The first Samsung Android Phone running Android 2.1, which also happens to be the first Samsung Android Phone for the home market of South Korea, has just been announced. Enjoy these pictures of the Samsung SHW-M100S which we’re hoping will get a cuter name when it is launched on SK Telecom in March.

With a 3.7-inch AMOLED screen, the device packs an 800 MHz processor, 5-megapixel camera with 720p video recording, 3.5mm headphone jack, and DivX support.  The SHW-M100S runs Samsung’s TouchWiz user interface on top of Android – a major point of contention for some.  Given the lukewarm feelings surrounding TouchWiz, it will be interesting to see how the device is received by consumers.

The Samsung SHW-M100S is slated for SK Telecom (and only SKT) at this time.  Despite the plans to keep it in South Korea for now, it’s nice to see Samsung ship a device with Android 2.1 pre-installed.
