no one on here will care, you mean. We’re tech snobs so yeah, this isn’t all that important, but I happen to work for a Verizon retailer so this is actually news to me. I understand that phones like the Lucid and Inc 4G don’t matter much to people here, but Big Red and the other carriers need phones like these. Not everything can be a $300 flagship phone.

Actually if you look at the last 5 months or so, not very much has been released on the smartphone end. We’re still selling RAZRs, Nexuses (Nexi?), and Spectrums, and those have been out for quite some time. The GS3 is really the first phone released this year of any significance since the Nexus (no I’m not counting the Lucid or Inc 4G since they’re mid level).

yeah….we do. Although, I tell people to avoid it like the plague even though it’s cheap. I ask one question: “do you like your smartphone to work properly?” When they say yes, I follow it up with “ok, let me bring out a RAZR for you.” Seriously, that thing almost had me swearing off Sammy altogether. The G Nex renewed my faith somewhat after the .4 update. Now I have the GS3 in my sights, hoping the upward trend is still continuing.

How about the Thunderbolt?

If it has a keyboard (like the similarly model numbered Stratosphere) maybe it’ll have a reason to exist. The Stratosphere is Galaxy S-based (the original S) and just needs to be phased out.

It’s probably a mid-range phone, like the Galaxy Reverb for Sprint.

I really think Samsung should avoid using the Galaxy name on anything other than their top devices. They finally established themselves with the GS3 to the average person, and I feel like they’re going to ruin that with other crap.
