Motorola Spyder revealed with Super AMOLED qHD screen, dual-core, and LTE

What has just been revealed is apparently codenamed the Motorola Spyder but sources are calling this the DROID RAZR. I’m not sure if I’m more excited to see the name RAZR be revived, or the fact it has a qHD 960 x 540 Super AMOLED display. More details and images after the break.</div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> <span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; line-height: 1.5;"></span></div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> According to the leaks received by Thisismynext this powerhouse smartphone basically has it all, and then some. Featuring a 1.2 GHz dual-core processor (unknown at this point), 1GB of RAM, 8MP rear camera with dual LED flash and then what they are calling an HD front facing camera too. Initial leaks are pegging this to be quite similar to the DROID Bionic and I’d have to agree.</div> <div mce_style="text-align: center;" style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px; text-align: center;"> <img alt="" class="size-medium wp-image-54715 aligncenter" height="324" mce_src="http://img17.imageshack.us/img17/7018/spyder1271x540.jpg" src="http://img17.imageshack.us/img17/7018/spyder1271x540.jpg" style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; clear: both; color: #444444; display: block; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; margin-top: 0px; max-width: 640px;" title="spyder-1" width="163" /></div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> Now for the exciting part. They mention this Motorola Spyder will come with a Super AMOLED qHD display. Taking both the high resolution 960 x 540 from the qHD line and blending it with the amazing and vivid colors and contrast from an AMOLED display. I don’t know about you guys but that just sounds awesome. Some may remember the DROID HD that was leaked back in August and it appears to be the same smartphone.</div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> I like the fact they may revive the once iconic and hugely popular RAZR brand as it had a great run back in the days. Looking over the leaked images below it appears to be very similar to both the Bionic and the Droid X — having a similar small volume rocker, and maybe even the slight curve around back as we’ve seen so many times. We can expect a wide array of docks, web tops, and accessories just like previously launched Motorola smartphones with the DROID RAZR too. Take note the micro-USB and micro-HDMI appear to have a cover or door to conceal them if the photo renders below are what we’ll see come launch.</div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> Interesting leak for this early Saturday that is for sure. We should hear and see more and hopefully this amazing looking phone doesn’t get delayed too many times like our friend the Bionic.</div> </div> </div>

Google, who plans to have over half of all Android phones to be equipped with NFC, has partnered with big name brands such as macy’s, Subway, Walgreens, Toys R’ Us, and American Eagle in addition to over 100,000 other stores in the US to bring NFC nationwide.</div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> Further adding validity to the launch date, the launch of Google Wallet tomorrow would also align itself with the start of the NFC World Congress in France.

HTC Runnymede press shot leaks, looks pretty in white

Now we have our first official press shot of the upcoming 4.7″ Android smartphone packing those music notes from Beats Audio. More details after the break.</div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> <span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; line-height: 1.5;"></span></div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> Looking a bit like the HTC Titan this Android 2.3.4 Gingerbread phone is packing a much anticipated punch. Dressed in white the HTC Runnymede rumored specs are a 1.5 Ghz single-core processor and a huge 4.7″ qHD 540 x 960 resolution display, 1GB RAM, an 8MP camera with dual LED flash. We are also hearing not only will it have an entirely aluminum design on back but also powered with some Beats Audio.</div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> With the rumored single-core processor being the weakest link with everything else sounding amazing we are still hopeful for a dual-core processor. According to the spec sheet we can also expect the 8 MP camera to be one of if not the best smartphone camera with a wide angle lens and a f stop of f/2.2 that should really make for an excellent camera. I’ve been waiting for phone manufacturers to focus on lens specs rather than the megapixel number and it appears HTC is doing just that.</div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> We still don’t have much for details but may get more information at the upcoming HTC Event on the 20th of September. Hopefully we get more juicy details on this Beats Audio infused device soon and maybe some actual hands-on photos so stay tuned.</div> </div> </div>

