Verizon to Launch HTC Thunderbolt & New Samsung 4G LTE Smartphone This February - This February seems to be rich with many a new launch gearing up to happen. Besides the many announcements likely at the Mobile World Congress that will get underway in Barcelona on February 14th, a few other launches also are being lined up during the month. Verizon is making the most of the hot February season, it seems, by bringing to their users two new devices – the HTC Thunderbolt and a yet-to-be revealed Samsung 4G LTE smartphone.
By the end of February, that means post-MWC, Verizon will be launching these two smartphones on their network. Going by a rumor, the two new Android smartphones are expected to arrive on Verizon around the same time.
Verizon has already hinted at this through their marketing documents. While the HTC Thunderbolt will be a smartphone with a 4.3 inch display and a 1.2GHz processor, we are yet to learn what would make the upcoming Samsung 4G LTE device a significant device.
The HTC Thunderbolt will come with Android 2.3 Gingerbread, Qualcomm MSM8960 dual-core processor 1.2 GHz, an eight megapixel camera, and also a front-mounted 5 megapixel camera.
As mentioned, Verizon’s marketing materials have been doing the rounds heralding the arrival of these two smart handsets on their network.
Verizon Getting the Apple iPhone 4 Next Month: It's Official
After literally years of rumors, leaks, and
speculation, Verizon Wireless has just made it official: it's going to
start offering a version of the Apple iPhone 4 in February.
device is going to have a great deal in common with the one that
AT&T began offering last summer, including the "Retina" display
and a front-facing camera, allowing users to make video calls.
3G Not 4G
Despite what some of the early rumors
said, the upcoming version will not support Verizon's new 4G network
which uses the LTE standard. Instead, it will offer this carrier's 3G
service.
Speaking at today's announcement, Tim Cook, Apple's COO, said that
including LTE in this device would have required too many design changes
and slowed the release.
Still, Verizon's version will have a significant difference from
AT&T's: it will include mobile hotspot software, allowing it to
share its 3G wireless connection with other WiFi-enabled computers.
There will be an extra monthly charge for this, though.
But this version will have a drawback: it won't provide simultaneous
voice and cellular data. When on a call, users won't have access to 3G
wireless data services. Wi-Fi connections will still function, of
course.
Verizon's CEO Lowell McAdam spent part of today's announcement event
talking about how his company has increased the data capacity of its
network in recent months to prepare for the launch of the iPhone 4. It
is hoping to avoid the problems AT&T has had meeting customers'
demand for wireless data.
Pricing and Availability
The Apple iPhone 4 is
going to debut from Verizon on February 10. Current Verizon customers
are going to get a chance to pre-order this model on February 3.
There will be two versions: one with 16 GB of storage will sell for
$200 with a two-year wireless service contract, while the 32 GB version
will go for $300 with contract. These are the same prices AT&T
charges.
It will be sold at the 2,000 Verizon Wireless Communications Stores nationwide, www.verizonwireless.com/iphone, Apple Retail Stores, www.apple.com, and at Apple Authorized Resellers.
A Shake-up Is Coming
This one move will likely have a noticeable effect on the entire U.S. mobile market.
The iPhone is the 500-pound gorilla of smartphones, making Apple's
iOS one of the most used mobile operating systems even when it was only
available from AT&T. Verizon has more subscribers than its rival,
potentially more than doubling the number of iPhones on the market.
Over the last year, Verizon has sold millions of Android OS-based
models. It's quite possible that many of these customers will switch to
an iPhone, cutting into sales of devices from Motorola, HTC, and
Samsung.
AT the same time, many analysts have predicted that large numbers of
AT&T subscribers are going to switch to Verizon, as they were only
staying with AT&T to get Apple's popular smartphone.
Additional Details on the Apple iPhone 4
Verizon's
and AT&T's versions of Apple's latest smartphone are virtually
identical. They both runs iOS 4.2 on the 1 GHz Apple A4 processor.
Its rear-facing camera has a 5 megapixel resolution and an LCD flash.
