The Samsung SCH-u470, or Juke, is a mobile phone offered exclusively by Verizon Wireless. It was released in 2007 in three colors: red, teal, and navy. The phone is a music player when closed, and swivels for use of the mobile phone. It also has a VGA-resolution camera with a special "night shot" mode for taking photos in low light conditions.

The Juke includes 2 GB of flash memory with 1.87 GB available for storage of music. Over-the-air V CAST music downloads are not available. The phone does not have a microSD card slot; users cannot expand the 1.87 GB of internal memory.

The official song for this phone is "Juke Box Hero" by Foreigner. But on the commercial, it was misspelled "Jukebox Hero".

It supports MP3, WMA, WMA Pro, AAC, and AAC+ file formats natively, instead of converting them to WMAs like most other V CAST phones require.

In Europe, it is known as the F210, and is sold under T-Mobile UK and O2 Telecom. In Australia, it was mistakenly titled the Jukebox, until executives clarified the error.[citation needed]
