Samsung Galaxy Z pics sneak online
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesSamsungGalaxy R
A new smartphone from Samsung has been announced by Three in Sweden, the Samsung Galaxy Z.
As Samsung hasn't revealed the handset itself we are not sure if this was a slip by Three, with the handset looking like a slightly less powerful variation of the Samsung Galaxy S2.
Specs-wise, the Samsung Galaxy Z is dual-core, packing two 1GHz Cortex-A9 cores, it's powered by Tegra 2 and has a 5MP camera and can shoot 720p video.
Considering the Samsung Galaxy S2 has a dual 1.2GHz processor, it is definitely the more powerful handset but the Galaxy Z is still an impressive piece of kit.
The 4.2-inch display isn't SuperAMOLED but it is SC-LCD with a WXGA resolution. When it comes to memory, there's 8G...

Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesSamsungGalaxy R
Been lusting after the Galaxy S II, but aren't willing to break the bank? We hear you, and apparently Samsung does too. Up for pre-order today, on the Swedish arm of Three, is the Galaxy Z -- billed as a more affordable spawn from its Korean progenitor. The Gingerbread-toting handset will sport a 4.2-inch Super Clear LCD, 1GHz dual core processor (rumored to be Tegra 2), and 8GB of onboard storage, extensible with microSD.

Samsung Conquer 4G redefines the entry level Android smartphone, drops TouchWiz
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesSamsungConquer 4G
There’s nothing we love more than a vanilla build of Android, especially when it’s Android Gingerbread. Samsung has quietly announced ‘Conquer 4G’, its new entry level Android smartphone destined for a US release on Sprint’s 4G WiMax network.
When you hear entry level and Android used in the same sentence, the last thing you’d expect to hear is a 1 GHz processor. Surprisingly that’s exactly what’s inside the Conquer 4G, along with a 3.5-inch HVGA resolution touchscreen, 3.2-megapixel camera, 1.3-megapixel front facing camera and Tri-band CDMA support.

TBH app leaks Gingerbread for Droid Charge
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesOperating SystemsSamsungGoogleAndroid 2.3Droid Charge
Team Black Hat's got a trick or two up its (we assume) matching black sleeve and it smells like Gingerbread 2.3.3 to us. Released via the hacking outfit's eponymous non-Android market app, this unofficial upgrade ups your Droid Charge's ante -- literally, as the app costs $2.99. Available in both carrier-bloat and non-bloated varieties, custom ROM-flashing addicts can now take this leak for a spin, and always downgrade via P3Droid's handy tweeted directions. Cost-conscious Charge owners shouldn't feel sidelined since the generous blokes behind TBH intend on distributing this gratis... in the next 48 hours. If waiting's not your game and you need this now, be sure to check the source for a bl...

Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesSamsungGalaxy S II
Recently, we reported that a leaked screenshot indicated that the Samsung Galaxy S II will be making its way to Bell in the north, but now we’re finally getting an official confirmation regarding the matter.
Going by the name of the Samsung Galaxy S II 4G, with its support for theoretical speeds up to 21Mbps, the handset is now being teased on Bell’s web site for all to see. Although we can safely say that the highly awaited handset will indeed be coming to Bell, we’re still left in the dark regarding its pricing and availability. As we’ve reported already, the handset is more than likely gearing up for some kind of mid-July release.

Samsung rumored making Galaxy S II Plus with 1.4GHz chip
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesSamsung
Samsung is rumored to be working on a high-end iPhone 5 rival, says Pop Herald. The phone, which may or may not be known as the Galaxy S II Plus, would sport a 1.4GHz processor instead of the 1.2GHz in the current S II. The iPhone 5 is expected to arrive in September, and would mean flagship handsets from competitors would be about six months behind.
There should also be 1GB of RAM onboard and Android 2.3.4 overlaid by the TouchWiz UI. Google Talk with video call support would come with the new OS build. The device, whatever its name, is expected to launch in August or September.
Samsung has already been having strong sales of the current S II and may have little incentive to upgrade the pho...

