Unnamed Samsung Android slider headed for AT&T

By Jonathan S. Geller on Jul 25, 2011 at 11:30 AM

If Samsung’s Android lineup is feeling a little sparse on AT&T, don’t worry… there’s about to be a new flagship in town. We have just exclusively received a photo of an unnamed Samsung device complete with sliding QWERTY keyboard that’s headed to AT&T in the coming months. While we don’t have much to go on, the device will sport the four-button Android layout as opposed to Samsung’s typical three-button layout at AT&T’s request, and the QWERTY keyboard even reflects that.

I’m not a massive fan of physical keyboards (but I realise that there are those that like/need them – choice ftw) but this looks like a decent little slider from the render.

are you a fan of capacitive buttons too? It’s almost designed to be stupid.

I think the D3 has the best looking slider keyboard by far.

You can suck my balls for two dollars per hour, 12 hours a day.

Take it or leave it.

Looks cool, if I were into sliders.

Looks nice. Much better looking than their other keyboard sporting devices. Still don’t really care for them though.

So if you have no more information on this device, what makes you think this will be “a new flagship in town”?

Don’t you know? Looks alone suffice for letting us know how good a phone will be. It’s revolutionary.

It clearly looks like a keyboard-enhanced Galaxy S2, and there’s a good chance the S2 will be a flagship phone for AT&T when it comes out…

RayG

“looks like”… “there’s a chance”… This is BGR, where they [I hope] try to be a little more factual before making a claim that may have people decide to wait for this “flagship” instead of getting that beautiful Inspire.
Raphael Tal

I hope you read this RAYG. that “beautiful Inspire” cant even last a full day of moderate use. If you use it heavily, it will last half a day. Now let me fill you in on the interesting part. after a year when the battery deteriorates, it wont last past 2pm. Its like buying a brand new lexus with a 5 gallon tank. This thing only has a 1230 mAh battery. . Iphone 4 has 1420 mah, moto atrix has 1930 mAh, samsung galaxy s2 1650.i dont care if the thing is made of solid gold , it it doesnt work for more then a few hours, i’m not interested
RayG

@Raphael Tal, I’m sorry I made you go out of your way to provide all of those stats, cause I actually meant the Infuse, not the Inspire. LOL

Neither the Inspire nor the Infuse have physical keyboards…
hahahaha

HAHAHAHA… that’s funny shit about the Infuse

Pretty cool looking phone.

The three button layout Samsung uses has never been brought to the US.

http://twitter.com/ajerman Andrew Jerman

Thankfully too. All Android devices have a standard 4 buttons at the bottom. The fact that Samsung has to change it to their own setup is annoying. Just stick with what everyone else uses. In fact, I wish they would standardize the order of the buttons too. It’s annoying using someone else’s Android phone and pressing the wrong buttons all the time because they are in a different order on every phone.

In fact 3 buttons is MUCH better:

– more space between buttons = less acidental presses;
– home button is physical = less home acidental presses (the most annoying acidental press)

In a slider, it’s a must, since your fingers will be much closer to touch anything by mistake when holding in landscape mode.

It actually has been named on “other” sites, BGR is just too busy with iNews.

I must apologize to BGR they are doing a job. It is my anger towards my ass raping father that causes me to lash out. BTW I have a miniscule penis.

I highly doubt AT&T had any power to get a 4 row keyboard, if they did, they did it wrong, and should have asked for a 5 row keyboard, which actually is the most popular keyboard among customers and makes them happier. Nice try though.

BLACK RECTANGLE COPYRIGHTED BY APPLE. ALL PHONES LOOK LIKE IPHONES. bunch of idiots in here. ugh.

Look closer, this has a slider, thus when open, it becomes a square, and is no longer rectangle…something Apple DID NOT copyright on their phones were square designs HA!

I like the idea of an actual physical keyboard. I just like the way it “feels”. Call me old-fashioned I suppose.

You like the way I feel?

Great Keyboard layout. Just hoping actual keypad touch is good

This looks gorgeous!!! For this awesomeness I would even consider switching to AT&T.

How can this be a flagship phone with only a 4 row keyboard. Both the Droid 3 and Epic are 4″ sliders and have 5 row keyboards. So either this phone has a screen smaller than 4″ or it has the biggest keys ever, which wouldn’t be so bad-just not sure its worth the trade off of dedicated number keys.

In any event, if this is an LTE slider version of the GS2 then I’m all in. I’m just a bit skeptical.

looks really nice

If it a QWERTY version of the Galaxy II (possible) then yes it will be a high end device.

It’s looking that way, sure hope it is. Glad AT&T is getting from under Apples tit and started bringing the beef again.

Looks like something Daddy might like!

Every new Android device is more exciting than the one that came out the day before. Holy shit is Android crappy. How many devices do they need? Just make one that can hold a battery charge for more than a few hours.

Kinda like the idea of having a keyboard again…I like the look forward this phone.

I am also surprised that no one found a way to mention Apple in this post. Of the 8 posts so far today 5 have been about Apple. Come on guys. Let’s shoot for at least 80% here!
