Samsung announcing new hardware November 8

General

Got a thing for Samsung and Android? Samsung has just sent out a media blast announcing that they will be unveiling “a new Android device.” The invitation not-so-cryptically has TouchWiz icons and a stock-ticker image… our guess would be we’re going to see the Continuum Galaxy S handset with the second, AMOLED, “ticker” display. Any other conspiracy theories?

    Damn it! I am still holding out for the next Bada device.

  • Teco221

    Yeah. Where is Bada? Tied of all these Android talks and nothing Is that impressive. I would rather either get iOS or WP7 devices.

    Who gives a damn about the Continuum? GIVE US FROYO, SAMSUNG.

    So a year later, how many devices are faster than my Moto Droid running 2.2+ @800 MHz?

    • James

      My Tmobile G2 is faster

    • bob

      my overcolcked evo, 2.2 @ 1.2 ghz

  • Nokia N900

    I’m waiting on the 1st Nokia phone running Meego OS to officially launch.

      ………….and waiting………..and waiting………but while you are waiting you can watch as more executives leave and as more employees are laid off. Business 101, if you have to lower your ASP’s, you will sooner or later have to cut staff.

      Seriously, get something else while you’re waiting. Sticking out of loyalty is a burning and sinking ship.

      Wasting years of time that could’ve better been spent building a foundation somewhere else, or at least spreading your eggs and building experience.

    How about update all the phone to 2.2 first??

    • Arno

      And what about all the guys like me on X10 ? :-D

  • superchunk

    Hmm. With Samsung’s horrible delays of releasing updates to their current devices, I’d have to pass unless it came with 2.3 pre-installed.

  • GN

    I had a nightmare last night….got the OS6 update for my 9700…still feeling a little shaken

  • StrykerGT

    I hope the GPS work on this model…

  • sean76

    WTF…Release 2.2 for the current Galaxy devices before bringing new Devices to the market…so typical of Samsung.

    • GN

      I agree…funny thing is…mom decided on the Droid X, over the droid 2 last week…godddam thing is still running 2.1…I really cant believe it…awesome phone, but why the hold hold up for a .1 update?? they pull this shit with certain phones…pisses people off, that went and paid the money for a good high end phone w/contract. They keep saying they going to release the friggin thing…gimme a break already…3.0 is right around the corner..makes no nense..

      • Topher86

        Why are we so impatient? Enjoy what you have before wanting the next best thing, even though there isn’t a big difference between 2.1 and 2.2…besides Flash

      • sean76

        Its not just Flash, the OS has tweaks and is just Faster overall.

      • Topher86

        not enough for it to be a huge step from 2.1, at least I haven’t seen enough of a jump from all the comparisons

      • Capt.Obvious

        There are a lot of apps in the App Market which require 2.2, such is Google Search. This App requires 2.2, allows for voice search and voice text plus more. Chrome to phone also requires 2.2, latest you tube app, 2.2! Oh and this other very popular app, it’s the latest version maybe you’ve heard of it, Gmail app? Needs 2.2. And yes flash would be nice.

      • Carmen

        Uhhh. This is a Samsung post, but whatever. Also, 2.2 has been out for the Droid X for a while now. Download it for her. It’s under settings>about>update. Or something like that.

  • Topher86

    I’m guessing it’s going to be the Continuum as well, but it would be pretty boss if they pulled a RIM and completely surprised us w/ something unexpected. I mean, that would be a better reason for having a huge press release, right?

  • offdayJB

    if it is the Continuum, it will probably have a 2 hour battery life, which is a no buy for me.

  • Dave

    LOL….The same day that WP7 launches in North America…of which they have one….they make a big deal about a new Android phone. Hmmm…….

    It would be great if it was the Samsung Beam i8520 / Samsung Galaxy Beam. That pico packing phone has dropped off the face of the internet until it’s recent mention as it and all it’s pico powers were put to use to help entertain the Chilean Miner who were trapped for several months. This is one of the few devices that I was actually looking forward to and it’s general release did not come, so I hope this is it!!!!