This is a full five minute tour of what they’re saying is HTC Sense 3.5 UI, looking not just a whole heck of a lot different from Sense 3.0, the version seen on the newest HTC devices, specifically the HTC Sensation, a rather lovely device if I may say so myself. Transitions have been smoothed out, details have been sharpened, and the whole thing looks just a tiny bit neater – shine and gleam all around.</div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> <span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; line-height: 1.5;"></span></div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> The largest change you’re going to find here is the complete disappearance of the long standing three-button Sense launcher bar normally sitting at the bottom of your display. Instead you’ll have a completely separate app drawer and phone keys. There’s a brand new ability to add and remove homescreens now, and Widgets have been tweaked as well. Smells nice, doesn’t it?</div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> What we’re seeing here is an upgrade to what yours truly considers one of the better out of the box user interfaces delivered by a manufacturer since Android began. Sense 3.0 has treated this team quite well, this upgrade to 3.5 is set to be the buffed-up and much more magical version of a winner. Expect to see this user interface on the HTC Holiday (aka HTC Raider), the HTC Vigor, the HTC Bliss, and maybe even the HTC EVO Design 4G. Be there!</div> </div> </div>

This bad boy pictured below is the new HTC Vigor that will be landing on Verizon sometime early October if leaks are correct. This will be the replacement to the HTC Thunderbolt. Yes the Vigor will be that awesome. Although at first look this looks very similar to the HTC Incredible with the weird backing and red accents, just saying.</div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> <span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; line-height: 1.5;"></span></div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> First leaks of the Vigor suggested a 1.5 Ghz dual-core CPU, Verizon 4G LTE, a 4.3″ 720p HD display with the qHD branding and more. While details are still very thin with this just leaking it does look pretty and we also have a picture of the front.</div> <div mce_style="text-align: center;" style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px; text-align: center;"> <img alt="" class="size-medium wp-image-49704 aligncenter" height="324" mce_src="http://img696.imageshack.us/img696/1451/htcvigor4283x540.jpg" src="http://img696.imageshack.us/img696/1451/htcvigor4283x540.jpg" style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; clear: both; color: #444444; display: block; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; margin-top: 0px; max-width: 640px;" title="htc-vigor4" width="170" /></div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> The more I look at the pictures this seriously just looks like a Droid Incredible, but then again we have this leaked roadmap clearly stating the HTC Vigor will replace the HTC Thunderbolt so some would assume it would be a bigger brother or something similar. We don’t have a kickstand and the rear does look nothing like the Thunderbolt so this could very well be some sort of follow up to the Incredible to carry along with DROID branding, Maybe the HTC Droid Incredible LTE.</div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> HTC recently acquired Beats Audio and we heard a few sources suggest phones would get some sort of branding in the future but we aren’t seeing that here either. What does everyone think? Incredible LTE or a Thunderbolt replacement?</div> </div> </div>

