New Samsung Superphone named Hercules coming to T-Mobile

The new Android phone named Hercules will have a 4.5 inch Super AMOLED plus display and has very powerful specs.  It appears the phone may be released by T-Mobile sometime in August.  Here is some of the early specs for this smartphone:

• 4.5-inch 480 x 800 Super AMOLED Plus display
• Android 2.3 (Gingerbread)
• NFC support, though compatibility with the forthcoming ISIS mobile payment standard is “to be determined”
• Category 24 HSDPA (42Mbps) and Category 6 HSUPA (5.76Mbps) for extremely fast HSPA+ support — faster than any HSPA+ phone currently sold in the US
• AWS plus 850 / 1900MHz compatibility for support on AT&T’s “4G” network if the merger succeeds
• Preliminary measurements place it at 5.16 x 2.76 x 0.37 inches — within a few hundredths of an inch of the Infuse
• 16GB internal ROM, 1GB internal RAM, external microSD up to 32GB
• Apparently it will have a Qualcomm 1.2GHz dual-core APQ8060 application processor, which is highly unusual for Samsung, especially considering the performance of its own multi-core Exynos line
• 8 megapixel primary camera with flash and 1080p video capture, secondary front-facing camera
• Won’t have a dedicated HDMI port, but will have MHL for HDMI HDTV charging

AT&T changes Android app policy

AT&T has decided to allow its smartphone customers to install applications downloaded outside the Android market.  The new AT&T  Samsung Infuse is the first AT&T phone that is capable of installing apps from a source that is not from the market.  Sometime in the future technical updates will allow all AT&T Android phones to install apps from non-market sources.
