01 Nov 11 Samsung Italy Confirmed Galaxy S II, Note and Dual-core Tablets Getting Android 4.0 Update

Apparently, we must drool about the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Nexus in our dreams, and even the razor thin construction of the Motorola DROID RAZR, since both of them are the poster child of Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. It comes as no surprise that there are a lot of people out there who are probably slamming their heads against the wall for picking up a top-notch Android smart phone right now.

Fortunately, there might be some good news headed their way. Samsung Italy has gone ahead and confirmed that their high end devices (those packing a dual-core processor) will all be getting bumped up to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. Namely, the list of products which will be getting Android 4.0 update that will be blessed with the latest version of Android includes: Samsung Galaxy S II , Samsung Galaxy Note , Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 , Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 , Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7 , as well as Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus. But no word on the exact release date/s of the ICS for the mentioned Samsung devices. And if you’re a United States Samsung Galaxy S II customers, you still need to wait (more months) because OS upgrades in United States are controlled by wireless carriers.

The Samsung Galaxy S II or S2 is currently running Android Gingerbread 2.3.3 (global) or 2.3.4 and 2.3.5 in United States. Meanwhile, it is powered by 1.2GHz dual-core Exynos processor (1.5GHz dual-core Snapdragon processor for T-Mobile USA), 1GB of RAM, Android Gingerbread 2.3 out of the box, 8-megapixel primary camera, 2-megapixel front-facing camera, and 4.3-inch Super AMOLED Plus with 480 x 800 resolution. While Samsung Galaxy Note, the new tab phone from Samsung Electronics, is pre-installed with Android Gingerbread 2.3.5. And it sports 5.3-inch Super AMOLED screen with 800 x 1280 resolution or 285 ppi (pixel density), 1.4GHz dual-core Exynos processor, 1GB of RAM, 8-megapixel primary camera with 1080p video support at 30fps, 2-megapixel front facing camera, and Android Gingerbread 2.3.5 pre-installed.

Now it is important to note that the Samsung Galaxy S2 Android 4.0 update will likely refer to the unlocked version however carrier specific models should also be getting it but at a slightly later date. Besides, we would hope to see phones with a fast single-core processor (1.4 GHz) on the list, which is like the Galaxy W or T-Mobile Exhibit II, but I maintain Samsung is still evaluating that option.

We promise to follow the ICS updates and let you know as soon as possible.

11 Sep 11 Samsung GT-I9250 (Nexus Prime) Cell Phone Specs

We are all curious about the news released by the corporations that provide us with the latest information about their products. What will be the next focal spot? There are already countless rumors about Apple iPhone 5, the new king in the kingdom of smart phones. For this moment, Apple iPhone 5 has already attracted too much attention from the manufactures as well as consumers worldwide. Its legal contest with another strength brand, Sumsung, will never be a fierce battle. However, Sumsung’s new arrival, Nexus Prime, which is superior in light of its hardware and software hasn’t attracted the attention it deserves.

With Nexus Prime’s user agent profile leaking incident, Sumsung took the makeshift to cope with the emergency by posting a blank support page for GT-I9250, the code name of Nexus Prime. Except for the FAQ and how to entry directions, there is nothing more to read about the GT-I9250. While it is unlikely that some Sumsung employee has gone mad as to post a fake page, we can merely take these as placeholders.

There is doubt that a hefty 4.65″ display will really show a 1,280 × 720 HD resolution in the Nexus Prime (which is also called the Galaxy Nexus). It is also boasted that the Galaxy Nexus has a curved display with the thickness of 8.8mm. A bold prediction can be made that it will appear on the market the same time as the iphone 5.
