Android 1.5 on this phone. But that will change in Q2-2010. Samsung will release thier first major update to Android 2.1. For those who dont know what the Samsung Galaxy I5700 is, its a mid-level phone with great specs. But it is not for sale in the United States and we doubt it will. How ever here, in The Netherlands, I did see the Spica and it looks like a great phone.

As we may believe Androphones, Samsung is going to announce the Galaxy 2 smartphone in Februari. If we may believe them it will be a very slick phone which looks very nice. The potential specs are:

1 GHz SnapDragon
3.7-inch AMOLED touchscreen
5MP camera (back)
32 GB of internal memory
Android 2.1
3.5 mm jack (for headset use)

We do think that something is not right in the potential specs, the CPU. Samsung normally use their own chips for their phones like in the Samsung Galaxy Spice. But we hope to get more information when it maybe will be announced at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.

As you might know, Apple, announced thier first tablet the iPad. But what about MSI? They created a tablet, Tegra, which runs on Android and has a 10inch touchscreen. But it is not yet announced by MSI and we dont know the real name but we know it will run on the NVIDIA Tegra CPU. And will have all netbook functionalities unlikely like the iPad.]]> rick@androidfeatures.com (Rick Bonkestoter) frontpage Fri, 29 Jan 2010 17:30:51 +0000
