Engadget - We had a pretty clear indication that the Samsung Stratosphere was headed to Verizon soon, and the carrier has now made it official. As expected, the Android 2.3-based phone will be available on October 13th, when it'll set you back $149.99 after the usual rebate / two-year contract business.
Engadget - Once upon a time, in the not-so-distant past, Verizon was still in phase one of its LTE lineup, which consisted of nothing but 4.3-inch slate phones with questionable battery life and very little to stand out from the rest of the competition. Now that we're seeing the second generation of devices coming into the 4G fold, Big Red appears to be pushing choice -- not just in terms of size and feel, but price as well. The Pantech Breakout was the first to, well, break out of the mold, offering a smaller form factor for a much more reasonable cost. It was nothing to write home about, but the fact that it existed gave us hope that we'd see a slew of phones in the same price range, finally making high-speed connectivity a more affordable option.
Engadget - The selection of devices to show off in the Samsung booth at this year's CTIA Enterprise & Applications is a bit meager when compared to previous shows, but we hunted down a pearl: the Samsung Stratosphere.
Im gonna sit and wait for the S-III.
hopefully its 4G enabled. i dont really like phones with qwerty keyboards they seem too bulky.
You may have heard about Samsung Stratosphere, a new Smartphone with 4G LTE support that heads to Verizon, apparently Wirefly accidentally posted a few pictures of the upcoming slider and looks that the device is closer to release. The Smartphone appeared with the Logo of the Verizon on it.
