Would you upgrade your ET4G to this phone? SHV-E120L

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE my Epic Touch 4G and would definitely buy Samsung again. I have to say I would consider upgrading to his phone if Sprint got it (a CDMA version) within the next year -

http://www.engadget.com/2011/09/21/samsung-shv-e120l-comes-out-of-the-development-dark-is-the-xtin/
dual-core 1.5GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, 4.7-inch 1280 x 720 HD display, 2 megapixel front-facing / 8 megapixel rear camera, 1GB RAM, 16GB of onboard storage, WiFi, Bluetooth and NFC.
Yes, there is always something better coming and this is the only phone I would think about.

It looks like a good phone and the specs suggest the phone should be pretty awesome, but I don't see myself going away from the ET4G any time soon. The development is just starting and who knows what could be made out of this phone. It's good enough as is to compete with any phone so who knows what kind of performance we could see with stable roms/kernels/tweaks etc. The 4.52 inch screen is just the perfect size imo. Anything bigger might as well be considered a tablet.

I don't really need to go much bigger than 4.5 - but 4.7 would still be just fine for me. The 1280 x 720 resolution would be sweet though. The processor on the ET4G is GREAT so going to 1.5 isn't a big deal for me. I don't really care about the NFC that phone will have so for me it really comes down to the higher res and I think the 4.7" screen will actually be the perfect size for me. That would be about as big as I could go and still do 1 handed typing.

I don't even think the proc is even a upgrade. Maybe even a downgrade.
My next phone will have to come with jellybean on the OS. Otherwise I will have nice hardware running on aged software. With Samsung don't expect anything more than what is in the box.

I'm hearing rumors the ET4G won't support EVDO rev B. If this new phone supports it, for me that would easily justify my next upgrade.

I won't be jumping to that with that CPU in there. It will be slower than the ET4G for sure.

Im perfectly fine with the ET4G for a good while.

right. adding GHz wont help an inferior GPU.
Mail-400 is a beast. There is an article explaining why the Tmobile version, even though clocked at 1.5GHz, wont be better than the exynos. Im sure it will still be a good phone, but ill take exynos over snapdragon ANY day.
if sprint did get it, the only reason id consider it would be because of the enhanced resolution as long as it was a super amoled+ or better, other than that this is my dream device

on top of that, a9 architecture is much better than a8. snapdragon cores are heavily modified a8's, but still wont beat an a9

I will say coming from the EVO 3D to the Epic Touch 4G I didn't really notice a speed difference. I don't play video games on my phone so maybe that is important for some people. I think sense can probably have an impact on perceived speed/smoothness.
I will say if the ET4G doesn't support EVDO rev. B, the network speed would be far, far more important to me.

"GALAXY S II HD LTESamsung Electronics declared the launch of the Mobile HD era by unveiling the world's first LTE smartphone with the HD Super AMOLED GALAXY S II HD LTE.With HD (1280X720) resolution, the HD Super AMOLED is the first AMOLED display to feature 316 pixels per inch (ppi), higher than the standard 300ppi, resulting in substantial improvements in screen sharpness and readability.A wide variety of high-resolution content services that are provided via the LTE communication network, such as high-resolution video telephony, real-time VOD services, and network games, can be enjoyed more vividly thanks to the HD SuperAMOLED.The GALAXY S II HD LTE will serve as an 'HD theater in hand' by offering an optimal environment for watching films, including the large 4.65-inch screen, screen ratio of 16:9, 110％ natural color reproduction, and 180-degree viewing angle that ensures a clear image from far left or right.The phone supports multiple modes including LTE, HSPA＋ (for SKT and KT) and Rev.A (for LGU＋), and WCDMA/GSM (roaming), enabling a domestic user to seamlessly access the fastest high speed wireless Internet.Substantial improvements were made to the design as well. The narrow bezel technology was employed for the front to make the frame of the 4.65-inch AMOLED display as thin as possible. Emphasis was thus placed on a slim, refined design. The slim feature (9.5mm) ensures a more comfortable grip.Other cutting-edge smartphone functions are provided, including a large battery capacity of 1850mAh, NFC (Near Field Communication), flash support, 8 megapixel camera, WiFi a/b/g/n support, and Bluetooth 3.0＋HS.※ The LTE speed specified above is based on theoretical value (LTE bandwidth of 10MHz each). The actual speed may differ according to the LTE bandwidth, communications standard, and usage environment. Areas where LTE services are provided may differ among operators."

Yeah I don't like 16:9 either, I prefer a much wider screen.

This is running a "1.5ghz dual core." I'm thinking this is a Qualcomm chipset, and Adreno220 with 720p doesn't sound all that great.

I am pretty happy with my GS2 so I think I can hold out for a little bit and still feel like I have a great device even when these next phones come out. Now if I still had an EVO 3D I am not so sure I would feel the same way.
A 4.5" Super Amoled Plus screen will keep me happy for a little while. Not to mention this flys!

This is basically going to be T-Mobiles inferior phone with an upgraded display and NFC. We'll be able to out process them.

