Thank you Samsung for showing off the Nexus Prime. It looks sexy to say the least.

i wonder what is that side sensor with the 3 dots?
or are those supposed to be 3 buttons?

I think it's a docking attachment a la Nexus One. No?

it would be interesting if it replaces the USB connectors
assuming they are actually for a docking station, and not some sensors or 3 buttons

Wow that looks thin.
Please let it come to ATT.

Shows the top end a little better.

Verizon Exclusive is the current rumor, and answer as to why the passed on the SGS II.

WOW, looks magically sexy. Especially the curve. Hope they got a gorilla curved glass unlike Nexus S.

I don't think micro USB will be replaced in the near future as it is standardized in the European Union. As you said it's probably dock connector in addition to the micro USB. Or maybe something radically new.

That looks real sexy! I'm liking the fact that they kept the curved screen. Can't wait to hear all the details.

Hmm if the thicker part is the bottom then it looks like we're looking at the right side of the phone. Maybe the three dots is a sensor-type camera shutter key so you don't shake the phone like you sometimes do when pressing a hardware shutter key?
Would be an awesome concept for still photo taking

Dual-core Snapdragon wouldn't be half bad! Although, most say a TI OMAP dual-core is onboard.

Looks magnificent and just as sexy as the nexus s curves!

The photo shows it has two ‘humps’ on the rear of the device; camera on the right; loudspeaker and radios on the left. The curve of the screen isn’t as dramatic as first thought, it’s actually quite flat in comparison to the curved blue glow that is atop of it. It also looks very Nexus S on the front and Nexus One at the back. Interesting, thanks @xavierdylan

Yes they do make one but it does not attach like that. It's blue tooth and costs a whopping 60 bucks. But if you're still interested I can find the link for you.

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus

If you didn't mind rigging it, you could just break off the edges to the iPhone one (i'm assuming it's generic bluetooth) and then glue it to a generic plastic case. You'd get the slide action at least.

I gave up on this a while ago, if anything they'd make something like this for the most standardized, popular, generic, whatever Android phone out there. So GalNex or GSIII....
The iPhone always has more cases than Android phones, because there's only one iPhone, and I hate that. Plus almost all if not all Android phones are not symmetrical and flat like the iPhone 4+ so something like a slide out keyboard would be...more difficult.

Actually... since we do have *the* Google Phone, you might draw enough support for a Kickstarter project. Charge people $50 or whatever, and get one designed and manufactured.
Take input from the Kickstarter crowd, then make it! No ****, this could be something, I mean if a load of people already do this on KS, why can't we for something we want?
I'm in no position to pursue this, but I'll be your first backer I think. =)

With the next nexus looming I'm not sure anybody is willing to take the risk to mass produce a product for a phone about to be phased out. Wouldn't even come out till mid-2013 if they started now.

There's hope for some kind of jury-rigged thing you could make yourself though. May even work if you have a holster and a thin enough bluetooth keyboard to clip in.
If I wind up ordering a BT keyboard I'll see what I can rig up.

I think I will try to merge a case and a kb when I will have the time to work...

I guess Kickstarting something would be a bit much. I look forward to seeing what you guys conjure up.
Don't forget that clearance is tight between the camera and the hump at the bottom, I don't know if that iPhone one will even fit...

Memory Card Slot? Issue or OCD?

Am I just nit picking or does mine seem like something is applying downward pressure on the plate? I can't slide it straight in, I have to angle it down. It's like I had to work it over and break it in.

Because highly OCD. I replace OEM chargers if someone else plugs their phone in. It's pretty severe. I could continue using it, but I keep back up. I mean stock pile of back ups.

you might not want to do that with this phone, its a 2 amp charger. most are only 1 amp. If you use anything but the one it came with or an oem one your phone will charge slower.

Charging slow isn't a problem. I have all day. The wall charger I keep, it's the cables that I swap.
As bad as I am with all of the above, I keep an arsenal of these.

