looks really good but it'll have a 5.3" screen and not a <4" either way, nothing looks like the iPhone 5 as we haven't seen any pics of it
 
I was just thinking this...

impressive. a 1280 x 800 WXGA Super HD AMOLED display. comes with a stylus too. this could be a game changer. especially when it eventually gets ice cream. unbelievable.

WTF Samsung. They even copied Apple's traditional style of playing piano in their commercial.

I think you probably could be right. We havent seen the 5 yet but based on the rumours an pictures we have seen there is quite a chance the 5 will look strongly like this with the tappered edges and all.
 
let's hope we'll be able to grab the 1st models before they are banned lol :eek:
 
Holy Moly! That's one big screen.:eek: I want it...:p

Also, I want a dedicated stylus. Many times during the day, I like to jot and doodle. Unfortunately, the iPhone's not going there...:(
 
I had the original Dell Streak 5" phone for few months and would be interested in this.

There are 2 problems I can see. One is the battery life, the Streak was terrible, I think Samsung needs to put in 2500mAh to get decent battery life on a screen that size.

Second is Ice Cream Sandwich is coming out later this year without the physical buttons. It’s a hard choice choosing this over newer phones designed based on the new OS.
 
I'm having trouble understanding how Samsung can fit a 5.3" screen into a case measuring only 110mm x 58.2mm. :confused:

Pythagorean theorem seems to disagree with their figures. :D

The measurements from the announcement are 146.85x82.95mm. I'm guessing they just put the size for a different phone there by mistake.

5.3 inch screen with a stylus.

why would you want that on a phone??
