T-Mobile and Samsung Galaxy fans, you have a new device coming your way soon! With their latest press release we understand that we can expect the Samsung Galaxy S 4G to be in stores sometime this month. They say this will be the fastest smartphone, running on the largest 4G network. Would you agree?
Will this phone be T-Mobile’s number one selling device? We will see. With features like froyo and a front facing camera, I’m pretty sure it’s going to be the hot topic for their company when it comes out. Keep in mind, T-Mobile also says it’s “The first smartphone capable of delivering theoretical peak download speeds of up to 21 Mbps.” That’s fast isn’t it?
We do not know prices yet but we expect prices to be announced soon.
Take a look at the press release from T-Mobile below:
