Correct me if I'm wrong, but this looks like GSII and a bunch just got uploaded on FCC today - FCC ID: A3LSPHD710

I googled and found that SPH-D710 was released in 2004 or 2005, but this definitely doesn't look like the old slide phone.

I'm not so much keen on radio band and what not, so please don't get pissed if I'm wrong............

BTW, the test report says WiMax and pre-production.

That camera bezel and speaker hole placement looks exactly like the one in THIS LEAKED PIC

That's what I thought. Also attaching dimension.

Do you have a link on the FCC site? I usually check PhoneScoop for FCC approvals but they don't show any Samsung phones clearing today.

applicant name: Samsung

and play with the dates.

Nice find. Looks like the Within for sure.

[skwon09]

Nice find. Looks like the Within for sure.

Only caveat is that I'm actually a Verizon user... Hopefully we get one approved soon as well.

[JayWill]

EDIT - yup looks like you nailed it.

Good stuff!

[boondoc]

looks like i'm not the only one that's been obsessively checking the FCC. at least i'm not alone.

You might be seeing the SGH-D710 in your search results, which I think is an older device. I found a reference to the SPH-D710 which talks about a mysterious SPH-D710 topping some Nenamark benchmark. This might be the prototype for Sprint's SGS2.

Good find. There's a lot missing from your typical FCC clearance documents, but something is definitely going on here. This stuff posted up on the FCC site today.

the lot missing part is because things like pictures of the device and so forth are usually kept confidential for 6 months from the filing date.

Now that we know the model number I did a search and found this interesting ...



Of note:

1. The current top of the list is the Samsung SPH-D710. Obviously it is a Galaxy SII type phone but why this numbering is a mystery. So while it has the Galaxy SII guts its not exactly a Galaxy SII. Added to the mystery is the phone is testing with Android 2.3.4, which means it debuts with this version at least or some higher version. It also gives you an idea the kickup the Galaxy SII gets when it goes to 2.3.4.

Looks like a tester ran the NenaMark benchmark on it a few times heh. Also, I think this crushes any rumors that the US SGS2 variants would come with a Tegra 2. Well for Sprint's version anyways.

this is fantastic news! thanks for taking the time to share all your findings.

[taylormah]

Engadget posted it too via . Hurrraaayyyyyyy!!!!! Finally wait seems to be getting over!!

[cacherpaderp]

Ew. Tegra 2. I will be pretty displeased if it doesn't have the sexy Exynos.

In that article it says that the phoneposted is biggier than the GSII thats out now. I was hoping Sprint would get a tab/phone.AS cool and great as that would be i was the Exnyos Chipset. Hopefully it will have or I maybe waiting a while for my next phone.

[dkotoric]

Maybe it has a 4.5 screen

[dkotoric]

Can we see from this fcc if it has a keyboard

[oversteer325]

No 800MHz esmr band.

[rawvega]

No 800MHz esmr band.

Actually it does have 800MHz ESMR:

[oversteer325]

Actually it does have 800MHz ESMR:

You are right. I initially looked at this page () and only saw the two CDMA bands. Good find!

[graffix31]

i really cant wait for this phone!

[freddyc]

So we're getting the Hercules but it's going to be marketed as a GS2 variant?

[cacherpaderp]

The Hercules is a GS2 variant.

[freddyc]

The Hercules is a GS2 variant.

Cool!

Now .... WHEN?!?!?!?!?!

How odd that the CDMA 800 band isn't listed in the main report but instead has its own report. Also, it's not actually labeled CDMA 800 but by channel number. I assume that has to do with the way iDEN devices operate in that frequency range? And no, I'm not suggesting the Within is a Nextel phone.

Anyway, good news regardless. This phone is shaping up to be a very nice device. Now we just have to see how awful TouchWiz will be on it (not a fan of that iPhone wanna-be skin).

[jfenton]

LP or one of the other launchers should do away with TW issues if you don't like it?

I took my EVO3D back and I am living on a BB Tour until this comes out...can't happen fast enough!
