Picture of Samsung Galaxy2 leaked
Jan 29th
Mobile World Congress is just around the corner and we will be expecting lots of new phones to be announced.
Samsung will definitely be one of the companies that will announce new phones and the rumoured Galaxy2 could be one of them. According to the leak, the phone may have the following:
- 1 GHz Snapdragon (this is questionable as Samsung has its own chip)
- 3.7 inch AMOLED touchscreen
- 5 MP camera
- 32 GB internal memory (Wow, that looks good)
- Android 2.1
- 3.5 mm jack
The phone, according to the leak, should be launching at 2Q of 2010. If the information is true, it could be a good competitor to the high end Android phones already in the market.