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; line-height: 24px;"></span><br /> <div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 12px; font: normal normal normal 13px/19px Georgia, 'Times New Roman', 'Bitstream Charter', Times, serif; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; max-width: 640px; padding-bottom: 0.6em; padding-left: 0.6em; padding-right: 0.6em; padding-top: 0.6em;"> <div mce_style="text-align: center;" style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px; text-align: center;"> <img alt="" class="aligncenter" height="238" mce_src="http://img402.imageshack.us/img402/3601/droidbionicpressshot154.jpg" src="http://img402.imageshack.us/img402/3601/droidbionicpressshot154.jpg" style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; clear: both; color: #444444; display: block; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; margin-top: 0px; max-width: 640px;" title="droid-bionic-press-shot1" width="324" />In other news today the Droid Bionic has been canceled… No not really but I thought it was worth a try. What we are seeing today though is a few new details and photos of the Bionic. These are actually press release images but its nice to finally see something other than a blurrycam shot by someone hiding their name and details. These new pictures also show us a glimpse of what to expect regarding the size, shape, and thickness of the upcoming Bionic.</div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> <span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; line-height: 1.5;"></span></div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> We are starting to feel the launch date approach, not to mention something has slipped or leaked regarding the Bionic almost daily for a while now. Check out the official Bionic teaser trailer here, or even a full video rundown on the phone in this video. Along with the press shots we also have a Bionic and Droid X2 image to compare thickness.</div> <div mce_style="text-align: center;" style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px; text-align: center;"> <img alt="" class="size-full wp-image-49670 aligncenter" height="240" mce_src="http://img594.imageshack.us/img594/8383/bionivsdroidx.jpg" src="http://img594.imageshack.us/img594/8383/bionivsdroidx.jpg" style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; clear: both; color: #444444; display: block; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; margin-top: 0px; max-width: 640px;" title="bioni-vs-droidx" width="107" /></div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> Seen in the image above the Bionic is a bit chunky compared to the Droid X2 but then that is only a render and we won’t know for sure until we have them both in are hands, and I assure you that will be soon. The Bionic does have a dual-core CPU and 4G LTE inside as well as what we are hearing to be a pretty large battery so that could explain some of the size differences. We did see some battery usage images leak but for now I’m taking those with a grain of salt. Either way I just want this phone to arrive already so I can enjoy it, review it, and possibly move on to bigger and better things. Droid HD or HTC Vigor anyone?</div> </div> </div>

HTC Vigor Gets Wi-Fi Certification

While this isn’t anything major, it’s one more step closer to us actually seeing and owning this awesome device. For those that might not remember much about the HTC Vigor, it will be the replacement for the HTC Thunderbolt over on Verizon Wireless. That alone should get you excited.</div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> <span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; line-height: 1.5;"></span></div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> In case you didn’t see the original details it was first leaked here and later confirmed to be an HTC device headed to Verizon with 4G LTE. It will sport a high resolution 1280x720p HD display that is at least 4.3″ or bigger, will have a 1.5 Ghz dual-core Snapdragon processor and come with Android 2.3.4 Gingerbread at launch.</div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> That isn’t the last of it though, we’ve recently spotted it on a leaked Verizon roadmap but that didn’t get us many details other than confirming it was coming soon. It was this full roadmap leak that tells us all about what Verizon has planned ahead. If you look closely we see the HTC Vigor is slated for an early October launch, and will be replacing the highly popular HTC Thunderbolt. We are expecting a pretty awesome device to knock off the flagship 4G LTE phone from Verizon, but we’ll have to wait and see.</div> </div> </div>

The most impressive and important one is at the bottom, the GT-I9250. This could very well be the Samsung Nexus Prime.

Then we see something like that last phone rumored for week 48 and that lines up better with initial ICS reports of a holiday release. Either way I just want to see these bad boys out in the wild already. Can you say Nexus!</div> </div> </div>

We have heard a few reports over the past few days regarding some odd sized devices coming from Samsung. We first saw these specs and th...

Samsung Hercules Pictures Leak, Including Benchmark Results

One of the first Samsung Hercules shots we’ve seen was also a leak running on Telus and tonight it’s no different. This is another clear picture of what to expect in the Hercules and it looks like the Nexus S and Galaxy S II combined into one beautiful device.</div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> <span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; line-height: 1.5;"></span></div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> These photos were spotted by MobileSyrup who was lucky enough to catch the Hercules running around in the wild. Also pictured are a few benchmark results showing some impressive numbers to say the least, it scores a solid 3300+ from what we are seeing initially. This 4.5″ screen packing 1.2 Ghz dual-core device sure looks better each time we see it and I can’t wait for the T-Mobile version to arrive.</div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> Those impressive benchmark results make me think this may be rocking the Samsung Exynos chip rather than the Qualcomm but at the moment exact details are still a little hard to come by. We have heard and seen so many different variations over the past few weeks that this could be either or. Would you rather have the original Galaxy S II with a smaller screen and the dedicated home button? Or do you like this 4.5″ screen flavor rocking the usual Android capacitive buttons? Either way I just can’t wait for it to arrive so I can get my paws on it.</div> </div> </div>

