Verizon Samsung Galaxy SII (a.k.a. Function) Releasing in July?

[Schmiggy_JK]

I just hope the Verizon LTE version is as thin as the global Galaxy S2. Oh, and please come in white.

I wouldn't count on that considering the size of 1st gen 4G chips. Personally, if its as thick, or a bit less than the bionic I will be just fine with it.

White doesn't interest me in the slightest.

I just wish we could get some damn updates regarding the status of this phone.

Evidence it could ship with LTE and possibly still be thin. Now this is a GSM/LTE foreign version so still doesn't really suggest a CDMA LTE version could be this thin, but MAYBE. It is a VERY strong piece of evidence for the VZW version being LTE though.

At this point I am almost certain it will be LTE even though I have been pretty confident it would be all along.

Considering your distaste for the Bionic are you waiting for confirmation regarding this phone, one way or another?

Obviously, and probably a couple other such similar phones to Bionic will be out before November which would be my actual contract date from the OG Droid.

I like everything about the Bionic, EXCEPT the screen though. It's just such a huge issue it makes the whole phone a no go. I won't buy a product if even ONE singular aspect is inferior to my current phone in my mind and the Pentile screens are inferior to my OG Droid screen as far as I am concerned. I don't need really bright display and that is essentially the only advantage of LCD Pentile. I have to jack the brightness on my phone to something equal to Pentile to get the battery savings and I tend to use it on a pretty dim setting and like it just fine. Even if they were NOT bragging about qHD I might be more apt to ignore the issue and buy the phone. I consider the qHD bragging effectively false advertising and underhanded when the screen looks the way it does do to pentile.

And so....the Continuum is now on Verizon's website as "Temporarily Out of Stock." First the Fascinate was "Temporarily Out of Stock" and then disappeared a couple days later and the Continuum was being offered for free. And now the Continuum is "Temporarily Out of Stock." Hmmmm.....

Please, please be all carriers that day or at least Verizon! I really want some info before the 8th and the rumored date for the Bionic.

Droid Life says the rumor is this won't be coming to Verizon.

I hope this is more a sign they are getting the Nexus Prime.

LOL @ the "robust portfolio" of devices.

I don't see the big deal with them skipping this phone if they pick up the Nexus Prime instead. This is all assuming the Nexus Prime specs floating around the web are true of course.

Nexus S was supposed to be Dual Core, so not sure what to think of 720p? I had figured we would have seen a 720p phone by now at the time just after the intro of the iPhone 4. I was almost certain at the time some Android manufacturer would follow that up real quick with an HD phone and it still has not happened. Doesn't mean it won't happen, but I find this aspect has moved way slower than I expected it too.