I got really lucky on ebay and got 2 new chargers, a headset and a new battery for 15.50, all oem.

That is a steal.
I have issues. Maybe. Counted 14 OEM USB charging cables. Have more upstairs on my night stand, my day bag and some for the car. I sold off a bunch.
This is just the S3 stash. I only have one S3. Then there are different styles of Samsung chargers in a plastic bin + HTC and LG stuff as well.

I think the Note 8 inch is more like the Note 10.1 - meaning it's not designed for telephony use. Probably Sammy's intended response to Apple's new offering.

One of the other shots shows clearly that it has, what looks like, a speaker at the top. Just like a phone. Which doesn't surprise me as much as that there is also a huge bezel. I don't see how a phone call could be made on this.

But really where do we draw the line? Why can't larger sized tablets with cell modems also have the ability to make a phone call. I probably wouldn't use it, but it should be there. I gues there shouldn't be a difference between a tablet and phone. Just Android devices with cell modems that come in different sizes.

Ere...How about.... don't buy it? That's the beauty of Samsung, options.

Shame about the screen resolution. Samsung are becoming pioneers in innovation yet the screen resolution is still low. Either way, I'm going to end up buying it.

Yes, there's also an earpiece up top for making calls, as we saw in yesterday's shots. But that's nothing new -- 7-inch Samsung tablets have been doing that since the original 2010 Galaxy Tab.

Realistically speaking....it is a phablet and not a phone...soooo why is people saying that it's too big? the only problems I hav with the device is 1. the camera should have been 8mp. 2. the design should have been a little more innovative instead of looking like a bigger note -__- and 3. What is up with the pixel density? 189? fuh real? At least 260....Anyway besides all those disadvantages I think It's super awesome and one of the best tablets yet....look past the faults and you'll fall in love *_*

I am thinking for an upgrade for Galaxy Tab Plus and this one should be ideal, but it will be used solely as tablet (not phone or hybrid whatsoever). But I want it to have tablet layout not like Tab 2 7.0 JB.

Custom Design Wireless Charcing dock.

I am an indusrial designer. I want to design a wireless charging dock that will hold the N7 at around a 60 degree angle so that while it charges you can have a daydream set up.
I want to design it in Solidworks, but I will need some help on the manufacuring end. If any of you know anyone that can give me a hookup on the manufacturing side, we could do a small run of these, and if it works out on the forums, put it up on amazon. Let me know if you guys know anyone. email: [email protected]

Dive you want it at 60*, add a third leg to make it a tripod. Think of the rear leg from the Microsoft surface. Maybe keep the same two spoke design for it and pivot it off of the center point.

Have the 3 legs collapse on each other (by spinning) and I'll buy one

Would be good if you were able to detach the charging cable from the actual wireless charger. This way its nice and clean look for when you just want to use it as a stand.
Maybe have the third leg come off the center of the wireless charger and have a microusb port at the foot of the 3rd leg where you would plug in the charger cord.

This should be easy to acomodate. I am planning to have small base legs come off the 2 ends and toward the rear, this way you minimize amount of plastic, and still have an adjustable angle and leave the Qi clean at the top. Run the power cable down one of the side to an end and have the power plug plug in there so that cable runs up the base leg.

I want this, as I have been considering the like since replacing my old Nexus 7 with OEM dock for the new one. I used the old N7 on my nightstand as an alarm clock/clock radio, and to stream content to my bedroom a/v system. I used it for the same purposes while traveling as well.
It needs to be stable, like the old dock, and not too deep as there are numerous other items on a nightstand (water, kleenex, phone, etc.).
Looking forward to seeing how this progresses.

Let me know if you need any help with this. I have an engineering background/degree and am well versed in solidworks also.

I saw somewhere (can't remember where) and Qi charger designed to be built into furniture (like a desktop). Just use a hole saw to make the right side hole for it to pop into, so that would get all the electronics out of the way in one chunk.

It would be good to start piecing together the charging circuit.
