From the LG Prada to the HTC Touch, fancy touch screen-based cells have been trying to rain on Apple’s iPhone parade since it dropped last year. Today, Samsung released the Anycall Haptic, a thinner iPhone competitor, to their South Korean market. The twist? It has 22 kinds of vibrations built in, which allows the phone to simulate the feel of various actions. For example, when you change the volume, it releases a sound and vibration that mimics an old school radio. No plans to release this phone in the U.S. market have been announced yet, but it’s retailing in Korea for around $700-$800.

Watch the commercial for the Haptic (featuring Korean actress Jun Ji-hyun) after the jump…
