It would seem that another device has come out of the woodwork. The guys at “This is my next” stumbled upon a new T-Mobile phone that looks as if it could be a variant of AT&T’s Infuse 4G. They also seem to have a complete list of specs for this device which is being called the Samsung Hercules.
- 4.5-inch 480 x 800 Super AMOLED Plus display
- Android 2.3 (Gingerbread)
- NFC support, though compatibility with the forthcoming ISIS mobile payment standard is “to be determinedâ€
- Category 24 HSDPA (42Mbps) and Category 6 HSUPA (5.76Mbps) for extremely fast HSPA+ support — faster than any HSPA+ phone currently sold in the US
- AWS plus 850 / 1900MHz compatibility for support on AT&T’s “4G†network if the merger succeeds
- Preliminary measurements place it at 5.16 x 2.76 x 0.37 inches — within a few hundredths of an inch of the Infuse
- 16GB internal ROM, 1GB internal RAM, external microSD up to 32GB
- Here’s where it outdoes the Infuse: it’s quoted with a Qualcomm 1.2GHz dual-core APQ8060 application processor, which is extraordinarily unusual for a Samsung — particularly considering the availability of Samsung’s own multi-core Exynos line; it’s paired with an MDM8220 modem processor
- 8 megapixel primary camera with flash and 1080p video capture, secondary front-facing camera
- Like the Galaxy S II, the Hercules won’t have a dedicated HDMI port — it’ll move high-def video over Micro USB using MHL
Along with a list of specs it was mentioned that device should make itself known sometime around August. Of course until that time or some leaked internal documents this information is suspect (especially the bit about the processor). Hopefully it’s all true, if so this will definitely be a beastly phone.