HTC Ruby for T-Mobile Spotted Again for the Blurry Cam

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; line-height: 24px;"></span><br /> <div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 12px; font: normal normal normal 13px/19px Georgia, 'Times New Roman', 'Bitstream Charter', Times, serif; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; max-width: 640px; padding-bottom: 0.6em; padding-left: 0.6em; padding-right: 0.6em; padding-top: 0.6em;"> <div mce_style="text-align: center;" style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px; text-align: center;"> <img alt="" class="aligncenter" height="324" mce_src="http://img853.imageshack.us/img853/2896/htcrubytmo365x540.jpg" src="http://img853.imageshack.us/img853/2896/htcrubytmo365x540.jpg" style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; clear: both; color: #444444; display: block; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; margin-top: 0px; max-width: 640px;" title="HTC-Ruby-TMO" width="219" />While this might not be all that blurry it still qualifies for a Mr. Blurry cam title. What we have here is what is rumored to be the T-Mobile HTC Ruby. We first saw this device in the reflection of the HTC Flyer and later a front shot revealing part of the T-Mobile logo but this latest photo should clear up any doubts.</div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> <span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; line-height: 1.5;"></span></div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> The Ruby is believed to be a mid-range offering and now we can safely say it’s headed for T-Mobile. The device has a very similar design to the HTC Sensation 4G while looking a bit like the myTouch 4G on top with the speaker grill — so it’s possible this might just be a very close twin to both of those devices. It is hard to tell from the image but it appears to be a 3.7″ or bigger screen with the bottom looking very similar to the Sensation it might even be 4.3″ but we don’t know for sure.</div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> This could be another dual-core 1.2 Ghz phone like the Sensation and myTouch 4G Slide but if they are planning it to be a mid-range device it might just come with a 1 Ghz CPU instead. We can clearly see it features a front facing camera and the previous leaked photos showed a rear camera with dual LED flash so we might need to consider this a mid-high end phone.</div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> HTC recently announced they will release an additional 6-8 devices this year and most likely the HTC Ruby is one of them. We will report back once we get any additional info or some official specs on the device.</div> </div> </div>

Samsung Galaxy S II For T-Mobile Pictured Clear as Day

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; line-height: 24px;"></span><br /> <div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 12px; font: normal normal normal 13px/19px Georgia, 'Times New Roman', 'Bitstream Charter', Times, serif; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; max-width: 640px; padding-bottom: 0.6em; padding-left: 0.6em; padding-right: 0.6em; padding-top: 0.6em;"> <div mce_style="text-align: center;" style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px; text-align: center;"> <img alt="" class="aligncenter" height="192" mce_src="http://img196.imageshack.us/img196/7614/galaxysiitmo540x320.jpg" src="http://img196.imageshack.us/img196/7614/galaxysiitmo540x320.jpg" style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; clear: both; color: #444444; display: block; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; margin-top: 0px; max-width: 640px;" title="Galaxy S II Tmo" width="324" />Yes Please! This is what we have been waiting for over at the Magenta carrier, a sign that they will in fact be getting the Samsung Galaxy S II superphone that everyone seems to love. Could this be the rumored Samsung Hercules. We recently saw this device pass the FCC under model SGH-T989 and now we know that is indeed the Galaxy S II. Now we must figure out if the Hercules will be something different or if it was just the codename for the SGSII.</div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> <span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; line-height: 1.5;"></span></div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> These pictures are pretty clear evidence that is for sure. We are seeing a beautiful device stamped with Galaxy S II and T-Mobile nicely on the back, it’s a great sight isn’t it? These pictures were kindly leaked and they’ve got me pretty excited as well as the photo from pocketnow. Some sources are claiming this is the Hercules and since not only are these leaks claiming to be a 4.5″ display and the Hercules was said to feature the same size screen this just might in fact be the Samsung Hercules aka SGSII.</div> <div mce_style="text-align: center;" style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px; text-align: center;"> <img alt="" class="size-medium wp-image-46281 aligncenter" height="191" mce_src="http://img233.imageshack.us/img233/9497/galaxysiitmo2540x319.jpg" src="http://img233.imageshack.us/img233/9497/galaxysiitmo2540x319.jpg" style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; clear: both; color: #444444; display: block; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; margin-top: 0px; max-width: 640px;" title="Galaxy S II Tmo 2" width="324" /></div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> Then below is the revealed photo from pocketnow that shows the front of the device a little clearer for everyone. We don’t see much of the Samsung Touch wiz UX but we can clearly see that tasty Android 2.3 Gingerbread up top. The ninja’s that leaked these are claiming it has a 4.5″ screen and is blazingly stupid fast. We have heard Samsung might be increasing the CPU speed to 1.2-1.5 Ghz to better compete with other devices and hopefully we will find out soon enough.</div> <div mce_style="text-align: center;" style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px; text-align: center;"> <img alt="" class="size-medium wp-image-46282 aligncenter" height="287" mce_src="http://img577.imageshack.us/img577/7074/galaxysiitmobile540x478.jpg" src="http://img577.imageshack.us/img577/7074/galaxysiitmobile540x478.jpg" style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; clear: both; color: #444444; display: block; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; margin-top: 0px; max-width: 640px;" title="Galaxy S II Tmobile" width="324" /></div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> These are all the pictures and details we have for now but at least this device has been confirmed as headed to T-Mobile. It’s out and in the wild so hopefully more details, pictures, and maybe even some video will be leaked in the near future — I’m sure we will be seeing more of this device soon so stay tuned.</div> </div> </div>

