CES 2011: Samsung Infuse 4G is Slimmest Android

Sports 9mm thin profile, 4.5-inch Super AMOLED Plus display, 1.2GHz Hummingbird CPU and Android 2.2 Froyo AT&T and Samsung Mobile have announced the new Infuse 4G smartphone at a conference before the Consumer Electronics Show 2011 kick-starts. Running Google Android 2.2 Froyo, Infuse 4G shows off its massive 4.5-inch Super AMOLED touchscreen display. The smartphone seems to be the Samsung Galaxy S successor and joins the league of all 4G Network supporting Android devices due for this year 2011.




Samsung Infuse 4G sports a 9mm slim profile and thereby pushes back the LG Optimus Black by 0.2mm. Infuse 4G sports a 4.5-inch display made with next-generation Super AMOLED Plus technology that accommodates 50 percent more sub-pixels for better contrast and readability outside under sunlight.

Infuse 4G houses a 1.2GHz Samsung Hummingbird processor and will run Google Android 2.2 Froyo. Of course, the phone is capable of running Android 2.3 Gingerbread and the update can be expected later. For imaging, this phone packs an 8-megapixel camera that would be capable of recording 720p HD video and also a 1.3 megapixel VGA camera at the front, usable for video call/chat. Supporting the HSPA+CAT14 network, this smartphone promises up to 21Mbps data speeds on 4G networks.

Earlier this week we saw the Samsung Hummingbird CPU in the Nexus S overclocked at 1.2GHz with custom kernel. So it seems like Samsung will be offering 1.2GHz clock speeds only for phones with 4.3-inch or higher display screens. The Samsung Infuse 4G is scheduled to arrive in the second quarter of this year via AT&T network in the US. We can anticipate its arrival on India shores in the second half of this year.
