Another slim phone from Pantech

Pantech will be introducing their slimmest handset model yet, next month in a bid to appeal to design-conscious consumers, reports Yonhap News.

"The 9.9-millimeter-thick model will be the slimmest slide-type phone ever launched in the local market, the company said. Currently, the slimmest phone is Samsung Electronics' 12.9-millimeter-thick Ultra Edition model.

The slim design was made possible by using a magnet instead of a spring to smoothly open and close the handset, it said."
