Verizon's Samsung Stratosphere specs unveiled

Verizon's Samsung Stratosphere specs unveiled

Posted on Oct 04, 2011 by MG1

Remember the Samsung Stratosphere, one of those devices we’ve seen on Verizon’s leaked roadmap? Well we now have additional details to report about it, compliments of DroidLife which managed to get its hands on two charts comparing Samsung’s baby with some other smartphones.
But first, let’s talk about the specs. The Stratosphere is a device that we would most easily describe as Verizon’s version of Sprint’s Epic 4G. It’s pretty much the original Samsung Galaxy S under the hood, adding the ever-useful physical QWERTY keyboard to the mix. In that sense, it comes with a 4-inch WVGA Super AMOLED touchscreen, single-core 1GHz processor, 5-megapixel camera on the back, 1.3-megapixel front-facing ...

Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 coming to T-Mobile October 26

Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 coming to T-Mobile October 26

Posted on Oct 04, 2011 by MG1

Some internal T-Mobile documents are indicating their version of the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 will be going on sale October 26 (barring any delays). T-Mobile will be joining multiple retailers here in the US who currently offer the popular razor-thin slate.
This is pretty awesome news for the T-Mo faithful, especially given the legal troubles that Samsung and Apple are currently entangled in around the world. Right now, the Galaxy Tab 10.1 is seeing injunctions in Australia and Germany. Honestly, consumers living in the United States should probably be feeling a bit fortunate that they are still able to get their hands on this beautiful piece of hardware without any problems. Really, we feel ...

T-Mobile joins Samsung in court fight against Apple

T-Mobile joins Samsung in court fight against Apple

Posted on Oct 04, 2011 by MG1

According to a recent court filing, T-Mobile has taken sides with Samsung in the company's court battle with Apple. T-Mobile contends that an injunction against the sale of Samsung products in the U.S. would harm the carrier and its customers.
T-Mobile's primary concern is with holiday sales, as it claims that "at this late date, T-Mobile could not find comparable replacement products for the 2011 holiday season." T-Mobile's holiday marketing campaigns prominently feature the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S II smartphone and Galaxy Tab 10.1 tablet, both of which are in danger of being banned in the U.S. if Apple is awarded an injunction.
T-Mobile is the second carrier to take sides with Samsung, f...

Samsung Galaxy S II now available at AT&T

Samsung Galaxy S II now available at AT&T

Posted on Oct 03, 2011 by MG3

Now available online and in AT&T's stores (in the morning, that is), is the carrier's version of the Samsung Galaxy S II. Unlike the Sprint and T-Mobile versions, both of which are equipped with a 4.52 Super AMOLED display, the AT&T variant has a smaller 4.3 inch screen. Under the hood of this unit is the dual-core 1.2GHz Exynos processor also found in the Sprint model. When we put this handset through its paces, it scored a mind-numbing 3,733 on the Quadrant Benchmark test. The phone is available for a price of $199.99 after a signed 2-year contract.

T-Mobile to launch Samsung GALAXY Tab 10.1 on October 26th and rollout 6 devices on November 2nd

Posted on Oct 03, 2011 by MG3

T-Mobile reps have a ton of work ahead of them this month and next. A leaked calendar shows all of the things that employees of the nation's fourth largest carrier have to do in October. The first thing, not even mentioned in any of the leaked documents, is to answer calls from angry customers calling to find out why the carrier is the only one of the top four mobile operators in the U.S. not to offer the Apple iPhone. Earlier Saturday, we showed you Radio Shack's inventory system which displayed versions of the iPhone 5 for Verizon, AT&T and Sprint.

Walmart undercuts Amazon, charges $148.88 for the AT&T version of the Samsung Galaxy S II

Walmart undercuts Amazon, charges $148.88 for the AT&T version of the Samsung Galaxy S II

Posted on Oct 03, 2011 by MG3

In the old days, there used to be competition among brick and mortar stores like Macy's, Gimbels, Sears and E.J. Korvette's. Now, there is extremely fierce battles between discount stores like Walmart and online retailers like Amazon. Of course, back in the days of Korvette's, a smartphone would have been considered magic. A device that fits in the palm of your hand that could make phone calls would have seemed hard enough to believe, but throw in all the media content and data that today's smartphones bring to you, and the speeds at which this information becomes available in the palm of your hand, and it all would seem like science fiction.

