Carrier news - VZ LTE?

[Centro85#AC]

I'm sure there probably isn't yet, but is there any info about a verizon launch with LTE? My Droid 2 is painfully slow, and I'm ready for an upgrade Bionic only has 512 ram.. It's not enough for my D2 so that's out I guess. This galaxy 2 looks awesome if it hits vz with lte!

All the original Galaxy S's hit VZW i'm sure this one will too, and im sure it will have LTE, but that's just a guess.

I thought that verizon got the fascinate?

 

[grayfox99]

The fascinate is part of the original galaxy s line up of phones.

 

[heraldo]

Okay that's what I thought. Does that mean that they'll be making a second version of the fascinate?

 

[thebizz]

they could but i would rather have them make this a droid branded phone and leave bing off of it

I'm hoping that Verizon announces this phone, hopefully with LTE, soon. I'm looking to switch to Verizon from Sprint, but want to wait for this phone.

I concur

512mb DDR2 ram is better than the Non ddr2 512 on your droid2.

Bing contract ended jsyk. Tbolt doesn't have Bing but it isn't a Droid phone.

I think it will be. There was a blog post awhile back that had a screenshot of the Verizon system list, and the "Droid Thunderbolt" was listed.

Verizon is getting the chunky single core i510 (Stealth) first. So it will pprobably be a at least until fall when the "Fascinate 2" comes out. Maybe September 9 to make it one year from the Fascinate release.

I agree with this regardless of the leaked Verizon roadmap.

So, any more updates on this? Or should we just go ahead and buy a Charge if we want S-AMOLED+ with LTE?

Yes.

Didn't the Commando just launch with Bing integration yesterday? Would have been a great phone for my son, but so hard to bring myself to purchase an Android with Bing on it.

In addition, I was looking to the Bionic, but would definitely consider this phone. Currently have the OG Droid, and was a little upset that nothing is launching on Verizon with stock Android.

I hear a lot of frustration from Sammy owners about updates. Any reason to think that they will be better with this phone?

 

[ragnarokx]

They've been great about updates recently. The international Galaxy S1 already had a Gingerbread release, and I'm running a Gingerbread leak. They seemed to have really stepped up their game.

@ragnarokx thanks for the info. Anyone have a decent idea when this will be out on Verizon?

Have been itching to upgrade for the last few months, but I convinced myself to wait for dual core, and to see if anything interesting was announced at Google I/O.

For sure, remember, the Samsung Epic got WiMax 4g, so fore sure the majority of these Galaxy S2 devices will get 4g models on each carrier, unless T-Mobile just decides to do what they did with the Vibrant and wait 6 months to make it 4g. These devices will be 10x better with 4g, and even then they are already amazing as hell.
