According to the latest news on the Web, Samsung might get ready to launch yet another dual SIM phone on the market. An official photo of the new handset has been leaked to the web, and the device is reported to come under the name of Samsung B5702.

The new rumored Samsung B5702 comes with the letter B in its name, which supposedly stands for Business, unlike its predecessors, which had a D included in their names, designating the dual SIM capabilities, and it seems to come to the market as a successor of the already-known Samsung D880 DuoS.

The specification list of the new dual-SIM handset is still unknown at this point, but it might feature a QVGA display with 256K colors, although this hasn't been confirmed. In addition to that, the photo shows that the phone might come with an info LED system placed above the display, something that should tell users which SIM card is being in use.

As many of you might already know, Samsung was the first company to ever come to the market with mobile phones that would feature support for two SIM cards at the same time. The B5702 should become the fifth such device released by the company, following the Samsung D880 Duos, Samsung D780, Samsung D980, as well as Samsung S9502 Duos. LG has also unveiled recently a dual-SIM device, dubbed LG KS660.

Since the Samsung B5702 seems to be the successor of D880 Duos, there are some who expect it to be a little thinner than its predecessor, which came with a nice 18.9mm in thickness. We're hoping that the company will soon disclose more info on the device, both on the feature side, as well as on the phone's pricing and availability. We should notice however that this kind of devices is commonly targeted at the Eastern European and Asian markets.
