Samsung Epic 4G Official for Sprint

, Jun 27th 2010 Discuss [2]

One might imagine that this had come out of left field, but if you'll recall, we've actually seen this phone before. It broke cover thanks to a tipster, and while we had originally put the moniker Galaxy S Pro on it, obviously Sprint and Samsung had a different agenda. Courtesy of Sprint, we've got official word that the Samsung Epic 4G (have to love the new trend, right?) is indeed coming "soon," and it's packing quite a mean punch. Read The Full Story

AT&T getting Galaxy S with Samsung Captivate

, Jun 17th 2010 Discuss [0]

Samsung's Galaxy S may have just dropped in on us earlier on today, but in a few months time it'll be making quite a splash on AT&T's network in the US.  The carrier has announced that it will be selling a rebadged, slightly redesigned version of the Galaxy S, the AT&T Samsung Captivate, "in the coming months"; still present are the Galaxy S' 4-inch Super AMOLED capacitive touchscreen, 1GHz Hummingbird processor, 16GB of internal storage and Android 2.1 OS. There's also WiFi b/g/n, Bluetooth 3.0 and HSPA for up to 7.2Mbps downloads, AT&T's network depending.  Samsung will preload their Social Hub, which pulls in Twitter, Facebook and MySpace messages, while AT&T will slap on their Navigator app and AT&T Family Map.  There'll also be the regular Google Android apps, including access to the Android Market, a multitouch-compatible browser and DLNA media streaming support.

Samsung Galaxy S gets video unboxing

, Jun 17th 2010 Discuss [11]

Back when we reviewed the Samsung Wave, while we loved its Super AMOLED display and swift 1GHz Hummingbird processor, we also felt the Samsung Galaxy S with Android 2.1 would be a better bet for most consumers than the new bada OS.  Happily that’s something we can test out now, since there’s a Samsung Galaxy S fresh to the test bench at Android Community today.

Samsung defend Super AMOLED over Steve Jobs iPhone 4 display snub

, Jun 10th 2010 Discuss [3]

After Steve Jobs described his iPhone 4's new LCD-based Retina Display as being better than AMOLED panels during the WWDC 2010 keynote this past Monday, it was pretty clear that Samsung wouldn't let the snub slide.  While a Samsung spokesperson did concede that Apple's 960 x 640 display was higher resolution than their own Super AMOLED panel (as used in the Samsung Wave and Galaxy S), he also insisted that "structurally, IPS LCD technology cannot catch up with AMOLED display technology" in other ways key to image quality.

Does it feel like this week is going by pretty slow to you, too? We could've sworn this was a Wednesday, but thankfully we've got a daily tally, so we figured out the error of our ways pretty quickly. So, welcome to the Tuesday edition of the Daily Slash. Tonight, in the Best of R3 Media, we've got an unknown HTC Android device, Facebook changing up video formats, and a lesser version of the Samsung Galaxy S. And then in the Dredge 'Net, it seems that LTE will have more sustainability than WiMAX, a new PlayStation 3 firmware update to add a nice feature, and then finally the Zune HD gets some new games added to the library, along with a new app. Read The Full Story
