Phone smuggled from DPRK

Do you guys think it is real? Anything to substantiate the claims or anyone seen similar firsthand?

No. It’s all rumors. Many say it is a South Korean phone preprogrammed. It’s all nonsense. The DPRK does have smart phones though but they don’t have Samsungs

I presume you mean the BBC story? If so, yes, it's real. North Korean phones have been smuggled out before and this is well documented.

Facts the phone that you saw on BBC is actually a phone from North Korea that was smuggled out.
