Samsung’s new Android flagship smartphone the Galaxy S II is just around the corner, but Samsung is still keen to tease us with this very sexy phone. The new handset will bring with it a revised version of Sammy’s Android skin, TouchWiz 4.0, which will harness the motion sensors inside the phone to allow you to zoom in and out of webpages as well as navigate the UI with the movement of your hands.

Basically, instead of the traditional pinch-to-zoom, resting two fingers atop the screen will allow you to zoom in by bringing the S II closer to your face or zoom out by holding it further away — a naturalistic gesture that makes all the sense in the world to us. Might seem cool, but still very gimmicky, I think I’d still prefer multitouch zooming as it seem rather awkward to move the phone forward and backward just to zoom and read.

Also, when adding new widgets to your home panels, you’ll be able to move between them by propelling the phone laterally. It’s quirky and appealing stuff, see it on video below.
