Samsung Electronics has teamed up with Google and SK Telecom in an attempt to dethrone Apple as the leader on the domestic smartphone market. 

"Samsung can take on Apple and the Galaxy S will lead the way," Shin Jong-kyun, president of Samsung's mobile division, said in a news conference unveiling the latest Samsung smartphone. Top executives from Google and SK Telecom were also present. 

The unveiling came on the heels of Steve Jobs' presentation of the latest iPhone 4 model. KT, Apple's Korean partner, said that the smartphone will be marketed here from July.

The Galaxy has everything Samsung can throw into the smartphone: It has a "Super AMOLED" screen, which makes the gadget more power-efficient and gives sharper pictures.

The 1GHz processor provides an improved touch-screen experience, and talks are underway with Google to offer more customized applications.
