Samsung Twitter Account Accidentally Spills Galaxy S II Processor Info?

It appears as though Samsung’s very own @GalaxySsupport Twitter account has let loose the processor that we will eventually find inside the T-Mobile bound Galaxy S II. PhoneDog reader @MedeirosMusic pinged the Samsung Galaxy S Twitter account about the processor only to be told it was a dual-core option. Well that answer didn’t suffice as Julian further pressed the Samsung account for an actual processor and got an answer: a 1.5GHz dual-core Qualcomm APQ8060 processor … [read full article]

Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 With AWS Bands Passes Through FCC

We’ve been calling for the Galaxy Tab 10.1 to land on T-Mobile and with the passing of the tablet through the halls of the FCC complete with AWS bands an arrival is looking better and better.

Samsung Exynos Still A No Go For T-Mobile Bound Galaxy S II?

The question as to which processor Samsung and T-Mobile have chosen for the Galaxy S II has been picking at the back of our minds for quite some time now. The decision not to showcase the device at the recent Samsung event lent further credence to the rumor that Samsung and T-Mobile had opted for a processor other than the Exynos. Well now a Samsung marketing manager has helped further the rumor that the T-Mobile … [read full article]

AT&T Files Formal Response To Justice Department Lawsuit

Someone needs to tell me what is in the water over at AT&T headquarters that they believe a T-Mobile isn’t competitive. While T-Mobile is certainly the smallest of the big 4 carriers, calling MetroPCS and Cricket a larger threat than a company multiple times the size of both Metro and Cricket combined is in my eyes, irrational. AT&T filed a formal response to the Department of Justice lawsuit on Friday arguing that competition in the market … [read full article]

T-Mobile’s September “All Hands Day” Another Day Of Steep Discounts, New Mobile Broadband Product?

While a number of sites have seriously mistaken our story as “evidence” that I am suggesting the iPhone 5 is the cause for this meeting, that isn’t actually the case. For the record, that “suggestion” came in the same sentence as saying T-Mobile found water on mars so I would have hoped that it would have been taken with a little more ambiguity. As it turns out, the sale is pretty much in line with … [read full article]
