4.5 inch screen on the US version?

[Pierpoint]

Now if only VZW had a 800mhz network that we could use that on...:-X

Verizons is the Celox.

Celox has a larger display and better technical specifications than Galaxy S. The device sports a 4.5-inch display with 800x480 screen resolution and 800MHz LTE support.

The device will run on a 1.5GHz dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon APQ8060 chipset. 1750 Li-ion battery of Celox is also another key feature.

NICE!!!

Just curious on how you know. From what I've read, its LTE/hspa not cdma or evdo. Not that I hope its not, but that phone is different from what Verizon will run.

Not really since the celox doesn't have cdma and uses a different frequency for the lte.

Uh, no. The APQ processing family isn't for use in phones. You will never see a phone that uses it, because it doesn't have integrated baseband chips. There's a reason why companies like qualcomm package their SoCs with baseband chips in them; they're not about to change that, and samsung isn't either.

Tons of speculation and reports today.

If it's released as 4g LTE - which phone will be better the Samsung or Bionic?

That's subjective....

I have no use for BloatTop, blur, pentile LCD and a locked bootloader so for me the GSII is a better device.

Its nothing more than speculation. You need look no further than Qualcomm's own product page for the APQ for proof that it will not be used in a phone. Essentially, the APQ processing family is a fully-fledged Snapdragon with the connectivity options stripped out. It also lacks many of the power-management features necessary for smaller form factors like phones. Or to put it another way; its a Snapdragon that was designed specifically for tablets, not phones.

It would make zero sense for Samsung to choose an APQ over an 8660, because the APQ does not have integrated basebands. Adding their own would be costly and inefficient, which is exactly the opposite of what they would need for a power-hungry LTE device.

Well since google acquired moto that could mean blur free and unlocked bootloaders.

Regardless of what the acquisition means for the possible development of future motorola phones Bionic is too far along in it's cycle to have any effect from this.

Well yeah but it could have more of an impact of the bootloaders getting the sbf to be unlocked. I was more saying for future moto phones. If you want to wait I would wait and see what the vigor and revolution 2 turn out to be they are looking like nice phones and what is waiting 1 more month and possibly even less than that with the rate at samsung is going.

See image here: Samsung Galaxy S II gets an LTE version codenamed Celox, spotted in Korea

It specifies the APQ8060 which is, indeed a dual core Scorpion with no baseband.

However, the baseband is noted as the MDM9200 which is just the single mode GSM/HSPA/LTE modem.

There is currently no Snapdragon SoC with LTE integrated, so this is actually probably the most efficient way to go.

The alternatives being:
* Use a SoC with an included baseband (see: Thunderbolt, Charge, et al).. even less efficient than using AP + BB
* Wait for SoC with included LTE baseband (this won't happen until Krait).. probably not this year

Just some thoughts..

Maybe this will be the version the us carriers will get since they removed the home button?

Why can't they just leave the home buttons? I'm all disoriented my t-bolt has menu and home backwards, my Gf has a vibrant and my friends galaxy s is perfect...

Nobody knows but its certainly not far fetched. I personally think it will be. But that's just me.

Well the 4.5 inch super sexy-moled screen will be welcome and hope the snapdragon is a beast that doesn't drain battery like the thunderbolt proc.

Snapdragon is whats in the tbolt. Snapdragon is a battery hog look at the Dual core version in evo 3d and sensation. Not much better battery life with those.

I still believe, based on rumored hardware, that its one of the new ATT lte devices