Samsung Stratosphere lays it all out with spec sheet treatment

Samsung Stratosphere lays it all out with spec sheet treatment

Posted on Oct 03, 2011 by MG3

The upcoming Samsung Stratosphere for Verizon Wireless is hardly a secret, but other than a few rumored details, the specs for this LTE-equipped QWERTY slider have remained a bit of a mystery. Now, all that has changed, thanks in large part to its leaked spec sheet from Big Red -- just take a peek after the break. It'll be packing a 4-inch Super AMOLED display with WVGA resolution, a (presumably) single-core 1GHz processor, along with 512MB of RAM, 4GB of internal storage and a 4GB microSD card that's pre-installed. Curiously, it'll be the first of Verizon's LTE phones to incorporate a Micro SIM in place of the larger, traditional offering. Other than that, it looks as if the speculation of ...

Samsung proposes secret deal with Apple in Australia

Samsung proposes secret deal with Apple in Australia

Posted on Oct 03, 2011 by MG3

Filed in: SamsungApple

Samsung recently offered Apple a secret deal in Australia that could potentially allow the South Korea-based phone maker to put its Galaxy Tab 10.1 tablet on store shelves as soon as next week, The Wall Street Journal said Friday. Samsung’s lawyer David Catterns discussed the deal briefly in the Federal Court in Sydney but did not divulge the details of Samsung’s offer. However, Apple lawyer Stephen Burley suggested the iPhone maker may be interested in taking Samsung up on the offer. Samsung’s “inconvenience would be diminished and we would be comforted” if the deal was accepted, Burley explained. Apple and Samsung are locked up in multiple patent-related lawsuits around the globe, as Apple...

Samsung Galaxy W visits FCC with AT&T bands

Samsung Galaxy W visits FCC with AT&T bands

Posted on Oct 03, 2011 by MG3

The Samsung Galaxy W has just stopped by the FCC packing bands that are compatible with the AT&T network that suggests it could possibly arrive in the states sometime in the near future.
The Samsung Galaxy W has all of the makings of a mid-range smartphone when you consider the competition. It is an Android 2.3 Gingerbread device that packs a 3.7-inch display. Under the hood of the Galaxy W is a single-core 1.4GHz processor. That speed doesn’t shout mid-range but in a world ruled by other Android-powered handsets that are powered by dual-core processors it gets that title by default. The Galaxy W also has 512MB of RAM.

The Samsung Galaxy Note has passed through the FCC with AT&T bands

Posted on Oct 03, 2011 by MG3

The massive Samsung Galaxy Note with its 5.3-inch Super AMOLED display has just passed through the FCC with support for AT&T 3G bands suggesting its release is just around the corner.
The Samsung Galaxy Note is somewhat of a hybrid device. It is a cross between a smartphone and a tablet which is similar to what Dell tried to accomplish with the original Streak. Not only does the Galaxy Note pack a whopping 5.3-inch Super AMOLED display (with an equally impressive 1280x800 resolution), it is powered by a dual-core 1.4GHz processor and 1GB of RAM.

White Samsung Galaxy S II hitting Canada's Bell on October 7th

White Samsung Galaxy S II hitting Canada's Bell on October 7th

Posted on Oct 03, 2011 by MG3

Well if all those British carriers can get the white version of the Samsung Galaxy S II, so can a Canada-based operator. Bell Mobility is Samsung’s “partner in crime” and will start selling the super-sexy smartphone on October 7th. In other words, if you live in Canada, still haven’t “pushed the button” and grabbed some device, maybe it’s wise to wait for one more week. You’ll be able to grab this baby… or perhaps the Apple iPhone 5 (or that’s 4S). If you do choose to “take the Android road,” you’ll have to pour out CA$149.95 for the white Galaxy S II along with committing on a way-too-long three-year contract. Alternatively, you will be able to cash out CA$599.95 and grab the phone sans any...

Major Security Hole Uncovered in Samsung Galaxy S II for AT&T

Major Security Hole Uncovered in Samsung Galaxy S II for AT&T

Posted on Oct 03, 2011 by MG3

While reviewing the new Samsung Galaxy S II for AT&T, the folks at BGR noted something unusual. With the right combination of button presses, the device’s pattern and PIN lock screens can be bypassed. This makes locking the phone essentially pointless. The real ‘uh-oh’ here is that AT&T and Samsung were unaware of this flaw, uncovered by a simple reviewer.
