The Samsung Galaxy S 4 is in the news today with new announcements, pricing and presale dates. There's a new feature on the Sprint model. We also learned what kind of music workers in Korea listen to while making Samsung Galaxy devices.
It looks like the Galaxy S 4 is officially a phablet with premium phablet pricing at AT&T where it will sell for $249.99 with a contract. AT&T announced via its blog that:
While all the 'other guys" at CES were trying to get attention being the most powerful, largest and thinnest, Apple ...
The shortage of Samsung Galaxy S III smartphones to carriers is already beginning. Canada had to delay the launch, Sprint ended preorders and now there may be shortage for T-Mobile.
T-Mobile offers no preorders and will not release the phone to certain markets until June 27. T-Mobile is not subsidizing it as much as other carriers either (see all carrier release dates with prices).
The T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S III webpage states that it will be available on June 21, 2012. The major feature T-Mobile is highlighting is the ability to send content to Wi-Fi SmartTVs to share in more ways with more people.
The Droid Incredible 4G LTE was announced in May. Many are wondering what happened to the stepbrother to the HTC ONE X/S?
A leaked screenshot from Verizon Wireless' MAP systems showed a May 31 release date and price of $149.99. Some conjecturatti are speculating that like the HTC One X and HTC One S the Droid Incredible 4G LTE could have been stuck in customs due to being checked due to the ITC exclusion order.
After many mishaps with release dates that were pushed back, Verizon Wireless stopped announcing the exact release date of premier smartphones until a few days before the actual release, with an announcement usually on a Tuesday for a Thursday launch.
While those with GSM networks in other parts of the world are enjoying their Samsung Galaxy Nexus superphones, Americans await its arrival with bated breath (and some heavy breathing). First-look reviews have been fantastic and whenever something is delayed it fuels desires even greater. Many sources can't figure what the price from Verizon Wireless for the Nexus will be while those who sell unlocked models are raking in big bucks.
Once again Best Buy showed a little too much, too soon, in the Circular section there is the Verizon Samsung Nexus Prime 4G LTE for $299.99 from November 27- December 31. Of course, today is November 27 and that sale date did not come today. The name of the phone has been changed to Samsung Galaxy Nexus, therefore we can assume that the description was from an earlier date and auto-scheduled to run today. Everyone now is sure that yes the Samsung Galaxy Nexus has been delayed.
