I'm trying to recall but I think he was reffering to the model number 19250 wasn't the prime, that model is nonexistent, that the model number was i9250
I disagree, I think sprint will be a launch partner with the Third Nexus. I can't see them pushing the phone back til '12 for dual band lte/wimax.
Ohh I see what you mean.Miss understood/type my post. If Sprint were to hold off on the NexP then the only reason would be to introduce it with something that would be the first in the market with. The way they were first with 4G. I don't think they will wait till next year to release this beast, I hope not.. Sorry for the confusion.
On a side note regarding the screen. Is anyone else concerned about the pentile screen door effect? (think photon) I hope the prime doesnt have that, that would be a dealbreaker for me if it did.
is it really that bad?
its doesnt look to be that bad as a deal breaker like lets say a thunderbolt is with its horrible hardware issues?
Consider yourself fortunate. My phone until the release will be a Samsung Impression
I think that the higher ppi will mean you wont be able to notice the pentile screen, if it does use the Super AMOLED HD screen
As far as I know both the original Super Amoled and the display motorola uses on the photon are both pentile, correct me if I'm wrong. However the motorola screen has that screen door effect even though it has a higher ppi than the original Super Amoled display. (960x540 on a 4.3 inch screen and 800x480 on a 4" screen). I'm less concerned because it's Samsung, probably the best screen maker in the market right now but I'm still concerned.I think that the higher ppi will mean you wont be able to notice the pentile screen, if it does use the Super AMOLED HD screen
Link:http://www.bgr.com/2011/08/29/verizon-wireless-exclusively-launching-samsung-droid-prime-in-october/BGR has exclusively learned from a close source of ours that Verizon Wireless has passed on offering the Samsung GALAXY S II in favor of something even better. We reported last week that Verizon isn’t going to sell the GALAXY S II, and we have now been told why. Apparently, “Verizon doesn’t think the Samsung GALAXY S II will be competitive with the iPhone 5 when it launches.” Instead, not only is Verizon launching the Samsung DROID Prime, a device that is sure to be the new flagship Android phone ahead of the holidays, but the company will have the handset as an exclusive. The DROID Prime is expected to be the first smartphone to launch with Android 4.0 “Ice Cream Sandwich,” and we have been told the model number is SCH-i515. According to our source, the phone should launch sometime in October. Verizon Wireless did not immediately respond to a request for comment..
If BGR is right I just made a fool out of myself. Still hoping for a simultaneous launch fro the Prime.
If by simultaneous you mean other carrier launches (named something else besides Droid) I PRAY you're right. I'm going to AT&T and don't want another skinned device. If AT&T doesn't get a variant of this Prime device...I may have no choice but to look at the damn iPhone (something I will avoid unless I absolutely have to).
