Other connectivity: GPS/GLONASS, 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0
- Display: 5-inch Full HD (1080×1920) Super AMOLED

The Samsung Galaxy J will launch in Taiwan sometime between now and early January. It will sell for TW$21,900 (about CA$790) outright. It remains to be seen if Samsung will make the Galaxy J in additional markets but it is unlikely to make its way to North America with Samsung focused here on the Galaxy S4 and Galaxy Note 3.