We have a super secret box that just arrived with nothing other than “Samsung” plastered across the front. After doing a bit of snooping and finally opening it we were greeted with following sentence. “Keep Watch For The Next Generation Galaxy S” and our man Vincent got super excited to see what was hiding in the box. Have any guesses guys?</div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia,'Bitstream Charter',serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> <span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia,'Bitstream Charter',serif; line-height: 1.5;"></span></div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia,'Bitstream Charter',serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> A Galaxy S II, a Chromebook, a Galaxy S III… what could it be? If you somehow guessed a telescope you’d be correct. We got a shiny new device that is hopefully just as fast as the previous generation Galaxy S, only this time it came with a tri-pod and no processor.</div> <div mce_style="text-align: center;" style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia,'Bitstream Charter',serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px; text-align: center;"> <img alt="" class="size-medium wp-image-44388 aligncenter" height="215" mce_src="http://img849.imageshack.us/img849/1235/samsunggalaxysiiteaser6.jpg" src="http://img849.imageshack.us/img849/1235/samsunggalaxysiiteaser6.jpg" style="border-width: 0px; clear: both; color: #444444; display: block; font-family: Georgia,'Bitstream Charter',serif; line-height: 1.5; margin: 0px auto 12px; max-width: 640px;" title="Samsung-Galaxy-S-II-teaser-6" width="324" /></div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia,'Bitstream Charter',serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> If this isn’t a tease from Samsung I don’t know what is. We have been hearing reports and rumors for weeks regarding the Galaxy S II finally hitting the U.S. and now they go and do this. We’ve seen leaks suggesting Verizon will get it first and packing 4G LTE. AT&T has it headed to their shelves in the form of a Slider, and even a 4G WiMax powered version recently hit the FCC. Basically what all this means is one of the best, if not the best mobile device is headed to the U.S. and soon.</div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia,'Bitstream Charter',serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> Samsung just had to tease everyone by sending a few telescopes out to remind everyone to “keep watch”. Trust me when I say this, we are watching and waiting patiently but now you better hurry and deliver — Thanks for the telescope though, we love it!</div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia,'Bitstream Charter',serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> <img alt="Samsung-Galaxy-S-II-teaser-2" class="attachment-thumbnail" height="150" mce_src="http://img837.imageshack.us/img837/9959/samsunggalaxysiiteaser2.jpg" src="http://img837.imageshack.us/img837/9959/samsunggalaxysiiteaser2.jpg" style="border-width: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: Georgia,'Bitstream Charter',serif; line-height: 1.5; margin: 0px; max-width: 640px;" title="Samsung-Galaxy-S-II-teaser-2" width="150" /><br style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia,'Bitstream Charter',serif; line-height: 1.5;" /><img alt="Samsung-Galaxy-S-II-teaser-6" class="attachment-thumbnail" height="150" mce_src="http://img233.imageshack.us/img233/1235/samsunggalaxysiiteaser6.jpg" src="http://img233.imageshack.us/img233/1235/samsunggalaxysiiteaser6.jpg" style="border-width: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: Georgia,'Bitstream Charter',serif; line-height: 1.5; margin: 0px; max-width: 640px;" title="Samsung-Galaxy-S-II-teaser-6" width="150" /><br style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia,'Bitstream Charter',serif; line-height: 1.5;" /><img alt="Samsung-Galaxy-S-II-teaser-1" class="attachment-thumbnail" height="150" mce_src="http://img543.imageshack.us/img543/5049/samsunggalaxysiiteaser1.jpg" src="http://img543.imageshack.us/img543/5049/samsunggalaxysiiteaser1.jpg" style="border-width: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: Georgia,'Bitstream Charter',serif; line-height: 1.5; margin: 0px; max-width: 640px;" title="Samsung-Galaxy-S-II-teaser-1" width="150" /><br style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia,'Bitstream Charter',serif; line-height: 1.5;" /><img alt="Samsung-Galaxy-S-II-teaser-3" class="attachment-thumbnail" height="150" mce_src="http://img803.imageshack.us/img803/373/samsunggalaxysiiteaser3.jpg" src="http://img803.imageshack.us/img803/373/samsunggalaxysiiteaser3.jpg" style="border-width: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: Georgia,'Bitstream Charter',serif; line-height: 1.5; margin: 0px; max-width: 640px;" title="Samsung-Galaxy-S-II-teaser-3" width="150" /><br style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia,'Bitstream Charter',serif; line-height: 1.5;" /><img alt="Samsung-Galaxy-S-II-teaser-4" class="attachment-thumbnail" height="150" mce_src="http://img819.imageshack.us/img819/2227/samsunggalaxysiiteaser4.jpg" src="http://img819.imageshack.us/img819/2227/samsunggalaxysiiteaser4.jpg" style="border-width: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: Georgia,'Bitstream Charter',serif; line-height: 1.5; margin: 0px; max-width: 640px;" title="Samsung-Galaxy-S-II-teaser-4" width="150" /><br style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia,'Bitstream Charter',serif; line-height: 1.5;" /><img alt="Samsung-Galaxy-S-II-teaser-5" class="attachment-thumbnail" height="150" mce_src="http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/5445/samsunggalaxysiiteaser5.jpg" src="http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/5445/samsunggalaxysiiteaser5.jpg" style="border-width: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: Georgia,'Bitstream Charter',serif; line-height: 1.5; margin: 0px; max-width: 640px;" title="Samsung-Galaxy-S-II-teaser-5" width="150" /></div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia,'Bitstream Charter',serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> )</div> </div> </span></div>

