Samsung decided to be a wet blanket at the iPhone 4S‘ launch in Sydney, Australia, employing the classic price cut strategy. Oh, and what a cut it was! We’re talking about Samsung advertising the Galaxy S2 just down the road form Sydney’s Apple Store (a rented place, no doubt about it), where the first ten people in line at the Samsung Music Hub awareness shop will be able to bring home the Galaxy S2 for a mere $2 (in local currency, of course).

This offer is good for a week only, so I am quite sure you will see campers for the entire week already taking their place, although this promotion might not be able to prevent the mass adoption of iPhone 4S devices in Australia considering how the pre-order phase of the “best iPhone yet” has broken the old record already. Which side of the divide are you on? I do wonder whether the 70 people or so who picked up the Galaxy S2 for $2 after this will still purchase an iPhone 4S – someone should do a follow-up to find out the results.

Nexus Prime name outed by Samsung?

Nexus Prime name outed by Samsung? Tyler Lee 10/11/2011 09:58 PDT

There has been plenty of rumors and leaks surrounding Google’s upcoming Samsung Nexus Prime device. From leaked photos to leak specifications, none of them actually tell you what the device will be called. Given that this will be the third device in Google’s series of Nexus phones, it’s safe to assume that the “Nexus” word will appear as part of device’s name.

Prior to this, the device has had several monikers, ranging from the Nexus Prime, the Galaxy Nexus and even the Droid Prime. However after receiving an award from T3 for having the phone of the year with their Samsung Galaxy S2, Andrew Glass, Samsung UK’s sales director apparently let slip the name of the upcoming device.

“You will have an announcement of the Nexus Prime very shortly and will be seeing it in shops sooner than you think.”

Interestingly this is the first time anyone has mentioned the name, at least no one that is directly involved with the phone, such as Google or Samsung. Could it really be called the Nexus Prime or was Andrew Glass simply using a name that he was sure everyone would be familiar with?

Verizon announces Samsung Stratosphere

Ah, the rather elusive Samsung Stratosphere. I guess we’re something like journalists for National Geographic in our efforts to hunt down the latest and greatest news, save for the fact that we’re dealing with the world of tech instead of animals and wildlife. Well, we’ve already seen the leaked specifications for the Samsung Stratosphere, not to mention having its manual sneak out as well, so what better way to commemorate the smartphone than to announce the Samsung Stratosphere officially from Verizon Wireless now?

Originally slated for a rollout in September 8 last month, I guess the adage “better late than never” holds true here. The Samsung Stratosphere is similar in style and specifications to the Epic 4G, although users will be able to enjoy the speeds that Verzon’s 4G LTE network offers. Just in case you’ve forgotten what the Samsung Stratosphere packs, it will feature a 4? Super AMOLED display at 480 × 800 resolution, a 5-megapixel rear camera with auto focus and flash, a 1.3-megapixel front-facing camera, a 1GHz processor and Android 2.3 Gingerbread as the operating system of choice.

The asking price? $149.99 with a new 2-year contract which frankly, ain’t too bad an offer at all.

Could this be the Samsung Galaxy S III?

With the Samsung Galaxy Nexus/Nexus Prime/Droid Prime not even out the door, let alone seeing an official announcement or acknowledge about the device, and with the Samsung Galaxy S2 arriving in the US not too long ago, there has already been talk about a Samsung Galaxy S III, and it looks like it’s already in the works if the leaked photo above is to be believed.

With the tremendous success Samsung has had with the Galaxy S2, it’s only natural that they would capitalize on that with a successor, the Galaxy S III (assuming that’s what it’s going to be called). Thanks to Phandroid’s tipster, and assuming that the details aren’t fabricated, we now know a little bit more about to expect from Samsung’s next flagship phone.

In what appears to be a hastily snagged photo of an internal slideshow presentation, there is mention of a Samsung Galaxy S III. There is an an accompanying photo but that could be a placeholder for all we know, but based on the specs listed, the alleged Samsung Galaxy S III will be shipped with an 1.8GHz dual-core processor using Samsung’s Exynos 4212 chipset, 2GB of RAM, a 12MP camera and will feature a 4.6” Super AMOLED Plus HD display.

What do you guys think? Is this just a really clever fake/photoshopped image or are we looking at a possible Samsung Galaxy S III’s specs? I guess for now we’ll just have to take this with a grain of salt and wait for more details to surface.

Samsung Galaxy WiFi 5.0 available in the UK

If Apple’s iPod touch doesn’t do it for you, how about getting your hands on an Android equivalent? You may remember Samsung’s Galaxy WiFi, which is basically Samsung’s answer to Apple’s iPod touch, and is essentially a media player that runs on Android. 

The good news is that if you were hoping to get your hands on the device, the 5” version of the device is available now in the UK, while it’s smaller 3.6” sibling is expected to make an appearance in November.

A quick recap for those who may have forgotten or may be unfamiliar with the device: The Samsung Galaxy WiFi comes in two versions – a 5” version and a 3.6” version. The 5” version will feature a 1GHz single-core TI OMAP processor with Samsung’s TouchWiz UI on top of Android’s Gingerbread 2.3.

While there was no mention of the official price in the press release, the 5” Samsung Galaxy WiFi is expected to retail for about 200 ($310). Unfortunately no word on its smaller 3.6” sibling, but we’re guessing that more details will emerge as its launch date approaches, which should be some time in November.

Samsung Galaxy Skin 2012 Launch Rumors

When we first covered the flexible Samsung Galaxy Skin back in June, it was presented as a pure design concept. Thanks to its flexible AMOLED display, the Galaxy Skin was thought about as a phone that can take on many shapes: clamshell, bracelet, elongated… Somehow, International Business Times (ibt) claims that this concept will turn into a real product which will launch in Q2 2012. As you can imagine, the rumor is going through the web like a wildfire.Although flexible AMOLED displays have been demonstrated, bendable or wearable devices  have yet to show up, even in the shape of reasonably working prototypes. Also, while the screen may be flexible, the rest of the phone like the battery, processor, memory, connector, wires etc… may not be – at least, until they get small enough to not mind about the bending nature of their host. At the very least, you should take those rumors with a good pinch of salt.

Nevertheless, it’s always fun to speculate about the near future, here’s what the Galaxy Skin specs are supposed to be:

4? 800×480 flexible AMOLED8 MP camera + VGA camera1.2Ghz processor, 1GB of RAM1500mAh battery

What do you think? Would you want a multi-shape phone to start with? What would you do with it?

Samsung Galaxy Note expected to launch in the UK late November? Tyler Lee 09/21/2011 09:51 PDT

The Samsung Galaxy Note seems to be the happy middle between a smartphone and a tablet, and while it does not appear that Samsung has plans to launch the device in the US market (hopefully that will change soon), Clove in the UK has apparently outed a release date for the device as far as the UK market is concerned.

If you’re living in the UK, it seems that Clove has “confirmed” that the device will be released some time late November. They have put an estimated price of £500 + VAT, which seems to be along the same lines of the pricing we mentioned last time.

Just a quick recap for those who forgot, the Samsung Galaxy Note is running on a 1.4GHz dual-core processor with a 5.3” HD Super AMOLED display with a resolution of 1280×800. It is expected to feature HSPA+ and LTE connectivity and will come with an S Pen interface and stylus, which is along the lines of HTC’s Scribe stylus, and will be running on Android’s Gingerbread 2.3. If you’re interested, Clove will let you pre-order the device now and won’t charge you, but instead will confirm with you once the device has actually been released and you can make your payment then.