This is what the U.S. carriers should have released. Waiting 5 months after the original launch of the Galaxy SII, there were rumors of the U.S. getting a "+" version with spec bumps, well that never happened. This is a slap in the face to the U.S. carriers in my opinion, I mean ATT and T-Mobile have not even released their Galaxy SII's yet, and now there is a better/upgraded version. Not cool

Not coming to the US, unless you are importing it and if you can, it would be extremely expensive

These new phones use the Qualcomm 1.5GHz S3 Snapdragon processors. They are not the Exynos processor! Also, it has been said that the Prime will use Ti's OMAP processor.

Yeah, even if this this is coming to the US....it's going to be like 6 months...same thing happened with our GS2.

They are both ARM processors, these names refer to the integrated "SoC" (System On a Chip).
"Hummingbird", "OMAPx", "Snapdragon", "TegraX", "Exynos", these are all platform names that (roughly) describe the system that is on the chip. (EDIT: The "system" typically consists of the CPU, GPU, memory controller and I/O, with slightly varying versions of each platform possible)
That's the very simplified version of it. OMAP and Snapdragon and Tegra have versions, Hummingbird and Exynos, so far as I understand it, are different versions of Samsung's evolving platform.
So, this generations Samsung platform ("Exynos") is likely outclassed by anything from the next generation...the OMAP platforms also have a really good reputation--and for good reason. Personally, I'm thrilled at the idea of a Samsung built next-gen OMAP Nexus device.

I'm thinking this GS II LTE phone is in fact what the Nexus prime will be and I have to say, that display is damn attractive. I'm so confused. NFC, higher res 4.65 inch screen, Ice cream sandwich and google updates, the ultimate nexus phone that will have high developer activity. That freakin display is may be too nice to pass up.

Samsung releases 1.5GHz Exynos processor and 16MP CMOS for mobiles

Samsung's*just announced the newest and fastest version of its Exynos mobile processor. The 4212 is a dual-core ARM Cortex A9 clocked to 1.5GHz, built using a 32mn process that makes it 30 percent more efficient and 25 percent faster than the 4210. Last year's model was capable of many impressive feats, but its 3D abilities were*hampered by the limits*imposed by its HDMI 1.3 controller. The new boy gets version 1.4 and hence the freedom to run stereoscopic imagery at an impressive 70fps. The chips will be available in Q4 of this year, but only to "select customers" who -- we guess -- look after Mr and Mrs. Samsung's cats over the holidays. The chip comes too late for the*Galaxy S II LTE*but we can expect to see it in future superphones before too long.At the same time, the company released a 16 megapixel*CMOS sensor*designed for mobile devices. It can shoot stills at the quoted figure and is theoretically capable of 30fps video at around half that, although we're unlikely to see a device that can record 8 megapixel video in the near future. If you hadn't guessed, "select customers" will get their extra-polite hands on the Samsung S5K2P1 in November, other OEMs will have to wait outside, in the snow. Of course, as everyone knows, it's not about how big your megapixel count is, it's what you do with 'em*that really counts.

It's the 32nm process that's the most exciting part about that news release. It means even if the chip was running 1.2GHz like the 4210 it would still be faster and more energy efficient. @ 1.5GHz the 4212 trades a small amount of energy efficiency for higher clock speed... none the less it's still more efficient than the 4210

New SGSIII Rumor - Super Amoled HD PLUS (non-Pentile) screen

Hot off the rumorpress: http://mobilesyrup.com/2012/04/12/r...4-6-inch-super-amoled-hd-plus-release-in-may/
319 ppi. That puts ppi right there with the iPhone 4S, but on a much larger AMOLED display. If the form factor is sexy, and the rest of the specs line up right, I'm going to have a hard time not throwing my wallet at this device.

I am a huge fan of the galaxy series. Once I got the Mesmerize and now the Epic 4G Touch I have to say I will be a galaxy customer for a long while. All I can say is hopefully it drops soon enough for the price to drop a little but they time my upgrade comes. Unemployment sucks. But based on Sammy's past history I have to believe the GS III will be nothing less then Epic on many levels.

With all of these rumored specs that seem to blow any current phone away... I am so happy my upgrade is in the next few months. Although the price will most likely reflect the quality, I'm prepared to sell my arm and leg for this phone

If and when I dump the S2...The only reasons will be for LTE and Quad Core which is what Ive heard the S3 is supposed to have...I like the Note but the screen is a little too big...Had it in my hand in Best Buy Mobile...But I think Id stick to the 4.7 hopefully what the S3 will have... and stay with Sprint for the Unlimited...

What? only 4.6 inches? I rather get the evo 4g LTE.

Ok, a bit confused. I was pretty sure I read an article that said we won't see quad core phones til 2013? Due to LTE compatibility.

While the exact Exynos 4412 specs are yet to be announced, it is estimated that the new SoC from Samsung will be built using the 32nm manufacturing process and will feature a quad-core processor based on the ARM Cortex A9 (the same architecture behind the Tegra 3 CPU, but Nvidia uses a 40nm process) clocked somewhere between 1.5 – 1.8 GHz. As for the GPU, rumors claim that the Exynos 4412 SoC will feature an ARM Mali-T604. In addition, the 4412 will also feature integrated LTE and WCDMA radios. Please keep in mind that these are only rumored specs.