This is the HTC Ignite and it appears to have that same build quality and design that we are used to from HTC. We don’t know much regarding the device pictured but our sources claim it has a few brothers coming as well but we are still waiting for more details.</div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia,'Bitstream Charter',serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> <span class="Apple-style-span" mce_name="strong" mce_style="font-weight: bold;" style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia,'Bitstream Charter',serif; font-weight: bold; line-height: 1.5;">Update:</span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>Further details suggest this is in fact a variation of the previous seen HTC Mozart Windows Phone 7 device and this will NOT be Android, carry on.</div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia,'Bitstream Charter',serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> Don’t confuse that with the Nexus Prime as many have been calling the next Google device, our source claims this will be the next HTC phone and it will NOT be the next Nexus by Google. For now we will focus on the HTC Ignite, it’s suggested to be packing a 1.5 Ghz dual-core Snapdragon CPU, a 4.3″ 720p HD display and most likely will be powered by Androids newest offering in Ice Cream Sandwich. These specs line right up with the HTC Vigor that was also leaked this morning.</div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia,'Bitstream Charter',serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> Now before you ask us or go to Google Translate for the words in yellow, Binnenkort Leverbaar mean COMING SOON in Dutch. The phone also has a very similar look to the HTC Sensation we reviewed here. Although I don’t see a front facing camera hole for the Ignite but they could have moved it.</div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia,'Bitstream Charter',serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> The details remain thin for the HTC Ignite but as soon as we hear more we will report on it. You can’t have it just yet, but we have the Sensation 4G to give away if that is any interest to you.</div> <div mce_style="text-align: center;" style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia,'Bitstream Charter',serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px; text-align: center;"> <img alt="" class="size-full wp-image-44306 aligncenter" height="197" mce_src="http://img717.imageshack.us/img717/9180/htcignite.png" src="http://img717.imageshack.us/img717/9180/htcignite.png" style="border-width: 0px; clear: both; color: #444444; display: block; font-family: Georgia,'Bitstream Charter',serif; line-height: 1.5; margin: 0px auto 12px; max-width: 640px;" title="HTC Ignite" width="102" /></div> </div> </span></div>

