T-Mobile USA has revealed the Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G, the company’s latest Android smartphone and the newest iteration of the long-lived Galaxy S II series of phones. Powered by a 1.5GHz dual-core Snapdragon S3 chip, the Blaze 4G has a Super AMOLED touchscreen and up to 42Mbps HSPA+ connectivity.
Aesthetically there are a few new changes to the Galaxy S II style, mainly amounting to rounded off corners and some extra swoop up at the top rear panel. Samsung and T-Mobile are being coy with the full specs, however, though we’re guessing on an 8-megapixel camera with 1080p HD video recording, a front facing camera for video calls and the usual mixture of WiFi, Bluetooth and GPS.
Pricing and availability are also unknown, with T-Mobile saying the Galaxy S Blaze 4G will be “coming soon this year.” Our guess is somewhere around the $200 mark with a new, two-year agreement.

And what exactly separates this from the existing T989?
Its really a Samsung Galaxy S (original) but with the insides of the Samsung Galaxy S II.
(This is what I have come to understand)
This is the same exact phone as the Samsung Galaxy S 2!! what bs!!!!
It the same size as the galaxy s which is smaller than the s2.
I’m going to bet it has 32gig on board and no SD card.
As vs ours which is 16 on board and then we have a sd card
With room up to 64 gigs.

Heard the screen size was 4.67 inches.
And how is this better than the existing amaze 4g? It has dual core 1.5Ghz, 42Mb 4g and NFC.
I truly hope we can get the galaxy note on tmobile with 4g speeds
The samsung galaxy s II for tmobile has this 42mpbs speed enhancement already…
They are showing that this model will be released with Android 2.3. I would have hoped for 4.0 by now