Bolded the part that is relevant to your question. Nothing is concrete yet, but the Exynos 4412 rumored to be going into the SGSIII may be the first quad core LTE compatible SoC.

not only do samsung make their own screen, they also make it for apple. apple is samsung's second largest customer after HP

The only thing I wish my E4GT had differently is a higher resolution screen. It's going to be awhile before any device makes me want to upgrade. Though, this is pretty lust worthy.

That sold my mother in law. She was going to get the SGSII from NTT DoCoMo until her daughter beat her to it. I told her to hold off a few more months to wait for this phone - glad I did. Now hopefully we'll see this to Sprint and my MVNO sometime next year, right around the time that we're eligible for upgrades! (I can wait a year, 4G isn't bad in Chi-town!)

I read something about Samsung doing a worldwide announcement for all markets, does that mean it'll be available for US carriers (Sprint specifically) when everyone else in the world gets it? I'd hate for the rest of the world to get it in say June and the US gets it a few months later like with the SG2.

I wouldn't hold your breath. Unless both Samsung and the carriers learned from last year and they're getting the carrier differentiation done now with less hang ups. I'm not in a massive hurry though. I still dig my E4GT, and the later the GSIII is released the further along Sprint's LTE rollout will be.

At least the density of the new display will compete with the EVO LTE screen.

With the way they are marketing it, I hope that they release the US versions around the same time. I have a feeling samsung is learning, and is pushing for more unified releases. They know that the sgs2 dominated the smart phone market, so I would assume they also know the sgs3 will attract just as many, if not more customers. Especially with this much hype, and there own event to announce it. I would expect they would be smart enough to get it on as many carriers as they can, as soon as possible.

I always felt it was stupid that theres different release dates for phones based on where you live. And the fact that we were always last made it worst. If they start releasing their phones at once worldwide i think that'll be a good move and every other manufacturer will probably follow in the same direction. At least I hope. There's nothing worse then wanting a phone that's available in another country and not urs..

[Q] Win Me Over: Galaxy Nexus vs Galaxy S2 HD LTE

Hello, lads! 'Names Abdi, and i'm new here to the xda forums. I'm looking for a new phone, done with my S1. After long search, I've narrowed it down to these 2 phones. The Samsung Galaxy Nexus and the Samsung Galaxy SII HD LTE from Bell Mobility. Before we start this face off, let me list some of my requirements for a smartphone:
Need microSD. I have a large music library (over 13 GB).
Need Gorilla Glass.
Need good camera.
As you guys can tell, these are all areas the Galaxy Nexus does not do well in. But here comes the catch, and this may help you with your arguments. The GS2 HD LTE has little developer support. Only 2 working roms on xda right now.
*Keep in mind: The GS2 HD LTE in this picture is not the one I'm looking at buying. This one is the international version. I am looking at the Bell Mobility version. They are basically the same phone, except for a little hardware differences. Same specs and all. Here is a picture of the Bell phone: http://www.technobuffalo.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/20120418_C6680_PHOTO_EN_12455-625x1024.jpg *

Per your requirements, SGSII. GN has not expandable memory.
However, the GN development is huge and its a very important aspect unless your are planning rocking stock firmware.
In any case, I doubt you go through your ENTIRE music library every week, month or whatever it may be. If you're like many, you won't often find yourself re-listening 75% of your library.
Consider Spotify or another streaming service which allows for offline playlists with no commitment to store all your tunes on your device.
Camera-wise. When it comes to mobile phones, the megapixel count hardly ever makes a difference and it should not be used solely to judge the quality. I've found that all modern phones have very similar sensors, so the quality will be more or less the same throughout.
No Gorilla glass on the GN but just get a screen protector for it, it wont hurt anyone.

I have, you do need to turn SR off though since it doesn't calibrate high frequency properly. But every device differs, I may be able to clock it that high, yours might not. Although I don't notice any difference in terms of UI snappiness whatsoever compared to 1.2, the only difference you'll get is higher benchmark scores it seems.

Honestly to be completely serious, yes I know that the processor matters a lot but this is not that much of a difference and the biggest thing is that the gnex doesn't have any crappy skin over it! That Samsung phone probably has touch wiz which will probably make it lag more than the gnex. And of course, you get the latest updates

SR?

SR= Smart Reflex. It is how your phone manages clock speeds and respective voltage for each slot. You can manually undervolt or turn smart reflex on and it will undervolt for you. I think most uses here would say SR is recommended and should be left turned on.

Nexus does indeed look much better than the SGSII. No hardware soft buttons, curved and slim profile.

No, I DONT know what you mean....

It was a reference to updates, and how most devices get left behind.

Sounds mad but I've overclocked my galaxy nexus to 1.8Ghz. So dual 1.8Ghz is quite something!
Is it even possible I don't know. Least what ROM toolbox says.
