Samsung may be dealing with big legal troubles these days, but it does not mean that the company is lagging on the innovation front. The Korean has just raised the bar by announcing Hi-Def mobile phone Samsung Galaxy S2 HD in Korea.
The phone has notable specs as well. It comes with a 1.5 GHz dual core processor and has a spacious 4.65 inch HD screen which is capable of handling 720×1260 pixel, which summarily beats iPhone 4's 960×640 pixel resolution. The phone is a little chunkier than S2, with 9.5 mm thickness. However, it also contains 1,850 mAh battery instead of 1,650 mAh battery packed in Galaxy S2.
And as it is becoming mandatory for new phones, S2 HD also contains an NFC chip, which would let you make payments by just waving your phones. Of coure, this functionality will vary from country to country depending on their service providers and financial services collaborators. Apart from this also boasts of solid 8 MP camera. The phone is also 4G ready, but again, you may not get this functionality until or unless telecom companies in your area have upgraded to LTE.
In the meantime, Samsung also announced that it has shipped 10 million Galaxy SII tablets globally, which indeed is a commendable number. The achievement is also especially good when we consider discontinuation of HP TouchPad and sliding prices of BlackBerry PlayBook.
Samsung has not announced the pricing of the phone. Also, the phone is currently available in Korea only. But guess, we can wait for good things.