Leak reveals Samsung's first Android slider for Verizon
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesOperating SystemsSamsungVerizon WirelessGoogleAndroid
PocketNow obtained a couple of leaked photographs of a Samsung device that is apparently the SCH-i405. For the Korean based manufacturer, it will be its first Android flavored device with a side-sliding QWERTY keyboard for Verizon, and has a resemblance to the Samsung Epic 4G that currently resides at Sprint.
The SCH-i405 model number puts the handset right after the Samsung Continuum which means that the specs, when released, probably won't blow your mind. The phone did receive Bluetooth and Wi-Fi certification but has yet to meet the august members of the FCC. That gives us about 6-8 weeks before a possible launch on Verizon. Of course, most of the carrier's customers have their heart and ...

Orange UK will soon start selling two Android smartphones. The first of the two is the HTC Sensation, which we know as the monster phone thanks to its specs that include a dual-core processor, 4.3-inch qHD capacitive touchscreen, 8-megapixel camera, HSPA and Wi-Fi connectivity, an array of sensors and so on. You name it, this baby has it. It’s one of the best smartphones announced to date, if not the best. We’ve no doubts Orange will offer the Sensation for free to anyone willing to commit on a plan starting at 30 or 35 GBP a month.
Then there’s the Samsung Galaxy Mini, which for many will be the first smartphone they ever bought. It should cost next to nothing, even free with some not-that-...

Samsung Epic 4G to get the Android 2.3.3 Gingerbread update? Leaked firmware suggests so
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesSamsungEpic 4G
On the heels of the recently leaked Android 2.3.3 Gingerbread update for Samsung Captivate, SamFirmware managed to grab the same software for another member of the Galaxy S family – Sprint’s Epic 4G, which (if you recall) rocks a full side-sliding QWERTY keyboard in addition to the 4-inch touchscreen.
As you can imagine, this isn’t the official yet. Rather the process of updating will require some technical skills and there’s also a risk of your device being bricked if something goes wrong. In any case, you can’t hold IntoMobile responsible… A short disclaimer I had to add.

Samsung Galaxy S II Launching Into Space on July 15th
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesSamsungGalaxy S II
Most phones don’t get the chance to say they’ve been outside our atmosphere, but the Samsung Galaxy S II isn’t most phones. Samsung’s latest super phone is taking a very special trip outside our layer of the atmosphere and chilling out 98,000 feet above sea level in the layer called the stratosphere. This trip is a special promotional stunt by Samsung and will take place July 14th. This same stunt was performed with the Nexus S, and it’s meant to show how strong these phones are.
This whole thing happens with the help of a specially made weather balloon that has been made to reach that height. Samsung has tested this weather balloon many times, so it’s good to know that they do this before l...

Bell to offer Samsung Galaxy S II on July 14th
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesSamsungGalaxy S II
The Samsung Galaxy S II is getting closer and closer to U.S. soil. On Monday, a leaked screenshot revealed that Canada's Bell will be launching the sizzling hot handset on July 14th. The screenshot did not divulge any news on pricing. This discovery follows by a few days a tweet from fellow Canadian carrier SaskTel saying that the highly anticipated device will be available from the mobile operator some time next month.
Last month, online retailer Wireless Xcessories Group had listed on its web site a silicon case on sale for the Samsung Galaxy S II. As we reported, the listing leaked out the news that the Galaxy S II will be rolled out to three of the top four carriers in the U.S. as the V...

T-Mobile hints that the Samsung Galaxy S 4G will be on sale for free come June 22
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesSamsungGalaxy S 4G
Besides the 4G moniker in its name, there isn’t much to visually differentiate the Samsung Galaxy S 4G with the Samsung Vibrant – and even worse, it’s rather difficult to side with it considering its $149.99 on-contract price right now. Naturally, for $50 more, you can seemingly pick up newer devices like the HTC Sensation 4G.