Samsung Galaxy 3D Coming Q4 2011?

I linked to the reviews of both in case you wanted to check those out. News is coming from Samsung’s own backyard and a Korean site is claiming they have a Galaxy 3D on the way.</div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia,'Bitstream Charter',serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> <span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia,'Bitstream Charter',serif; line-height: 1.5;"></span></div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia,'Bitstream Charter',serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> Sources suggest it will in fact run Android 2.3 Gingerbread but if it comes in Q4 hopefully we will see Ice Cream Sandwich instead. It should be sporting a 4.3″ glasses-free 3D display, dual 8MP cameras for the 3D power as well as a 1.2 Ghz or faster dual-core CPU. We sure hope they include a few LED flashes in there unlike the obviously real (smiles) photo shown above.</div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia,'Bitstream Charter',serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> The Samsung Galaxy 3D should be sporting either HDMI-out or a HD TV output so we can enjoy that 3D video captured with the device right on Samsung 3D ready HDTV’s across the globe. This is just news for now and we have nothing official to go on other than the Korean site and the awesome photo above.</div> <div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia,'Bitstream Charter',serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;"> Hopefully Samsung gets this device to market sooner than Q4 because by then HTC will most likely be working on its refresh to the EVO 3D and same probably applies to LG.</div> </div> </span></div>

ThinkPad Tablet shown off with keyboard-laden folio cover, could ship within a month

<div><img alt="" border="1" class="aligncenter" height="248" hspace="4" src="http://img835.imageshack.us/img835/60/thinkpadtablet2.jpg" style="margin-top: 4px; margin-bottom: 4px; border: 1px solid black;" vspace="4" width="279" /></div><br/>Well, lookie here! Seems that ThinkPad Tablet's getting more real by the hour. For what it's worth, Lenovo hasn't exactly done a laudatory job keeping its next major Honeycomb tablet under wraps, but flaunting it in public? Now that's just asking for it. According to <em>ZTOP</em>, the enterprise-centric Tablet will arrive within three to four weeks boasting Tegra 2 silicon, a 10.1-inch display (1280 x 800) and an optional folio / cover that might just steal the show. According to the report, it's a leather-wrapped case that contains a full-on keyboard and optical tracking sensor, presumably using a USB connector to make the magic happen. Think Clamcase, but tailored for Lenovo. There's no mention of a price on that one, but we're guessing it ain't gonna be tossed in gratis. Tap the source for one more look, and expect to hear more on the whole kit and kaboodle as July draws closer.
