New Samsung Galaxy SII LTE Variant Shows Up in South Korea; Codename Celox

[dgstorm]

A new LTE version of the Samsung Galaxy SII has emerged from the shadows in South Korea. Supposedly this new variant not only has LTE, but also sports the following "enhanced" specs:

• 1.5 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon APQ8060 processor
• 4.5-inch WVGA Super AMOLED Plus display
• 16GB of internal memory
• A microSD slot offering an extra 32GB
• Gingerbread
• 1750mAh battery
• 800MHz LTE support (at up to 50Mbps upstream, 100Mbps downstream)
• 8MP rear-facing camera, and a 2MP front-facing camera

Considering that the LTE on this device is a different bandwidth than what we see here in the States, (Verizon and AT&T use 700MHz), this phone is probably slated for somewhere else, like Europe perhaps. We will watch this one for any further details.

Thanks for the tip, Tio!

Pretty good sign no?

I doubt the US version will be that aggressive, but if it does then it officially makes the Bionic look sick. In a bad way. Like first time at sea after eating from the sushi bar when the chef has the flu, sick.

All I see is the fact Samsung is cramming another phone down people's throats and have yet to release the first s2 in the US. What a crock. Why didn't they just make the first galaxy $2 with these specs.
