Details of a new Samsung Android smartphone have emerged, the SHV-E120L, suggesting an LTE-toting 4.7-inch uberhandset with a 720p-capable display. Spotted in spec form on a Korean forum by Blog of Mobile, the mystery device is tipped to have a 1.5GHz dual-core Qualcomm MSM8660 processor and an 8-megapixel camera.

Otherwise there's a 2-megapixel front-facing camera, 1GB of RAM and 16GB of storage, along with WiFi b/g/n (with both 2.4GHz and 5GHz support) and Bluetooth 3.0. NFC and GPS are onbaord, together with a 3-axis gyroscope and an accelerometer. In addition to 800MHz LTE there's 2.1Mbps HSPA support and triband GSM.

The SHV-E120L looks to be a Korea-specific device, given that Samsung has apparently packed a DMB digital TV tuner inside. In all, if it's authentic it looks to be quite the challenger to the freshly-announced HTC Raider 4G, though there's no telling if it will spawn a North American or European version.
