Thanks to the folks at Phonescoop via the FCC, we can positively confirm that the Samsung I7500 is coming to US shores with the 1700mhz band intact. Having already known the model existed with the AWS bands, the passing of the FCC only intensifies the rumors that this Android goodness will indeed come to our beloved Magenta. Not familiar with the model, hit the video here for a good walk-around the device and some more Android love.

A recent bloggers event held in Korea apparently had a Samsung surprise in store with a hands on look at their first Android phone, the Samsung I7500. For those of who haven’t heard of this phone or didn’t click the blue highlighted link in the last sentence, this phone is T-mobile newsworthy because it has, drum roll please, the ever important 1700mhz 3G band!! The software seen in this video still isn’t finalized but if HTC devices don’t quite make you sing, better give this video a good once over as we do hope to see this device land on US shores later this year.

Now before any of you get to excited, this, the first in the promised line of Samsung Android devices won’t be on this side of the pond if current rumors are accurate. The Samsung I7500 pictured above is rumored to be their very first Android device to hit store shelves and its of course going to Europe first. Sporting a 11.9-mm slim quad-band GSM, tri-band 7.2Mbps HSDPA (900/1700/2100MHz) candybar packs a 3.2-inch, 320 x 480 pixel AMOLED touchscreen, WiFi, GPS, 5 megapixel camera with Power LED, 1,500mAh battery, 8GB of storage (plus MicroSD expansion for up to 32GB more), and a standard 3.5mm heasdset jack. While the US launches are of course still promised in another few months, eager buyers can always scoop one up for that gorgeous 1700mhz band if they are willing to pay what will almost certainly be a heavy price unlocked.
