Guess I'll be sticking with my SGS2 for a little longer then.
What's with the crap resolution on a huge screen, that better not be true.
Such fail otherwise.

Yeah, will probably pick up the nexus S before that.

Today is a busy day for Nexus Prime - it's been all over the news more than twice. Just hours earlier, we told you about a 'trusted source' who told BGR the phone's key specifications. Well, they may turn out to be completely and utterly wrong.

We were contacted by a tipster from inside Google, who claims to be familiar with the next Nexus phone and he basically put the previously speculated specs to sleep. As usual, tips like these are to be taken with a pinch of salt, but for now we're buying what this guy's selling. What you are about to read is quite dazzling.

According to our source, the device codenamed Nexus Prime is going to ship with Samsung's own chipset, probably the Exynos, with a blazingly fast dual-core processor clocked at 1.5GHz. But wait, there's more.

On that chipset will also reside a powerful dual-core GPU from Imagination. We suspect it's going to be the PowerVR SGX543MP2, or in other words, the same GPU found in the iPad 2 (and quite probably on the iPhone 4S as well).

On the back, instead of the 5-megapixel snapper, our source claims, there's an 8-megapixel, full 1080p HD video-shooting camera with some sort of an improved sensor. As for the battery, expect a 2050mAh one (do we hear a whoa?), which should be good for a couple of days use without charging.

The Nexus Prime will also be LTE-enabled, but the most interesting part is that it would probably boast a dual-mode GSM/CDMA radio, just like the Apple iPhone 4S.

All those specifications sound almost too nice to be true, but keeping in mind the advertisement for the Nexus Prime, prompting us that "something BIG is coming", we won't be surprised if all of these purported specs turn out to be real.

What we do know for sure is that the head-turning 4.65-inch, 1280x720 pixels screen is definitely a go. Whatever the truth might be, we'll definitely find out on October 11, which is just a few days from now.

Which specifications list sound more plausible to you?



apparently new specs from gsmarena

collective sigh of relief heard around the world

Edit: HTC Sensation XL, "oh yeah, how about a 4.7 inch screen" lol http://www.bgr.com/2011/10/06/htc-se...udio-included/

i think gsmarena's article is more credible...

i doubt they'll market something BIG as smaller battery, less MP in a cam, and slower (non in-house) processor than the newer S II phones.

We keep seeing that it will be verizon exclusive at launch a couple times..that may very well happen.

Hi guys, thanks for reading our article this morning. Got a follow up for ya too...

GSII was released back in late april in korea

not ready or S2 just too new in the states? or was it a ploy to draw attention (if the new iphone was deemed a threat theyd announce something new but not yet ready)

Could be all of the above

also some are saying they postponed it for the passing of Steve jobs and his funeral

I'm happy.. Means I don't have to think about replacing my SGS2 as soon. LOL

I'd only upgrade if its gonna be a HUGE upgrade

Samsung and Google postpone Ice Cream Sandwich and Galaxy Nexus -- Engadget

Damn....

Classy move, doing it out of respect for Steve Jobs

:okay:

probably not a huge upgrade vs the SGS2
more so just a bump in processing power.

I love my nexusS, but i might be moving on to iOS5 for a day or two...

*then it goes back to hongkong*....PROFIT

LOL. Isn't it more profit unopened? :)
