US Cellular to launch Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1, Galaxy S Aviator LTE devices
While US Cellular may not be the biggest carrier around, they have recently taken the wraps off two LTE capable devices that will be arriving on their network – the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 and the Samsung Galaxy S Aviator, with the former expecting to see a launch in March, while the latter is expected to arrive in April. The Galaxy Tab 10.1 is a familiar device to many and it seems that its specs will not differ from the other versions that have been launched on other networks and around the world.
The Galaxy S Aviator on the other hand seems to sport some form of resemblance to Verizon’s Droid Charge. It will feature a 4.3” WVGA s-AMOLED Plus display, an 8MP rear-facing camera, a front-facing webcam and will run on Android 2.3.6 Gingerbread as its choice of operating system. US Cellular is expected to throw on the switch for their 4G LTE network next month, which would make the arrival and availability of both devices rather timely, although we’re guessing the Galaxy Tab 10.1 might be considered slightly outdated then. Either way US Cellular subscribers can look forward to two LTE capable devices for use with the carrier’s new LTE network.
So, there is a new Samsung smartphone that is about to be released – big surprise, that, and I say this with full a sarcasm. Still, those who want something that looks to hang out on the high end side of things in terms of design and form factor, and yet having a mid-range performer within, can always settle for the Samsung Galaxy A9.
The handset has already appeared on the FCC database, which means it has been approved, and listed as the Samsung Galaxy A9. With the green light given, it is but a matter of time before it hits the market. While very little detail has been released so far, it should not be too long now before an official announcement is made. All that one can do now is to sit tight and wait. [FCC Page]
If you would like to fancy your chances with an upcoming mid-range device that seems to hover more on the higher end scheme of things, then the Samsung Galaxy A9 would certainly fit you to a ‘t’, so to speak. After all, accessory manufacturer ITSKINS has shared more details concerning this device, with the Galaxy A9 touted to be a wee bit more compact as opposed to the Galaxy S7 Plus, never mind that both handsets will come with 6.0″ screens.
Measurements of the Galaxy A9 include 161.9mm x 81.3mm x 7.34mm, where it would be slightly taller than the Galaxy Note5, while sporting a metal and glass design, a fingerprint reader that should be able to handle mobile payments, a Full HD Super AMOLED display, and a Snapdragon 620 chipset, among others.
The Samsung Galaxy S7 will no doubt be a smartphone that many people would look forward to picking up when it is ready, taking into consideration how flagship devices are always in demand. Well, the Galaxy S7 has been said to target an early 2016 release, and some photos of the alleged device has already been snapped, although one should take into consideration that the original Weibo post is no longer there.
Of course, do take this particular leak with a pinch of salt, since it could be one of the numerous smartphones from various manufacturers that could roll out a similar looking handset. In the leaked photos, you can see a wrap-around metal border design, which seems to be the in thing at least for the next couple of years. All that we can do now is to sit tight and wait for the real deal to surface.
