The Samsung Hercules was first spotted last week at the Samsung Mobile concert in Toronto, and now the folks over at TmoNews have managed to get their hands on even more photographs of the device. And besides a clearer look at the phone, some new information was discovered as well. The Hercules is going to be T-Mobile’s variant of the Samsung Galaxy S 2.</div>

T-Mobile Samsung Dart Hands-on and Physical Comparison to Exhibit 4G and Gravity Smart

<p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="" class="aligncenter" height="205" src="http://img715.imageshack.us/img715/4791/screenshot20110630at507.png" title="Screen shot 2011-06-30 at 5.07.20 PM" width="324" />What we’ve got here is the third of three mid-range Samsung Android smartphones that’ve been revealed over the past couple of weeks, this one the smallest of the three and certainly the one with the least special features. We’ve had a hands-on look at the Samsung Gravity Smart and a hands-on look at the Samsung Exhibit 4G, both of which you’ll find are a bump up from the Dart. Which one will be the true victor, you may be wondering? Here’s a hint: it’s not blue!</p><br/>The Samsung Dart is a 4.09 x 2.40 x 0.51 (104 x 61 x 13 mm) handset that weighs in at 3.80 oz, aka 108 grams. It’s the tiniest little think you’ve ever seen in your life and a clear opponent of LG’s line of Optimus devices such as the LG Optimus V and the LG Optimus U. But how does it add up?

I think the DS – if you look at the 3DS, certainly versus people’s expectation’s it’s not been as successful as people would have thought. So that’s a very crowded market and a very, very red ocean right now with a lot of change happening. So I’m not sure it’s [a good idea]," he said.<br/><br/>Microsoft has said repeatedly that Windows Phone 7 was their portable gaming device, and there are increasing evidence of ever deeper integration and capabilities including multiplayer gaming and in-game voice chat in Windows Phone 7 Mango.<br/><br/>"You only have a certain number of bets you can make as a company and you have to decide what you want to put your wood behind and I’m just not sure that that’s a place (<em>a dedicated handheld console</em>) that I would put mine."<br/><br/>Via <a href="http://attackofthefanboy.com/news/xbox-exec-doubtful-of-playstation-vita-success/" target="_blank">Attackofthefanboy</a>
