Anycall

Background
Anycall (Korean: 애니콜) was a South Korean mobile phone brand established by Samsung Electronics in 1993. Like other mobile phone brands in South Korea, they provide technology such as cameras, internet access, and digital TV through Digital Multimedia Broadcasting. Samsung mobile phones were sold through the Anycall brand in South Korea and the greater China area prior to 2011.
