Nexus Prime

So the Nexus Prime is probably a SGS2 with the 4.65" sAMOLED HD screen? (and overclocked to ~1.5GHz)

Sounds good to me!

and NFC I assume?

Not that it's used for anything atm.

I wish they would just hurry up and announce it. I've been waiting for an upgrade for what seems like an age (my stopgap Atrix isn't all that hot).

Hmmm maybe my Oct 19th upgrade day may have to wait a bit

Me too. My Galaxy S2 is an awesome phone but it's time for something new!

Just FYI to everyone interested in the Prime - The screen will likely feature a Pentile Matrix layout.

That's me out!

Not dealing with those shoddy pink looking greys and weird artifacts on 1 pixel width lines and text again.

I'm guessing the tech isn't ready yet at this size.

just like the galaxy note they are samoled not samoled+.

Now coming to its more exciting brother, the Galaxy S II HD LTE has a stonking 4.65-inch SuperAMOLED (not Plus) screen with 1280 x 720 resolution display (316 PPI), making it rather unique in the Galaxy S II range of handsets. All the other specifications of the device remain identical to the Galaxy S II LTE. The Galaxy S II HD LTE will be sold through three carriers, SK Telecom, KT and LG

kona786 · 26 Sep 2011 at 16:10

unlucky for you then.

Robbo · 26 Sep 2011 at 16:18

Lime green only, really?

kona786 · 26 Sep 2011 at 16:18

C'mon Robbo.

Robbo · 26 Sep 2011 at 16:20

What, nothing would surprise me.

kona786 · 26 Sep 2011 at 16:23

On a serious note - I really hope somehow that the screen on this is not Pentile.

I didn't really notice it that much when I had my Desire - but going back to it now after RGB Stripe it shows up a lot more.

Kreeeee · 26 Sep 2011 at 16:27

Samsung's screen roadmap does seem to involve releasing low quality Pentile screens before releasing full resolution ones in the next generation.

I hope this gets officallised soon! Work and birthday money is burning a hole in my pocket!
