The Samsung Galaxy Nexus went on sale in the UK today, but what about the US version of the device which is headed to Verizon Wireless, and will be an LTE-enabled smartphone?
Verizon has yet to confirm exactly when the Samsung Galaxy Nexus LTE will be available in the US, but Google has just posted a video of the US version of the device, which could mean the launch is imminent.
Features and Specifications
The Samsung Galaxy Nexus is a highly anticipated device, especially because it is the first smartphone to run Google’s Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich operating system. This new OS brings a host of new features and improvements over previous versions, including a redesigned user interface, improved multitasking, and enhanced notifications. The Galaxy Nexus itself boasts a 4.65-inch HD Super AMOLED display with a resolution of 1280×720 pixels, providing vibrant colors and sharp images.
Under the hood, the device is powered by a 1.2GHz dual-core processor and 1GB of RAM, ensuring smooth performance and the ability to handle multiple tasks simultaneously. The phone also includes a 5-megapixel rear camera capable of recording 1080p HD video, and a 1.3-megapixel front-facing camera for video calls. Additionally, the Galaxy Nexus comes with 32GB of internal storage, providing ample space for apps, photos, and videos.
US Launch and LTE Capabilities
The US version of the Samsung Galaxy Nexus will be equipped with LTE capabilities, making it one of the first devices to take advantage of Verizon’s 4G LTE network. This means users can expect faster download and upload speeds, which is particularly beneficial for streaming video, downloading large files, and online gaming. The inclusion of LTE is a significant upgrade over the UK version, which only supports HSPA+.
As soon as we get some sort of official confirmation from Verizon or Google on when the US Samsung Galaxy Nexus is going to be available, we will let you guys know. The anticipation is building, and many are eager to get their hands on this cutting-edge device.
