Panasonic gave its new smartphone for Europe a name on Monday. "The Eluga," which will be the first Panasonic phone to debut outside of Japan since 2005, is set to go on sale this March.

The Japanese manufacturer had announced its intentions to re-enter the smartphone market in Europe this Spring, and it unveiled a nameless prototype of a smartphone in December. Panasonic announced the prototype's name, Eluga, at the Panasonic Convention 2012 on Monday.

The 4.3-inch phone, according to The Verge, has a 960 X 540 resolution and is NFC-enabled.
