Aside from its software and hardware specifications, Samsung also introduced a unique a hole in the phone's shell to accommodate the Japanese perceived penchant for personalizing their mobile phones.[2] The Galaxy Feel's battery was also touted as a major selling point since the market favors handsets with longer battery life.[2] The device is also waterproof and supports 1seg digital broadcasts using an antenna that is sold separately.
